@selea I haven't really looked into it yet. My machine isn't really super powerful for rendering tasks, so I haven't looked much into it.
Am I a data hoarder? Maybe.
Do I still have all of the original video files from @[email protected]'s #PurePwnage fan video that I helped score? Maybe.
We worked with the community on the #PinePhone's keyboard layout over the weekend. After some push and pull, and a total of 6 complete layout revisions, we arrived at a compromise that most ought to be happy with.
Thank you to all those who participated.
@e8johan Image sensor what you'd expect for $29.99, with optics to match.
With the infrared LED, mic, speaker, PoE-ethernet, wifi, SD card support, emmc, USB host, and a whole bunch of GPIO, there are a lot of other bits of hardware that bite into the camera and optic budget.
@e8johan I don't have any samples available, but it's nothing to write home about. It's absolutely fair given the low cost and the number of other hardware features the camera has.
I think it's clearly aimed as a development platform, which is what I'm excited about. Like most #Pine64 products, the goal seems to be providing an affordable dev platform.
@selea Is that the community render farm project?
@anornymorse The #Pine64 team and those working on related projects have been absolutely killing it this last year with some amazing hardware and software releases.

The #PinePhone modem (yes, the modem) can now run Linux kernel 5.10 (@[email protected])... we're sure many of you know where this is heading :)
Massive thanks to biktorgj, konradybcio and others.
Look, democracy can't work without sulfuric acid and electron microscopes
@[email protected] Made a carrying pouch for my #pinecil. Just after replacing the buck-converter I blew up (stay within specs😅)

As much as I love the Kobo Forma, I'd really love a truly open alternative from a company like @PINE64.
Hopefully we'll see something like that in the coming years.
