grimmware | minute: congrats! | 00:08 |
josch | or purple aluminum! :D | 00:08 |
grimmware | I can't really believe the rate at which you get these things done! It's amazing | 00:10 |
ch | cant really order another laptop now :D | 00:12 |
grimmware | heh, same unfortunately | 00:12 |
ch | with the thermal pad the qualcomm wifi is really good | 00:28 |

staticbunny | ohh hell yeah! i ordered one yesterday. Also heard back from support about my charge board. | 17:51 |
andypiper | oooh excited if they are coming sooner than 2 months! | 17:52 |
staticbunny | unrelated question... what slot type does the motherboard use? curious if my jetson would work | 17:53 |
minute | staticbunny: unfortunately no standard. only the cm4 semistandard is currently adaptible via RCM4 | 17:55 |
staticbunny | hmm ok, it just looked like the same dim type and wishful thinking on my part. https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/learn/jetson-orin-nano-devkit-user-guide/hardware_spec.html | 17:55 |
minute | staticbunny: nope | 17:56 |
staticbunny | actually it would be cool if someone made an adapter that supports the turingpi modules (260-pin SO-DIMM ) https://docs.turingpi.com/docs/turing-pi2-supported-compute-modules | 17:57 |
_hramrach | there was something about the ix industrial cables, is there any plan to list them in the shop? | 17:59 |
minute | staticbunny: adapter from dimm to dimm are not really feasible | 18:00 |
minute | _hramrach: yes prob next week | 18:00 |
staticbunny | damn, well at least we have the RCM4 | 18:00 |
ryukazou | minute: is there a plan that pocket reform charging board would be available in mnt shop? | 18:06 |
staticbunny | lol valid question | 18:06 |
staticbunny | "ill take 3" | 18:06 |
ryukazou | Some issues I saw in community forums still got me paranoid when I charge pocket reform. | 18:10 |
staticbunny | yeah mine let the magic smoke out. I'm sure if yours is working fine you have nothing to worry about | 18:12 |
staticbunny | i ordered an anker PD charger and it works better than my steamdeck and apple chargers | 18:13 |
staticbunny | i need to turn it on twice with the apple and steamdeck PD's | 18:14 |
staticbunny | minute: is that a known issue or should i submit a bug for that? i should be running the latest firmware. | 18:15 |
minute | ryukazou: at some point yes! | 18:17 |
minute | staticbunny: the turning on twice is some weird bug that i also encounter often, but is not filed. i don't think it's related to chargers. more like kbd/sysctl communication thing | 18:17 |
ryukazou | staticbunny: I use Dell 60 watt charger seem work fine. | 18:18 |
ryukazou | minute: thanks for the reply. I feel better. | 18:19 |
staticbunny | ahh interesting ok | 18:19 |
_hramrach | I use some noname multiport charger and it works fine as well (it says it can deliver up to 105W per port, up to 200W total) | 18:21 |
staticbunny | i got the Anker Prime Charger, 100W | 18:22 |
staticbunny | just so i dont have to share chargers | 18:22 |
ryukazou | pocket reform is really build like a brick, mine dropped on my face hour age when I laying on bed and play some ghouls 'n ghosts. I hurt a lot. | 18:22 |
staticbunny | i love mine, i kept telling my fiance it was coming in the mail lol | 18:23 |
staticbunny | DO YOU KNOW WHAT TOMORROW IS?!? | 18:24 |
staticbunny | it takes some getting used too but once you learn the keyboard its amazing | 18:24 |
ryukazou | I’m going to 3D print a grip to use pocket reform like gpd win mini | 18:25 |
staticbunny | ooooo thats a great idea | 18:26 |
staticbunny | i really hope the pocket hits critical mass and gets a lot of mods | 18:27 |
ryukazou | I do catch some eye when I use mine in office | 18:29 |
ryukazou | They do consider the price and I told them because is a small batch product so it would be expensive than mass produced product. | 18:32 |
+ sevan (~sevan@2001:470:1f1d:1d6:5a55:caff:fe24:ed4) | 19:03 | |

