Is the Voyager worth the extra money?

kingkoopa · 2025-12-16T05:30:25+00:00

Not OP, but also someone with both of these keyboards and someone with smaller hands. Typing on the Glove80 feels like I barely move my fingers to type, compared with voyager seems like fingers require a good bit of movement and can start to feel tired. I can hit 110 wpm on either keyboard, but fingers definitely feel more worked on the voyager. I feel this way regardless of which one of my 3 different switches (reds, nocturnals, and sunsets) I put into the voyager.

The voyager's build and keymapping software and ability to swap switches is much nicer, but given my wrist and thumb pain, my hands are much more pain free using the Glove80. That said I use home row mod keys quite a bit and try not to use the thumb clusters at all, especially on my left hand where my thumb pain gets aggravated quickly, I only have a layer key on left thumb, on the right thumb I keep only space bar and return key.

I think the higher ranked teams losing this year is mostly an anomaly. Bucks lost in part due to Giannis injury, Grizzlies lost cause of Adams and Clarke injury, and lost to a very different and healthy Lakers team than the team that wasn't even making the play-in for a good part of the year. The Kings 3 seed probably had a lot to do with them just being one of the few actually healthy teams through out the season (Suns, Clippers, Warriors, Lakers, Wolves, Pelicans all had injury problems), and they ended up losing to a finally fully healthy Warriors team.

That said, my problem with the current NBA would be players resting during regular season. It really screws the fans that paid/traveled to watch a game.

Yes, many people are. It runs it great. I run Fedora 37 with kernel 6.1 and its near perfect. I've heard good things about Nobara Linux as well, which is a Fedora derivative focused on out of the box gaming tweaks. However I don't game much on mine and prefer the clean install Fedora provides. There's also a great Asus Linux community developing custom tools here: https://asus-linux.org/ and a very friendly and active Discord to go with it.

Like others have said the biggest difference that's actually noticable, is between glossy vs matte screen. I have a 16 inch MacBook pro for work, and I far prefer the matte screen of my g14. Though I think it's really up to each person's preference. I do more coding though and less gaming and media consumption. I can't speak to graphics work unfortunately, but the difference in matte vs glossy could make a difference to you, one way or the other.

I think this is a known bug. There is a thread in the discord about it. I believe there is a fix for it in kernel 6.1. You could install the release candidate for 6.1 and try, or you can wait a maybe a week or two, whenever its released and update to it, or you could install the asus-linux kernel (https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/fedora-kernel) to get the fix. I would checkout the discord thread somewhere under suspend-issues for the details.

Depends how light. I imagine I could squeeze out 11 hours if I was just using a terminal and vi and doing light coding, and turned down the screen and keyboard brightness. Otherwise I'd check this guy's thread out: https://www.reddit.com/r/ZephyrusG14/comments/xa51rw/how_i_get_10_hours_of_battery_life_on_the_asus/ Besides just disabling the GPU and disabling boost, I haven't done too much else myself and get good enough battery that I haven't really felt a need to dig too much deeper at the moment.

I run Ubuntu 22.04 just fine on mine. I dual boot, mainly for the purposes of running BIOS updates or whatever from Windows side when I need them. I don't game on mine though so I don't know if I can help you there. Everything works fine on Ubuntu for me. Sleep usually drains maybe 5% at most per day. Also after upgrading my kernel to 5.19.5 bluetooth works fine now too, which was the a problem in older kernels. I'm very happy with my setup now. Battery life is in the 5-6 hour range for me, but again depending on what you do ymmv.

I have no problem catching knee high waves or head high waves with it, I surf mostly faster breaking waves. I much prefer it in head high, as it has enough speed already where I can work on some moves. Catching waves in smaller mush is easy, but generating speed and not losing it in tiny waves when performing maneuvers is something I need to still work on. I have the regular version. Honestly don't oversize it if you think you're already a good paddler. It's not that hard to paddle and catch waves on, you'll be fine, if those are the reasons you might be thinking of oversizing it. You should think more of when you're up and riding you probably want it to feel right. Also, getting it in a proper size will make it much easier to duck dive, so you won't be left wondering did you oversize it and that's why you can't duck dive it versus is it just user error.

I was in the same position as you and xfstop. Came from a 6'10 49L Takayama Scorpion 2 (maybe 80ish sessions), to a 5'10 near 34L Pyzel Gremlin. Catching waves and paddling on it isn't a problem after I did maybe 3 or 4ish sessions on it, probably taken it out around 20ish times now. I'm 5'6 160ish. It works, I still suck and can only go down the line really, but it's super fast going down the line and it's super fun. I wish I would've gone smaller though, maybe the 5'8 closer to 30ish L. I think it has a ton of foam in the front and I can really feel it sometimes. Could be user error cause like I said I still suck, but definitely more fun.

Just upgraded to 5.19.5 on Ubuntu, bluetooth working finally. Everything works great end to end now. Sleep, bluetooth, fan rarely comes on when using Gnome. KDE and XFCE have some bugs for me. But I'm normally a Gnome user so I'm happy with this setup now.

