I recently did a similar project. I have an old Chumby One device. I wrote a simple app that renders the time and date and outdoor temp and humidity. It receives the weather data over mqtt from rtl_433 running on an old wireless router with a USB sdr dongle.
It writes the image directly to the framebuffer /dev/fb0
I cross compiled for armv5te-unknown-linux-musleabi and it works great. Hard to get much running on 64mb of ram these days.
I hope to get the source up on GitHub when I get some time.
Exactly, you can subscribe to both if you like. If communities were unique across instances then a bad actor could set up their own instance and claim all of the community names.
Same here. I'd often type out a comment just to delete it with the assumption that I'll get downvoted or that it'll start a comment chain of arguing.
It's been nice to see other's perspectives on this.
So far the culture on Lemmy has been so much more positive. Maybe this is just a side effect of eager early adopters using the platform.
Wow I remember trying minetest in 2010. I'm glad to see how good it looks today. I'm going to give it another try.
