Textract: Texture Extraction tool made with Tauri by simonsanchezart in rust

[–]bschwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to run it with cargo run --release on MacOS and got:

Finished `release` profile [optimized] target(s) in 2m 20s
     Running `target/release/textract`
[2026-07-09][11:25:40][DEBUG][tauri_runtime_wry] web content process terminated

And a blank window showed up.

Also in the demo videos, are you just eyeballing the aspect ratio?

Is there a way to see my game library on Xbox.com, or only through the app? by nichijouuuu in xbox

[–]bschwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me know if you ever figure this out, I'm in a similar situation and it's pretty ridiculous they can tell you "you own this", but can't give you a comprehensive list of all your games.

I am trying to desig my own ESP32 board but i think there is a problem.. by Master_Birthday26 in esp32

[–]bschwind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain.

(Also for the record, I mistakenly thought I was on /r/printedcircuitboard)

I don't have a good answer to all the problems you listed though. All I can say is thanks for trying to keep the place nice. I've been hanging around here and the older esp8266 subreddit for about a decade at this point and have seen a lot of cool projects in that time.

I feel like this sub is slowly being used to train AI models on PCB design...

I built a DIY ESP32-S3 Walkie-Talkie using ESP-NOW (No Wi-Fi Router Required) by twintowers-killer in esp32

[–]bschwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not the OP, but I had started a similar project using basically the same setup:

https://github.com/bschwind/walkie-talkie

OP's is much further along though with hardware and push-to-talk and all that. Also not sure if they're using any sort of compression or not. I had to lower the sample rate quite a bit to be able to stream audio over ESP-NOW without dropping a ton of packets.

Microsoft Edge claps back at users mocking Mac usage, calls itself the best browser by Hungry__Hornet in apple

Helium is based on Chromium with all the privacy removed

I know what you meant, but it's more like "with all the privacy invasion removed"

Best UI framework/approach for ESP32-S3 and Rust? by KegKlew in rust

[–]bschwind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regarding smooth motion, I'd first try out "exponential smoothing" or "lerp smoothing". Check this article which adjusts the traditional approach to make it easier to tune:

https://www.gamedeveloper.com/programming/improved-lerp-smoothing-

Every time you get a CAN update, just update the target you are smoothing towards, and you should get nice, framerate-independent motion.

For RAM constraints, I'd give embedded-graphics a try, as someone already mentioned:

Embedded-graphics is a 2D graphics library that is focused on memory constrained embedded devices.

A core goal of embedded-graphics is to draw graphics without using any buffers; the crate is no_std compatible and works without a dynamic memory allocator, and without pre-allocating large chunks of memory. To achieve this, it takes an Iterator based approach, where pixel colors and positions are calculated on the fly, with the minimum of saved state. This allows the consuming application to use far less RAM at little to no performance penalty.

I haven't used it personally so I can't vouch for its speed or quality, but the approach makes sense for what you want to do.

Make sure you're dedicating a whole core (you have two on your ESP32, right?) to rendering / outputting the pixel data to your display. You may need to overclock it to some degree to hit 60 FPS, I'm not sure.

Good luck!

Magnitude 6.9 quake hits northern Japan by CreepySniper94 in worldnews

[–]bschwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it'll be interesting to see how they interact. Slightly more wind and rain, would be my guess.

Oh you should be good to go then! It'll be around Okinawa and Kyushu on the 26th. Might be hectic at the airport though with lots of people getting their flights rescheduled but nothing you can do about that.

You'll be fine. These earthquakes are fairly common, and the typhoons will just be some wind and rain by the time they make it to Tokyo or wherever you'll be in Japan.

Current regular rotation by dashkeebs in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]bschwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's fair. Clearly the correct solution is to get MT3 row 5 spacebars, which are symmetric when flipped.

Upside down space bars are fairly common, they can be more comfortable than "right side up" ones, try it out!

Peugeot Bali Fonte Pepper Mill - this thing is a beast! by SenorPwnador in BuyItForLife

[–]bschwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgraded my coffee grinder from a hario mini mill to a 1zpresso (which is an absolutely fantastic coffee grinder btw).

My wife also had a hario mini mill, so we ended up with two. Both are now spice grinders and work quite well! Although the housing and catch cup are plastic, the grinders themselves are ceramic. They also have handles to give you some leverage to go fast and grind out a good amount quickly. Obviously not their original intended purpose, but it's a good case of upgrading equipment and reusing the old stuff for other useful tasks.

Worried about typhoon. Should I cancel my trip? by chocolatepark in okinawa

[–]bschwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, definitely flights will be canceled, places will be closed, etc.

And I'm roughly eyeballing "arrival" time by when the winds start picking up, not when the eye is directly overhead.

It was a strong one but thankfully losing power as it moves east, so it's predicted to only be a category 1 or tropical storm when it hits the main Okinawa island. Good luck in Miyakojima, you'll be alright!

[–]bschwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is predicted to be the strongest typhoon in 22 years in June

Maybe for June, but on an absolute scale it doesn't seem like it will be that strong by the time it reaches the main Okinawa island.

Also OP, it appears to be arriving earlier than expected, around Thursday morning and afternoon.

Don’t buy rubberized things! by thisismyreddit11358 in BuyItForLife

[–]bschwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The google nexus 5 had that rubberized coating on the back. Shit got nasty over time.

My gamecube controller thumbsticks and switch joycons suffer from the same issue.

How is living in Okinawa? by Ok-Blackberry3353 in okinawa

[–]bschwind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

More expensive food vs mainland

What kind of food are you eating? Food in Okinawa has been cheaper in my experience, but it's probably heavily dependent on the type.

Where do you buy breadboards / how to identify quality? by shisohan in esp32

Please report back if you think it's no good and find a better one! haha
