Ozzie D, NP-hard :bikepump: :vegan:<p>I checked Crowd Supply, and found the Inkplate 10, a 9.7" <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/epaper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>epaper</span></a> display (recycled from Amazon Kindles) paired with an <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ESP32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ESP32</span></a>, which seems like it will do I want with little fuss, albeit maybe more than what I need. At $180 shipped + tax, I probably wouldn't want to deploy them in semi-public areas without screwing them in to a wall securely (theft has been an occasional issue in our common areas). <a href="https://www.crowdsupply.com/soldered/inkplate-10#products" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">crowdsupply.com/soldered/inkpl</span><span class="invisible">ate-10#products</span></a></p><p>Looking around elsewhere and reading <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HackaDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HackaDay</span></a> articles, I guess <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/eink" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>eink</span></a> and e-paper displays are still expensive (I read complaints about patent encumbrances and low demand keeping prices high).
