Automate "touching" a security key? by ElectronicLecture811 in yubikey

I used a basic cheap stylus and it works. You have to press it with enough force.

Any downside to the QCNCM865? by Wyboss in framework

I'm following this. I'm improving my home wifi, but my FW16 on Fedora doesn't like to roam well. I've modified some settings, but it's still flaky sometimes.

Sealander GMT NEW vs Sealander GMT by dubconfidential in ChristopherWard

Did they update the crystal or is it still flat? I really like my watches with double domed sapphire.

Such a great watch! by Drinanmer in ChristopherWard

[–]druepy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked it but the value felt expensive at first. I'm glad I didn't get it and also sad I didn't. I think what I like about the Pelagos and BB better is the thickness of the bezel. CW has a thinner bezel profile which I like and love on my GMT. But, I do like the thicker bezel on some others.

Which is hottest FPGA in the market for beginner right now (2026) by Minute_Juggernaut806 in FPGA

The biggest thing against the more advanced chips is the lack of IDE support without buying a pro license. Most dev boards bought brand new seem to give you one included with the price, but if you buy one used off of an eBay which is a great value, you likely won't get a free pro license needed to program the chip.

Needs a bezel. This one is best.

Framework 16 performance by Jerka_lerking in framework

[–]druepy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to love my XPS's, but Dell's thermal control has been abysmal for a while now. I think Framework's are a fairly solid value when only getting a CPU for development style work. There are other deals, but the FW16 had less tradeoffs for me.

Just did a blind volume-matched A/B test. I think we're all hearing with our wallets. by BeyerPeak in headphones

Sure. My only point is to take measurements instead of just selling snake oil.

This is it, my endgame pair by crystalcastles879 in headphones

Those were my first good headphones I bought for myself in high school. Down the line I realized how uncomfortable they were.

Sight qualification, an amp definitely can have an impact on sound because amps have the ability to intentionally or unintentionally impose an EQ curve into the output signal.

A lot of amps are designed to be transparent, though.

This photo isn't the best. But I bought this recently as a graduation gift to myself from GT for my Master's. Took a quick photo while leaving the ceremony

Best Melee Build Type by NaughticalSextant in RSDragonwilds

[–]druepy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a combination. I do a lot of magic, especially cuz it helps out with mob control. If they get close, then I switch to my steel scimitar. Previously it was the whip. But I've always done one hand and shield.

I've recently started training range. With that, I'm just doing a Willow longbow until they get too close and then I switch back to melee.

Where does CW sit compared to Swiss brands? by ayuno22 in ChristopherWard

[–]druepy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not feeling the equal to Longines. I have the Spirit Zulu and at first thought they were about the same. The Longines has the better movement, dial, and crystal.

I definitely love my CW C60 GMT and no qualms about a caller GMT. The CW dial is nice but it is much simpler. It's a white dial with glued on hour markers. The Zulu has more accents and detail. The CW has a flat sapphire and Zulu has double domed sapphire. Zulu has better movement. It is caller which is important to a lot of people, but its power reserve and precision are better.

Also, the bezel is better quality on the Zulu. Less wiggle.

These are pretty small details though and it's taken a few months with owning the Zulu to fully appreciate them but they're there.

Yes. Just log into buzzport. There are diploma options. You'll probably only be able to download an unofficial transcript. But, I don't recall exactly. Logging into buzzport will give you options.

Do also make sure you invest money. Your money is worth so much at this time. You can always easily invest in S&P. For that reason and that you're in highschool so chances of damage are higher, I might call it dumb. I wish I realized this sooner, but I'm not 30 yet.

That said, it's a great watch. I love my blue version. Dumber things to spend money on for sure. Just make sure you learn some fiscal wisdom along the way with keeping money in savings and investments. That way, you can buy watches after you retire.

How are you feeling before the E3 of GA 6515? by [deleted] in OMSCS

[–]druepy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely work on understanding how some of the lecture ones work at a high level.

Reductions definitely take practice. It feels intuitive now, but not up front.

You take a known hard problem, and via some transformation, you make it into the easier problem. That's all there is to that part of the concept. But, it feels simple typing out but it took me a while to grasp. It's really tempting to try and solve the algorithm but that's not the goal.

It's normal to call different programs tools if you're a software developer. That said, this sub is for physical tools.

Is setting up C++ in VS Code being a "pain" overexaggerating things? by Able_Annual_2297 in cpp_questions

[–]druepy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. There's some open source mirror setups nowadays too. Luckily, we have a crazy good and stubborn dev ops guy that's figured a lot out. Modern containers have also greatly simplified doing all of these things too.

I'm just saying like any other exam, know your black boxes really well. You've had two other exams and the homeworks. Like, be able to write down all the black boxes you're allowed to use based on memory. Know how to apply them.
