do you need your microcontroller+LCD as small as possible? Welcome... to the USB-C sandwich!

[shitpostalotl@axfedi.derg.rest]

@foone oh sandwich? yum!

@foone
I really don't, but it's, erm, interesting

[razemix@mamutovo.cz]

@foone DIY smartwatch?

[lenarena@tech.lgbt]

@foone "Oh this is a cute small screen, I wonder how big it would be i- Is that a USB-C port? Is it THAT small?"

[foone@digipres.club]

0.42" (11m) OLED. When your USB-C connector is about the same size as your display, something has gone wrong somewhere

[foone@digipres.club]

speaking of something gone wrong somewhere, it has two reviews on aliexpress:
"Everything is fine."
and the other:
"Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Everything is fine."

@foone I want to buy 1 example of everything in the second category

[vortiwife@retro.pizza]

@foone i love when product reviews turn into the bloodied note you'd find in a survival horror game

@foone target market: that dog with the mug

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

@foone

No. This is cute.

@foone Fits a whopping 72×40 = 2,880 pixels, too. At that point, Doom seems like a given. Wonder how long until they have the version where the USB C connector tongue is just the PCB.

@foone For some reason I'm now glad Aliexpress does not allow me to order anything. They now require an account, but my brand new account was immediately blocked.

[gaelle@eldritch.cafe]

@foone it’s so cute!

[foone@digipres.club]

@aschmitz yeah already planning to order one for Doom porting

[sobaka@app.wafrn.net]

@foone@digipres.club

well can't you see it? everything is fine.

[sonikku@techhub.social]

@foone hmm, ny PS1 memory card had a tiny OLED, guess there’s a market for such tiny ones.

[1000millimeter@chaos.social]

@foone Does it come with a magnifying glass?
