DJ Sundog - from the toot-lab @djsundog@toot-lab.reclaim.technology

Now testing a Sabrent 256gb NVMe module, and have hopefully convinced it to go as easy on the amps as it can without just doing nothing.

Currently dd'ing the (unbooted) image on /dev/mmcblk1 (the 128gb emmc module) to /dev/nvme0n1 (the NVMe module) on battery power - so far so good

unbrick my heart
say you'll boot up again

(apologies to Toni Braxton)

All right - lineage 17.1, based on android 10, does indeed run on nexus 7 2013.

Another google device has been de-googled.

So far so good!

Hopefully the power management setting I changed makes it stop dying on battery, or else I'm gonna have to find another NVMe to use :(

tl;dr version: it looks like I have a functional NVMe drive in my #PinebookPro without any trackpad interference, having folded the ribbon cable, using a little tape, and ignoring two mounting screws.

Longer description of the process and my hacky technique in a blog post (!) at some point this weekend, after I finish setting it up, but have some errands to run right now.

Use enough barrel connector pairs to connect a hinged lid to, say, a DIY laptop or 'decke and one can have a healthy number of signals connected with a large arc for positioning while still allowing simple detachment (as long as all the plugs point in the same direction and have a plug' s width between them).

TRS and TRRS are also fun options, for when one needs even moar signals!

Mix and match if you want - have fun with it!

Enduring and versatile.

Two of these are likely destined for some quality time on my RC2014.

Think it's pretty neat that in 2020 you can buy a laptop with the intention of running RISC OS, of all things, on it.

Whoa, I lowercased at CP/M

In other news, it seems that the high bank of RAM in my #rc2014 is just peachy, as is the CompactFlash module.

Huzzah!

Ahem.

My #rc2014 lives.

IT LIVES

Apparently, we're under an hour and a half away from

ER!

Mashing up my interests, here's @vertigo 's E3 emulator for his Kestrel-3 running his DX-Forth firmware on my Pinebook Pro ARM laptop

Went ahead and knocked out one of the non-essential yet eminently satisfying module for my #rc2014 system - I'm happy to introduce the Digital I/O module, featuring eight green LEDs as outputs and eight pushbuttons as inputs.

Now I'm just waiting for the replacement RAM PCB and I'll be able to fire it up!

So, I decided to strike while the iron was hot and did the compact flash module too!

#rc2014

May have taken most of the day to get to, but I have now completed the dual clock module for my #rc2014 system!

Sure, you may have overclocking options, but you ain't got nothing like this...

I mean... !!

Are you ready to get pumped?

Still waiting on that replacement PCB for my #rc2014 but went ahead and got the dual serial module done today (after numerous surprise yaks showed up for a shave and a haircut)

Hello, yes, good morning.

I regret to inform you that I have fallen in love with a piece of concept hardware Panasonic brought to CES, and I am simultaneously heartbroken knowing it's unlikely to ever be produced en masse.
