I was all excited about the orange chicken...asked the kids about it, they both turned their noses up claiming to not like sweet chicken

Could you add some peppers in the mix when you cook it?

you can add peppers to anything!

You can always skip the sauce and add your own

yeah the breading/chicken combo alone is great

I was wondering if people can recommend a good keyboard splitter so I can use same keyboard now for work and personal machine without having to plug and unplug

I struggled with this too. I ended up using 2 usb-c cables and plug/unplug at the keyboard. Love to know of a better approach

I solved video by having 2 cables as well, display port and hdmi

It doesn't work well with some keyboards that use NKey Rollover and other non-biosy things but I consider that a fault of the keyboard

do you know of a good KVM that supports HDMI 2.1 spec?

Not off hand. I had to hunt and search for one with HDMI that wasn't also a million dollars. Don't recall what I ended up getting and on my corp laptop so can't login to my newegg account (pretty sure I found it there though)

justin running 8k over here

I need my 4k @ 120hz when I look at my pathfinder bitmap maps

Just use my KVM for managing my server and network PIs when SSH seems ill advised

yeah the $$$ on some random switch I found was unpalatable so I just went with 2 cables

I’m on 2 cables as well for monitor.

I have my pc hooked up to the hdmi input and my laptop hooked up to dp. I use the magic keyboard/trackpad for the laptop, so I just swap one set of wireless peripherals and change the monitor input to switch

I run three cables out the back of my main monitor and just switch. KVM is plugged into one, and then my personal tower and laptop are the other two. My side monitor just runs two out for my retropie and personal tower (would be three but I broke the display port :sob: )

I’ve not seen a KVM that worked well since the mid-aughts, really.

the kvm built into my monitor works pretty well

https://pikvm.org/ I'm really interested in this one

supporting freesync/gsync seems to be tough too

yeah i don't think any kvm does

these talk a good game https://store.level1techs.com/products/14-kvm-switch-single-monitor-2computer

if wendell is selling it I trust it

this might be a good option --> https://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/options/page/flow-multi-device-control

I havent personally used these, but my co-workers do

:sob:

Wonder if WINE could trick it lmfao

I might have missed this, but what platform are you running? linux?

yeah that's my daily home OS

I have Stockholm syndrome with pulseaudio

it's great when it works. but when it doesn't hoooooooooo buddy

lemme tell you hwat

I can tell how much you hate it since you put the h before the w.

Nice, I didn't know Synergy was still maintained. I used that on my windows desktop and laptop years ago

Depends on how well it's working at any given moment lol

If I can fix it by bouncing the server, then not so much.

I know tomorrow is technically the first day of fall, but I made bread today.

:bread: :heart:

First loaf from my new starter, Walter Wheat

I am not good at shaping :smile:

wow looks amazinggggg :tada:

What do you mean by starter? Is it sourdough?

yes, sourdough

Nice! My favorite type.

starter usually means sourdough. preferment is the general term, but usually you’ll hear the specific term biga or poolish for a preferment using commercial yeast

yeah the breads I've made have used commercial yeasts and I've heard the starter called a preferment

:happytoast:

d'oh - "I've heard the starter called a poolish"

sorry about that

We "have" to make bread every week or so to keep the starter going. Nice ear on the :bread:.

Y'all I would have never thought to buy chicken wing futures

But they've gone nuts recently

Task.FromResult(new ChickenWing());
