accidentally dropped my pocket reform on the floor at home (in sleeve). luckily the floor was not damaged
little teaser from yesterday's prototyping with @npub12gl2...frt9 image
posting from my MNT Reform Next. it's pretty good now if i may say so :3 now how to ship this
cyberdeck :D image
made an unfortunate mistake with the pinout of this last minute part number changed GPIO chip, so had to deadbug it 😵‍💫
today i'm using the Olive video editor for my current cutting project (a subproject of MNT Reform Next sleeve, yeah), and so far it's a lot better (faster! playback is instant!) than the other editors i've tried, even if it's at version 0.2.0
current state of things (MNT Reform Next)
oh, got another green tinted PCB photo from JLC for MNT Reform Next's right-hand port board (to confirm parts placement). this one has a lot of superspeed USB going on, including a TI hub and a reclocker/redriver. plus a less exciting HDMI port. here i'll solder in a chip and 2 mid-mount connectors myself to save time. image
i'm debugging why microsd express card (pcie) doesn't link in latest 2 reform next board revisions. refclk on the slot pins looked like this: not good, big emi spike frequency disturbing it... (the clock signal is the yellow "sausage" in the middle, 100mhz. at least it tries to be)
am i holding this wrong or is typing into a gitlab issue text really consuming like 1MB of memory per keypress image
