I'm currently working on a keyboard with a pico, and am not the most experienced at working with microcontrollers. It's crazy how much easier it is for me to do things on the pico then the old standard, the pro micro. I can just h

They have for the most part. It comes up occasionally now, and for the most part they're still as unfocused as normal. They rotate in people all the time which is fine. The last few episodes have been weirdly a lot about Taxes but the

I use a keyboard similar to yours (Sofle V2) and I've found I don't really have a problem switching between them. I pretty regularly can type on both it, and my normal macbook keyboard without much thought given to it. Only occasi

Split space keyboards are a thing, though not as common. One of the reasons I ended up with a split ergo board was to increase the use of my thumbs on the keyboard.

Honestly I think people also underrate how fun it is to add on to existing sets. This is harder to do with technic sets, but for the traditional block stuff it was easy enough to build the set to instructions and just keep building. I'

I'd also wonder if their cost per part on the bigger sets is higher or lower. I've been building the adult sets over the last few years and you're right it's a nice nondigital way to unwind. Unlike my job everything work

I've found it works better on my ereader then my screen. More about consumption than writing. Monospaced serifed fonts with lots of colors are better for programming for me.

One thing I've always liked is when people use the formatting their messaging client provides. Making points in bulleted lists, paragraph breaks, proper linking are all great. Another good one is if you have multiple questions to split

A lot of them (Discord, Slack, etc) will also let you use shift-enter as a way to go down a line without sending.

There's also the accidents happen thing. Sometimes the wheel slips, sometimes you didn't quite think the crack was as offset, sometimes the wind blows unexpectedly and causes you to swerve. It's not just the people pushing it

I did the same, both in distance and the switching to ebike. I realized that I didn't want to end up in the hospital and I was at a much higher chance riding it then not. I had moved and the roads were a higher speed limit, and not smo

I'm sorta terrified of this. I know more then one rider that broke bones, or got other injuries from the official version of these just randomly conking out. A DIY version made by a lot of people seems even more likely. Also seems supe

If you need to stop super fast you lean back so hard you're actually dragging the tail. There's a reason a lot of people put additional plastic armor on the bottom of these things.

I put about 2400 miles on mine. You fall a few times in your first 100-200 miles but after that it really doesn't happen much, and normally only when you do something stupid.

It's for legal reasons in a lot of places. Most places have laws about the max speed of motor powered devices. It's normally around twenty. I've gone up to 24 MPH (on flat) when I had one, and have hit the ground going twenty

I like a mixture of fiction and nonfiction podcasts. It's harder to say specific episodes for fictional ones without spoilers. But I'll try. The Magnus Archives wrapped up it's 200 episode run this year, and it's worth a

There's different types of drug users. Almost everyone I knew whose done heroin was a polydrug addict. Some would quit but switch to another drug. One of them came out of rehab for heroin and started injecting cocaine. They were all ru

Those aren't insulated at all. You need to spend a bunch more getting that into shape to live in.

I've discovered a bunch of music through Beat Saber, and Stepmania (and Mungyodance). The problem with that is there is a sort bias with the track selection. For example I enjoy the gameplay of SDVX but it's hard to find music for

Agreed on Tales from the Loop. I don't think anyone I know has seen this, as it's not very flashy and it's relegated to Amazon Prime video. But I enjoyed it and encourage others who like the "Living with the technology g

Head turning is actually why I have a vertical monitor. With a 1440p next to a 1080, I'd have to turn my head a ton to see it all. Now with my 1080p vertical less movement. It also nice that webpages like being above 1000 pixels wide,

There's a trend in modern SEO to essentially manufacturer things like jetpen's blogs. Amazon is actually already doing this by giving "Editorial recommendations". Other sites have ideas pages. I'd wonder if Amazon i

I switched to Emby for these reasons. It works like Plex did six or seven years ago. The one downside is they charge for the android tv app, but otherwise I haven't run into many problems. It seemed a bit more feature complete then Jel

Interestingly there is a version of this font for programming (OpenDyslexic Mono) for some reason I find it harder to read in that context. This font honestly works the best on my Kindle, where I'm reading large chunks of text. On the

One thing that's concerned me about ebikes is helmets. I ride one that can pretty easily handle 25, and if a person is using an old helmet from preMIPs, or has been through a crash that's not going to offer enough protection at th

Legally in the Boston area nothing with a motor is supposed to go on bike paths. It was a law put in place in the 80s to prevent people on mopeds from using bike paths. The end result is rarely enforced from my own experience and from what
