4K gamestick what a piece of crap. Overheats, game freezes. They sell these things for $40, but you'd need another $25 in parts to "fix" it.

I was not happy to see this list :

"These are the areas of civil enforcement that DOJ plans to prioritize:

1. “Combatting Discriminatory Practices and Policies,” aka pursue litigation involving alleged violations of federal civil rights laws rules by executive order by recipients of federal funds, a clear shot at DEI and DEIA programs

2. “Ending Antisemitism,” aka enforcement actions against anyone who expresses opposition to Israel’s brutality against Palestinians

3. “Protecting Women and Children,” aka investigations into doctors, hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies that provide gender-related health care, mostly for transgender support but possibly including medications for abortion as well

4. “Ending Sanctuary Jurisdictions,” aka prioritize litigation to invalidate any state or local laws that don’t assist trump’s deportation squads

5. “Prioritizing Denaturalization,” aka try to revoke citizenship from as many naturalized citizens as possible so they can be deported"



"revoke citizenship" AYFKM?

I know this has been postponed, but I would love a pink 1u "B" in R1, like you've got for R4, for split backspace support.
If it's too much for the base, maybe there's an option to add it in the novelty design.

It hasn't always been obvious. Many posts from SPAM-bots have been a new thread with a repost of an existing OP.
Sometimes they haven't made sense in their context, but when they have they have often got replies from other users.

The biggest red flag is if it has been a new user posting their first post outside the New Members subforum (but sometimes spambots post there too).
Most bot accounts have had very generic usernames in full lowercase (auto-generated from some formula, probably).
The posts have often been harvested from Geekhack or Reddit. Any reference to Reddit is a red flag.

Not a fan of Neue legends, but being honest this is the first set that has a design nice enough to make me overlook that! Kitting looks great to me other than 2 things. I'd love to see a regular Esc key added to the base & an extra B added to the base or Parts Kit. Both seem like glaring omissions in a modern keycap set to me> Anyways beyond that love the set & GL moving forward with it!

Yeah surprised no Alice support with the missing extra B.

This is basically my dream EC board come to life! Always been a huge fan of the 980C & 660C (still kicking myself for selling my 660C, I did it right before everyone realized Leopold basically stopped making them & it was one of the OG ones before production got moved...). Nowadays I heavily prefer TKL & above, plus I have been itching to get some cup rubber back in my life making this right up my alley. Between so many really good customs offering EC compatibility nowadays, Cip making the PCB issue a thing of the past, Deskey & KLC offering high quality OEM replacement parts, & Dynacap doing pretty much the same but coming in much cheaper it's hard not to get caught up in the renewed EC hype TBH! Anyways GL with this moving forward Upas! Looking forward to someday having one of these in my collection! :thumb:

While a little hyperbolic there is some truth in Dead Internet Theory. Bots & AI have definitely invaded every corner of the internet & will most definitely be on any forum type site like GH. However the bulk of posts & responses are still from actual humans here. Also thankfully just like you pointed out it is pretty damn obvious which accounts are bots & which are human. While D.I.T. my eventually become a self fulfilling prophecy, especially with AI progressing as fast as it is I don't think we're there quite yet.

"Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte just ordered Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to treat cryptocurrency — a volatile and largely unregulated mess — as an asset when evaluating whether to purchase mortgages from banks.

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae support about 70% of the mortgages in the country. They don’t issue loans but instead buy up home loans and package them into mortgage-backed securities, which are then sold to private investors. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae then guarantee payments to those investors if the mortgage holder defaults.

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are likely going to have to issue loans to people partly  based on their cryptocurrency holdings. So when the cryptocurrency market collapses and homebuyers default on loans, Freddie and Fannie will have to cover the resulting losses."

Crypto was due for its predictable 4-year surge in 2025, but with everything going on in the world it likely will not happen now, or even in the next few years. All we get is the 24hr blip on inauguration day, right before everyone realized we are all totally ****ed. Trump stupidly played his hand on that with his own memecoin. Idiot.
2017 surge was great, 2021 surge was amazing, 2025 is looking less and less likely
