I’m not sure if Immich does this but it is a self-hostable Google photos replacement. It does geotagging but I’m not sure if it will break HDR for you. Might be worth while to check out.

I personally enjoy that Lemmy isn’t as popular as Reddit. It feels more home-grown and friendly because it’s not as large. That being said, contributing to and engaging with the content you enjoy is a good start. Finding a niche here can be great and there are tons of interesting communities to contribute to!

Go full tilt like I did when I switched to an Ortho and learn Colemak while you’re at it!

The Downtime Project is a pretty interesting podcast that covers some large outages and discusses their post-mortem analysises. Worth a listen IMO, very interesting stuff and some good lessons to learn.

Kind of difficult to give recommendations on where to start for resoldering, but my first hunch would be cold solder joints somewhere. I have a Kyria from splitkb that I assembled myself that had spotty LEDs on one half which turned out to be a cold joint on one of the surface mount underglow LEDs. Also had no key presses registered on a row that turned out to be a cold joint at the MCU.

As for general troubleshooting recommendations, if you can get a board schematic that would be immensely beneficial for your efforts as it would show how and to what pins of your MCU everything is connected. With that you can try to identify where the fault might be occurring (e.g. LEDs die after LED 5 in the chain) and focus your efforts before/after that area.

Failing the board schematic, you may be able to just visually see where the traces connect back to on the PCB, or you could probe it out using continuity mode on a multimeter and reverse engineer the connections.

Another thing that may aid in diagnosing where the issue lies with the double key presses is figuring out how the key matrix is laid out. For example if you’re receiving double presses on only some keys in a single row or column, the issue lies in either that row/column or the MCU pin they connect back to. Again, the board schematic would be really helpful in this regard.

Best of luck!

Crashing and burning (in a non-production environment) is an excellent motivator to develop necessary skills; being unafraid to break things and fix them when they inevitably break helps you get a deeper understanding of how the systems work, for what it’s worth.

Trying to get started with reverse engineering and binary exploitation by following this guy. My brain hurts, but in a good way!

I think this may more for acute vertigo, but have you tried the Epley maneuver?

Amazing work!

Not…not quite like that lol. Interesting nonetheless, but I don’t think even if I qualified I would volunteer lol.

This appears to be a variation of the “standwich.” Please see the attached for an example.

I have a Keybow Mini with this firmware installed to send API calls to turn on/off some of my smart home devices. I just wish that the firmware was a little easier to program lol.

I loved that book growing up and was so excited when the movie was coming out (on my birthday!)

To this day, that movie is the only one I legitimately walked out of. It was such a terrible adaptation.

Running an RKE cluster as VMs on my ceph+proxmox cluster. Using Rook and external ceph as my storage backend and loving it. I haven’t fully migrated all of my services, but thus far it’s working well enough for me!

I generally try to stay out of the “YouTube Drama” space but it feels bad to have LTT mixed into it. I will have to give this one a watch and get back to you, when I opened it up I didn’t realize it had an hour and fifty runtime 🤣

Gorgeous cat…but where are the peppers 🤣

I actually, legitimately, laughed out loud at this one 🤣

Oh yeah…the sounds were something else lol. The technicians gave me earplugs for mine. It is quite a loud procedure strangely enough. The one benefit was that I was able to request the imagery they took on a disc afterwards and then I was able to 3d print my brain from the imagery!

Watching them do the chair was… terrifying… Just seeing the rigging they used stretch and jump up in 200lbf increments gave me sweaty palms.

I had to get an MRI at the start of the year and told them I had metal permanent retainers and was slightly concerned. They were like “Nah, you’re fine.” I was like “Okay, just please don’t steal my teeth 😬”
