I’m 45 and have never felt this way.

You should seek help imo. Or simply keep talking about it with others, like you attempt to do here. But less spending time online would probably help.

But… pregnancies are ten months, not nine.

Christmas season is just as good an excuse though.

I own several.

If you go the build your own route, I can highly recommend the NEO series. They are fairly cheap, very good quality, short turnaround for manufacturing. They are easy to build as well, and have most everything included already. All you’d need is a set of keycaps and switches.

Comes in 65, 70, 80 and ergo layouts currently, but who knows what else they will release next. Check regional vendors for availability.

Sorry, forgot to respond, I use fn+arrows for home/end/pgup/dn. This is why I got a pcb that was capable of accommodating the arrow cluster (dz60, bt60v2. I use a lot of combos with shift and ctrl as well to select/mark stuff and jump back and forth, so barring getting used to hjkl, I found this more comfortable.

I’m using linux too, and have boards that use the same firmware as Keychron, QMK w/ VIA compatibility. Configuring them is a no-brainer, you just need a WebHID-capable browser for https://usevia.app , which will likely be a chromium browser.

Regarding layout, you just keep the default ANSI layout on it, then change the locale via localectl to whatever you want, E.g. fi or hu, and it will assume the layout based on the ANSI mapping.

Just one thing, if you are eyeing an ISO layout, the key next to the ISO enter has to be NUHS.

Something is wrong with that link.

I’m having a really hard time explaining this to my 6yo after she heard me doing the Muttley chuckle for a good minute.

It does for me. On mobile if Wikipedia notices you are using a mobile browser, it automatically redirects you to the m. URL.

My “dealer” is a small woman from the burbs. She drives a Dodge ram or something. Pretty sure she compensates her size with that beast. One time when she rolled by my place, she parked briefly on the street across lazily while getting stuff out of the back. Back seat, not the cargo bed. That one was always empty.

Here, you’ve lost an arm: \

sipr is very strict about what it is letting connect to it. Which is why you rarely hear about breaches. Notable incidents like Manning or Snowden both involved usage of physical media, which has been severely restricted since. Plus Snowden was an admin, and not on SIPRNet, but some NSA systems.

To add, SIPRNet is entirely isolated from NIPRNet or the Internet.

So going by OP’s analogy, we should make cherry juice out of all the varieties of cherries.

I’ll allow it.

You can’t connect a star link to siprnet.

The worst a bad actor could do is constantly transmitting location and other combat data.

You’d love the southern hemisphere of Mars then. After areoforming, of course.

Yeah, XP was pretty good.

After a lot of back and forth between MSDOS/Win98SE (I used to play a lot of QuakeWorld which did not need much), I finally got an AMD Duron 800 around 2000, and someone recommend me Win2k. It was a really stable system, way ahead of its time in terms of user management and services compared to Win98SE and early XP. I think I’ve stayed on it well past it’s final release. I got sucked into WoW in 2008, so definitely had to move on by then.

I really love it on my laptop.

The only thing that scared me is its reliance on Ubuntu. I wonder if it can go beyond that some day somehow. Plus I wanted to try something different. I have no idea what I’m talking about btw.

I just really aimed for it due to the meme.

It did! I just checked and I put it (arch) on the back burner for four months.

But yes, Mint and similar easy to install distros are the way to go for someone new for sure. Probably don’t even need to move on from it ever, as long as it works.
