This will be a non-issue until the things get cheap enough to be cloned by a zillion vendors on AliExpress and sold for well under $99. I guess we have maybe another 5 years, tops?

@textfiles yeah me too. Delightful to go in with low expectations. High expectations KILL sooo many experiences!

@wilshipley @kpoulsen I just donated to @Wikipedia. Support free knowledge! #iloveWikipedia https://t.co/BlcwukMH6L

@wilshipley I have a monthly recurring donation set up! I'll donate $120 today and I tag.. uhh @kpoulsen

@PhilipBattin look at those chonky monitors!

@susanthesquark your poor ear!

@stevesi @johnolilly @mgsiegler I super noticed the Windows product placement in Never Have I Ever, because it's so odd to see so many Microsoft devices out in public.

@jminni You have to be very very careful to get the right chipset on the adapter if you want full speed!

@Hanzo55 @sarah_edo ya'll should check out Arduboy FX https://t.co/7gsObkuYpK

@paulg heh. our kids do night bouncing as well!

@CptAwesomeDi definitely better for sleep tracking. always feels weird to wear a watch to bed..

@wongmjane Well, actually, I don't have a question, more of a comment..

@Pinboard placebos work! https://t.co/ZG0Hheo2qH

@Carnage4Life Once you have money it becomes much easier to make money. Choice presented is clear…

@deadprogrammer get out of here with your witchcraft voodoo sorcery

@Frauenfelder @Beschizza No, never seen that. I would take it seriously. Make sure you have 2FA everywhere.

@JohnONolan You ought to blog this in a bit more detail

@Steve_Gibe @danbrotherston @kevindente it's not avoidable, because you will get sued about the definition of "essential", no matter what route you take.

@danbrotherston @kevindente just having a login requires a cookie? I'm not following your logic here. No website should require or use login in any form?

@mathowie wait Rogan got covid and took horse meds? And "it's unclear if he was vaccinated"?

@ZachWeiner keyboards

@bkero wow. the whole digital sword fighting scene looks like a fraught endeavor

@frankieCoder I hadn't even noticed that!!

@JourneymanGeek @djbaskin huh https://t.co/SUw4uh1qrn

@djbaskin absolutely not, it is a cheap sticker and plastic!

@nanochess that looks suspiciously similar!

@haacked eh, it's not the same. needs to be organic, artisanal, handcrafted mean stuff.

@cwodtke yeah this is also why I strongly dislike "killing it" and other super aggressive metaphors.

Spoiler alert, this did not ship. Any other digital sword fighting .. things .. out there of note?

@marcosluis2186 @discourse we have someone in a growth role, but if you feel like it's an excellent fit, hit up our jobs page and send us a note explaining why! 👏

@Khelsilem The Leftovers, on HBO

@marekpiechut 😍

@goofrider @deadprogrammer WTF

@burtonachitect @betsyphd @eviltrout see also https://t.co/6mzCvQVo9C

@zeynep the original minimalist keyboard.. a mere 40 keys.. even the 40% keyboards have more keys than this! https://t.co/SEW6ENyIEk

@jszobody well, there are zero full electric minivans, so there's that. I also came around on hybrids as being reasonable choices in certain circumstances, e.g. you need to drive LOOONG distances daily. And hybrids are super super mature in terms of engineering.

@eviltrout we did! that was the first big trip.

@Pinboard do you, though? Where are the chiltrens

@testthesoftware https://t.co/jsNrhtM9HQ

@synfinatic @Carnage4Life ah, I see, so this is a technicality related to the quote

@synfinatic @Carnage4Life um.. people die from covid? Not sure what you're talking about or how it relates to the original post.

@Carnage4Life is yelling "fire" in a crowded theater part of the foundation of democracy?

It's coming. https://t.co/z34wVRuMqK

@tokenerror hybrid

@pomeranian99 well, sort of, reality as in "predicted reality" is a totally open ended book.

@uxdesigncc @pomeranian99 yeah you can simply look at the price and determine why. Also lithium batteries were needed, just like electric cars, for it to all be workable.

@nanochess yeah, I need to blog it!

@sowbug I really like this -- wish I could get it pre-built!

@PoopsTech yeah the keychron.. order of pu, pd, home, end is so wrong though.. should be home, pu, pd, end!

@codeyarns I don't get the obsession with dust! I'd rather have great airflow, and quiet..

Here's one build log, with a larger cooler than I used https://t.co/qPm4h4gWXD

@pomeranian99 I think there's a PSP version which is highly emulate-able.

@cwodtke pretty much!

@DanielHoffmann_ those are present in the above picture

@DocPop that's a beauty!

@stevesi ask the free software foundation!

