Tales of an Assembly

[elvissteinjr]

I can confirm many units to be indeed shipping today. That includes mine so I can now stop being grumpy about the seemingly slightly out of order shipping notices.

 

[Wally]

What is your order number?

 

[Eight Bit]

Very confusing, his shirt says 9 and he's holding up 8 fingers... which is it, 8, 9, 89 or 98? Or 494?

Here's some more info for you https://futurama.fandom.com/wiki/Number_9_man

 

[bzar]

It arrived!

 

[Phlyra]

It arrived!

MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS TO @EvilDragon and everyone who has worked so hard to bring the Pyra to fruition!

 

[ClockworkCoder]

Awesome! Although I'd personally prefer if photos of the box/contents were marked with a spoiler, at least for the next two months

Photos / videos of the Pyra in action are more than welcome though

Oh, and congratulations @bzar !

 

[matzesu]

Also from me congratulations,
The Box looks quite cool, although a Spoiler would be a good idea..
Im happy that im not the one who leaked the Box Design..
My Unboxing Video will be in a Spoiler Tag.., but i want to make multiple Video anyway: Unboxing, then some Pictures for the Boards, and after i got used to the Pyra and made the steps to have the full OS working (the Joy of the First Start Wizard) some more Video...

The attach menu didn't have a spoiler option, maybe if I'd linked to an externally hosted picture?

Sorry for the spoiler but I guess it's too late now

Spoiler: Spoiler

Its on the Browser Site under the : the Eye who was blocked
I would suggest eveyone wo post after Pyra Arrived only use Pyra

 

[sebt3]

Also, apparently @sebt3 is still alive. Very important, as he did some work designing the dbp repo.

I've said I would maintain the thing, i'll stick to this

And dit you already put it in your Pocket?

Shoulder buttons are nice and clicky. The keyboard feels really nice. Charging seems a bit wonky but that was to be expected. Going to take a while to set up my usual environment so haven't tried any games yet.

Can't seem to do so on mobile with the attach files doodad. I mean I can embed it in a spoiler tag, but it still shows up under the post as an attachment. I'll try a bit later on a desktop

 

[matzesu]

Ok makes sense, although I don’t have a plan what to expect from the Debian that is on it,
Do whe have this „Software Center“ like on Ubuntu, or is everything over apget?

[bzar]

I added the box picture into another thread. Have fun if you don't want surprises: https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/threads/pyra-pictures-spoilers.99294/

Wonky how?

 

[TrashyMG]

Likely the reported issues dealing with heat and charging, likely throttling charging due to heat while running. Something to look at when I get home from work and start playing with mine.

Try plugging the charger into the usb3 micro port (the one next to the blue port, you can plug a normal microusb plug into the larger side (probably upside down if it's anything like mine) ). That seems to behave a little better.

Been using that one (and yes it's upside down). Sometimes it blinks the power led a minute or so, then starts charging. Dmesg says HOT every now and then which I assume is the culprit. I'll try to get the battery full once before doing much else to have a better basis for testing.
