Sometimes a flashlight just isn't enough. The Flying Sun 1000 drone system was designed with that fact in mind, as it uses 288 airborne LEDs to light up the night like the alien mothership from Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Nice! I was lucky to have extra drives when I switched to Linux on my PC, haven't done it on a laptop yet. Do you just back up all your data to an external SSD/HD beforehand or go the partition route?

Yeah, said I had to buy a tpm module for my mobo to upgrade to win11. My steam deck works so well running arch based Linux I searched "gaming arch Linux" in DuckDuckGo and installed CachyOS. Easier and cleaner than installing windows 10 when I built my PC and the constant updates are awesome (they also offer long term support LTS builds). Highly recommend, I have an Nvidia 2070 Super and CachyOS has been a great upgrade from Windows 10.

Trying to justify an even bigger hank light order: how do you like the size? I'm already set on buying the DW4K and might order a couple of these to complement my surprise favorite light the DW4

Agreed, just frustrating that they wait until their corpo donors are done signing checks for a big election year. Would've been a huge game changer years ago when Dems were in control and perhaps would've proven everyday Americans support progressive policies

 

Donald Trump waving at Americans flipping him off with the text "I'm banning paper straws" above his waving hand and the text "FUCK YOU TURTLE KILLER" on the Americans Bender from Futurama holding a turtle and pointing at a crowd while shouting "No one insults the turtles"

Wicked! I've only purchased Hanklights up until now, so a new brand would be very interesting!

? Worker protections don't prevent the employer from relocating. The US has become more of an oligarchy than ever, that's why the pigs at the top can move operations to states that are worse for their employees and get away with it, e.g. Tesla moving to Austin.

Correlation doesn't imply causation: people move to red states for work because employers flock to red states, e.g. caterpillar moving from MI to TX for fewer worker protections. Given the choice, everyone would choose better worker protections and union rights and therefore blue states, but us working class folks don't have the luxury of waiting around for the perfect job opportunity in a blue state.

Blue states always have the best consumer protections! We need more working class candidates to get all the establishment cronies out of office and protect Americans from exploitation from the oligarch class

Sure doesn't seem baseless. There's still a lot of anti-LGBTQ violence in the USA, and trans folks especially have been targeted at a federal level. Wouldn't blame 'em for wearing a plate or carrying a pack with a plate while they're armed

? Why decry gun ownership now? I thought the conservative party was about small government, fiscal responsibility, and the 2nd amendment?

Glad life is going better for you these days! I'm sure your kiddo is proud of you for moving on

 

Recently switched from windows 10 to Debian 12.5 bookworm since I have a unique setup (Nvidia 2070S GPU, 2 1080p monitors, Dell Canvas, and TV) and the default inclusion of Nvidia proprietary drivers and years of Wacom support have made everything workable (nearly out of the box!).

However, touch still isn't great. It works well in Xournal++ and decently in Krita, but struggles everywhere else as a mouse input.

I'm considering hopping to Pop OS! once a stable version of their much anticipated COSMIC DE launches since I love the upgrades over GNOME.

Anybody running a pen display similar to the Dell Canvas on Pop OS! that can speak to it's support for pen and touch input?

 

Howdy!

I have a keeb.io cepstrum split board that I'd like to travel with when I head into the office. Anybody have good experiences with a carrying case they could recommend? My cepstrum is 8 inches / 20.5 cm by 4.5 inches / 11 cm for reference.
