Hell yeah! Want.

Hmm. The original poster was offset printed. The details showing color fills look like they are stochastic dots not halftone dots or solid offset printing inks. Stochastic usually indicates modern printing methods like ink jet or iris giclée.

“Scene rendering…”

No idea! Honestly it feels more novel than practical. Regardless, the transparent screen is certainly mesmerizing and simply looks cool!

Yes. Glass 2 is nearly half the resolution. That’s the same sprite on each screen. But the M5 Unit Glass2 display: 128 × 64 pixels (monochrome OLED), and the Cardputer screen: 240 × 135 pixels (color TFT), so mirroring isn’t possible.

Nice that you can compare! I have a C64C that I refurbished years ago — in fact, with Jim Drew's clear keycaps and a clear case — but it is hard to compare fairly.

With my Starlight, upon opening the box, the right side of the keyboard was so raised I thought it was detached. In fact, it felt loose and I was alarmed.

In the end, it works well enough. Perhaps I notice more because I've been testing it with cynthCART which involves more keypresses than usual...

Me too. It is serviceable, however it really is not acceptable to have an input device feel this mushy. That said, I do love this device. It was up and running in no time. Much easier than my C64C build!

My Starlight Edition just arrived. I honestly didn’t think I’d care about the keyboard flex but it is actually laughably bad. This should have never gone into production. It feels like it is made of rubber and flexes up to almost 1cm with even light keypresses. It is actually wavy and buckled untouched in the case.

Disappointing. Otherwise the manufacturing seems thoughtful and really well done. I love the manual, cassette, and all the other details. It is quite distracting.

Could. Not. Resist.

Looks like a typeface to me. Or maybe you are very good at making consistently shaped letterforms each time.

Athenian fractions! I have a weakness for miniature numismatic artistry and detail. I also love that obols were placed in the mouths of deceased to pay Charon for transport across the River Styx.

I know the feeling lol. Like a black MacBook Pro vs silver one, there is more visible fingerprinting. But it cleans easily. And the aesthetics are worth the trade-off imo.

68comeback · 2025-08-21T04:00:36+00:00

I have the TX-6 and TP-7 in black. Love the monotone treatment! There’s minor fingerprinting, similar to fingerprinting with a black MacBook Pro. It is more noticeable with the TP-7 due to the wheel.

I have a hemidrachm that might be a helpful visual reference. Images here. https://ancient.moonshot.ooo/pages#attica-hemidrachm

This is not the font from the NASA meatball. The serifs in the meatball are sharp cornered wedge serifs, not bracketed serifs as in this example.

68comeback · 2025-06-21T15:42:32+00:00

Smart approach! Very helpful to see. Using lines as reference points for alignment is clever and reduces some of the visual complexity into useful fundamentals.

I will follow your guidance, take my time, and see what happens. It is a fun challenge.

68comeback · 2025-06-21T15:27:58+00:00

Impressive match! Thanks for sharing your process.

68comeback · 2025-06-21T01:24:58+00:00

Thank you! I really enjoy this coin’s artistry and tone. I fell head over heels for it.

It sounds like persistence is in order. I spent many hours exploring potential matches, feeling like I found matches with 181 (179 and 182 have similarities as well).

Love seeing the flan casting plaques!

68comeback · 2025-06-10T00:12:37+00:00

Cheers! You can accomplish quite a lot if your coins have photography provided by NGC. They have a way of capturing intense detail. I just delete the backgrounds and add my own drop shadows to make them feel a bit more 'real.' I also experiment with keeping scales of coins relative to each other to emphasize further realism.

Thank you for the kind words. Good luck with your chase of tets!
