My first thought was OLKBs Planck or Preonic. There is also a copy cat on AliExpress. I have a Planck and I get super lost in the sauce without having a super different F and J key. The height also kills me without a big wrist rest. I’ve since moved over to a diy board using Choc or the even lower X switches My Board.
Those are some pretty great looking keebs! Thank you for sharing. Who ever was memeing with the green cat board, I absolutely love it!
I am new to the fediverse, and could have misconfigured my docker image. But, I have de-sync issues the same way. What I started doing is browsing other Lemmy instances directly. Because my subscription does not seem to pull all content and all comments. It picks and chooses to sync about 4 or 5 post out of the ~50 a day from my 6ish different subscriptions.
I am not totally sure how the software talks back and forth between instances. But, it seems like a huge issue if instances don’t have a feature to stay in sync.
2006 Our Highschool had “recycled” some of the older machines and it started from there.
A Dell Optiplex GX1 500MHz, with 128mb of ram, and a 80gb IDE HHD. Installed Debian Sarge, This was running a dial-up gateway for our home network as well as samba.
It allowed one machine to be the LANs internet connection, abet slow. Samba was so I could download installers once, and then pull them from the network drive.
2008-2012 that machine was a dedicated WordPress machine. Around 2019 I pulled it out of the closet and powered it up. The whole site was there, still ran without a hiccup. It was actually recycled shortly after that, Dell used to make great hardware.
To add to this, could also be a cold or cracked solder joint making intermittent connection.
If you get desperate, you can look at reflow options. I know the old Xboxs people would bake. Best to just take a look at the solder joints for all the connectors. Are they still shiny? Or dull and cracked?
I believe Cloudflair tunnels is free. That’s where my comment was rooted.
In the time since your Das Keyboard, a lot has changed in the space. My favorite change since the OG days of MX, Low profile switches.
I think keeping your wrist as flat as possible feels better. Personally I am off the deep end making DIY ergonomic boards. When I am doing CAD or gaming it’s best to use a full size board for speed. If you search Amazon for “low profile mechanical keyboard”, you will see many examples.
I have a ten keyless and full size ANSI (brown) and my GF has a ten keyless ISO (blue). They are all different brands, but quality is good enough for a comfortable daily use.
Keychron makes some nicer high end boards, but I have not personal tried them
I every so often see people on FB/marketplace selling keyboard projects. I know geekhack.org has a classifieds section.
The other day I was thinking, wht is there not a craigslist like option listed on awesome-selfhosted?
I use a VPS, not Cloudflair, but it’s the exact same concept.
CF will have an exposed IP that you point your domains A record to. On your CF instance, you would then tunnel (I’m guessing they offer wireguard) into your home network, just like you are currently doing from your personal device.
A big difference here is you will put a reverse proxy on CF that will authenticate SSL with users. The proxy then will pass unencrypted http down the tunnel for your web services to respond to.
A couple days ago, someone asked (I think on this instance), “can you protect yourself from your VPS?”, which I think would be your next question.
<Opinion>I pay for a VPS, because if it’s free, you or your data is some how the product. </Opinion>
Just did the math out of curiosity. NVMe averages 4000mb/s (worst case) SATA averages 600mb/s (best case)
It would take about 7 disks to get nearly the same speeds.
Average 4TB NVMe seems to be about 200-250$ 8x cheap as dirt 512MB SSD seems to be about 240$
So if you do not have an NVMe slot on your old mobo but do have 8x spare SATA slots, you could get the same or .5 TB less of space at nearly the same speed, for nearly the same price. You would gain the added benefits of raidZ1 on ZFS, something NVMe on one slot does not give.
This also gets pretty interesting because those could be cheap 1TB disks and you now have 7-8TB of space for around 320$ (depending on raid)
I think it comes down to what kind of motherboard the user has and if they want raid for uptime/disaster recovery.
I am not sure exactly how that kit goes together, but you can really use anything non conductive. If you take the back plate off you can use a vinyl sticker/tape of any kind. Once you put the back case back on it would do a nice job form fitting and staying even after the tape loses its stick.
