Very accurate and precise map that I hate very much

got the sample of Boundary Devices Nitrogen8M i.MX8M SOM we’re gonna use as the first CPU/GPU/RAM module in MNT Reform 2. pretty high end process on this one.

also nice: 1. all component references on silkscreen 2. various testpoints with labels 3. full schematics for download on website (!)

eg. Guile abbreviates everything, which makes its error messages super confusing. they already were confusing, but this doesn't help.

here is a #UI lesson: if you wanna make something user friendly, you can't just apply every vaguely appealing "improvement", you gotta actually think about what information you wanna show or hide, and how.

Roses are red
Violets are blue...

imagine being so fediverse-illiterate you think juche.town is a masto instance

@niconiconi yeah that's a huge regression, sadly…

The service manuals of old professional equipment are truly amazing, the schematics are shown in three different abstraction levels, every single connection is shown, waveforms at 100 different test points are drawn, every single component is listed, with step-by-step test and calibration guidelines. You can almost remove everything from the board and put it back together with a service manual.

Something that today's consumers can only dream of...

@niconiconi Ever read a Commodore 64 user's guide?

It teaches you EVERYTHING.

They don't make 'em like they used to!
