    The Seeed Wio Terminal I had bricked itself. Apparently if it crashes it can enter a state where it can no longer accept new code. Also Seeed advertises it as having 4MB of external PSRAM. They do not document it, or even provide a schematic to show how it's connected - like which SPI bus it's on. For all I know it's not in there at all, and they just lied in their product description. May as well have, and saved some money on manufacture. I had just gotten DMA working on that little thing - based around a SAMD51 made by Atmel who I do not like. However, Atmel chips are very common and the SAMDs are ARM based, unlike ESP32s which makes them better in that respect. It was worth learning them, even if the Wio it was in is junk. So now I can't do any performance testing with LVGL or UIX on that device like I planned. That was what I was planning to do this afternoon. Now what? Meh.

      Go outside and enjoy the sunshine? I am just waiting for the wife to return home, then we are off camping for the weekend. This morning I got the camper hooked up and ready to roll.

            I was told I should exercise. Brooms aren't conducive to that, as they are self propelled once mounted by a witch.

                Why don't you like SAMD51? Just curious.

                    Mainly because Atmel tools stink. However, you can run Arduino on most of them rendering the issue largely moot, as long as you're willing to use Arduino.
