Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.
Check out the #pilet, SoulsCircuit's very cool retro-futuristic handheld tablet/console.
Designed with Free Software, the pilet runs #Plasma and a full range of KDE software.

That's an impressively designed bit of kit.
Guess I have to go barter with the architecture department to use their 3d printer...
It's so cool I want to die 😩. I would never use it but it looks great.
Drop a SIM card in there and you’re not far off from a modern version of PDAs from back when pocket tech was interesting.
Not for calling of course. Text only (although everyone texts over the internet now - maybe for data as well).
Why not Calling? BT Headphone are quite good at calls
I think I just like the retrofuturism of “giga pager”. Of course calling would work but it would be besides the point for me.
A modern phone could do everything this would be used for on a day-to-day.
BT headphones
Or a jack of some description, wires are always better for calls
I saw a wrist mounted thing the other day, and I was thinking a modern touchscreen version running Linux could legitimately be great with a good mount. This would be perfect for that. You only need a wrist mount that won't make your arm sweaty...
is it touchscreen? looks great
Yes, it's a touchscreen.
cool, is it compatible with different DEs?
Get out of here!
(Edit: Yes, of course. It's Linux.)
This thing pulls 2.3 amps under normal use? JFC do a little power optimization y'all
Great idea! Wanna get on it?
Unfortunately, I'm out of spare time between my full-time job doing some of that, and my hobby projects doing even more of that.
I could probably spare a little time to give out some pointers and field some questions, though.
Ok, now do you get the irony? Or you’re the only one with limited time?
Also, it’s just a prototype. You’re complaining about how bad the special effects are while reading the script of a movie.
You'll also notice I'm not hawking incomplete products.
If this is merely at the concept stage, as your metaphor would imply, why advertise the battery size and life as being so bad?
Wow. You must be fun at parties.
I am, thank you.
Well, this goes on the old birthday wishlist... Awesome stuff!
@n_dimension @[email protected] @[email protected] Thanks! Please feel free to subscribe to our mailing list to be notified when it’s ready.
I kinda want one of these.
@[email protected] @soulscircuit @[email protected] omg I can imagine that becoming a perfect DJing computer paired with Mixxx and a Pioneer controller
Nice idea, using 2 batteries instead of one. Now to see if it can be hot-swappable
For the clockwork pi uConsole, which is a similar product and also uses two batteries, that seems to be the case
@[email protected] @soulscircuit @[email protected] that keyboard, complete with the laser pointer button, looks very familiar! Nice job squeezing it into a new housing. The trackball too 👀
@[email protected] @soulscircuit @[email protected] Perhaps I am mistaken but in the image representative of the final product, one can see the navigation bar similar to that of #Plasma mobile.
Oh, you're right! I was wondering why this was in KDE (despite being very cool) But on zooming in I see Dolphin and the Plasma navbar.
@[email protected] @soulscircuit @[email protected] "what is the difference of pilet and consolo?
consolo was the project’s codename. moving forward, it will be known as pilet. this change reflects our commitment to appeal to a wider global audience."
I'm failing to see how "pilet" is any more or less appealing to a wider global audience than "consolo", am I missing something?
@bamboombibbitybop "consolo" is near the word "console" but in some languages it means "confort", but is also, and more importantly, a vulgarism for "dildo". So "pilet" (I guess as in "support for a structure") is much better for marketing.
