I now wonder if the fonts could be stored as an RLE format. 🤔

In reply to @peter9477:matrix.org
I've only skimmed through the discussion, but note that the u8g2 format uses some form of RLE for the fonts. I observed a flash size reduction when switching to those from the default monospace fonts, and for that matter a 3x speedup in rendering. I'm not sure the latter is directly related to that, but I'll take it. (I'm fairly sure I was drawing only foreground pixels even previously, but I won't swear to it. I definitely am with u8g2_fonts however... so it's possible that's the source of the speedup instead.)

Hey! I am crafting a simulator for my embedded-graphics based project. The project is audio related, so I am looking into using SDL2 audio when running on simulator. SDL2 does not like if I am (re)initing it in my code to get the audio subsystem out. So I wonder if it would make sense to have a way in the embedded-graphics-simulator for this. I crafted some PoC code that seems to work for playback (I could imagine the same for recording): https://github.com/embedded-graphics/simulator/commit/56c93e3d8ad86f4a0703d0bc676013213f93d6a3
What do you think?

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share if anybody is interested. The Rust Nation Conference happening in London will have talks on

• Satellites
• Drones

And a talk from Frederic Ameye from Renault on Rust being used in Automotive.

Anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?
