@anna they're like regular furniture drawer bumpers i got off AliExpress (so i could get them in colours), i can't take credit for the idea of doing that though, i saw someone else do it on the next thing co forums before they went down
@anna the tactility isn't so bad, the problem is how hard they are to register... like a flat membrane keyboard like on the zx81, or one of those keypad membranes some Arduino kits come with... the metal dome makes it slightly clickier but without leverage it's really hard to press
someone designed a 3d printable shell with individual keys that are designed to swivel with a bump to press the domes, but i didn't have access to a printer big enough when i got this so i just used the bumpers
@anna the screen is only 4.3" across. paw for scale
@anna it's really only impressive if you:
- know the original pocketchip is 480x272, mine is upgraded to a 800x480 panel (everything is hard to read in person too, now)
- know the original pocketchip is kernel 4.4, mine is upgraded to 5.14 thanks to the efforts of someone on reddit
the keys have rubber bumpers on them because stock they're just bare metal dome buttons. the added height gives them a lot more leverage to make them slightly more bearable. and it makes it prettier like you said :)
(and if i get it running on this kernel there's no guarantee it'll work on the stock 4.4 kernel)
i have never used tic-80 but someone asked if the pocketchip can run it and now i'm half-tempted to try compiling it but their cmake system seems like a mess
yeah no shit i don't want to release my code, with the attitude they have after i say i won't
people (generally idiots) are so willing to overlook all of your open source contributions the moment you want to keep 1 (one) project closed source
@wildweasel across the board from it is an audio amp powering a hacked internal speaker :P
the old screen on my pocketchip died, so i got a replacement and upgrade, almost double the resolution!
all it took was uhhhhh don't look in the back

Watching any non-Sportsnet baseball broadcast really shows how all the other teams' broadcasting teams fucking suck. They can't even get players names right. Half the time they're not even showing game footage, they just cut to the guy making food at the park.
just because i'm a person doesn't mean i'm human
every time gringos write the programming language Lua as if it were an acronym uma brasileira fica puta
when will they make a racing game where you can fuck the car
