Tuxedo Laptops?

I am looking for a new computer and am considering a Tuxedo Laptop. Do you know how easy they are to repair and upgrade? I enjoy my Fairphone too much to her an unrepairable Notebook.

Warum tun sich viele Menschen mit Verbesserung der Stuhlgang-Erfahrung schwer?
  • Ich liebe unser Washlet. Die Idee habe ich vor vielen Jahren aus Japan mitgebracht. Unbezahlbar wertvoll wurde das Washlet, als mein Kind sich beide Unterarme gebrochen hatte. Es war ein unverhefftes Stück Freiheit und Selbständigkeit unter widrigsten Umständen.

  • What is a niche hobby of yours that you are fascinated by and would like to share with others?
  • No, sorry. We are playing Age of Rebellion rules during the Old Republic, because the children wanted to be Jedi.

  • Wie Knirschschiene/Aufbissschiene tagsüber aufbewahren?
  • Ich habe einen Teller, auf dem lasse ich die Schiene nach dem Abspülen trocknen. Für Transport habe ich meinem Sohn eine alte Zahnspangendose geklaut.

  • I second with Vampire: The Masquerade, The Dark Eye, Shadowrun and StarWars RPG in my family. Teach your kids to play and they will never have time or money to waste on drugs. ;)

    100% Keychron Q6 Neo2
  • I got them made at WASD Keyboards. They have a prepared design file for 104 key ISO (and some more layouts) you can use. My board carries 108 keys, but I don't mind the programmable keys looking different than the main set.

    Quality wise, they look good, and I like the slightly rough feel. "Side print" is Qwerty in my own hand, with acrylic marker, for the kids. Profile is Cherry.

  • 100% Keychron Q6 Neo2

    My new custom WASD keycaps with NEO2 legends have arrived. I wanted nicely readable legends for the layers I used most, not for all as the predesigned caps offered. I also had problems with the color coding, which emphasized the wrong layers.

    At the beginning, I had plans to turn my own handwriting into letters, but that proved too much of a task for the time I had, so I just went with stock symbols and Comic Sans.

    I also considered having black keycaps, but after I studied up on the finer points of laser printing on dark base colors - bright colors require a white underprint -, I decided to go with colors on wite for crisp outlines.

    All in all I am very happy with the result. My children begged me to give them a chance, so I hand wrote QWERTZ legends on the sides.

    Linux Laptop for (student) programmer

    As the title says, I am currently learning to be a programmer, and my tablet does not suffice for the job.

    I have already finished a small MEAN-Stack application for learning Typescript, learned some Java syntax (I expect nothing more exciting than a sorting algorithm, but exam language is Java, so...) and the next stop will most likely be plain vanilla C to learn about handling hardware.

    Windows I hate with a passion, and I don't know squat about Macs, so I am thinking of getting myself a decently sized laptop for a sensible Linux install.

    History (I started my Liux journey with SuSE Linux 4.4.1, way back when) taught me to be very wary of driver issues on laptops, so I thought I could ask you for recommendations that play fair with Linux.

    (as an aside, if I could play GuildWars2 on it in the evening and attach my two big monitors when at home, that would be super cool)

    Bench cushion

    I was quite tired of having to pick up bench cushions all the time, so I invested a bit into a full sized pad and made a cover out of an old baby wrap. We are all quite nappy with this solution.

    Running a Lemmy instance

    I wonder what the stats on running a lemmy instance are.

    How much time needs to be invested, how much data storage is needed, what kind of traffic volume is to be expected?

    Keychron Q6 with Max Keycaps

    My first (and only) 100% keyboard with Gateron red switches and Max semitransparent keycaps. The QWERTY legends are on the sides, on the tops I painted NEO legends, which I prefer for work and serious writing.

    I am still looking for a print service that will make me custom legend keycaps within Europe. But I am afraid that will stay a dream.

    Password safe that runs on Linux, Win and Android

    Do you have any ideas for a password safe that stores its data locally (an encrypted cloud drive is available for synchronizing), offers clients for Linux, Win and Android and has some amenities like filling in passwords in browsers?

    My family needs to learn password safety, and I want to make it easy for them.
