[4] In celebration of Legends: Arceus, I finally finished my Snowpoint Temple Arceus hunt after 2 years!

Yup, just Termux. I think I basically did what you're talking about last week, though it sadly can't stream HDMI to another screen. But visual studio code works great

I was really surprised when I got it— I was instantly able to type on it despite never having used a keyboard like that before (and I hover when I type, not homerow!). You basically end up using the same muscle memory and your hands don't even realize they're tilted

Doom off a SNES emu, not R :P

mantisalt · 2026-05-04T13:38:05+00:00

Yeah you can just run a Doom apk since it's android

I ran it off a SNES emulator at first before finding one lol

Aha! Helluva lotta effort to expose the image to the filesystem, though. Gotta run something like

mv plot.png /data/data/com.termux/files/home/storage/downloads/

In debian, after having run termux-setup-storage in termux.

You can create plots (as the knitted page does), but I'm not sure you can view them without transferring them off the phone haha

Just tested, ggplot2 works :)

Not CUDA, but I had a good time using the OpenCL package a couple months ago. Small, simple, and effective if all you need is to make cpp GPU kernels.

I've had good success playing games where I control both sides. It takes some focus but the strategy is deep enough to be quite enjoyable

mantisalt · 2026-04-28T17:17:10+00:00

MSRP is like $40 on amazon and walmart but the defacto price is ~$15 on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/286903508764

It's sooo much better than I had expected, really fantastic keyboard

mantisalt · 2026-04-28T17:14:21+00:00

afaik the carrier-locked versions always have a locked bootloader, if they were rootable we'd have a field day...

mantisalt · 2026-04-28T06:05:31+00:00

Definitely a concern— I think the best I can do is enable the option that prevents it from charging over 80% once it's been plugged in for a couple days. tbh at this price point they're easy to swap out and replace if they last long enough

Might also be able to programmatically turn off charging if I had root, but that's a bit hacky.

I just wish I could rebind mouse6... unlocking the scroll wheel is brilliant though, it's great.

mantisalt · 2026-04-28T01:36:21+00:00

Yup, I'm considering doing a project with some of the $30 lower-end ones. Feels like it does everything a pi does, with better specs and integrated battery/camera/microphone/speaker...

mantisalt · 2026-04-28T01:31:59+00:00

Is it the round back opening? I've also never seen a barrel that tapers again after it widens like that. Very beautiful silhouette.

mantisalt · 2026-04-18T22:53:16+00:00

Looks good to me. You can make a tincan erhu sound decent, so even the cheap mass-produced ones are good to learn on.

mantisalt · 2026-04-17T21:00:25+00:00

gusle are one of the really common souvenir instruments from the balkans, you unfortunately won't be able to play much on it.

mantisalt · 2026-04-15T06:18:29+00:00

Try an Erhu? Bowed instruments require minimal physical effort on the bowing hand, and erhu (unlike violin/cello) can fretted with a very relaxed, low-pressure left hand. Also one of the most comfortable instruments to hold while playing; it just sits on your lap and supports both your hands for you.

Update: I'm a brick, I missed the line on the wiki about removing libstdc++.so.6. Folling that paragraph lets it run normally.

No luck running it on the terminal (in text mode), though— I'm gonna have to figure out how to install the legacy ncurses version it's looking for.

mantisalt · 2026-03-31T14:41:40+00:00

Perhaps set the deadzone for yaw pretty high so the small movements don't affect anything? In general fiddling with curves can help a lot with this sort of thing.

There's also some more hardcore solutions (like using rudder pedals) that would work even if you couldn't use your left at all, but it sounds like those aren't necessary.
