Oh, and I just head about the fork that reached 1.0 recently. Not that I use it or Zed in the first place, but I’m glad people have options to escape enshittification!

Same! I even manage three different configs with the same flake!
Keep a sand bucket nearby, just in case :)
That looks like a battery protection PCB, yeah. It usually does three things:
- over voltage protection
- undervoltage protection
- overcurrent protection
- reverse polarity protection
Bypassing it would be a bad idea, but it’s also pretty rare they fail. Maybe it’s just in undervoltage protection mode. Try to hook up your variable power supply with 4.2V and a 50-100mA current limit to the battery tabs (check polarity!) and see if the cell takes current. Above 3.6V the battery protection should lift and you should see voltage on the battery output terminals.
By the way take a look at dockform for docker deploys, it’s something I’m keeping an eye on since I use sops to encrypt secrets.
Last I heard he was in the space-time continuum, and may or may not be missing a couch…
Back to classics: I’m listening to “The moon is a harsh mistress” by Heinlein. After that I’ll go back to the Terry Pratchett saga, which definitely scratches the Douglas Adams itch
I liked all books in the series, but found the ending a bit disappointing..
Man, getting accepted by Polaris was fun!
With displays like these, it’s either parallel or SPI. Try to find a chip in the kapton circuit, that is the actual display driver.
Try to find out the FPC pinout, there should be two pins for backlight, find out of there’s any GND, etc… my gut says this is some kind of SPI based controller, 24 pins is too little for a parallel one.
I have a macropad8, it’s nothing special, it works, the provided “case” is somewhat lacking (just two sheets of lasered acrylic with spacers), but there are 3d models for better ones online. I appreciate the fact that everything they do is released as open hardware though!
