Braille displays are pretty common, but awfully expensive. If your side project ends up costing less than $1000, you're on a good track. Most of them are in the $2000-$7000 range, …

ChatGPT already speaks Lojban, or at least enough to fool me.

Can you get any taste of the supporter features before paying? I opened an account, got 60 activities imported from Strava, I can see them individually from citystrides, but clicki…
