mithroKamilion: ping?21:21
Kamilionpong21:21
Kamilionmithro: your query, good sir?21:22
CarlFKKamilion: while you are waiting... I want one of these $100 hdmi 'monitor' like https://www.ebay.com/itm/27399190872321:24
KamilionRight on. I've been looking at the 2K variant too.21:25
CarlFKIm on round 2 with the seller to figure out if that one has the folding cover/stand - "see what is included" is the current answer21:25
CarlFKKamilion: any recommendation?  I want the cover/stand - built in, attached. quick setup, no lose parts is one of the goals21:32
CarlFKthe little metal wire stand makes me grumpy21:33
Kamilionuh, my recommendation in that case is to avoid ebay like the plague21:35
Kamilionand also avoid the eyoyo resellers on ebay and amazon21:36
Kamilioni believe you get: an IPS panel of 13.3 inches. A metal chassis to contain it. A MIPI/TMDS to HDMI converter board, powered by USB 5V (with no OSD/settings), a bent metal stand, a cardboard box, a sheet of paper, and a distinct lack of cables of any kind.21:37
Kamilionif you're lucky, the HDMI board will have a piece of foam adhered to it21:38
Kamilionif not, a quick bounce in the back of a vehicle may dislodge the converter from the chassis and short against the metal flashing on the backside of the LCD21:38
KamilionSOME of the chassis have enough space to stash an SBC inside, they're rather thick and dead air inside21:39
Kamilionput it's pretty much just a stamped aluminium shell bent on a press brake21:39
Kamilionbut beware -- you get what you pay for.21:40
Kamilionit's probably a reasonable quality Sharp or LG panel though21:40
Kamilionbut it may not be free of defects for the price21:40
Kamilioncould have 3 or more bad pixels (and failed QA because of such)21:41
Kamilionfor most people who "just want to make this stupid raspberry pi I bought work", it's sufficient21:41
Kamilionhobbyists will generally tolerate cosmetic defects in trade for a low price.21:42
CarlFKI can tolerate lots of pixel defects if the damm cover/stand works21:44
CarlFKif not ebay/amazon, where should I be shopping ?21:45
Kamilionamazon's reasonable, I was just saying avoid eyoyo resellers21:49
Kamilionon either21:49
KamilionI bought two eyoyo branded already, they're krap21:57
Kamilionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guck4FoWQss21:57
Kamilion"Durable outer casing, to prevent fallapart." "Sold! You wrap it up, I'll start bringin in the pennies!"21:58
Tobai'm just glad that covid-19 doesn't have a durable outer casing22:00
Tobaor we'd be even more fucked than we already are22:00
CarlFKToba: did you see my flyer game idea22:03
Tobai didn't22:03
Tobai don't like games really22:03
CarlFKfirst idea was "wash your hands" in lots of languages22:05
CarlFKthen a scrambled list of the language names "English, Estonian.." at the bottom to make a game out of picking what phrase is what language22:06
CarlFKso that people get brainwashed with the "wash your hands" phrase over and over in their head22:06
CarlFKwhoops, wrong chan... derp.22:07
Tobai man22:09
Tobarather than make a bunch of translations into languages that most members dont know22:10
Tobahow about using the space to pass along more important information than how to write 'wash your hands' in swahili22:10
CarlFKshoo - take this to #ps122:10
