you can spin it for volume

2019-08-26 10:57:32 UTC  

it has 8 axis and click iirc

2019-08-26 10:57:58 UTC  

just simple microprocessor to scan for the movement and interpret what they are trying to do

2019-08-26 11:00:14 UTC  

~derp

2019-08-26 11:01:00 UTC  

but yeah as someone said times ago.. its only time when those autists find slide potentiometers and other stuff

2019-08-26 11:03:43 UTC  

tho is the community actualy using pots or just encoders ? ... considering some nutjob is planning/kickstarting even succesfully a fucking hall-effect keyboard.... im not that suprised about anything anymore related to keyboards

2019-08-26 11:10:06 UTC  

8 axis <:thonk:288060975775612929>

2019-08-26 11:10:37 UTC  

i mean i can understand 3 axis

2019-08-26 11:10:41 UTC  

but where do the other 5 come from

2019-08-26 11:11:12 UTC  

oh wait, do you mean the chip and not the physical joystick?

2019-08-26 11:17:59 UTC  

iirc psp thing gives different values for each direction (not just "-+ 100" for up down) but i can remember wrong

2019-08-26 11:19:25 UTC  

that sounds dumb

2019-08-26 11:19:38 UTC  

but i wouldn't put it past sony to do that

2019-08-26 11:19:40 UTC  

i know

2019-08-26 11:19:48 UTC  

thats why im doubting myself currenty

2019-08-26 11:20:05 UTC  

but afaik it was them or some other company what used some weird shit on their devices joystick

2019-08-26 11:20:24 UTC  

it translating even the "northeast" etc directions

2019-08-26 11:21:03 UTC  

isn't that like the super old non analog joysticks

2019-08-26 11:21:13 UTC  

thoo considering there is chips what do whole 128 compass direction thing on their outputs...

2019-08-26 11:22:05 UTC  

i think most older ones do it via "0 - 50(midle)- 100" type of deal

2019-08-26 11:22:17 UTC  

instead having different things there

2019-08-26 11:22:19 UTC  

dunno

2019-08-26 11:23:01 UTC  

im not that well into weird controllers i just remember trying to work with psp-replacement stick and having problems and reading something like that about same time

2019-08-26 11:23:04 UTC  

yeaars ago

2019-08-26 11:27:55 UTC  

i think default microsoft joystick driver supports only 8 axes? axices ? ?word?

2019-08-26 11:28:34 UTC  

singular axis plural axes

2019-08-26 11:29:00 UTC  

first was right then .. neat

2019-08-26 12:39:54 UTC  

the mi unlock precedure is so retarded

2019-08-26 12:39:58 UTC  

why wait

2019-08-26 12:42:40 UTC  

so that you might forget about it and end up not unlocking your phone

2019-08-26 12:43:55 UTC  

i love that

2019-08-26 12:51:45 UTC  

also not many people bother waiting for the duration before inputting their secrets and data to their new device = they get your data anyway even if you switch OS

2019-08-26 13:05:52 UTC  

I thought I remembered there actually being a somewhat rational explanation for it. Like "they don't want you to take your phone in for repairs, and have pajeet install his spyware rom while you're waiting"

2019-08-26 13:09:26 UTC  

>install spyware
>xiaomi
<:thenk:329322130804047872>

2019-08-26 13:12:09 UTC  

OTHER people's spyware

2019-08-26 13:16:44 UTC  

Unlock period is to stop vendors flashing their own shitty ROMs loaded up with even worse stuff isn't it?

2019-08-26 13:17:14 UTC  

All those [GLOBAL ROM] Chinese models

2019-08-26 13:17:21 UTC  

Or some shit

2019-08-26 13:22:19 UTC  

global rom is a real thing and its the rom everyone should get lol

2019-08-26 13:38:55 UTC  

It's a pretty decent way to know if the phones been tampered with before you got it, yeah

2019-08-26 13:40:59 UTC  

You either get "grrr I have to wait 72 hours to flash my rom" or "my phone immediately stole all my information, and sent pics of my gf's bobs and vagene to Sandeep"
