For sure. Not hating on tearing your own apart. For me I didn't have the keyboard already and it felt super wasteful to buy one new just to destroy it. Cheaper too in that case as well.

The battery life on mine isn't as great as a new keyboard, but it's still plenty fine.

It allows you to keep touch ID while using your own keyboard. I personally hate typing on an apple keyboard.

Now I have a mechanical keyboard I like and still have touch ID.

I bought the apple keyboard broken on eBay. So saved a bit of e-waste and saved money too.

Man, opening up that keyboard was super tough even with the ifixit opener. Well worth it to scavenge the fingerprint sensor though.

I prefer bare metal, but have one of my instances as a VM which is my remote backup location.

This post brings me back 15 years when I used to work as a recording engineer.

I still have a near one of a kind compressor that I feel bad just having it collect dust but I can't bare to part with it

Sometimes I see this content on YT and it seems like a subject I might be half interested in. I have to make myself actively avoid it though as I don't want the algorithm to just constantly feed me this negatively because I clicked a video once.

Nice. I recently switched to self hosted rustdesk from Parsec for my RDP needs. Been pretty happy with it.

It's been especially nice how easy it is to transfer files between machines.

I just got mine yesterday. Looking forward to testing it out.

I actually bought an older pi to do just this but never got around to setting it up (too many distractions).

Looking forward to the video.

Thanks for the tip. Will have to look into this.

This one has a special place for me as it's the first one I bought with my own money from working.

In a related note, I discovered yesterday I can't say "Norse mythology" without a strange lisp that I don't have otherwise.

This was my childhood.

Also, I had the cheesiest strategy in C&C Gold multiplayer.
