Comment on What's your dream laptop for running *nix? in ~comp
Canberry Link ParentI've seen people swap Arch and Ubuntu onto certain macbook models, I'd never really want to use a stock macbook (though on some models it does break some of the usability).I've seen people swap Arch and Ubuntu onto certain macbook models, I'd never really want to use a stock macbook (though on some models it does break some of the usability).

Comment on What makes a video essay good? in ~tech

A couple of the best video essays I've seen (I'll link them below) are about the music and culture of Yugoslavia during the wars following its breakup and how an obscure 80s Sukeban anime series inspired Kill la Kill.
The videos come off as very organic. They have humor that the creators naturally use. It feels like I'm listening to a professor talking about a field they worked in for years.
These topics are also very niche -- not something meant to attract large audiences and be "poppy". They're not flashy nor do they have amazing visual editing. They're just made by people who care about Yugoslavian war music and obscure anime series.

I think it's quite interesting and thought some of you might enjoy looking through it.

I like how simple and small tildes is, which is why i started sitting on IRC chats during my lectures to pass the time - the discussion is usually way better than one on reddit or a massive discord server :P
Yep. I'm basically rebuilding suspension to perform how I want it. It's a lot of math and fluid dynamics, since shocks create damping force by restricting oil flow around washers and through a piston.
I'm not actually doing any CFD since that's hard and Bilstein has a rough guide on shim stacks that I'm going off of.
