@mavica ah right, if the channels are fine it's deffo the plastic on top

can't think of a way to fix that off-hand

well, unless you very carefully paint the top leaving gaps where you want the light to come through but that'd be a massive faff

@mavica yeah, it's probably mostly that but I know some of the cheaper 7 segment displays have some bleed on them

@mavica depends on if the fuzziness is due to the display or the plastic in front I think, putting an opaque sheet with cutouts in between might help a bit?

@mavica ooh, cool

I've always thought LED displays on watches should make more of a comeback

@mavica *snug*

@LaserScheme taskwarrior

it's a command line program but it's really quite neat for things like that

@mavica not even slightly

damned horrific things

tired: internet of things
wired: internet of little robot arms that you can control through a web browser and press buttons on things with from a distance

@mavica given I have no android knowledge my immediate idea was to rig one of those little robot arms to a raspi along with a webcam, give the arm a stylus, and control it that way

which is possibly the most ass-backward way of controlling it possible and not even slightly what you're looking for but I'm fond of the concept

@sydneyfalk nintendo should have kept the n64 controller design around, humans wandering around with three hands!

who drinks only 3 cups a day?

@Anke yeah, my semi-regular "omega quit it with the special editions and just make something new" toot

@lunalapin huh, that's a way of looking at it I hadn't considered

I'd always look at it being a set of documents, all of which apply except when contradicted by a later document in the set, rather than as a single document
