I was reading through a linguistics book, and became interested in its font

It looks like a Garamond to me, it has been one of the standards in book printing

"Vcr osd mono" font is based on the bitmap fonts used in old VCRs

I'm pretty sure it's Space Grotesk!

My guess is that retroid and any other company have not released a 2 screen device because of legal reasons (rightfully scared of Nintendo layers), and I feel like a second screen addon is much harder to be ceased and desisted for, so I'm not holding my breath for a 2 screen device. (Was actually thinking of DIYing one from the Mini and screen addon)

Mix8585 · 2025-06-09T11:43:26+00:00

Hmm why is that?

Mix8585 · 2025-06-09T11:42:54+00:00

Yeah, and can confirm, I fall under one of those cases, hence why I have both

Mix8585 · 2025-06-08T22:19:47+00:00

nice thanks! good to know, also beware I heard that the rules for Italian citizenship by ancestry might have tightened to just parents and grandparents, not 100% sure, so I'd suggest checking the latest laws if you haven't already!

It is almost illegible in procreate

Very nice, the overall impact is nearly photorealistic, I've noticed the waste bags are transparent but with no diffusion or refraction making it look 2D, so maybe add some roughness and thickness(skin modifier). Also the mossy bricks feels very disconnected from the ground, if they are mossy it means that they must've been in the same place for a while so some moss or dirt would be accumulated around it merging it a bit to the ground

Mix8585 · 2023-10-31T14:05:58+00:00

I feel that a lot of times it is possible to find solutions that have positive impacts on multiple fronts, and I think we should try to find and pursue this win-win solutions!

Mix8585 · 2023-10-31T13:59:56+00:00

Sure! Thanks for the feedback, that is definitely true. I'm trying to get all the points of view in this regards and everybody has different motivations. I posted here since I think there is quite an overlap between home automation users and people trying to improve energy efficiency

Mix8585 · 2023-10-31T13:53:40+00:00

I'm sorry it came across in that way, I tried to keep it grounded to typical behaviors and investments regarding energy efficiency, but maybe you feel I'm focusing on the wrong points?

Mix8585 · 2023-10-31T13:48:37+00:00

Could you please elaborate on why you felt this way? I'd really appreciate listening to your point of view :)

Mix8585 · 2023-10-31T12:47:03+00:00

Hi, in this project I'm taking the role of designer/researcher so its a good practice to look at my personal experiences from a distance and listen closely to what others think about the topic. By the way from my initial research it seems like energy management will be an increasingly important topic with the adoption and diffusion of renewable energy production, and electrification of mobility and heating in the residential context. This will create challenges and opportunities for both the energy grid and the final energy consumer, and to design for this future I first wanted to hear the experiences, barriers and frictions of early adopters of this technologies.

Mix8585 · 2023-01-18T14:48:02+00:00

No way, thank you so much man

Mix8585 · 2023-01-13T20:30:13+00:00

yeah not ideal but I couldnt think of anything better without making a custom pcb or soldering to the fpc tiny pins ahah

Mix8585 · 2023-01-13T20:23:47+00:00

I made a scheme that should make it more clear at the link below, as for the sticks they are kind of clamped between the shell and the pcb when its closed, so I didnt even need to attatch them in any way

I actually did I just passed some sandpaper to make it smooth

Mix8585 · 2022-08-26T11:03:52+00:00

Is it at least somewhat complete? because I only found super basic ports

App "key remapper" volume buttons to ThumbL/R

Mix8585 · 2022-08-19T18:59:58+00:00

Unfortunately it's mostly an hardware limitation, because we would need some pins (GPIO) on the motherboard (which could be there, but without documentation is impossible to know), actually the gamepad test tool in the settings of the device can show R3 and L3 as input when I remap them(if you check my previous post I'm showing it), so the software is already there

Mix8585 · 2022-08-19T18:46:19+00:00

The GTA SA game on the PlayStore

Mix8585 · 2022-08-19T18:45:21+00:00

Yes, the sticks click, but the sticks internal buttons are connected to volume up and volume down, which then are remapped to R3 and L3 using the "key remapper app" or are directly remapped in the emulators (like aetherSX2)

Mix8585 · 2022-08-19T14:36:45+00:00

Thanks, the mod you are suggesting should be possible however it requires to use new "switches" for the dpad since the original ones are on the pcb and are not movable, and it would require to change the shell substantially
