@tychi That's interesting. I was thinking of using a combo of dpad + amalog stick. Analog stick rotates to select one of 6 zones, then clicking the dpad in six directions to type the character / symbol. My main issue is I really need all the special characters needed for programming which drastically increases the number of combos I must represent 😅
10. This is like the final step in evolution for me. It's purely a controller meant to hook into external displays. Some folks have already managed to get Linux on it too. Main thing it's missing is a keyboard. If I could figure out a proper text input scheme with a controller and get that working with my LUKS encryption it'd be golden.

At CES I stumbled on this Linux ARM handheld from @mecha Systems You can switch out the IO with a keyboard and gamepad in the works. What do you all think? VIDEO: https://zurl.co/2ebET
Job opportunities
My organisation is looking for a Campaign and Membership Digital Infrastructure Specialist - someone who knows Action Network, and integrations like Airtable, on a contract. Figure there might be some of you around here!
Also, we are recruiting a Head of Operations, part-time, remote. It is mostly helping us work effectively online, tending to people, culture and governance.
Happy to answer any questions!
@technobaboo @atomicpoet You need new accounts but you can follow / talk to pixrlfed users like any other AP impl. I have an instance on cybergram.art if you're curious to try it
@neauoire oh cool, this comic series? https://libgen.li/series.php?id=143792
Looks interesting, ty for the info.

@nasser I think Mastodon would just ignore vocab it doesn't understand. But you could probs post stuff as both. Main reason to reuse forgefed is compat with other impls that are working on it.
social inbox is in typescript, we have some docs here as well as links to source: https://docs.distributed.press/social-inbox/

@nasser I think it's a mastodon thing. There's "replies" collections in the spec but they aren't being fully utilized IMO

@nasser Also HMU if you end up doing this! I've been doing a bunch of static AP stuff with https://distributed.press and have a minimal inbox impl that could be adjusted to support such a thing easily enough

@nasser Might be good to reuse the #ForgeFed spec https://forgefed.org/spec/
@neauoire Which book?
Gonna be presenting my Tonal Lenses talk at tonights #AITinkerers meetup in #Ottawa
Hopefully it'll be recorded so I can share it here after
