Just playing Super Mario All Stars on an RGB matrix panel as you do.

To keep things together better, I 3D printed a bracket in two pieces, the subject of a work in progress playground note: adafruit-playground.com/u/jepl

This is using a 3rd party breakout board with 3 HUB75 connectors. I recently added the ability to drive up to 3 connectors to Adafruit Piomatter, as well as temporal dithering.

In this specific interest, I'm using 2 connectors to drive a total of 4 64x64 panels. --num-planes=6 --num-temporal-planes=2 means I'm getting effective 18 bit color, albeit with the least significant 2 bits being shown on alternate refreshes, creating a tiny amount of 44Hz color shimmer.

All these "go faster" tricks together give me about 88Hz refresh rate on the panel, despite that we're still limited to about 10MB/s of data between the PI's main CPU and the PIO peripheral that's acting as the LED controller.

Mich rief ein Bekannter an. Er hatte keinen Zugriff mehr auf seinen #OpenMediaVault Server ( #Raspberry #Pi5 ).
Er habe nix gemacht, ausser Updates angestossen.
Ich logge mich auf meinen OpenMediaVault Server ein, sehe ein paar Updates, stosse sie an, reboote und ...
Genau!
Habe keinen Zugriff mehr!
🥳
Okay, ist eh nur ein Spiel"server" und die Daten sind alle noch vorhanden, wären sie eh, weil ich Backups en masse habe.
Also installiere ich neu.
Man gönnt sich ja sonst nix!

I have two choices to run Home Assistant on my future #Pi5. With HAOS and as a Docker container. My idea was initially HAOS, but the Pi5 will be equipped with an SSD, have 8GB and may be able to take on other tasks. That's why a OS Lite 64 bit might be more flexible. Are there any major advantages to HAOS (apart from being efficient with resources)?

Has anyone already decided this for themselves?
