Great addition to pile of scripts to take with you on problem solving missions. I have something similar, but written in terraform. WRT AWS cost visibility, I find it is usually faster to spin up and grab most of the relevant information using mlabouardy's [komiser](https://github.com/mlabouardy/komiser) than to try and standardize yourself. Not shilling, just a tool I like.


The TeX Yoda has a terrible built in mouse. Highly recommend steering clear. I've been a thinkpad guy for the past 15 years or so, and I jumped on the opportunity to buy one when it came out. The sensitivity on the trackpoint has a really weird velocity curve and I never managed to get it to feel even close to right on any platform.

Building keyboards has been a hobby for a minute, I've settled on an HHKB that I've gutted and replaced the controller with a Teensy 2 so I can program all my mouse keys and shortcuts in hardware, therefore avoiding the inevitable discussion on who's mappings to use when pairing. You can often find good offerings for sale/trade on reddit/r/mechmarket.


There is an excellent video from 33c3 about Gameboy internals and all the wonderful tricks that can be utilized when writing software for it. https://media.ccc.de/v/33c3-8029-the_ultimate_game_boy_talk


C3 never ceases to surprise me. Thanks!


I have fond memories of playing Alligator Eggs

With some of my older family members and a couple of mildly intoxicated friends who vaguely understood the theory. It's well worth playing with to learn the lambda calculus.


I have been trying to break a FAR manager addiction for many many years, despite being a linux user exclusively for the last 10, FAR is the most useful shell I have ever used. mc doesn't cut it.


I guess my may have seen it, but there appears to a project ongoing to try to port FAR to Linux.

I've been running mint on my x220 for about a year with absolutely no issues. Prior to that I was running ubuntu on an x61 for 3 years, also with no issues. I use an external monitor every day and unplug it every night and don't have to change a thing. It 'just works'.
