  1. Potentially invented a new term - #vibepolishing - because today I vibe-polished my vibe-coded app quite a bit 🤣.

    Feel free to check it out on github if you have a #RaspberryPi that runs on a #Waveshare UPS HAT (E) as a backup during #blackout or in any other situations.

    Btw if you have further improvement ideas feel free to share in the comments or just fork my repo:

  3. I remember someone here asked me if Waveshare UPS HAT (E) is any good - i believe they are and I have two.

    We expect a rough winter here in Ukraine in terms of electricity, so I vibecoded a fork of the official Waveshare code for this UPS that not only shows a tray icon and allows for a safe shutdown, but also sends free #alertzy notifications to your phone whenever power is lost and restored.

  5. I spent the morning trying to write a Micropython driver for waveshare.com/wiki/RP2350-Touc

    No MicroPython support, no examples apart from standard MP ones. And as far as I can determine, the firmware does not provide an MP driver.

  7. I hate Waveshare displays. Their docs/software assumes you are not the intended user/programmer.

    Learn to write user guides. Users don’t want technical documentation.

    No, I don’t want to use C/C++ (Yes, I know how. No, I choose not to.)

  9. I built moonlet 🌙: a little screen showing my printer's live status (progress, layers, ETA, ...) via the Moonraker API using a Waveshare ESP32-C6-LCD-1.47.

    Designed a snap-together case in FreeCAD. It snapped the screen during assembly. Redesigning the enclosure from scratch and ordering a fresh board.

    Until then: github.com/tobijkl/moonlet

  10. @matthiasgiger Auch mein E-Ink-Display Waveshare 1.54" kennt das LLM, lediglich die Namen der Pins weichen an zwei Stellen synonym ab.
    Zu einem Schutz vor Einbrennen musste ich das LLM allerdings erst überreden 😎
    Bekannte Bauteile im LLM bleiben spannend...

  11. Achei a ideia do #PocketTerm35 da #Waveshare interessante, apesar da ausência de um #trackball, mas a tela de 640x480, apesar de teoricamente adequada, reforça o retrocesso acumulado ao longo de décadas: apesar de todo o blá, blá, blá sobre convergência e dispositivos móveis, a realidade é outra, com desktop environments pesados demais para rodar em SBCs com 1 GB ou 2 GB de RAM (as poucas especificações minimamente acessíveis nos dias de hoje) e, em geral, pouca oferta de software convergente para algo além de relógios, cronômetros e calendários.

    O #GNOME, por exemplo, ainda tem problemas para exibir a grade de aplicativos a 720p, caso o scaling seja de 125% ou maior para tornar a leitura mais fácil em tela pequenas (o que, na prática, reduz a resolução) e, em linhas gerais, parece muito pouco testado para cenários do tipo. E, claro, o GNOME não é exatamente o tipo de ambiente gráfico que você vai rodar num dispositivo, seja ARM, seja x86, com 1 GB ou 2 GB de RAM.

    Mesmo aplicativos mais antigos e fora dos holofotes, como #Abiword e #Gnumeric realisticamente esperam 800x600 de resolução. É compreensível, mas problemático. Simplesmente não temos quase nada que rode em 640x480.

  13. I finally wrapped up my custom mini #cyberdeck build last night. Uses a #waveshare ESP32-S3 touchscreen and a mini "OS" built using #circuitpython I wrote a blog post about the build (including links to download the #3dprint models and code) andywarburton.co.uk/post/gr3ml

  18. Hello #Smarthome community!
    I finally found the "sweet spot" for displaying data on larger LCDs.

    After testing various layouts (from free-floating icons to strict tables) modern "tiles" are definitely the winner.

    The aesthetics can always be tweaked, but from a functional standpoint, this layout is unbeatable.

    The heart of this project is the #Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-4.3B. It is used as a central dashboard for sensor data and remote control of my other IoT nodes

  20. Cześć miłośnicy #Smarthome !

    W końcu wypracowałem sobie najbardziej czytelny sposób prezentacji danych na większych ekranach LCD.

    Po wielu próbach z układem luźnych ikon/liczb lub tabelarycznym stwierdzam, że popularne dziś kafle to jednak jest to!

    Można jeszcze przemyśleć kolorystykę, ale to już sprawa gustu, a nie czytelności.

    Zastosowany moduł to #Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-4.3B. Służy mi jako uniwersalna platforma do prezentacji danych i ustawień innych urządzeń.

  26. Which gen AI is best suited for Home Assistant and ESP32 wibe coding? I am getting frustrated with both M$ CoPilot and Claude Sonnet 4.6. I have two small projects. One for temp display and another for Nordpool electric prices now and two hours ahead. #haos #esp32 #waveshare #wibecoding #AI

  28. Waveshare’s CM5-based mini PC has an M.2 slot, dual Ethernet ports, and HDMI output

    Waveshare is a company that gives its products descriptive names, not brief ones. So the full name of the company’s new mini PC kit is longer than the headline for this article. But in a nutshell, the new Waveshare CM5-DUAL-ETH-BOX-B is a carrier board and an aluminum case for a Raspberry Pi Compute Module that lets you turn the tiny module into a pretty versatile little computer.

    Among other […]
