Really cool, except the price. Around 500 Euro for the full thing... I miss the times you could make amazing things with a Pi under 100 Euro.
replyThat's the e-ink monopoly for you. Though you could probably use a slightly smaller b&w eink display with a second hand raspberry 4 to shave a lot from that number.
replyAgree, this was really a beautiful thing to see!
replyEDIT: no Ai for pictures - cool!

replyOff-topic, but what is up with the increased use of the phrase "in a minute", presumably to mean "in a long time", lately?
I've only started encountering it in the past year.
Did it get popularized by some celebrity, tv show, influencers, etc?
seems like you know what you're talking about 5k% increase starting in July this year

I think the trend is probably misleading. A popular youtuber may have released a video in August with a title containing "in a minute".
replyIt's been around in slang for a few years with a few variants, e.g. "I haven't seen her in a hot minute." I think it's just filtered into wider cultural vernacular.
replypeople have been saying "it's been a minute" to mean a long time since at least the 90s in NY
replyScarlett Johansson says, “See you in a minute" in Avengers: Endgame.
replyThis phrase has been around for years, I know because it has always infuriated me.
replyThey took a well-defined unit of time, which is relatively short, and made it mean “some unknown but very long period of time”.
So frustrating. /oldmanyellsatcloud
it's been around. I more commonly see it as "been a minute!" when you see someone you haven't seen in a good while.
