My Primary Buffer Panel is almost completely revamped 😄 Just an now, no more in the mix. The CY-822A is also gone. I did add an external PSU to drive as many LED as I can imagine too 😄

I also programmed support for 4 to 8 rotary encoders and there is an additional slide potentiometer sitting on my desk. I still have to find space for that – but I want that very badly since I know how mining in works 🙂 That makes now 49 buttons and 4 axes so far 🙃

A more detailed write-up is planned, as usual.

Das Verwaltungsgericht Berlin sagt jedoch, dass er kein Vertreter der Presse sei, weil seine Recherchen nicht auf Papier gedruckt zu lesen sind. Was das Gericht nicht wusste: Das DE in FragDenStaat.de steht für Druckerzeugnis.

…im Gegenzug bist aber Rundfunk, wenn du alle paar Tage mal was auf deinen Video Kanal wirfst oder *gasp* Live Streaming machst.

We met with a teacher (about the little ones). On filling a form she said: Phone is not necessary, we’d be fast with eMail unlike others. She also provided us with infos she just "googled" to validate. My mind whispered: One of us!

Tried to run SteamWorld Dig2 from GoG. It just died with this:

ERROR: ShowErrorMessage: Failed to initialized OpenGL extensions (GLEW), error: Unknown error

This is from my understanding a fixed bug in GLEW on Wayland but requires an update of that lib – which is probably not gonna happen any more.

Fun enough we can work around this by starting it with SDL_VIDEODRIVER=X11 ./Dig2 under Wayland, with from my understanding invokes|provokes XWayland and brings us back to Wayland. And since I want to play this on my couch with my Steam Link I added the game to my library and set it’s start parameters to SDL_VIDEODRIVER=X11 %command% – Et voila…
