He’s a pitcher full of Faygo.

I mean, yeah. That isn’t necessarily the point here, though. There’s a lot of frustration surrounding the need for private trackers and we could maybe solve that here.

maybe we make a usenet group as well?

I’m glad that the title is what it is here. I sincerely and whole-heartedly believe in what SDF does as a non-profit. Anyone has the ability to go learn UNIX based systems without worry thanks to the SDF. No fear of ruining your own system, they have safeguards to keep you from ruining the pubunix, and the BBS community is fantastic.

Please, if you consider the ability for anyone to be able to try and learn a UNIX based system please donate. It keeps this instance running and is a free educational tool. https://wiki.sdf.org/doku.php?id=how_to_donate

I have boom stands from just casually having a full PA system, but this mic isn’t really compatible. I’m now thinking of fabricating some kind of bracket that will hold it 🤔

I believe that this, particularly, is why many fast food restaurants are closing way earlier than they did several years ago. No, it isn’t because of the pandemic. It’s because someone (Gen Z) finally got fed up with the bullshit of managers dictating when they can work as opposed to a fixed schedule. No, no one should ever have to bear the burden of “picking up a shift” - that’s just shitty management and has been for around 60 years. We’ve all just bowed our heads and accepted that we need a job. Gen Z said, collectively, “Wait, what?” and the world will be better for it. Under no circumstance should someone ever be forced to work 2nd shift one day and early mornings the next.

Ok, honestly, this does look perfect. Thanks a lot for the specific recommendation. I’ll leave this post up for a bit in case someone comes up with something better. I’m willing to build one, but for the budget and features I need this seems ideal.

Thanks a ton for the links! Plastic frames are fine for me since, I don’t intend to twist or bend a keyboard ever. I’ll look into this.

Editing to add: Keychron seems to be completely sold out of 100% boards. That’s disappointing :( Edit on top of the edit: The site just doesn’t work well with my browser. I have to search for the model individually.

Thanks. The replaceable switches could mean a lot. At the least, I could try to resell the ones I don’t like.

I’m stuck on a desktop condenser mic and don’t have a boom, so that really factors in. I should have added that to the post. That means that not only the clack of the keys is important, but also the vibration they may cause. Modern noise filters can do a lot, but I’m not sure if they can do that much. I’ll check out keychron stuff - thanks!

Just run it through a synth as a MIDI file. Seems appropriate.

It’s insidious!

I am in NW GA. We occasionally get some fallout from hurricanes here, but I’m not sure how long it’s been since I’ve seen this much rain, and at time of writing there’s still time before the actual storm(s?) hits.

My biggest gripe with Organic Street Maps (and every OSM) client that I’ve tried is that I can’t find a way to display the destination address when I get close. I do some delivery work and that drives me crazy. Otherwise, it’s great.

Thanks for the reminder. Ordered mine.

They’re also relatively cheap and quite durable.

It can still happen, but usually at the customer’s request/requirements. We actually use inches at a much smaller scale, but use decimals instead of fractions.

I remember finding xkcd fairly early on (around 50 or so). The fact that it’s almost at 3,000 now blows my mind. I hope Randall has something awesome planned.
