<andlabs> actually
* andlabs pokes both ej5 and Nerionaya
<ej5> wat
<Nerionaya> ?
<cr1901_modern> andlabs: ^^
<Nerionaya> oh right I just mentioned that the Graphics Gremlin looked useful but I hoped someone would sell it because the soldering looks beyond my ability
<Nerionaya> but it looks like the silicon shortage will make that difficult and give me plenty of time to get better at soldering :p
<andlabs> yeah that

<andlabs> both an adjective AND a species change
<andlabs> anyway which is better for gotek, blue or white OLED? because I have to choose, I guess, and I'm not too impressed with what few pictures of either I've seen so far :shrug:
<ejs__> yeah 0.5mm pitch SMT soldering takes practice.
<andlabs> shin megami tensei soldering
<andlabs> actually wait I don't need to answer that question because of a better priced dela

<TD-Linux> I used white and it's fine
<TD-Linux> there are some IPS LCDs that fit in that form factor too that are pretty nice. not sure if flashfloppy supports them yet
<TD-Linux> I'm currently getting pwned on digikey with half my BOM not being available. including RCA jacsk
<andlabs> clearly it's time to get on the HDMI bandwagon
<TD-Linux> oh these are rca jacks for audio, not nasty ntsc :)
<ejs__> i had to buy RCA jacks locally. excess solutions has a bunch of different styles.
<TD-Linux> yeah I might have to go there for some vga jacks as well
<TD-Linux> my most recent BOM has like 20+ line items out of stock that I've been slowly churning through
<TD-Linux> luckily I was already clued in when I designed this board so most of the parts have multiple manufacturers and it's not so bad
<andlabs> oh, audio
<andlabs> okay
<andlabs> uhhhh
<andlabs> either spdif or usb audio I guess????
<andlabs> or 3.5mil
<andlabs> two of those are not modern and the third is not practical
<andlabs> (apologies to people who manage to daily-drive usb audio)
