I, for one, super trust the self reporting of the oil and gas industry.

That does help. One of the things on my to do list was setting up a backup system anyway, so maybe I’ll play with that. Thanks!

Thanks, that’s really helpful. It can be hard to tell between commands and acronyms in conversation with familiarity

This is looking like a good option, thanks!

The old drives are fine, just either too small or too slow, so it sounds like it may be an option

Any help with the acronyms? I’m still pretty new to Linux

That’s fair, if you’re just looking for RGB control and don’t care about mechanical switches or macro keys and stuff, then I would check out what @JTheFox@lemmy.world said about openrgb and see what works and is a decent price.

I’m partial to corsair right now, and have had Razer stuff in the past. Both ate fine, though still probably (at least slightly) overpriced for what you get. Either way, I don’t think you’ll regret any of the big makers.

Keyboards in general? Or RGB keyboards? I think all keyboards work fine for core functionality. It depends on what you are looking for out of a “gaming” keyboard. The big makers mostly have alternative software to program rgb and re-keybinds for keys as far as I’ve seen. I know corsair has a good alt software for both binds and rgb, Razer obviously from this post, and I think steelseries has one but can’t remember off the top of my head

Or a dull knife lol

Agreed, I’d take a square and a story stick of sorts over a tape measure

Sadly it’s more common than I’d like everywhere I’ve worked too

I’ll be honest, I’m a bit jealous of his confidence.

My journey into it started as I was getting out of religion. Listening to debates about religion had several general philosophy references, so I read about those topics. I had some conversations with a buddy claiming “that’s Marxist, that’s Socialist” whatevers, and I wanted to learn what those things actually meant and why they scared so many people etc. Basically me not meshing with the ideological beliefs of my peers sent me down some deep rabbit holes lol.

No doubt, but (as a new “convert”) most places aren’t really set up for a proper plant based meal around me. There are a few options, but if I go out with the family or something I’m delgated to a plate of plain veggies or a pointless salad lol. I hope at least some day that a plant based chicken is as ubiquitous as the impossible/beyond patty

That’s pretty cool, I’m just hoping more plant based “chicken” options come to north America. I missed the window to try the McPlant, and it’s a little annoying there’s only really “beef” options.

I can see it being a new idea being greenlit, but based on what it turned out to be, I would agree lol

I had no idea it even got a second season tbh

Well that was anticlimactic, but I appreciate the information

I’m probably missing something, but what are the two bumps in December and Feb from?

Against some better judgement, I did direct burial. I did consider walkie talkies, but heard doesn’t work well in a metal barn (I confirmed I basically have zero cell reception). I could look at adding the antenna though, thats not a bad idea.
