Hi everybody!

I'd originally planned on having a big effort post, but I've had some Bad Brain^TM^ the last couple weeks so that'll just have to wait until next time.

In the meantime, it's my 2 year HRT Anniversary! These past couple years have also been the first time I've really been in community with other trans folx; I've had so many breakthroughs and discoveries of myself that I don't think would have been possible without that and I can't be thankful enough.

I hope everybody has a lovely week!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

My obsession with making a DIY computing device continues, and I finally went ahead and ordered a display and an assortment of buttons to test for the keyboard. I ordered an hdmi adapter board to help test the display, but I still need to figure out how to convert the display 30-pin mipi dsi display ribbon to 22-pin raspberry pi, and it seems I might be able to just route the signals correctly instead of having to do anything fancy with additional chips? Aside from maybe a display driver on the pi side. I’m new to this stuff and really don’t know, however, so I guess I won’t know what I’m missing until I actually try it out.

This device would also have a cool sliding screen that slides up and reveals a physical keyboard, similar to some blackberry or sidekick style phones in the 2000s. I anticipate this being a major hurdle, along with the display and figuring out a carrier board, but I do have an idea now of how I might do this. I just need to start modeling it up and then get some cheap hardware like shafts and springs.
