    It looks to be Home Assistant. It's local home automation/smart home, a lot of people run them on Raspberry Pi's, those are hard to come by at the mo though so people are using other hardware. I personally have it running on a Raspberry Pi 3

    IMPORTANT: Members Market access

    I feel the same way. I'm not as far behind as you but I visit the forum multiple times throughout the day, most days and don't feel like I have anything to contribute very often. Maybe in another 11 years I may gain access to the MM. :rolleyes:

    Well I fell down the custom keyboard world.

    I don't think it's been mentioned yet; Keychron currently have a 6th Anniversary Sale which will end on the 8th of April, up to 30% off some boards

    Well I fell down the custom keyboard world.

    I've been using mine daily since the 5th of March and haven't had to change the batteries yet, so impressed so far. The missus doesn't like typing on it though :D

    Well I fell down the custom keyboard world.

    Thanks Scott, hadn't realised that so I'll take a look Fn + the corresponding numbers are the F keys by default, i.e Fn + 1 = F1, 0 is 10, - and = being F11 and F12 so very useful! Some other random keys are mapped to things like volume up/down but I don't see myself remembering those

    Well I fell down the custom keyboard world.

    The finished product. Feels pretty nice to type on and the stabs aren't bad either although the layout is a little different to what I'm used to. Still able to use the function keys (and a few extras) by using 'Fn' which is a relief. Not sure I'll remember where the extras are though. Going to...

    Well I fell down the custom keyboard world.

    Just finished lubing up some Gateron Milky Yellows... they come pre-lubed but this is my first venture in to the custom keyboard world so wanted to have a bash at hand lubing (and it seems some people don't think they're lubed enough). To be fair the felt pretty good stock, there's maybe a...

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    I've got one on order as backup. After a few more port changes it seemed to be mostly okay tonight. Thanks for the info and I'm glad it worked for you

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    You may have just cracked it, if so I'm very grateful - I'd have (had) got fed up messing with cables otherwise! I've just switched to a different DP on the monitor and switched to the third port on the card (the previously very flickery one) and that constant flicker has gone away. I'm hoping...

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    Thanks for the suggestions @mrk. Already tried both 60Hz and 120Hz and there's no difference, I'd also already tried 2/3 of the Displayports on the card, just tried the third and it's even worse! That does point to the ports potentially being the issue. Will have to grab a HDMI cable and try...

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    Yep, Resize BAR has been tried both on and off. The engine is something I thought about, both problem games run a variant of the IW engine. I've currently got Spider-Man Remastered downloading so can give that a go in a bit. Although I swear I've just seen it do it in Windows with nothing...

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    I built myself a new system last week but have been experiencing static-like lines in some games (above - you may have to open it in a new tab as it doesn't seem very visible embedded). The location changes and so does the frequency it appears; sometimes it'll be several in the space of 10...

    Pencils?

    Clutch pencils are great. Similar to a mechanical pencil but has the tip of a standard pencil. You can get different grade lead but just stick with HB for writing - will require a special sharpener though.

    Is this a bed bug or a beetle?

    Fry it in a bit of beef fat and serve with chips. Very high in protein.

    Anyone been on the ketogenic diet long term?

    I've not read the article but thought it worth mentioning most people I know who follow or have followed the keto diet don't track calories at all. That doesn't mean everybody who follows the keto diet doesn't, but I'm not sure what percentage do.

    Fashionistas in here please. Quick question

    I'll have you know that is a black shrug

    Anyone been on the ketogenic diet long term?

    I'd add caffeine to that list, a lot of sugar can be added to coffee in the way of syrups (and fat with milk and cream) and there's also caffeine in normal fizzy drinks. Lots of people having their daily dose of Starbucks!

    Anyone been on the ketogenic diet long term?

    As Booyaka said I wouldn't rely on those numbers being accurate (so don't go thinking I've burned 3000 calories so I can eat 3000 calories of pizza). The HR numbers may help monitor cardiovascular improvement though providing it's consistent day to day, in theory your HR should get lower over...

    Anyone been on the ketogenic diet long term?

    I'll admit addiction is something I'd like to educate myself on more but you sort of made my point there. When it comes to food most people wouldn't eat it if it wasn't there. If sugar containing food suddenly disappeared people wouldn't start panicking (though they wouldn't be impressed), it's...