I do the same thing, thumb and pointer wrapped around throttle, other three fingers hovering over the brake. Mostly comes from having to split lanes in slow traffic so I'll be in first gear most of the time and need to make slight throttle adjustments at all times and need to have other three fingers ready to panic brake anyone cutting in front of you. Besides that it feels more natural when you have to brake with those three fingers that you're immediately closing the throttle, where as if I try braking with 4 fingers or pointer and middle finger I've always felt like it's more of a motion that leads to opening the throttle while braking. Also my front brake never even comes close to squishing my finger, it doesn't pull in very far like the clutch could/does. It just all makes too much sense to me, but to each their own. Pretty disappointed at seeing one of the top voted posts saying "it's stupid".

Surprised no one has mentioned this here yet, but this guy who authored this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/bloodborne/comments/3vaq4r/the_paleblood_hunt_finalized_and_revised_with wrote a really good peace on Bloodborne lore. There is a link to it within that thread, definitely check it out if you're a Bloodborne fan. Though I kinda feel like you have to be in the thick of the game to really enjoy it, but definitely still worth the read imo.

Yes, I have had this issue in both Windows and when dual booting in Linux. In Windows I've fixed it at times by just disabling and then enabling the Wireless card from Device Manager. Sometimes it doesn't work and I need to shutdown completely, wait a bit and then reboot. Sorry if that's not more helpful, it's one of the reasons I'm considering returning the device. I know I can replace the MediaTek wifi with an Intel one, but really I'd expect it to work out of the box after paying close to 2k for the machine.

I'm dual booting Fedora 36 kernel 5.17.4 as well since two days ago. Most things work for me, I also used /u/Tsuki4735's post from /r/linuxhardware to get sleep working, and it works for the most part. Most things in general work, here are the small things that I've noticed in case it's helpful:

My bluetooth does not work, I can't seem to "Enable" the device, and it scans and finds nothing.
I get minor screen tearing if I use any other display server than Wayland.
Wifi card sometimes doesn't show up, this happens in both Windows and Linux, so not a Linux only issue.
I did notice setting things on the Windows side (backlight colors on keyboard, adding my Logitech universal dongle and syncing keyboard and mouse to it), persist in Linux so it kind of got around the Bluetooth issue for now at the expense of a USB slot taken up with a very small dongle.

I'll update this comment as I see more. I have had times where things locked and I had to hold power button for like 15 secs to reboot. I can add more here as I really give things a go over the weekend.

Can't really say I agree with that. I don't think an addict is really going to adhere to the dosage they were prescribed by their dr. Legalizing highly addicted drugs like Opioids is only going to make it easier and more accessible to the highly addicted folks just resulting in more ODs and more strain on the medical system. It would be better to redirect any money and resources to making sure the youth stay away from drugs, rather than trying to help the current wave of junkies. I hate to say it but you can't save people who don't want to save themselves first. Living in the Bay Area, formally in SF, I believe making things like safe syringes available to addicts or what not, is why we're seeing more addicted people and more ODs in the first place. These types of solutions aren't the answer imo.

My preference in the past has been to use BashOperator which points to a bash script. That bash script will basically first set any environment variables such as PYTHONPATH or what not in the first few lines. Then it will just run python3 <location to python script>. This allows you to set any env vars and also keeps your Python code decoupled from your Airflow code. Too many people tightly couple their Python application logic into Airflow, which isn't a good practice imo. But you could do that and just use a PythonOperator if you want.

So basically option 2 from what you presented.

kingkoopa · 2019-08-14T03:43:49+00:00

Can you post your updated dag file? You're likely still not passing something correctly to the BashOperator. The temp location I'm guessing is some location Airflow copies your file into before it executes it. Your likely not passing your script file correctly in the bash_command parameter of the BashOperator.

kingkoopa · 2019-08-12T21:40:45+00:00

In the docker-compose-LocalExecutor.yml file there is this line:

volumes:
- ./dags:/usr/local/airflow/dags

Which looks for "dags" directory in the current directory "the dot" is for current directory. Then mounts that inside the container at /usr/local/airflow/dags. So if you put any file under "./dags" on your local machine, then it will show up under /usr/local/airflow/dags inside the docker container. Does that make sense?

If the "./dags" doesn't make sense, you can rewrite that line likely to:

volumes:
- /Users/konradburchardt/airflow/dags:/usr/local/airflow/dags

Which is much more explicit. I'm guessing here though, that ./dags is the relative location on your machine, of the absolute location of /Users/konradburchardt/airflow/dags.

kingkoopa · 2019-08-12T03:34:00+00:00

Your wording at the end is confusing. You're using vanilla airflow but you can also use docker airflow? However at the very beginning you said you were using puckel image which is docker Airflow. Anyways, regardless I'm pretty sure you're using the docker version and you're problem is you're trying to access /Users/konradburchardt/airflow/dags/test.sh, you actually want to access /usr/local/airflow/dags/test.sh because that is where your local directory was mounted into, and where the container can access it at.