@Carnage4Life yeah this situation is even more clear cut than Tumblr -- its whole reason to exist is the sex stuff.

@rod_ I appreciate it, but I'm good -- I had the initial zoom setup call at 10am; I feel like it should have been fixed on the same day.

@rod_ yeah, the two people I've worked with via email (and even a Zoom call) haven't been able to fix the issue so far, after a few hours of emailing back and forth. I guess it has to do with having an existing account from years ago?

@_iransofaraway @slightlylate The good news is they are working on their own SoCs which should be out soon!

@migueldeicaza I'd check wirecutter for this

@BiZathras yes, I got this and I am liking it too! not bluetooth tho unfortunately.

@Nayfield ah yes I remember that, not sure the folding capability is needed, I did order a "air mouse remote on one side, kbd on the other" device to try.

@tlhunter ahh yeah looks like they evolved it a bit

@Carnage4Life yeah there's some truth to the "every option in the settings is the scarred battleground evidence of a product team battle"

@jcansdale @JeffChausse have that one, like it, but it's too large. If you don't have any space requirement it is a fine choice!

@tlhunter Do you fold down the two edges? There are feet that fold down on the left and right. https://t.co/6wAxAugnHp

@johnnygf I dunno but it's super odd, and you do all this troubleshooting to realize: oh, the batteries are low, and/or the bluetooth isn't connecting well!

I am still liking this one a lot. The only quirk is I *really* wish ESC was a dedicated key .. other than that it pairs to 3 devices, folds up neatly, and is comfortable as both mouse and kb: https://t.co/73Gdfb0CaJ https://t.co/EewH387UAs

@MostlySoftware ah good idea. I'm gonna try this one, looks a bit simpler https://t.co/uzT6m0molo

@MitchellMcKenna yeah I went with @BiZathras suggestion in the Rii line and I do like it. Not bluetooth though so it's an extra attachment.

Also one related observation: on multiple PCs, I've seen situations where games would have *abysmal* framerate if the bluetooth controller had poor reception, or if the battery was dying in the controller. It's quite odd but I've seen it many times on several machines.

@BradDPatton @woodjoe well, yeah, that part is implied..

From a few inches away. Not high pitched but smooth, large fan sounds https://t.co/xd48mEWnFn

Here is full load on it: prime95 plus furmark. With my mods it is not noisy at all, though I suspect the CPU may throttle a bit.. that avx2 stuff is cruel and unusual punishment for a cpu https://t.co/e1VfqLEH3s

very positive review at Anandtech. These mods also address the main complaint: noisy and terrible CPU fan. https://t.co/rTHbQQWYP8

I am really digging this Zotac Magnus One. Here's the essential mods: add another 16gb ram (so you get dual channel total 32gb), swap the CPU cooler, use a 120mm fan, and dremel out the side meshes for better airflow. https://t.co/KS0n73x7iE

@kenhowardpdx yes exactly. probably happens a thousand times a day on FB

Good news: was not a hack but a cheesy new account impersonation attempt. Still troubling but not a hack, per se.

@seesharp Right turn, Clyde

@KristyT I will now!!

@DanielHoffmann_ @VarinPrime ah yes I love that case! Excellent choice

@DanielHoffmann_ @VarinPrime super helpful, thank you!

@chetfaliszek dang I thought there was a new Dead Island. I enjoyed this series, what happened to it?

@gplumb very *very* good. 3070 + i7 10th gen is an excellent combo. Not exactly energy efficient though..

@DanielHoffmann_ @VarinPrime ahhh so this Zotac Magnus One probably does support it! What's the option usually called in BIOS, in which section is it in?

@DanielHoffmann_ @VarinPrime What is “resizable bar”?

@Danbo that looks like a newer version of the one I had though

@Danbo I had that on my pincab and I'm so-so on it. It's OK.

Aha! Updating the GPU firmware fixed it. I have not updated GPU firmware in quite a while…

@Beschizza I liked Ghost Canyon a *lot* and this is a super solid copy of it, with updated internals (3070 GPU + 10th series Intel). The only required mod I recommend is the CPU cooler swap + substituting the 120mm slim fan on the CPU cooler instead of 92mm. Fairly easy.

I’ve tried three different known good hdmi cables to a known working port on the OLED display and it senses something there, a connection, but no signal. The 3070 outputs fine to a generic 15 inch HDMI fold up display I keep around for testing. So weird!

also you will want this very cool adapter https://t.co/l7sIubQDVW

@schizeckinosy hot from being near the exhaust I suppose

@ShawnWildermuth is there a good link on it?

I asked why Teslas don't have HUDs, and it's basically the same reason the first Macs didn't have arrow keys.
