Thanks for the advice, I will probably go this way.

export PATH=$PATH:/mypath1:/mypath2 in ~/.profile. Means "add :/mypath1:/mypath2 to what is already in $PATH." If you need the entire system to be aware, set or update it in /etc/environment with PATH=...

Good call on used, thanks. What would be a fair price range for one in perfect condition?

I'm planning on getting back into VR, and I definitely prefer having lighthouses (also linux). Is there any HMD that I should be looking at, or is the Index still a good all-rounder?

A few entire floors dedicated to pro bono immigration attorneys.

You know, in hindsight, you'd have to be an idiot to turn down being Trump's lawyer. Absolutely tons of money, and you'll have no moral worries when you decide to intentionally throw the case.

Absolutely. The only difference is that the benefits aren't imaginary, they are quite tangible.

Btw plastic bottles are also bad for you. BPA was the worst endocrine suppressor of them all but, make no mistake, all plastics are endocrine suppressors. BPA just wound up being the scapegoat. Microplastics in our blood aside, whatever you put into plastic will end up being a vehicle for toxins. While eating/drinking from plastic is really bad, one doesn't usually appreciate the surface area of our skin.

Plastic is only safe for surfaces that we rarely interact with.

Slow chargers are really hard to fuck up, you're good with almost anything. That being said, slow charging is 10w - so you already have what you need.

As opposed to the human-made brain melting videos?

That explains the felony charges

Missed opportunity to call it Muhummanoid

 

The really nice thing about them is that they accept 3v3 logic when being powered by 5v. Although that usually works with the WK6812, it's technically out of spec and I have read about this causing stability issues. They are also pretty low power, 12mA at max brightness (these are at 1/32).

They are reverse-mount, so you don't have to be concerned about keycaps colliding with LEDs.

Firmware is still definitely a WIP, as is the motherboard (the keyboards are i2c daughter boards as per my previous post). I have switched to embassy-rs, which is way more ergonomic than embedded-hal - async rust makes tons of sense for embedded dev. I'm also going to be printing blank shields for the RPi Picos, to hide that green a little better.

If you've been putting off designing your own keeb, I strongly recommend it. It's really rewarding.

 

Now I have to patiently wait for them to ship. I'm not shy about the Sweep inspiration.

The goal is to have it be modular, with a central controller board. I'm going to eventually use these with paracord cables to hot-plug different types of keyboards (the first will most likely be a gaming keyboard on the left). I'm looking for less bulky magnetic connectors if anyone knows a source. Definitely not considering a TRRS, as I don't think my GPIOs should be mainlining 5V during hotplugging.

The controller is still being prototyped on a breadboard. I have already experienced the woes of hot-plugging I2C on the prototype boards (stuck bus and all), so I'm going to experiment with the TCA4307.

The firmware is being developed in Rust, though haven't pushed it anywhere yet.
