💙 Probably going to build a little Pi Zero 2W cluster soon lmao

Our reasoning is largely that “we’d be using a PinePhone already if it wasn’t for the lack of usable accessibility tools” and so. We’re gonna write the damn tools.

Thinking we’re actually going to write a basic AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) app using QML & QTextToSpeech, designed to work on Linux phones/tablets

💙 I am currently writing code to do page layout stuff & PDF generation from those laid out pages.

💙 Thinking about getting another dirt-cheap laptop (the X131e is attractive) for a few reasons, one of which is “then I can sell the machines that would actually get me money”

Another is “a cheap laptop means I’m not afraid to modify the fuck out of it” - I’m likely gonna get the Storybook System to do some custom art on the top lid, and also maybe fit some extra shit internally

💙 I'm pretty damn tempted to pick up a ThinkPad X131e, throw NetBSD on it, and use that as my main portable machine - especially now that I have the remote development setup that I have
