For what it’s worth, QMK/VIA/Vial all work on Linux. A few years ago the docs were not complete and I remember I had to run

echo ‘PATH=“$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH”’ >> $HOME/.bashrc && source $HOME/.bashrc

but on my last install I followed the docs and I guess they are complete currently(or rather I am no longer on a janky system). So basically probably almost anything QMK based is gonna work on Linux. I have 2 Cantor Remixes, A Sweep36, a Ferris Sweep, a Planck, and an XD75 all running Vial which is a similar QMK fork as VIA with a GUI. And they all run fine on Mint with zero issues. I can plug an play on any other system too since the boards used firmware instead or relying on an installed software.

If you want a cheaper option, The Anne Pro 2 has a Linux build of their software but soldered switches so you are stuck with stock. But the board isn’t great, ngl.

For quiet switches, you won’t get a silent clicky switch but if you want the tactile bump and don’t mind it not being as “snappy”, look into something like Gazzew Boba U4. The stems have rubber feet that cushion the noise. You can check YT videos for sound comparisons. They won’t be as good as real world examples but you can get an idea. For chocs, They just released a brand new line of silent v1 switches. The 2 linear variants are already out but the silent Sunset version, which is the low profile equivalent of the Boba, is gonna be out soon. I daily the original Sunsets and they are easily my favorite switch.

I grew one so people would stop thinking I’m 12.

I’d like Hitler a lot more if he only killed 5,940,000 Jews instead of 6,000,000

Not to boths sides it or whatever but why do they both use this rhetoric when the other guy is in office? During the height of the pandemic when shelves were empty a lot of people were like “this is what america would look like under socialism” but like my dude, this is what it’s like NOW.

But also fuck both sides. Joe is just as much of a loser as Donald.

To further expand on this, it also cracks me up when people say “communism sounds good on paper but it will never work”. Like motherfucker, capitalism doesn’t even make sense on paper but we doing it, aren’t we? Someone explain unlimited growth with limited resources to me please.

I live in the Panhandle and it’s a hilarious satire on existence. People go to church and talk about community and family, but cheat on their spouses and screech about hyper individualism all the time. They threaten to shoot you with their “come and take it” guns for sneezing too close to their property but then if we get a bunch of snow dumped on us and traffic goes to shit, without fail, the good ol boys in their lifted trucks are all over the high way pulling stuck cars out of the snow. It’s bizarre.

But when you state that the US does same or worse you get slapped with the big ol’ “but that’s whataboutism!”

I think the only logical thing is for CA to add pronouns and make them mandatory.

Does FB, Insta, Zitter, Google, MicroShit, Discord, Github, etc. all have to divest as well? No? So they can just keep harvesting our data? ok

I went to school for programming and left a political nerd. I could have learned all the programming in my free time, on my own. Which is what I mostly did since my professors sucked. It was $70,000 for me to learn that the political system in the US fucking sucks. I got stuck with crippling debt for learning that this system only cares about the rich elite. I enjoy the irony for what it’s worth.

Kids, don’t stay in school.

This doesn’t make sense. I keep getting told communism don’t like the gays so communism is bad and capitalism is good because you get to have cars and 1000 types of Hershey candy bars.

Me and dumb compact design blueprints on Dyson Sphere Program. I’ve had to tear parts of builds down an embarrassing amount of times to get unstuck because of the way hitboxes on refactionators and a few other buildings work in close proximity.

Are they using the same AI that crawled my GitHub repos to be smarter? Because this actually tracks.

We should vote harder.

The radical centrist has entered the debate: “Look, all’s I’m saying is that some genocide is, like, way better than a lot of genocide. So we should vote for the little genocide feller instead of the lot of genocide feller. It’s what Jesus would have wanted. And like, there’s clearly no other option than killing an entire group of people.”

I’ve been filing out 20-50 apps weekly for 6 months. I have actual experience too. I’m still unemployed. But I have double depression, double burnout from trying to get a job and keep up with both programming and IT/networking, I am also in shutdown-lite™️ mode, have meltdowns 3-5 times a week and cry 2-3 times a day. I’m a 40 year old man and we have 2 kids and a single income(teacher salary). Can I go viral too?

I want Jellyfin’s OpenSubtitles plugin to work for me.
