Off Topic / Re: This year may be biblical
« Last post by tp4tissue on Sun, 05 May 2024, 09:18:08 »Noooo. Not the Durian!!
""Extreme heat has gripped much of south and south-east Asia over recent weeks, killing dozens of people, forcing millions of students to miss school and destroying crops.
Both the Philippines and Bangladesh shut schools due to the unbearable heat last month, while governments across the region have issued health warnings. In Thailand, at least 30 people have died from heatstroke since the start of the year.
The extreme weather has seen durian fruit burst on trees in Thailand, destroyed rice crops and caused eggs to shrink, according to local media. ""

Off Topic / PSA, Dithering, color correction
« Last post by tp4tissue on Sun, 05 May 2024, 09:07:46 »If Ne'y'all use color correction, AMD is *infinity* times better than Nvidia.
Nvidia's dithering setup is a tediously manual reg edit, and it often breaks and just stops working, requiring reboot. It breaks whenever you unplug the monitor, or when the screen goes into power save, again, you have to reboot, or log-out,log-in, reloading the whole driver and startup tasks. If the computer detects an edid blip, the dithering will again break. Certain applications will turn it off, and it can't reload unless you reboot.
AMD, set it and forget it, JUST WORKS. It's ridiculous that Nvidia can't fix this, it's been a complaint for over 10 years. This means something is deeply wrong with their pipeline such that they can't implement a fix.

Keyboards / Re: Is someone here, who quit the hobby and is only lurking now?
« Last post by Rhienfo on Sun, 05 May 2024, 07:31:08 »It's pretty natural for people to lose interest in hobbies, especially ones that are as materialistic as keyboards can be. I'm still wanting keyboards, but I doubt I will be actively purchasing keyboards in a few years, cause there really is only a few things I really want from this hobby. I'll definitely still be in the hobby if it's around (which I feel it will still be), like helping people or still rebuilding or building boards for other people (and of course resin for me)
plus I will probably still be talking to a lot of the cool people I have met in this hobby.
I feel like if you want to regain your passion in this hobby, you will need to engage more with in the diy aspect of the hobby. Creating cases - handwiring etc. If you've done that and you're still not fulfilled, just move onto something that you feel is worth your time, there really is no shame about it.
I don't really think a nicotine addiction is a very good comparison, it's not like keyboards chemically alter your brain to want more keyboards or something like that.

Keyboards / Is someone here, who quit the hobby and is only lurking now?
« Last post by erretter on Sun, 05 May 2024, 06:04:30 »We know the memes "It's a money grave" "you can't stop" "it's an addiction" "it's a rabbithole". From my very own experience I can tell: This is all true (to a degree).
So did anybody really quit? I'm trying to slow things down, because too much other stuff is going on in my life, but it's really hard. Since I never smoked, I can't really compare this, but I feel like this is like quitting for a nicotine addict.

« Last post by erretter on Sun, 05 May 2024, 06:01:26 »Just wanted to add the Laneware 67. I build this for my wife 2 years ago. and it is great!
Recently I heard that Laneware has abondoned his shop and is not shipping anything, despite the store still beeing online and showing in stock.
However these are rumors. I don't know how true or not this is. Better do some research.
