    It’s the not-quite-top-end release of a 7-year-old architecture - of course people are going to move on from it even with the current pricing environment. It doesn’t help that the 2060 was roughly equivalent in raster performance at its launch even in games programmed with the older architecture in mind.





  • Way back in the day, I used PulseAudio’s network source/sink capability quite a bit; mpd running on my server with Pulse network was fun. I actually ran the Windows build of Pulse in my dual boot at the time so it could have a continuous mpd experience. (Yes I know you could just output to an encoded stream or whatever, but the seamless experience was Really Cool)

    I also didn’t really have any issues with Pulse even back then; honestly I kind of liked it. I stopped using desktop Linux well before Pipewire released, though :(





  • IIRC the tenting would indeed come from the housing - it would be slight though at 5 degrees. I have a Model 100 and the sculpt itself is to try and mimic the key well design you see on the Kinesis Advantage etc and it does okay at that; I think my own Advantage is a bit more “comfy” and the pinky is more usable on it, but the M100 feels fine otherwise and I like the palm key. (I also really like having the flexibility of the split keyboard, but if you’re looking for a unibody that doesn’t matter :p)

    The other big drawback with Keyboard.io’s boards is that they ship with Kaleidoscope instead of QMK/etc - not necessarily a big deal if you’re not already invested in QMK but if you are it’s something to keep in mind. QMK was ported to the Model 01 but not the 100 yet AFAIK.

    Always online aside, the reason Denuvo keeps being used is because for most Denuvoed games it takes a lot longer than a few days/weeks for a crack to be released, if ever - there is only one entity that cracks Denuvo anymore, and their releases are sporadic (plus they’re a bit of a … character). Plenty of games still don’t use Denuvo though, and those don’t even last a day.

    I don’t quite get slapping it on an always online game where you’re expected to connect directly to their game servers, though.
