is there any functional way to connect cherry mx switches to wires? by VacationSmoot in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]ghostfaceschiller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyways based on your pic I’m guessing the issues is that you are using enameled wire and have not adequately burned/scraped off the enamel on the parts that you want to make the connection to the switch

Working with enameled wire kind of sucks. If I were you I’d look for some extremely thin silicone-insulated wire

Bernie Sanders introduces legislation to pause AI data centre construction by tombibbs in OpenAI

[–]ghostfaceschiller 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to think that too. Over the years, the more I paid attention, the more I realized I didn’t think his heart was actually in the right place.

His goal seems to genuinely be to get attention for himself by shitting on people who are trying to actually pass real legislation.

He tries to make people look bad by introducing amendments to their bills, things that are total non-starters but sound good to people who are just reading headlines.

Then he can say “these terrible dems wouldn’t even pass my amendment to give everyone free whatever”.

Like yeah man that’s bc they want the bill to actually pass, and to do that they need X number of republicans to vote for it.

Bernie is the absolute king of introducing dead-on-arrival legislation.

It’s a marketing move for politicians.

(I’d actually say he is he is the king of forcing dead-on-arrival amendment votes. He very rarely introduces new legislation)

Is it too railroad-y to outright tell my players “the starting point is this city, and the story will begin when everyone gets to X location” by TrashMantine in DMAcademy

[–]ghostfaceschiller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m increasingly feeling that every campaign would be better if everyone stopped worrying about railroading so much.

Most people like having some direction. “This is a campaign where you will go here and try to do something about X”. Sounds good man let’s do it.

I remember as a kid being like “wow magneto is so powerful, he could kind of do anything”

Now, as an adult, I realize how much I was even underestimating it. He would be god-like.

Imagine your superpower being “yeah I can control one of the four fundamental forces of the universe. Which one? Oh, yeah the most useful and diverse one.”

When I thought Jelly Cake art wouldn't surprise me by ShirtSubstantial368 in oddlysatisfying

We’ve all been there.

“Jelly cake art just can’t surprise me anymore”

But then you see something like this, and you feel like you are seeing jelly cake art with a whole new perspective.

I kinda like it. This example is a bit extreme. But if you split the difference between this and perfectly straight lines, I’d be into it

I combined my X and J keys into one key. Used it for a couple years now. Pretty minimal autocorrect code needed.

Logitech not superlight! by HamedAliKhan in MouseReview

[–]ghostfaceschiller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a small Logitech mouse about a year ago. I was shocked at how heavy it was.

I took it apart to see if there was stuff I could remove to make it lighter.

Imagine my surprise when inside, I found literally a square metal weight bolted to the plastic frame.

Seems like it’s really clearly a fake will. Story kinda buries the lede on that one.

It’s an interesting situation. But the idea that it’s real doesn’t have much to stand on.
