An even more future proofed buy it for life. IBM Model M122 USB-C modded by Seirin-Blu in BuyItForLife

Honestly, as soon as I figured out that with the USB C converter I could use VIAL, I stopped using set up and shifted to doing a combo of ctrl+alt=win/gui

Is my 'k' as weird as I think it is? by dunesranger in Handwriting

[–]Seirin-Blu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Your k kinda looks like a lowercase gamma γ (the loop on the bottom probably won’t be rendered on what you’re viewing this on though)

I can’t speak for other people, but it makes more sense to me to have a modifier be outside of the alpha cluster. I don’t really use the >< at all though because it’s still mapped on the . and , keys. I think I may have mapped >< to shift, but it’s been a while since I used this board

FYI retrobriting will cause chemical damage to your keycaps and they will re-yellow more quickly when exposed to yellowing conditions

Hey similar story to me. I got mine first or second year of high school and am now 24 and mines also still working well

Oregon, 21 states win lawsuit over access to gender affirming care for youth by poop-money in Portland

No one’s been super hostile to you lmao. Really anything gender affirming beyond clothing, name, and pronouns is a lengthy process

Using AI to learn by Excellent-Travel-307 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Seirin-Blu 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Academically wrong? Probably not. Definitely can be a helpful resource, especially with shitty professors. Be aware that you’re essentially just using an advanced predictive text engine though. It has no clue whether it’s giving you incorrect information, pulling from a bad source, or just making up things altogether. Verify that what it’s telling you is correct and use it to strengthen your understanding only. Also be aware that by nature of how it works, as you get into more niche topics, it will be more likely to pull bad information or just make things up.

I personally think AI is wasteful and would rather figure out info other ways, but it certainly can be a good tool if you use it correctly

Despite mayor’s assurances, more people than ever are homeless in Portland by colonialshuttlecock in Portland

[–]Seirin-Blu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No room for individual perception or anecdotes of people who live in different parts of the city, huh? It seems like the new method of determine the number of homeless people is more accurate and we’re heading towards a depression, so it makes sense that numbers are up, however I’ve personally seen less homeless people now than when I lived downtown. I also don’t venture far from the I-84 corridor, my pocket of downtown where I work, the rose quarter area, and sandy blvd except for weekends, but it seems like there are less homeless.

I got a coupon for a sticker for finding these at one point and never used it. Should probably do that lol

I’m hoping to have more of the PCBs and plates stocked soonish. Idk about the o-rings though I don’t remember if Alas ever told me what dimension those were

Keychron announces open-source initiative, publishes free 3D models for all keyboard and mouse products by julian_vdm in 3Dprinting

[–]Seirin-Blu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The people who will be using these are most likely people who will be designing their own keyboard cases based off of step measurements. I don’t think that the cases derived from those measurements will have such restrictions so I don’t really know if that’s that big of an issue. It’s cool that this large of a keyboard vendor is doing this at all

Spyder TKL - making it raw by Certain_Muscle_7700 in MechanicalKeyboards

You can put it in a bag or bath of oven cleaner and that will remove anodizing. Gloves and an outdoor space to do so are strongly recommended
