I was introduced to The FP back in 2011 thanks to a now defunct podcast. Having recently rewatched the film, and since the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th films are free in the U.S. on Tubi, I figured it was time to rewatch Beats of Rage and then finally check out the next 2 films. Still love The FP, still enjoy Beats Of Rage, and so far…...

I have both an OG model M and a unicomp model M mini. They both feel great and seem to have zero issues. My first model M was a 1987 and I used a string of pigtail adapters to get it from AT to USB and while it didn’t start working until my OS started booting, it was my favorite of all time. It got lost after we went work from home during COVID and they had a moving company pack our desks up. There is not a day I don’t miss that keyboard.
With all that said, I don’t have any experience with the rp2040 controlled unicomps. If you can get an actual model M on the cheap, I say go with that. If not, unicomps are a fine product in my experience.
The only thing I can tell you is that if you get a keyboard with a bad membrane, it CAN be fixed but it’s a huge pain in the ass since you need to replace all the little plastic tabs on the chassis with tiny bolts.
Let’s say this goes through and they drop him from the ballot. What actually happens then? Does it just mean that he can’t get their electoral college votes?
The U.S. judge overseeing Donald Trump’s prosecution for allegedly criminally conspiring to overturn Joe Biden’s election victory said that while every American has a First Amendment right to free speech, it is “not absolute” and that even the former president’s campaign statements must yield to protecting the...
I am getting just into hand tool woodworking. This is my second attempt at dovetail joinery. I’m pretty happy with it, but feedback is welcome. I know my tails got a bit gappy. Not sure if I moved my knife wall or just did a poor job of marking.
Let me offer a different direction. FreeBSD has been around since the mid 90’s. Is damn featureful. Has a wonderful package management system. Full disclosure, I use Linux on my personal machines but FreeBSD is my server install of choice.
I based my IWNDWYT in lifting and eating healthier, and for a few months it worked, but around a month ago some things happened that made it impossible… And I’ve been failing since. Not drinking was just part of the package, so it’s completely tied with those things that I still can’t do, but I don’t know, it feels...
One of the best tool I got from therapy was learning HALT. Hungry Angry Lonely Tired. These are all triggers and being in one or more of these states is often at the root of wanting to drink. For me, StopDrinking was a good way to head off the Lonely part of that lovely barber shop quartet. Just having the knowledge that HALT is a thing and stopping for a little introspection to see if I was under any of those states went a long way to helping me in the first year of my sobriety.
After the Red Hat mess I see many people saying IBM destroys everything they touch, but I can’t think of many examples of it. Can you tell me what else IBM has destroyed after acquiring it, or something good that they themselves developed and then ruined it with stupid corporate choices?
OS/2 was poised to be a really awesome operating system. Bad decisions and poor marketing really eff’ed that up. We could have had a full GUI, multi-user OS for consumers like 10 good years earlier than we did and it likely would have curbed Microsoft’s monopoly.
& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?
Honestly, it reminds me a bit of reddit pre-digg migration. I’m kind of enjoying it. Right now, I’m using connect for my mobile access. I also don’t hate the separation that the federated servers are falling into. It seems like moderation might be a bit of a PITA but I don’t have any experience to back that up.
