The number refers to the reported time of death of pope John Paul II, 9:37 PM or 21:37, as Poland uses a 24 hour system. The use of the number is connected with memes about the late pope, as there was almost a cult folllowing for JP2, noone was allowed to even criticize him, after his death, with time popped out evidence of the pope not being such a great person, so people started meme'ing on him.
Man, that was a great read, from simple beginnings to selling your product. Thanks for the thorough explanation, I definitely don't plan to sell anything, I was considering learning electronics as a hobby, but it's good to know where to start if it ever comes to that.
Thanks for the suggestion! I do know a bit of Python, so it should be easier on that front at least.
Hello! What would be a good way to learn about electronics in terms of creating them? I'm particularly interested in building my own keyboards and other PC peripherals, but I'm not sure what tools I would need, or what's a good knowledge base if I run into any issues. Any tips and or suggestions?
That sure would work for me, just more mess for the existing cable mass under my desk 😅
It does have multiple ports I could use, though I was hoping I didn't need additional cables, but sure enough cables are cheaper than a new mobo or a physical KVM.
Remoting is certainly something I haven't thought of, latency shouldn't be a problem, only I'd need both machines to be on. Thanks for suggesting, it would save some money.
I do have free ports, so sounds like a plan, any KVM switches you'd suggest?
That sounds like a solution, although I was hoping I could do it with less cables, there's already a mess under my desk 😅 I'll check it out though, tanks!
Hello! I'm in a situation, where I have a work laptop and a personal computer, the latter is used mostly for gaming. In order to switch between them I have to plug all the peripherals from one machine to the other, to help with that I bought a dock, to which I can connect everything, and connect the dock via one USB-C cable. The trouble begins with the monitors, as my laptop supports thunderbolt, but my motherboard doesn't, so it's a bit of a chore to switch them.
To alleviate the issue I'm considering changing my motherboard to one that has thunderbolt 4 support, as I have one 4K monitor and one full HD, and I've read it should support them fine on one cable. Is this a good solution? I'm thinking I might run into some issues with monitors not being connected directly to my GPU, latency or otherwise.
I beseech thee for help o masters of the PC.
As a front-end developer with 10 years of experience, I'd suggest going with JavaScript. It's one language for both stacks, you can learn the core front and back end ideologies, and if you decide to go with a different language for back-end, it shouldn't take too much time to learn afterwards. From my experience it would be easier both to learn and potentially to get a job in the field.
