I own several.

If you go the build your own route, I can highly recommend the NEO series. They are fairly cheap, very good quality, short turnaround for manufacturing. They are easy to build as well, and have most everything included already. All you’d need is a set of keycaps and switches.

Comes in 65, 70, 80 and ergo layouts currently, but who knows what else they will release next. Check regional vendors for availability.

Sorry, forgot to respond, I use fn+arrows for home/end/pgup/dn. This is why I got a pcb that was capable of accommodating the arrow cluster (dz60, bt60v2. I use a lot of combos with shift and ctrl as well to select/mark stuff and jump back and forth, so barring getting used to hjkl, I found this more comfortable.

I’m using linux too, and have boards that use the same firmware as Keychron, QMK w/ VIA compatibility. Configuring them is a no-brainer, you just need a WebHID-capable browser for https://usevia.app , which will likely be a chromium browser.

Regarding layout, you just keep the default ANSI layout on it, then change the locale via localectl to whatever you want, E.g. fi or hu, and it will assume the layout based on the ANSI mapping.

Just one thing, if you are eyeing an ISO layout, the key next to the ISO enter has to be NUHS.

I don’t see a problem with anonymozed telemetry. I see a problem with it when it’s used for other things than making your own software better directly though.

At this point Windows should be free of charge.

Why is it important in this day and age to learn about memory management? That’s like saying it’s important to learn cursive, when it really isn’t.

Dilettante here. How hard or easy is it to switch back and forth between X11 and Wayland?

I have a colleague who’s name is Cummings.

Chillest dude ever.

TF2 is a class based team deathmatch FPS. One class, one character.

In hero shooters you have multiple characters with different abilities that make them distinct from each other, yet all can conform to a certain class type and role.

Why not have both?

Ever considered rogue-lites?

• Hades
• Crypt of the Necrodancer
• FTL
• Slay the Spire
• Enter the Gungeon
• Dome Keeper
• Into the Breach
• Runestone Keeper
• Spelunky
• Rogue Legacy

etc.

But how can they give raises to their execs then?! Think of the poor C-Suite!

I second this. What games?

Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not, but PuTTY has been the defacto terminal emulator on windows for the past two decades.

I hope they flop and Intel goes under.

🤯

I must have been under a rock.

No wonder they were able to unionize so quickly. And I bet they had to, knowing Microsoft’s track record.

Wait, I’m missing something. What does World of Warcraft have in common with Microsoft?

The memes…

I don’t know man. As someone who’s been using PCs for decades with occasionally dabbling with stuff on Linux shells, I’ve tried to install Arch on my laptop a couple months ago and I kept running into one problem after another while trying to follow the Arch wiki installation guide. Maybe if the guide had a single set of instructions that would work majority of the times, instead of branching into options, and only cursory mention of critical stuff that should not be left out mentioned in footnotes, it’d be easier to install. After the second attempt that took a full evening I just gave up.

Thanks to this guide I’ve stopped banging my head against the wall trying to install Arch on a laptop and just ended up putting Mint on it. Nearly everything works out of the box, and Cinnamon seems to be close enough to what a Windows user would expect, and then some, seeing how customizable it is.

I’ll bang my head against the wall again once I’ve familiarized myself with it.

Thanks again OP!

In all seriousness, the BBC micro could probably render it.
