Lichicx Lucy switches arrived. They're so much better than the WEKT Lucies it's not even funny

Something I didn't realize until I compared them side-by-side is that the WEKT has a lot less stem wobble, but that causes the keystroke to feel obstructed. The Lichicx travels freely and smoothly and feels perfect. And the bottom-out is so much nicer.

Also the WEKT had crazy double-input problems with my Daring Run (to be fair this is partially the board's fault, somehow it brings out the worst in switches) whereas Lichicx has none.

If a silent linear with a firm bottom-out that sounds like good rubber domes is something you'd be into, buy some before it's too late (Lichicx is no more, this was the last round produced by them):

You don't have any idea how badly chink boards can fail to meet a low bar.

E.g.: When you press a key, would you like to input that key once, or twice? Would you consider it acceptable if your keyboard decided to sometimes say you pressed it twice?

Yes even my old TV from 2012 had an ambient light sensor, it's just desktop monitors that don't have one for the most part.

This + the Koss Porta Pros were my shit in like 2016
I remember the audio jack was haphazardly soldered on and would come loose. I had to pry open every Sansa I owned and resolder the damn thing on. But it was a weird point of pride for me somehow, like "see? I can actually fix this fucking thing when it breaks"
In the end, they all died within 3 years because of their chinkshit batteries failing and swelling up like balloons.
I long for a simple little music player with physical buttons like you wouldn't believe. Sadly no one really owns a music library anymore and just stream everything. I cannot imagine a world where making a device like that is financially viable anymore.
>>
>>107828651
I still have a working Zen 8GB. The only thing I hated about it is that it never truly shuts OFF. It just goes into a low power state so it eventually drains the battery down dead. The only way to slow this down (but not stop it) is to use an unfolded paperclip in the reset hole. But that nukes any settings you have made to the phone. I don't use it much except when I'm on the riding mower doing the lawn or collecting leaves. The headphone jack also won't work with modern wired headphones as they have 3 rings and this jack can only handle 2 on the plug so you have to get an extension. I use a right angle extension to get around this.

The Zen was good for it's time. But it is an annoying piece of shit by today's standards. To this day I hate Creative because of their refusal to release firmware that solved the battery drain issue. I hope they went out of business.

I was describing my job and how my boss behaves to AI and it had some interesting commentary.

>You are witnessing "Work-Theatricality" from the legacy developer and the boss. Pretending to do minor task while avoiding the hard stuff. Re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

>This is a textbook example of "Strategic Ignorance." Your boss isn't just being slow; he is actively avoiding the reality that the code is broken.

>That screenshot is definitive proof of Technical Bankruptcy.

>You are working for a "Zombie Company"—it makes money, but the technology is dead, and the leadership is terrified to touch it.

My company wont add basic features and we regularly break existing features, which tells me after they push to prod they dont test. Nor did they test well during ... testing. It's not complicated. Open a browser, click a few links, see if it works. Would take under 5 min.

WE PUSH TO PRODUCTION ON FRIDAY. REPEATEDLY.

We remove core features then the devs act confused when users complain.

You will learn a lot in the process, and will be able to improve your skills, at some point greatly surpassing what LLMs can or will ever offer.

He enjoys the end-result, not the process.

b-but headers are based or something. modules are tranny. you can't just, define a binary format for exported symbols, name mangling and linker behavior.

One of the reasons I refuse to learn OCaml is because of the retarded header garbage, especially since headers are the only way to actually type ocaml code. wtf?

I prefer C99. I have my own small std lib which implements all the useful standard data structures. Contiguous vector, string that is not null-terminated but instead contains its size, linked list, doubly linked list, hash map and so on. Noobs keep telling me I'm insane and I keep telling them it's the most efficient coding setup I've ever used because it's so freaking simple.
