I’m getting tired of the extremely loud ads on that don’t seem to be subject to the old TV broadcasting laws that prevent them from being blasted 10db louder than the actual content.

This was my first time soldering and it went pretty well. On booting it up the LEDs weren't working on one side and one key wasn't registering, a quick hit with the iron got it going fine.
I've been on Colemak for around 3 years lol. I liked the look of the Ergodash since it almost has everything you need on a base layer. But I can add duplicate options on other layers if I feel like it
I bought it here https://keebd.com/en-us/products/ergodash-keyboard-kit?variant=41478496616600 It comes with PCBs, a simple case, and all the necessary components apart from the controllers which I got a better deal for a 3 pack of clones on Amazon. They also carry the optional underglow LEDs and Arduino pro micro hot swap headers and pins.
For these DIY keyboards you could also just buy PCBs on their own and work out a parts list from the build guide. Maybe 3D print a case for it.
I also used Mill-Max sockets for the switches so I can remove them anytime, Durock Silent Shrimp switches, and DSA Hana keycaps.
If you just attach every object to the global coordinate system instead of each other that bug can't happen. Could be less convenient for larger projects though

It would be less of a problem. But most of the media I consume is younger than that, and yet it is still at risk of going away at any moment. Nobody wants to even sell digital copies, except for the ones on CD, DVD, etc. Most of the time your only option is a “license” to access it, or a monthly subscription. A couple of years ago I “bought” the new Blade Runner on Google Play. Turns out now you can only watch above 480p on their approved devices. Which does not include my PC, my main device. The same goes for the streaming services, you get shafted on quality if you aren’t using a “smart” tv.
Looking around for trackers that do stl files and/or other stuff for 3d printing. Specifically I’m hoping for rpg minis and the like but if I can find a tracker that does printable objects, I’m happy to help start a mini community.
I just learned about this bill for 3D printer background checks. What a joke. Making your own plastic parts in the shape of a gun is not at all the same thing as actually building one from scratch. Yet another case of legislators knowing zero about the actual issues at hand, or purposefully avoiding them
