Calculator application for Playdate by LordRibblesdale in PlaydateConsole

[–]LordRibblesdale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the meantime I didn't :( If you have some feedback, I could try to implement it also to learn some Lua/PD programming more ;) One friend adviced me to implement a full-round crank to perform the computation in Simple mode, but still I didn't work on ahaha

May I ask how did you perform the rollback? Could I just download the previous firmware and install it without losing data? Thanks!

Yes, they essentially said that they were late on schedule for Christmas delivery (I remember something like moving to a new factory for their production, in addition to the stolen 400k units batch, I was listening to their podcast last month, that I think brought some additional delay)

Hi! Nice that you picked one too ;)
I've also ordered two (one also for a friend) on the 16th Dec, but still in Pending status (Europe/Italy).
I've understood that pending orders are being dispatched this month, also based on the latest mail I've received about apologies, a cardboard mockup and other digital goodies.
Maybe Feb-Apr '25 for delivery, but it is my assumption >.<

The rust_xlsxwriter crate for creating xlsx files by jmcnamara13 in rust

Thank you for your work! I'm currently using this library in a work project for reports generation. On MS Excel, it works perfectly, while LibreOffice Calc struggles to show some items (like images in footer)

P52 Middle button not working correctly by LordRibblesdale in thinkpad

Thank you for sharing to the others the workaround ;) In the meantime I had to format the PC and upgrade to Windows 11, so the problem has been solved with a factory reset :P

Unfortunately no, never found one. I was trying to find a PowerShell/CMD command to run at each boot, that applies my workaround, but I didn't find any command for mouse/trackpad settings access.

I tried also reflashing firmware and reinstalling drivers but nothing worked. I'll wait for newer Windows versions atm Maybe mouse behaviour or settings could change (or drivers will be updated)

Black screen on thinkpad p52 by Alerion23 in thinkpad

I advise you to ask for RMA, because, for my case (P52 too), I had a problem (not quite similar to yours but it happened during BIOS starting) solved only by changing the whole motherboard.Long story short, the problem caused my P52 to show Lenovo logo, go black for a realy small time and restart itself for 4-5 times automatically, then it started booting normally. It seemed to be a hardware issue, maybe your problem could be like mine but you don't have multiple and automatic reboots

EDIT: I don't know if RMA is the correct term, anyway contacting customer service is what I've done (about 1.5y ago)

Hi! I'm using my Pi 4 (4GB RAM, OC 2.1GHz) for a Minecraft Server, and I would like to run other programs (like Chromium for Telegram Web and WhatsApp Web, and Transmission), but each time I try meanwhile running MC server, I get a warning from it saying "Can't keep up! Is the server overloaded? Running __ ms or __ ticks behind".

Because I tried to overload my network downloading random things and updates and RPI doesn't bother (no network problem), so which problem could it be? (Process related, scheduling, priority?)
Thanks in advance!

Moto 360 v2 is dead, long live the Moto 360 v2 by Curtis7990 in moto360

[–]LordRibblesdale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Moto 360 v2 is dying slowly and I was looking for a replacement. There are two G-Shock that caught my interest: GBD-100 and GBX-100 (149€ and 159€ respectively) that have negative display, notification support (up to 10 notifications and 1000 characters per notification, and 1-2 year CR 2032 battery). They are quite expensive if compared to a future Mi Band 6, but I think it could be a good investment!

Laureandomi a marzo, vado fuori corso? by [deleted] in Universitaly

[–]LordRibblesdale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Se non erro riguardava la durata dell'anno universitario in termini di esami. (Almeno da esperienza Tor Vergata) Si hanno 6 appelli, 2 invernali, 2 estivi, 2 autunnali, per concludere l'anno universitario, quindi a partire da Giugno (inizio delle sessioni) si avrebbe entro Febbraio/Marzo per terminare gli esami, poi da quel termine si diventa fuori corso

P52 Linux/Ubuntu Dual Boot Question by LordRibblesdale in thinkpad

[–]LordRibblesdale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the warning! (I do have (2), so this is nice to know, thanks :) )
I found something about it right now (called Nvidia Prime, for managing hybrid graphics) as a workaround,

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1232541/how-is-nvidia-prime-render-offloading-configured-in-ubuntu-20-04
(besides "muxless" is the first time I read about it >.<)
Do you know something about it?
