Looking for Waveshare raw e-ink panels with HDMI board
Funnily enough I’ve build a command line only e-ink laptop and it works great. The Waveshare HDMI boards actually don’t work in displaying with Linux terminals. Instead you need the IT8951 board, which they still sell, and PaperTTY (https://github.com/joukos/PaperTTY)

New to cyberdecks - eInk question
Here is pretty much the go-to for eink with a raspberry pi. I have yet to get it to work, but there have been others who have posted here with a working project. This will give you an eink screen that can easily handle text interface, but I don't think the color ones are supported. In general, color eink has a slower refresh rate than just 2-color, so I would start there. I have the waveshare 2.13 screen, so once I get that working, I'll probably guy a larger screen for a build
- Good E-Ink screen for a e-paper "typewriter"?

E-Ink Type Laptop ?
I'm currently working on an IT-8951 7" version to be more portable and affordable. If you're comfortable with Python and/or C, there are a lot of resources on Github and Waveshare's own wiki page. PaperTTY is one of the more popular repos with good discussion in issues about how to work with Waveshare's e-ink panels.

Meet Solarsail, a solarpunk, e-ink solar powered cyberdeck :) My pride and joy. I'll have better photos soon using the solar panels but I couldn't wait to show it off :)
The screen is a 10.3 inch Waveshare panel, running the PaperTTY project (https://github.com/joukos/PaperTTY/) in VNC mode, protected from the sun by a pair of 3mm UV blocking matte acrylic sheets.

Has anyone used e-ink/e-paper kits?
I have any extra Waveshare 9.7" with display HAT laying around if you're (or anyone else is) interested in buying. I bought it for a build and got it working with PaperTTY and a raspi zero w. I probably have under 15 hours on it. I ended up just swallowing the cost and purchased a 10.3" with HDMI input since I wanted a fully fleshed out eink laptop instead of just one locked to a single terminal. But it's a great option if you're open to using it with PaperTTY as a distraction free writing or coding environment. PaperTTY also has VNC functionality.

For Sale: Freewrite Traveler with Official Case
I use a 9.7 e-ink panel, a Raspberry Pi 4 (TBH, overkill for this build when a Zero W would have worked fine), and a 60% mechanical keyboard. I'm currently getting a laptop case 3D printed to house it all in. I configured the raspi 4 to boot up to command line and run PaperTTY https://github.com/joukos/PaperTTY automatically. The e-ink panel mirrors tty1 and PaperTTY runs on another terminal (e.g., tty3).
- I wanted a dedicated computer only for writing so I made one! RPI 4, hyperpixel, focus writer, and rsync for Dropbox backup

I can't use a waveshare e-ink with an rp-pico and Rust.
Thanks for sharing your solution and code! I don't have experience with Rust, but I was able to get a Waveshare 9.7" e-ink screen with the IT8951 driver to work with PaperTTY, which is Python-based. PaperTTY has reported compatibility up to the Waveshare's 13.3" screen if you ever want to expand into other sizes.

AMD May Get Across the CUDA Moat
Yep, did exactly that. IMO he threw a fit, even though AMD was working with him squashing bugs. https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/2198#issuec...

ROCm Is AMD's #1 Priority, Executive Says
Ok, I wonder what's wrong. maybe it's this? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4959621/error-1001-in-cl...
Nope. Anything about this on the arch wiki? Nope
This bug report[2] from 2021? Maybe I need to update my groups.

Simplifying GPU Application Development with HMM

Nvidia H100 GPUs: Supply and Demand
They're talking about the meltdown he had on stream [1] (in front of the mentioned pirate flag), that ended with him saying he'd stop using AMD hardware [2]. He recanted this two weeks after talking with AMD [3].
Maybe he'll succeed, but this definitely doesn't scream stability to me. I'd be wary of investing money into his ventures (but then I'm not a VC, so what do I know).

On a personal level that youtube doesn't make him come off looking that good... like people are trying to get patches to him and generally soothe him/damage control and he's just being a bit of a manchild. And it sounds like that's the general course of events around a lot of his "efforts".
On the other hand he's not wrong either, having this private build inside AMD and not even validating official, supported configurations for the officially supported non-private builds they show to the world isn't a good look, and that's just the very start of the problems around ROCm. AMD's OpenCL runtime was never stable or good either and every experience I've heard with it was "we spent so much time fighting AMD-specific runtime bugs and specs jank that what we ended up with was essentially vendor-proprietary anyway".
On the other other hand, it sounds like AMD know this is a mess and has some big stability/maturity improvements in the pipeline. It seems clear from some of the smoke coming out of the building that they're cooking on more general ROCm support for RDNA cards, and generally working to patch the maturity and stability issues he's talking about. I hate the "wait for drivers/new software release bro it's gonna fix everything" that surrounds AMD products but in this case I'm at least hopeful they seem to understand the problem, even if it's completely absurdly late.
Some of what he was viewing as "the process happening in secret" was likely people doing rush patches on the latest build to accommodate him, and he comes off as berating them over it. Again, like, that stream just comes off as "mercurial manchild" not coding genius. And everyone knew the driver situation is bad, that's why there's notionally alpha for him to realize here in the first place. He's bumping into moneymakers, and getting mad about it.

Disable "SetTensor/CopyTensor" console logging.
I tried to train another model using InceptionResNetV2 and the same issues happens. Also, this happens even using the model.predict() method if using the GPU. Probably this is an issue related to the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT or some mine misconfiguration.
