watching Divergence Eve because it's animated by Radix who animated Haibane Renmei (which was really good) and it's basically "xenosaga(ish) but with bonkers character design"

also they use Makefiles for all the high-speed scrolling code on computer screens and I don't think I've seen that before

alright, end of episode 2 and I'm feeling better about Accelerator. I think maybe they had a different art director or something because it feels like it's trying to go for the Index/Railgun artstyle but isn't quite getting there.

anyway this is what Last Order is supposed to look like:

I suspected the issue was a stuck bit on one of the red pins, and I was basically right: the R0 pin wasn't soldered down well and the R1 pin might also have been poorly anchored. With this fixed I can display other colors, and images! (well, once I fixed the pixel ordering in formatter code)

The revision 2 Sharpie boards work! (see my website) Something's wrong with the signal timing so it can only correctly show colors that have red in them (for now just red, yellow, purple, and white). It looks a lot better in person, much more striking, but the viewing angles are pretty limited.

in addition to her Level 5 electricity ability, Misaka Mikoto is also suggested to have a professional-level understanding of a vast array of embedded electronics and networking systems. this means that she and I would probably get along

today's episode of "computers in anime": Uiharu (from Railgun) has a ThinkPad, old enough to have the Access IBM button

Pebble has the same screen (memory LCD) as a project I'm working on and it's way higher contrast than I thought it would be (I haven't gotten my displays to work yet)
