Also, large touchscreens can be really nice for collaboration, with multiple users interacting with one or multiple apps at the same time.

Not trying to argue against your point, but most of the Bluetooth latency comes from the codec, not from it being wireless. Bluetooth LE Audio comes with LC3 which supports a codec latency of as little as 2.5 ms.

XTEink isn't using ESP32-S3 but C3. That S3 dev board from OP also comes with 8MB PSRAM (xteink/C3: 384kB RAM only) which IIUC makes quite the difference when it comes to building an embedded OS.

I was just going to recommend boardspace.net here! It also somewhat recently went open source: https://github.com/ddyer0/boardspace.net It clearly is stuck in the Java Applet era where it started but Dave eventually ma

For me Tectonic[1] solved many of the issues I had with LaTeX, so that's what I'd recommend if you still depend on LaTeX as a language. Make sure to use the V2 CLI (`tectonic -X`) which comes with convenient features like watch mo

"USB-C 2.0" in the specs reveals that. DisplayPort Alt Mode requires at least USB 3.0, the PinePhone Pro would be a Linux phone supporting that. On another note, I've successfully connected to wireless displays (Miracast) on

KDE connect lets you disable/configure individual plugins, just disable the "Clipboard sync". I don't think it can by itself figure out that you're copying a password, at least across UI toolkits. FWIW most toolkits

Given how many platforms these have been ported to, this really is the DOOM of puzzle apps. I've been using this PocketBook port on my e-reader for years: https://github.com/SteffenBauer/PocketPuzzles

I gave up on finding a <6" with my requirements (audio jack, microSD, USB-C display) and can use my 6.1" Xperia 5 III reasonably well with one hand using a MomoStick. Other smartphone ring attachments exist but this one acts as

Right? It would be the single most useful feature for me. Unfortunately my device doesn't have libavf which seems to be needed for this to work. I don't even need 3d acceleration, a simple debian VM with docker would make me happy

I was gonna write this. Package management with distributed mirrors for both speed + redundancy are a solved problem in the Linux world. Ship trusted signing keys and even the shadiest mirror becomes verifiable.

Since I make music as a hobby, some of these are not gonna be incredibly useful for most: - Behringer XR18 digital mixer, mounted under my desk - DIY wooden stand for a small MIDI controller keyboard & an integrated XLR socket for a con
