  • Weird to put quotes around a word I did not use. Additionally I have not made any presumptions about you or your intelligence. But my post about a project (again, the main point of my post being a project that is not mine) is not a support forum for you not being able to see the bodies of crossposts. Or would you have preferred I copy pasted the post body into a comment for you?

    Maybe you didn’t see what the actual problem causing the misunderstanding was but let me clarify it for you:

    Alternatively if you don’t prefer this behavior, you can disable crosspost embed in Settings to get the normal Lemmy behavior.

    Once you do that, you’ll have the info you were asking for in your initial comment, or, more importantly, you won’t have this misunderstanding with others in the future.

    Also, I don’t know how many times I have to type it, my project is ending. I didn’t post this to talk about my project, the goal of this post to raise awareness for a project I have nothing to do with. Your imagined issues with me causing you to not look at the project is only detrimental for you.

    Sorry you don’t like how I type I guess?



  • Not sure how my comment was at all passive. From my perspective using the default lemmy.zip frontend, I can see the post body, which answered the question you were asking before you had asked it. I clearly stated what I thought you were asking for, mentioned how to find the info and that it was already provided, and then provided the link again. If anything, my comment was aggressive, there was no passivity about it.

    Now that I’m aware that some frontends for federated social media do not show the body of crossposts, which I verified by checking the voyager frontend for myself, I went ahead and checked the github for the FE. I found this closed issue: https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues/1409

    Here is an excerpt from that link

    This is intentional. In this case, you should tap the crosspost to view full text.

    Alternatively if you don’t prefer this behavior, you can disable crosspost embed in Settings to get the normal Lemmy behavior.

    Hope that addresses your concerns, which are unrelated to the actual post.

    Regardless as I mentioned in the post body, my project is ending, so the main image of the post is just an attention grabber to funnel people towards this project led by a different team. https://github.com/SPIRIT-org/SPIRIT








  • Correct, and right now the pi doesn’t actually get any info about the battery. The battery I’m using has an integrated protection circuit and controlled output, so all of the battery management is currently externally handled. Ideally this will change soon, but there are lots of other things that need to change with the battery. It’s not possible to charge the device and have it powered on at the same time, because the battery uses a single USB C connector for both power input and output. And the form factor of the battery is cylindrical, which is also not ideal. Its very much a proof of concept at the moment, I’ve got plans and ideas, but so far, its basically just a pi 5 with a touch screen, plugged into a power bank, with a fancy case


  • That’s actually the vision I have as well for the device, its basically just a Linux Desktop that fits in an average (cargo pants) pocket, and can do anything a PC can, so in my eyes it is functionally a cyberdeck. The biggest issues with the current configuration are that the UI is a bit tough to use, given the slightly smaller screen size than an average phone, and that it only gets about 7.5 hours of battery life when idling. I’ve already successfully made VOIP calls from the device, though it doesn’t have built in speakers or mics, so you have to use bluetooth or a USB to 3.5 mm adapter.
