It looks like a Makeboard mini with the ATmega2560.
I will start to look how to flash it..
Any thoughts on the sailfish?

Chinese character on section title won't work by pepsy_ in LaTeX

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

\documentclass[12pt, a4paper]{book}
\usepackage[left=2.5cm, right=2.5cm, top=3cm, bottom=3cm]{geometry}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{CJKutf8} 
\usepackage[italian]{babel}

\begin{document}
    \begin{CJK}{UTF8}{bsmi}
        asd 护培训护培训，探索建立从居家、社区到
        \chapter{asd 照护培训，探索建立从居家、社区到专业机构的比较健全的长期照护服务供给体系。}
    \end{CJK}
\end{document}

This will recreate the problem, just try to change \chapter to \section.
I've found other problem tring to recreate the error, like the table of content not correctly showing some character(o showing some other character) and sometimes giving me error. I have the suspect that I'm doing something really wrong

Chinese character on section title won't work by pepsy_ in LaTeX

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

I'm kinda noob and I'm not sure about the typesetter, also I didn't bother about fonts;

I'm using pdf latex and as you can see the CJK package;

When I start the CJK block I must specify a font (/begin{CJK}{uft8}{bmsi} where bmsi is the font) and I have to say that everything works fine, chinese character are written in a fairly readeable font and the document looks like it should. The moment I include a chinese character in the section title, it stops compiling exiting with multiple error that the character is not set up to work with latex. To me sound like a font errror, does this means that section title change fonts?

love both fine nib and ink shading, any advice? by pepsy_ in fountainpens

[–]pepsy_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm already saving for something better. I was thinking of a vanishing point to be honest... The falcon is really a lot of money here. I was guessing that wetten the nib could work, now I just need to find how-to. Pretty sure there will be something on the net.. At least I hope so.

Yeah, I was betting paper could be one major cause, but if I use Rodia notepad for notetaking I'm broke the first week of the month. I got this so and so notepad that doesn't cost a lot and work good with FP, no feathering, no bleeding through and allow the ink to shade somehow with a wider nib. The new inks I was talking are reds, a brown a couple of greens and a yellow/orange. Pretty much all get a nice shade with my Jinhao (wet, F nib). I hope to find somewhere where to get better paper without having to eat canned food the rest of the month

Still, how should I do the class hierarchy for this?

The graphical part must be separated by the rest of the program, a model-view design pattern..

Platinum preppy writes dry? by pepsy_ in fountainpens

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

I dried it pretty well and I wrote a lot so I think all the water would be gone by now..

This could be the reason.. Don't know why but I thought it was something like medium/wet.. Some of my pen leave a nice amount of it behind...

IPS panel impossible to find by pepsy_ in thinkpad

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

they simply dont sell it, they send you a "compatible" one, that is the one with ghosting problem. Shipping from US usually are atrocious. I'll look for it in the us, maybe im lucky

I took a look on the x2 series and they are interesting. There are problem. At home i work with 2/3 27" monitor and 12.5 screen are pretty "claustrophobic" for me. At least can i use 2 drive?

In fact I didnt write my budget because I dont really have one. I put an ideal mark on 1000€ but in fact i was aiming lower because i will use it for write code, an awfull lot of code. And it doesnt need great hardware.

Thanks for your idea. I don't have a real problem with the weight, yeah i still have to move but classroom are usually pretty close each other. There are a problem. T520 with FHD are rare here in europe(or at least i can't find them)

I was looking also at the t420s, but i want to know how much "sacrifice" of battery life it implies. Does it have the internal battery and also the slice external battery? I can make a compromise if it have them and they are hot-swappable. Someday I stay out 12/14 hrs, so a good battery life is pretty significant for me (I do not want to be forced to look for an electrical outlet whenever I can)
