 knowledgewizard | Netscape was alright for awhile. | 14:05:10 |
| knowledgewizard | A paid browser actually sounds quite good to me at this time. If I could get Chrome with all of its good parts but "ungoogled" and thoroughly tested and supported, with transparent builds, and to-the-minute patching that would have value absolutely. | 14:08:18 |

I heard its a pain in the ass It's much less a PITA if you don't install any GUI | 16:09:15 |
| Daybreak | Continuously rebuilding readline for example is much faster than rebuilding QT | 16:09:56 |
| Daybreak | Why is it that smartcards are dirt-cheap, while readers with pin-pads built in are crazy expensive? | 17:13:45 |
| Daybreak | Certainly more than the price of the electronics or casing | 17:13:58 |
| knowledgewizard | It is likely that the buyer of the reader is willing to pay more for ephemeral gains in xy feature charts. | 17:15:49 |
| Daybreak | I'd like one where you have to physically push buttons rather than receiving the code over the USB bus | 17:17:54 |
| Daybreak | but it'd probably be cheaper to make it with a pi-zero | 17:18:22 |

Certainly more than the price of the electronics or casing Most likely is due the price of storage and design. If a device is not very popular it becomes expensive.
I would say most of the cost is due the fact you are locked in in a solution where if you want another device compatible you have a single supplier. | 17:28:27 |
| Daybreak | Must be pretty unpopular then. | 17:29:08 |
| Daybreak | It's a device with a pin pad, a usb interface on one end, and a CCID interface on the other, and a microcontroller to glue them together | 17:29:46 |
| knowledgewizard | Perhaps you could 3D print one? | 17:30:13 |
| Daybreak | Most likely choice | 17:30:32 |
| Daybreak | But it looks like there are smartcard applications for ledger/trezor | 17:31:01 |
| knowledgewizard | There is a Cherry keyboard with an integrated card reader, though I do not know if it would fit the spec you have. | 17:31:34 |

https://charlesleifer.com/blog/monospace-font-favorites/ I prefer subpixel rendered fonts. I have a script somewhere around here for enhancing sharpness of high resolution images by using subpixel rendering that I used for desktop backgrounds | 21:36:35 |
| solderfumes | It's an ImageMagick one-liner, let me find it..... | 21:37:22 |
| solderfumes | convert -verbose "$1" \
-gamma 0.4545454545 -resize 5760x3240^ \
-gravity center -crop 5760x3240+0+0 \
-resize 5760x3240\! \
-channel Red -morphology Convolve '3x1: 0, 0, 1' \
-channel Blue -morphology Convolve '3x1: 1, 0, 0' \
+channel \
-filter Point -resize 1920x1080\! -gamma 2.2 \
-quality 100 "$1".jpg
| 21:40:56 |
| solderfumes | The script is old, I don't know if more recent IM builds do gamma correct resizing or not, this does a good job for problematic images | 21:42:48 |
