What's the thinnest E-ink screen that is closest to 3.5×2.5 inch?

I am curious if one, something like this exists, and two what the cost might be? I am looking for a screen, I assume an e-ink is the best/cheapest option and I want it to be as close as possible to the size of a playing card, ideally not thicker than 2MM. But I think up to 5mm could work....

pennomi,

Is certainly in the realm of feasibility, at least in a technological level. You can get flexible e-ink displays that are less than a mm in thickness. Typically the hardware that changes the display is the bottleneck on size.

That being said, I have doubts about the idea of “manufacturing for cheap” as even small e-ink displays can cost $20+.

pennomi,

Downvoting bot spam actually does help. Good UX should hide unconstructive comments anyway. Will there be trash? Yes, but it's more or less under control on Reddit because of user voting effects.

The real danger is in letting bots vote more than letting them comment or post. We're safe as long as humans can outvote the bots... but will that status quo continue? That’s our biggest existential risk.

Until search engines punish shit like this it will continue to get worse. Unfortunately search engines typically also own the ad networks.

pennomi,

It’s common for detective shows to have a serial killer with a very specific style of murder, and then introduce a “copycat” killer as a twist in the plot. This is just a parody of that.

pennomi,

I hated this about cyberpunk but apparently they fixed it so clothing is cosmetic only now - you get your stats from cyberware.

pennomi,

That plus the land grab that always happens when a new unsettled area is colonized. Yeah the moon is a horrible place to live, but if you get a parcel of land for free, and a place to live safely there, I bet a lot of people would be tempted.

pennomi,

Heck, why even have humans at this point?

pennomi,

I strongly disagree. Cheat codes provided infinite possibilities in an otherwise static game. The only reason don’t use cheat codes today is because they evolved into sandbox mode, console commands, and mods. And trust me, Skyrim would be long dead without those.

pennomi,

Not sure what you mean, there’s no json in this code, it’s all valid (if a little ugly) Python.

pennomi,

The genie never said I couldn’t wish for more people!

pennomi,

It took a while to understand why this was so deeply unsettling to me… it’s not that the eyeball rolls back into the head to look at the brain, it’s that the eyeball itself somehow has an eyelid…
