  • I like the concept because it’s reminiscent of the early computers I grew up with (Tandy CoCo, Commodore 64) and I basically just dock my laptop with its lid closed anyway (screen is too small and resolution too high for my old person eyes).

    But considering it’s literally a keyboard PC, you’d think they’d have put more effort into making it a nice keyboard. I hate those “chiclet” low travel keys. Put a PC in a good mechanical keyboard or at least a membrane keyboard where the keys have some travel, then we’ll talk. Until then, it’d be a tad ridiculous to plug a good keyboard into my keyboard PC lol.

    It’s not much cheaper than an equivalent laptop, so who’s this for, exactly?

    I guess if there were an LCD shortage instead of memory and SSD, it would have a lot more potential.










  • How does that work? Does YT pay out to creators based on the subscriber count alone? I’ve only ever heard “like and subscribe to help fund this channel” mentioned when the videos are monetized (e.g ads or sponsors).

    Or does PBS monetize their videos and uBlock just shields me from that?

    Not that I don’t want this to be true since it’s an easy way to help fund them, but I am curious how (or if) this works.
