Yeah, I already deleted the comment because the kit is not that tragically expensive by itself (although will make a an ergo mech keyboard for about 30$ with switches and caps, european vendors are relatively costly).

How did you see this comment? I deleted it hours ago. :O

Generating custom boards is a thing?!

Is demiboy some kind of boss from dark souls?

Thank you! Im sorry if that made you worried in any way, I just really wanted the extra functionality.

Yeah, I knew the risks when I ordered it. :D I didnt really want to wait or reorder. But as I said, I also got the v1, I will have a use for the prototypes as cover if they dont work.

Thanks for your work sir!

Lol. I ordered 10 cheapino v1 boards and 10 v2. Either one I will use, the other will serve as bottom plate.

I guess the making cost of this keyboard is literally the cost of a PCB kit. You are right. I thought of doubling it.

Not sure how much more it would cost to run. If you only really talk about stuff a pi can do as well, you wont be maxing out your cores. You will use a bit more maybe. Nothing sort of whatever you only really keep in mind for monero mining.

Those zero 3W sticks have been unavailable ever since I saw it here.

My brother in christ. A used PC has powersupply, case, storage and cooling. This is about the basic kit you need for a proper pi5 experience. You can very easily hit the 100 dollar mark.

Also, most of the used business PC will have 8G RAM, which would put your little ARM funsies up to the $130 budget range.

And you would still only have 4 shitty cores, no expandability.

The meme actually means what it states. That people have money to buy Windows. Most people earn enough to buy their own OS.

It is kind of a blindspot, you cant imagine a meme actually stating people having enough money on hand. And they do, most of them earn a living.

Yeah, the sentence could have been worded better.

I just thought of something that was missing from terminal software… welp, time to get to work.

Shouldnt even talk about it. We all know it is redundant. It is so redundant of you to tell us.

The Xorg page was initially created (imported to perhaps a new wiki) in 2008 24 May in almost its current form. Wayland released Sept 30.

I think Im starting to realize why these 10%> distros are where they are. Every time I go out to try something like OpenSUSE or Fedora it is always the same kind of issues. This 0 hour “what the hell, why cant I find a basic thing” questions that come up even well into being an advanced user.

The Debian and Arch sphere are well deserved to be having the largest share these days. I guess I made a mistake throwing off Debian every time just because I wanted something “cooler”.

Thats it. That is indeed THE main issue (or ballpark of issues) of Fedora. Like it should actually be needed to get fixed to get somewhere.

With your logic Xorg documentation should have already existed and would have needed negligible refresh.

Page history indicates it hasnt chabged since 2009!

I’ll give you that, documentation compared to the Arch wiki is not as comprehensive; nothing’s as comprehensive as the Arch wiki lol

I linked the wiki page, that does not adhere to the meaning to documentation in any way shape or form.

If i’m installing a basic Fedora desktop, i’m going to their website, downloading the default ISO, and installing the default Gnome desktop. That has xorg and wayland and display drivers and all the things you need to get it running on pretty much any hardware. If i don’t want Gnome i’ll use an ISO with a different desktop, still get wayland and xorg with the default install.

I installed with the netinstall image and ticked the meta group meant to be made for a collection few Window Managers you want installed. It failed to install Xorg.

If you’re installing Fedora from the minimal install and then building the desktop (or window manager, maybe you use i3 or openbox) up from scratch like you would in Arch, you’re going about it the wrong way. You can go this route but i’m not surprised you’d run into some issues there and have to solve for missing packages (as you would in Arch too, though the Arch Wiki is much more helpful with this type of install).

I didnt want to build it up from scratch, I was only missing Xorg that I expected to be installed. I didnt even understand why it would not be installed for a Group containing X11 based WM.

Even if we argue that it should not be built from ground up, not having any way of knowing that base-x contains all the Xorg packages means that the distro lacks basic debugging capabilities if something does go haywire. But I wont go further into this because it would be ridiculous to debate this. It was a thing on every single distro 30 years ago!

Im ready for it not being as easily managable as Arch if I want to “customize”.

I didnt mean to imply it has no Arch-like documentation, I said it has NO documentation. Even wayland is arguably missing basic documentation other than a todo page and a basic short explanation.

Let me put it in perspective: You install a basic desktop. Xorg wont get installed even for a “Windows managers” group where most of the WMs are xorg based. And then I have to find how to get all the xorg packages without all the functionality that was meant to provide the needed info.

Whatever defaults or saneness it has, I just find these inexcusable faults. Im having a really hard time understanding why it would be preferred like that and I can get no answers. Neither I do for similar issues when I try something like say OpenSUSE. I kind of want to find out whether Im actually wrong.

Also the ability to unlock it.

They (allegedly temporarily) removed the software and the required server-side service to unlock the EOL Zenfone 8 (and all other phones for that matter) to install custom ROM.

Asus is walking a very thin line here including the recent motherboard BIOS fiasco.

On the other hand I have my zenfone 8 now, and it has been perfectly good for over 2 years now.
