So mods surf /csg/ and personally skim the posts? I remember there was supposed to be a string you could add to a post to get it automatically added, but that's no more 🤔

@Iren Masot i dunno if the [review] tag still works... It had some problems

someone here had the touchscreen addon thing for their rpi

wasnt it porco?

i have no desire for touch screen

ah

👀 touch screen is life

i'd just use my phone

Rig up an LCARS knockoff and be the hero we deserve

But yeah shield like that should work better and save battery

Hdmi is expensive to run

phone is 5.5 inches
laptop is 13.3 inches

so something in the middle would be perfect

thats not 7 inches

There exist 7 inch model too

I bet my leg on that one

7 is a modest size

but i want 10

excuse my newbieness to linux in general but whyis HDMI so taxing?

Then see link above ffs

cus i'd have to buy a whole enclosure

so it doesnt breaki in my bag

They probly have such things too or separate chassis keep searching

Or have somw diy spirit

I support the second

yeah

ive come to my conclusion, the 10inch for portability, a TFT would fuck up that idea

and cause me to build some sort of case

@Adrenochrome If you need a portable screen for a pi but also carry your laptop with you. Have you ever considered of just getting a capture card so you can just plug in the HDMI to display on your Mac?

Like some of these AliExpress portable monitors are like 5x the thickness of any modern laptop.

@adamcdx they would be for different uses, the macbook would be actual work like at uni or being at at a clients house

and the pi would have a wireless mechanical keyboard and offer more freedom in a way

but i agree some of these screens are thick af
