The official guide [0] is good, but a bit too detailed. I started out with ruiqimao's mechanical keyboard PCB guide [1], which I think is good enough to get my feet wet. From then on it's just messing around and checking the doc along the way.

I guess it varies somewhat, but how much does an average competitive mouse costs?

There hasn't been any compelling reason that makes it necessary for me to use VR/AR. It's still at the "fun" category, which make it hard to justify spending much money for "fun". Especially when the low-end headsets is about the price of a phone or a (low-end) GPU, which undoubtedly can have more uses And play more games.

I disagree, Microsoft exploits people (not just users) in a different way than Google.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Microsoft

They strong arm with laptop manufacturers to nearly force users to pay for a Windows license for all device (non-Windows laptops exist, but let’s be honest, it’s insignificant).

They get into beds with gov to get license deals (with taxpayers’ money).

Not to mention the rampant telemetry on Windows that can’t ever be fully turn off.

And a paid-for Windows 10/11 has Tik Tok and Candy Crush ads?

Google and Microsoft are bad, no need to pick just one.

Yes, I’d be one too. I have no legal opinions about this, but morally, Copilot just doesn’t hit me right. One of the purpose open source exist is for it to be, well, open. It’s so annoying seeing this tool Specifically use only open source code and then have the audacity to close source + paywall access to it.

I used to be a little more agreeable with Copilot with training money and all, but seeing Stable Diffusion is willing to open up hundreds of thousands in training, and more in engineering, and therefore create an active community dedicated to improving it everyday, I just can’t help but be so annoyed when one of the world’s biggest tech companies pulls such petty move.

I fully agree with your point. However, this only applies when miners are buying new cards. I live in Vietnam, crypto mining/usage is pretty big, during the last crypto craze a few months (a year?) ago, all miners are willing to buy old cards, used cards, even broken cards at high price, I sold my 570 for $300.

Furthermore, flashing custom mining BIOS, what I’m told is that every miner here has to do or it wouldn’t be profitable, voids warranty.

I am very interested in something like that. Would you mind giving your company’s name or website so I can find out when it’s out?

Haven’t looked at the Intel space, but doesn’t AMD have an “PRO” tier available for OEM only? Ryzen Pro, Threadripper Pro… Or Nvidia and their segmented RTX/GTX vs Quadro. These hardware companies love segmentation, let them have it, do that for PRO enterprise only, leave my personal use, no remote attestation, immutable OS needed PC alone.

I’m paying for some services and yet I still find myself torrenting the same medias available on these platform.

Because of the fact that video compression is so terrible (especially with Netflix, even on highest plan) that at times it’s unwatchable.

I see these as more art and a statement about Linux’s ubiquitousness rather than anything especially meaningful. There’s probably not a lot of people who want to run Doom on a lamp, but people did that anyway.

Hi, I can relate. I also struggle to learn guitar for years, what helps me is that I

- Invest in an expensive ($400, so not really, but much better than what I used to have) guitar so I’d feel guilty leaving it there.

- Make it a point to pick up the guitar every single day, no matter how long.

It’s also great that there are lots of tabs for popular songs out there, and Carl Brown of guitarlessons365 amazing tutorials. It’s been a little more than a year, with a few breaks spanning days and months, I can learn to imperfectly play the rhythm part of many songs within one practice session from online tabs. I’m proud of that.

Good luck on your journey, after some time of playing, I can say guitar is the easiest instrument to have fun with.
