Reply to DIY e-paper instant camera that is like a digital polaroid (for ephemeral photos) by giuliomagnifico
Looks like a really fun diy project, however it's kind of weird that the screen is powered by nfc despite the entire thing being mounted in one unit. I get that it's an amalgamation of parts and modules, but it still seems odd!

I've been getting ads for ambernic and powkiddy handhelds and they look pretty great, with some great features, etc. I can absolutely see the appeal but they're also a bit too expensive to be worth taking the risk on.
By underpowered though I mean even going back to the dingoo a320, they've always underdelivered. You can't be sure sound will work, the emulators cant hit framerates, they offer support for many consoles but a bunch are "just barely", and even though performance and capacity has increased vastly, whenever I check out video reviews, I see games struggling to run properly.
It's just weird, it feels like they're always using bottom of the barrel components that appear to have decent specs, but just aren't up to the right level.

All those little handheld emulators look sweet as hell these days, but I don't understand why, despite technology improving steadily and cpus getting better and more efficient all the time, they're always underpowered.

This may be a dumb question, but what products is stable diffusion useful for? It's an awesome technology but does it have any kind of widespread applicability?

Sleeping on it is less likely to cause permanent damage because you're going to tend to move around enough that you probably won't cut off enough circulation or squeeze an individual nerve for long enough.
Where it can become an actual problem is for alcoholics and drug users who pass out to the point of total unconsciousness and don't move at all.