ryukazou | Nvm, there is a page about reform on Gentoo wiki | 19:05 |
staticbunny | its also a long term investment product. you buy it with the intention of continually upgrading it. Someday my my pocket reform will have a holograph display and quantum module addon for syncing data | 19:06 |
minute | :D | 19:07 |
jfred | I would enjoy if someday my pocket reform had a reflective LCD, haha. I wonder if that would be plug-and-play if I could find one in the same form factor that had an eDP input | 19:25 |

minute | jfred: pocket display interface is mipi, not edp | 20:10 |
jfred | minute: oh, right - I was looking at the big reform's specs | 20:12 |
jfred | (that said a reflective LCD on the big reform would be neat too haha) | 20:13 |
jfred | especially since you can potentially power the thing directly off a solar panel if you're using it outdoors... | 20:13 |
jfred | minute: I don't know much about either protocol but from posts I'm finding online it sounds like mipi requires more display-specific work to get a new display working than edp; is that about right? | 20:28 |
minute | jfred: that is correct, edp is mostly plug&play | 20:48 |
minute | when designing mipi dsi they forgot something like EDID in it and also requires ridiculous amounts of custom command poking that is different for each panel... really the worst display interface ever made | 20:49 |

ryukazou | I find a 10.1 inch mipi display from RAYSTAR, wonder whether it work work on pocket reform? | 21:25 |

minute | also, low resolution | 21:27 |
ryukazou | minute: if I’m not wrong, pocket reform use screen from nexus 7 right? | 21:28 |
minute | ryukazou: nexus 7 version 2 | 21:28 |
ryukazou | I think I will stick with original screen, writing a driver is outside my knowledge. | 21:31 |
minute | ryukazou: also, how would you want to mount a 10 inch display? | 21:33 |
minute | that would require a totally different case | 21:33 |
ryukazou | Yeah, 10.1 inch is way too big | 21:39 |
ryukazou | Just measure it | 21:39 |

ryukazou | LT070ME05000 screen is surprisingly easy to find | 21:51 |
staticbunny | an OLED would be nice | 21:52 |
ryukazou | I know a company making 30 fps e-ink display call Pixel Qi but it’s only 1024 X 600, I saw this at computax few years ago. | 22:01 |
Twodisbetter | honestly a touchscreen would have been perfect for me. Just would allow a lot more ways to interact with things in quick fashion | 22:01 |
jfred | ryukazou: pixel qi is unfortunately defunct | 22:07 |
jfred | RLCDs aren't new but I haven't been able to find a 12.5" eDP one for the big Reform | 22:08 |
ryukazou | That is sad to heard | 22:08 |

jfred | these folks are doing a tablet with a black and white RLCD that looks pretty nice, wish I could buy a 12.5" version of their display: https://daylightcomputer.com/ | 22:09 |
ryukazou | This looks amazing | 22:12 |

jfred | I know there's probably more money to be made in selling full-fledged devices, but retrofit kits for things like the Reform and Fairphone would be great. good reasons for modularity :P | 22:18 |

aperezdc | there's also https://www.modos.tech/blog/modos-paper-monitor | 22:18 |
aperezdc | well, in development | 22:19 |
jfred | yeah, that one's got impressively low latency for an e-ink display | 22:21 |
jfred | 6-inch and 13.3-inch though... drat, one's slightly too small for the pocket reform and the other's slightly too big for the normal reform XD | 22:22 |

ryukazou | Modos is fantastic, I would definitely get one if they release portable monitor option. | 22:27 |

jfred | ...hmm, maybe you could disassemble one of the existing Reform LCDs and replace the backlight with a reflective film | 22:40 |

jfred | oh, huh. companies just sell this stuff https://3dlens.com/transflective-polarizer-film.php | 23:07 |
minute | jfred: neat | 23:11 |
jfred | I might need to find some sacrificial LCDs to play around with and give this a try | 23:16 |
minute | keep us posted :D | 23:28 |
