RFC 2232, in case you need standardized details of how to implement DHCP via clothespins on devices without automated DHCP client software or compatible DHCP server software:

@lexbailey i doubt it! sadly whatever remaining pocketchip communities there are seem completely dead. i think i'm the last person interested in this dead hardware
i guess i'm the only person who knows how to do this now https://github.com/Lana-chan/touch2mouse
@lexbailey i guess yeah "let's standardize ALL touch panels!" but i still think "let's make touch panels that are meant for single-touch fire the same events as a multi-touch capacitive panel" screams "i'm a software engineer and i have never touched a hardware"
@lexbailey Also touch events are meant for fucking multi-touch it should have no business being shoved into resistive touch screens in the first place
@lexbailey but like, it's not like it's A Bug that was exploited. i fully expect that if i'm touching a desktop application for it to generate desktop application events. sorry that i'm using software from before Touch was a Thing
@lexbailey it kinda is and kinda isn't! rtp (Resistive Touch Panel, from the device-tree, which is nigh unsearchable thanks to Real-time Transfer Protocol) used to fire off mouse click events and now it fires "Touch Begin" events. breaking Literally all software made for older kernels which means closed-source software such as pico-8 will Simply not work with your Shiny new Kernel
@lexbailey i saw 1 (one) post mentioning uinput and it linked to a githup repo to it that was last committed to like 11 or 12 years ago and i dismissed it as "there's no way this is going to work today". it fucking Reeks that i have to write my own C code to fix this regression introduced in the linux kernel
linux the most customizable operating system in the world #stopusingwindows "can i make my hardware behave the way it did in a previous kernel without having to downgrade the kernel" No shut up you will use open source software the way we want you to and you will like it #forkoff
