It's a great time to switch to Linux.

Did you get permission from HN to do this?

There's no way I'd join something like this without the official stamp.

I tried their 25 inch monitor. E-Ink is such a better experience. I don't feel so jacked in to the matrix when I use it.

The ghosting and refresh rate are holding this technology back though. Definitely not main driver status yet.

LED and LCD screens seem to shift the brain into an agitated frequency. I wish they'd make more progress with E-Ink!

I’ve had a Blitzortung Blue sitting in a box just waiting to be soldered up - maybe this post kicks me into finally believing in my soldering iron skills and doing it.

Solder the thing!

Yes. A lot of tech history has its roots in gaming. And Trammel is for carebears.

I don't really see anything wrong with saying "yikes" to someone who is needlessly over the top with calling someone an "entitled asshole". It's a bit sad to see someone so rude or angry over something meant so lightly.

I hope you have a pleasant evening. :)

Edit: Well, those are quite the edits you've made there. There was no "reading into" your comment necessary - you called the person an entitled asshole. Your initial comment was downvoted into the grey before I even responded, and you insinuated that I was being snarky simply for saying "yikes" to your "entitled asshole" comment. If you truly thought that I was out to "make [you] look bad", perhaps you could've clarified your original statement in that response to me, rather than calling me snarky? Seems like that would've been an opportune time to have a mature conversation.

Others also downvoted your second response prior to you editing it, too. Seems there was no need for me to convince anyone of anything. Not sure what your deal is, but you do, respectfully, seem tightly wound. I also, for what it's worth, don't really give a damn what anybody thinks about my posts, so I'm not sure who I'd be trying to convince of anything.

I sincerely hope your evening improves!

Nice. The "edit" portion was very clever!

Now write a short, trite comment.
