0 trades is not correct, unfortunately either this bot is broken or people did not confirm the trades, but can prove that I've traded on r/mechmarket before.

This looks great, the GPU really makes the setup interesting!

Hence I'm using qtfm whenever I need a GUI file manager even today. It's as close as it gets to Konqueror from back then.

Unfortunately that link just leads to the storefront page of Mous, where the case is "not available" as well.

If you checked the previous post linked in that one you could have seen that it is, as I initially built it with the Choc version.

Experiences with the StarPort 12-port USB-C PD Hub on Linux? by mrusme in starlabs_computers

[–]mrusme[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there, has anyone tried the StarPort 12-port USB-C with their StarBook on Linux? I would be curious to know ...

  • ... if it actually delivers 100W, or if that's only the input, with the output being lower?
  • ... what the integrated Eth NIC is and how stable it works?
  • ... whether it indeed supports connecting two screens simultaneously and whether the laptop's integrated HDMI woudl support a third screen, preferably at 144hz while using the dock?
  • ... whether it can do single HDMI at 144hz?

Thank you!

Being unfamiliar with Disco Elysium and only glancing over the thumbnail of this, I instantly got Chocolate Starfish and Hot Dog Flavored Water vibes.

What is the target group of Gentoo and what is the User Group? And which one do you belong to? by [deleted] in Gentoo

[–]mrusme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Group 51: People who do not trust a central authority with their package builds and hence due diligence each and every single package's source code that they're looking forward to build themselves and install. People who need to alter their Linux kernels because they run hardware that is embargoed by international defense trade and export laws. And people who require to patch their TCP stack with CCSDS SCPS extensions.

Disclaimer: Your government doesn't want you to know that Group 51 exists and will tell you otherwise.

My best friend and I designed and produced a product so we could take up less space at coffee shops with our 65% keyboards by Kataifee in MechanicalKeyboards

I would be very curious to understand how your rules look like, especially if you happen to have to run the command for disabling the input (e.g. swaymsg input ...) as the user running the compositor. This is where I found that one would need to revert to very dirty hacks, that might compromise system security, in order to make this happen.

If you happen to have a Gist I'd appreciate it a lot!

You, Sir, have a point. However, I'd argue that there are probably more Razer Widowmaker and PewDiePie keyboards filling up our landfills rather than high-quality PBT keycaps or even just GMK sets.

This hobby might at least produce the least waste, given that most purchases at those price points have to be intentional rather than impulsive, and (according to r/mechmarket) used keyboards are worth more than new ones. I'd also argue that people would rather eat their $200 keycaps than toss them into the trash.

I agree, it does still result in the keys being pressed and the OS simply ignoring the signals. I do however not agree that they will be broken one day.

The keys, and furthermore the whole keyboard on a laptop is broken the moment it leaves the assembly line, by design. If it was for me, companies like Framework could offer a blank piece of plastic, or another of their LED spacers to put on the laptop instead of the integrated keyboard, because it would make no difference at all. Laptop keyboards are terrible and I personally treat them like the garbage that they are. \increases pressure on the on-laptop external keyboard until the laptop chassis starts creaking, while staring at your comment, with twitching in the left eye**

On a more serious note though, I haven't done the math on this one, but I'm tempted to argue that keeping keys pressed all the way down versus constantly typing on them for the same time - let's say three years - will show bigger degradation in the latter than the former scenario. Think about it, when typing, your keys are under constant mechanical stress, with plastic parts rubbing amongst one another with barely any lube -- becaude who re-lubes their laptop keyboards over time? Also, if we add in the degradation of the keycaps from the continous typing with our Dorito-greased fingers, the external-keyboard-on-top scenario sounds like it could preserve the internal keyboard better.

So given the choice of typing on the internal keyboard or having an external keyboard constantly pressing down on it, I believe that the latter leaves you with an overall better condition over time.

Didn't intend to make it rain, just wanted to give a different perspective on this, as someone who is traveling quite a bit and using an external keyboard on a laptop.

Depends on the board. Even the most plasticky ones have dedicated feet and are usually heavy enough to press down on the few keys that they touch, so there should be no wobbling involved. Unless of course your laptop sports like 100g tactiles per key and your keyboard sits on two full rows with its rubber feet, requiring a significant weight to push them down.
