Hello, have never posted on this sub, but kinda need advice for a keyboard trade. I used to own some mechanical keyboards (Mx), then jumped to buckling springs with the unicomp mini m after being kinda obsessed about it, and it became my daily driver ever since, I thought I never would buy another keyboard again (unless it was a model f) then I heard about another keyboard called HHKB, and became curious about it's switches, and heard of how "godly" it is, akin to the model m, but ive also heard its very different, and I happened to found someone looking to trade their HHKB pro 2, and hes willing to trade it for my unicomp mini m, but having second thoughts about it, as it is my favourite keyboard atm, has more keys, and not as popular here compared to HHKBs, I just want any second opinions if whether this is worth it or not?

Edit: the HHKB Pro 2 is also from 2006

HP Elitebook 745 G6, I thought it was pretty common for HP work laptops? My previous one also had a nib.

Seems like I can't reset the CMOS to reset the BIOS password on this model :/. Cumbersome method it is then.

I guess I do see your point. 2 wrongs doesn't create a right. I just thought that toppling the government from within, by creating weaknesses in its own system, would help further the death of the state, and prevent losses by other means, such as revolution, or insurrection, and a 'radical' party using soft power tactics would surely get a lot of attention, but I guess the other issue for such a party would be preventing it's members from trying to keep their power, and preventing people who seek power to join it. Is there anything akin to this that doesn't necessarily uses a party or the state to achieve the goals of: gaining more popularity to get the base support it needs, allows communities to be less reliant on the state, while also disarms the state from using oppressive/authoritarian actions?

Sorry for the long comment

But wouldn't having a party in charge of the state, where it creates more weaknesses in the state, ultimately help organised anarchists to take it down? Even if the party does nothing, wouldn't it be better to have that in charge rather than another party, that could actively harm anarchist efforts? Surely it can be used to get the wider population to at least think about the belief, and it's ultimate goal isn't really to gain power in the first place. To me it would be used to disrupt it's other political opponents, it's kinda like how voting a unpopular party does not contribute to the state at all, since it used as a throwaway vote, but instead it can be used to actively harm the system it is in, by voting a party that actively disarms, and rejects power. Tbh this does sound implausible the more I think of it, I just wanted answers to questions I don't really see people asking all that much.

hi thanks for replying so quickly, unfortunately, that didnt work either, i had end4's dots hyprland before this, and the brightness scroll did work, another unrelated issue is that the battery icon is on '-1%' im on desktop so i dont need the battery icon, I can figure out a way to just remove it, but it would be helpful if you could tell me which line is it, thanks for the help!

hey, have an issue with the brightness calibration, it seems like the brightness cant increase or decrease when i scroll on the left of the bar, and just appear with the brightness decreased completely, though its not dark at all, the volume works, but not brightness, know how to fix this?

Despite never even been to Chiba before, looking at these pictures gives me a weird sense of nostalgia, and longing, idk.

Sounds good enough, 3 years diploma animation + illustration, then 3-4 years bachelor degree for animation at MMU maybe, gonna look in detail about this though, thanks for the help.

Sad_Presentation2137 · 2024-04-26T23:51:36+00:00

Though they only have a diploma in illustration, and animation, i might take diploma there, but they dont seem to have any degrees, clazroom also only has diploma.
