I could see damage possible if pushing 5v into a data port. Quick google says red = positive, black = negative, white = data +, and green = data -.
Correct, so long and red and black are correct nothing will happen except a warning saying unknown USB device.

I think having a standardization of exposed GPU faces to allow the GPU to grab ambient air is the solution.
That was how the NCase N1 works, except it's sucking from underneath, giving a buffer on the noise compared to sucking from the front and it didn't require any extension or anything.

This is basically real life. Modern corporate work culture is exactly as represented in the show.

They pay you a salary, what's not said up-front is we're then also signed up to the blind allegiance towards the imperialist structure.

If my company makes bombs for israel so they can genocide the palestinians, so be it. I have to feed my kids, who will also sell their souls into the same machine.  To work for the company or country, is then identical to removing pieces of yourself, your virtues, your empathy, your capacity for love.

Exactly like the show.

Not about keyboards, politics, or global warming - for a change.

I saw Season 1 - creepy AF!

But I will have to find out what happens, after that extremely compelling cliffhanger.

Now that I have had a few years to binge on multiple "back issues" that I never caught the first time 'round, having to wait a week between "fixes" seems so so 20th century.

If you haven't watched it, I highly recommend it!

If you are intrigued by those computers and those keyboards - those ones are nice replicas of old computer - Data General 6053 terminal, or Dasher D2.

Doom eternal, too much or too little platforming? Thoughts.
You ever played the Yakuza games? Think they'd be right up your street.

On the to play list.


Infinite Wealth is a very good game. After the first 2 hours of setting up the story(yeah, it takes that long for every Yakuza game) the game basically turns into like 75 different mini games that are all quite fun and easy to get sidetracked with for a week.

I think Yakuza games get better and better as they lean more into ridiculousness and absurdity.

The only thing missing is a killer set of novelties. I love the color scheme, but for me what makes a purchasing decision a no brainer is a solid theme that carries through to the novs as well.

Considering her life and history, some ideas that come to mind would be:
  • Birds
  • Paper/Wax wings
    • Bernoulli numbers
    • A simplified icon of Babbage's analytical engine
