  • Tipp for people wanting to get into rechargeable AA and AAAs: get IKEA Ladda batteries and their charger. They are cheap and japanese made. Some people argue that they are just relabeled Panasonic eneloops!

    Edit: Oh also if you used rechargeable batteries in the past and you remember them sucking that’s probably true. But the battery chemistry is better now and it’s possible that your batteries degraded quickly because of “dumb” chargers. Modern chargers like the gray 4 battery Ikea charger detect how and for how long to charge and thus will not ruin the batteries.


  • I think the explanation was needed. Even if one knows about interrupts, it’s easy to misunderstand the meme. For example i thought it was a joke about a person writing assembly and being used to 32 bit code and thus mistyping %rax as %eax, and I’ve seen another comment here referencing “muscle memory”. (Obviously the interrupt interpretation makes way more sense and it’s funnier)



  • Yes being Hot-Swap was very important to me. All the ducky one 3’s are hot-swappable right? I have some older mechanical keyboards but they are not hot swap. For example i have one with red switches and It’s really not bad at all but I just don’t use it because i don’t love the switches. If it was hot-swap i could just try out some new switches on it instead of buying a new board.

    Thanks for your advice! I always like to double check that I’m not buying a brand that is generally regarded as poor quality or something.
