  • I'm a keyboard guy.Also, I intend on using the same nKRO keyboard for Elite Dangerous, X4, Nanotale and other games.It's not very frequently, that I notice a ghosting problem, but over time, it has become bad enough for me to want one.

    I actually bought one, recently. ANT Esports, Mechanical, 24 KRO with anti-ghosting. Took about an hour to realise, it was false advertising.Even normal key combinations, which worked on a cheap Dell 100, didn't work on this.So, waiting to get a good one.

  • Oopsie! You're right. No way.

  • Should've Open Sourced the CENC. Now they pay the price.Everyone* saw it coming.

  • On .LAN domains, how to stop firefox switching to https (when it's not available) and stop complaining about self-signed certificates when it is available ?

    Jump

  • For the certificate errors, just add a root CA of your own making.Disabling auto-https, no idea. Maybe fix the source?

  • I'd rather switch to a lock that doesn't lock automatically and captures the key, when open.

    Ok, the latter is probably a bad idea for a fixed lock. Works pretty well for a padlock.

  • So, unless you die of it, there are no repercussions to someone blatantly coughing at your face, again and again, despite protests.

    I don't feel sorry for anyone doing that.

  • solar PV → heat pump → water heater; direct, no A/C or intermediate components. Practical? Feasible?

    Jump

  • It’s just easier to have all your home run on AC.

    Nice point.

    If all appliances had a DC mode, or even an AC+DC mode ^[smells of inefficiency, but I didn't do the maths] by default, this would be something worth working up for.But if you are doing it just for a single appliance, guess it's better to just connect the Solar power output to your AC grid, the way others do.

    Also, solar water heaters seem to be more efficient in this regard ^[no PV, larger spectrum used (even IR) and directly converted to heat, instead of light -> electric -> heat], so if your use case is only water heating, just add that next to your overhead tank, and let the heat pump work separately.

  • Why I Prefer Exceptions to Error Values

    Jump

  • I was making a shared library at work and was recently asked to start throwing exceptions, because the users wouldn't care to check my returned error and just continue with the empty returned data.Well, now they will most probably have an empty catch block and continue doing what they did before.

  • What’s your “I can’t believe other people don’t do this” hack?

    Jump

  • Firefox will still cause a paste though, so you have to disable it separately over there.

  • Toxic can be used to refer to something that will slowly damage the body in some way.e.g. tobacco smoke, which doesn't kill you right away, but slowly turns you into a zombie, by destroying your mental ability and cause faster ageing.Another, is Lead (Pb), which lead to the destruction of the Roman empire.

    Depends upon who takes it first.If VAs don't make it efficient for themselves, their clients will make it so and the one who does it, gets to pocket the savings.
