  • I used to get sucked into finding new tools to help me be more productive, but keeping it simple and visible works for me.

    Ditto! I keep my shopping list in Home Assistant, and always in Home Assistant. The rest of the notes go in Joplin.

    I require apps that can sync (and at least work half-decent on mobile) and that are as little of a barrier as possible. Even then, forming a habit took a while.

    It’s so unfortunate that Firefox on Android, for some reason, never worked well with password managers (as I understand it, it doesn’t support the APIs that Android has for them). Sometimes it’ll trigger the manager, more often, it won’t. Infuriating and a deal breaker for me.

    I’ll give it another go, maybe this has been improved recently.

    Edit gave it another crack, gosh, it actually works now!

    fta:

    In my opinion, this is a red flag for anyone building applications that rely on GPT-4.

    Building something that completely relies on something that you have zero control over, and needs that something to stay good or improve, has always been a shaky proposition at best.

    I really don’t understand how this is not obvious to everyone. Yet folks keep doing it, make themselves utterly reliant on whatever, and then act surprised when it inevitably goes to shit.




  • Keycap interference on south-facing boards is only an issue with cherry profile caps, and an increasing amount of switches solve the issue with slightly changed housings or longer stems.

    In other words, it might very well be a non-issue. And if your combo of caps and switches are problematic, you can always use tiny slips of paper in the stems of the switches, or o-rings.

    SAL is new to me - SA-ish, but not as high? (That’s the impression I get from your picture).

    And yes, still not 100% done with the layout of my Lily (are you ever), but certainly very glad I built it. Not sure I’m I’m ever ready for Vallack levels of key reduction, though…


  • +1 for Tumbleweed, it works so incredibly well. In the very rare case where an update doesn’t work out for you, you can easily roll back to a previous btrfs snapshot.

    Fedora is quite nice, too, but I’ve come to prefer rolling distros over a release based one.

    Kalpa / Aeon might be interesting, too, if your use case fits an immutable distro.

    Not OP, but I doubt their board’s build quality is indicative, really. The C and non-pro K series are wholly like different boards, at a different price point. All plastic, and while they’re sturdy enough, it’s nothing special.

    Source: I have a K2. Compared to my wife’s Epomaker TH80, I prefer the Epomaker in terms of build. But it’s not like the K2 is bad, or anything. I’d expect the C series to be mostly comparable.
