@futuresprog Where is Lee Harvey Oswald when his country needs him?

@scruss After all that the ESP32 lvgl implementation seems to miss every other horizontal line of pixels out of converted fonts. Tried it using their online converter from a TTF too. Same thing. Ffffffff.....

@scruss Ooooh, it drops it in /usr/local/bin - which isn't in my PATH

@scruss I get "Requirement already satisfied" but how the hell do I run it?

@scruss (import bdflib doesn't error when done manually)

@scruss So "poetry" is supposed to manage python libraries, right? Running "poetry run bdf2lvgl /home/vik/Downloads/9x15.bdf" results in:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bdflib'

If I sudo python3.9 -m pip install bdflib, it doesn't help. Very clever. Arrrgh!

The Quirkey keyboard lives again!

@scruss
Thanks! I suspect some beating up with fontforge will occur.

@scruss
Cue the shotgun!

@scruss
Not managing to convert X11 Misc normal 9x15. I need a monospace font with macrons and acute/grave accents on all vowels.

@scruss And the LVGL Online Font Converter is borked.

@scruss
In this implementation screen rotate is broken. Had to fix in hardware. Fortunately enough cable and room to flip the display over!

Again Wordle disappoints with a non-English word.

Out with u8g2, in with LVGL.

If you understand this, you will understand why I'm a bit ... frayed.

I'm sick and tired of seeing respectable news outlets wrapping unchecked bullshit around tragic and very real events. It's a disgrace to those who have been killed, and an insult to the intelligence of others.

@strypey
It's about creating hate to feed enthusiasm for a war that will kill millions. Little things like this will spin off of it.

@brennen @scruss Slice of candle in our house. Fun to make, and could be modified (wire with a loop in the end instead of stick) into a thing that climbed a piece of string really, really fast!

@bigblen You see, that just doesn't match my interpretation of "fuck all" - I'd venture to say that large droplets of virus could possibly be infectious, and people around me wouldn't want 'em. YMMV

Sounds like the beginning of the Everyone-But-China Club to me https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/469760/new-zealand-joins-new-pacific-partnership-group-with-us-uk
