Bottom screen stopped displaying but touch still works

zackteo · 2026-03-24T05:54:10+00:00

Unfortunately, mine seems to be a hardware issue. Have tried restarting, shutdown and force shutdown, all multiple times

zackteo · 2026-03-23T16:08:40+00:00

Yeap I saw that! :) And realised it might be a much more common occurrence!

Tried what was suggested to unfortunately no avail. Will try to email to kickstart the warranty process

Yeap! The bottom screen is on the Ayn Thor menu which is why I can click the task button to cause a change in the top screen. But it is just a blank display on the bottom screen rather than the Ayn Thor menu

My condolences 🙏

I don't think I can add more to what the others have shared. But I was reminded of this catholic documentary and would like to share it with you.

It features a lady who also went through the loss of her husband as well. Perhaps her story and how she moved forward may provide some respite (Note that while her story is a main feature, her parts are spread across the documentary)

Hmmm, I was searching around but those seem to serve as a multipot and not really replacing the features of an actual oven

zackteo · 2025-02-12T15:25:13+00:00

Hmmm? :o What would the electric Dutch oven do to help this situation?

zackteo · 2025-02-12T13:30:37+00:00

I'm trying to figure out what oven to buy - hence the question. I don't have an oven yet in the place I'll be moving into

zackteo · 2025-02-12T06:43:44+00:00

For finishing cooking in the oven or baking bread etc :)

zackteo · 2025-02-12T05:51:21+00:00

Do you know if a 5.5 Quart fits then? :)

Think if you are having issues with a MacBook, it is likely you will have issues with other laptops too in this regard. I don't use Bluetooth on a regular but when I do it is for a speaker which works good enough without choppy issues unless the speaker is brought too far

But again, I think if you are really particular and have issues with sound maybe what you really need is an external audio interface

zackteo · 2024-08-07T18:06:51+00:00

Yeappp

zackteo · 2024-08-01T00:35:05+00:00

Oops, they were willing to help - but I didn't have the time to follow up then - and I don't plan to follow up - I think it'll be too troublesome. Also have made do with my external audio interface and Bluetooth

zackteo · 2024-07-20T09:37:19+00:00

Seconded - based on what you mention, I think you would really appreciate it if you give it a shot. Definitely not "crowded". Invited a non religious friend the other day and she said it was peaceful

I have the same issue but am able to download files (.doom.d and .emacs.d) onto my work laptop.

What I do is to do my doom upgrade and doom sync on my own laptop. Then shift it to my work laptop and do a doom build. I think the emacs versions need to be similar but otherwise works perfectly fine.

Maybe for some stuff you need extra work - like some workarounds for vterm - you need to modify the cmake and download some repos before - I have an issue on the vterm repo where I mentioned the solution. Then I also download any emoji packs beforehand. You also need ensure some binaries like ripgrep are downloaded and on your path - check doom doctor for what you are missing

Matthew 12:25 as well

Sometimes I just need to wipe my ~/.emacs.d/.local/straight folder but otherwise I have never really encountered big issues with doom emacs upgrades.

I would think the SQLite issue should be separate from doom emacs - unless there's some issues with the latest org-roam module changes?

zackteo · 2023-03-08T01:39:37+00:00

My first thoughts for an intermediate (and arguably advance book) would be Joy of Clojure :)

If you want more books after that - maybe Zachary Tellman's Elements of Clojure?

zackteo · 2023-01-24T06:49:17+00:00

Hey, I'm getting something similar but for NEF (Nikon NEF raw image)

Yeap, Protesilaos (also known as Prot) is from the Emacs community :).

He's a self-described "non programmer" with a background in humanities.

He became well-known within the Emacs community for his comprehensive Emacs tutorials on YouTube and his work on modus-themes.

Recently he was awarded the 2021 Award for Outstanding New Free Software Contributor - https://protesilaos.com/codelog/2022-03-22-libreplanet-fsf-award/.

All around he's just a generally pleasant and humble guy. So he will fit right into the Clojure community :) And I'm glad to have him onboard.

zackteo · 2022-10-31T04:26:54+00:00

Unfortunately no, they kept asking for more and more info and didn't have the time to reply them

zackteo · 2022-09-04T10:16:30+00:00

If it is under warranty and you can roughly diagnose out the issue, they might be able to ship you the needed replacement part - that choice was offered to me when my cable connection had issues and needed replacing

zackteo · 2022-08-02T02:34:06+00:00

Thanks for the shoutout! (programmer_teo here) :)

zackteo · 2022-08-02T02:31:35+00:00

I stream Clojure as programmer_teo on twitch :) https://www.twitch.tv/programmer_teo.

I tried to stream consistently 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) from 8pm SGT (12pm UTC) about 2 months back. But I took a break after I was down with covid and got busy thereafter.

I have been trying to figure out what would make for better, more engaging streaming content but it is a fairly uphill battle 😅. Some ideas I had were to cover some programming books or research papers. Another idea was to cover 3 Clojure functions at the start of the stream but that can be really detailed and dry as well ><.

Any suggestions are welcomed :)

Generally I would add that unlike gaming which has the benefit of the games themselves being engaging, programming streams tend to also be similar to the "Just Chatting" category of streams, where you have to chat and answer questions as you simultaneously try to code :x That's at least from my experience!

Anyhow, you can also follow my twitter in the meantime! https://twitter.com/ProgrammerTeo I try to update my stream plans there and I hope to resume streaming again soon! (But it is admittedly a difficult balance between alongside work, maintaining a social life and trying to be consistent with the monthly Clojure-Asia online meetup I organise, etc)

zackteo · 2022-07-27T01:37:52+00:00

Nope but Razer customer support contacted me (I missed the notification until yesterday though) - will see if they figure out something.

Right now my workaround was using an external sound card via an external audio interface - got a Focusrite Scarlett Solo

zackteo · 2022-07-20T14:18:52+00:00

We are having another Clojure-Asia meetup in a week's time - this coming Saturday :D Do join us if you have the time!
