I took a lid from jewel box that matched the oak frame dimensions to complete the casing. It's a wooden tablet! Also downgraded to #RaspberryPi Zero 2 W so plenty of room inside. Still, a full-blown #ARM64 #Linux.

It will run dashboard w/#GNU Screen or Lynx etc. to show e.g. #teletext spotprices, weather etc. or random #ANSIart.

I have been tinkering with #AnimateDiff trying to get away from 32-frame movie to unlimited movie length using just home computer GPU.

It's doable. But getting transitions smooth between different shots is tough. But at least it's possible to retain the overall "concept" during the whole movie.

Below example is with stock #StableDiffusion 1.5 & motion module (no LoRA, no fine-tune) with just a static text prompt.

Wow, I can not recall ever seeing S.M.A.R.T. actually warning about a drive before it was too late to save the data on it. I guess my 8.5 year old drives in the external array on my desktop are finally starting to go.

I have younger and slightly bigger drives from my old NAS on hand to swap in one by one, and a good backup system so I'm not worried about data loss or ordering replacement hardware.
