I'm a fan of qtile. Used it when it was x11 only and use it on Wayland now.

There's an option for a tented middle layer but it's definitely a little jank. https://docs.keeb.io/tenting-bolts-setup

I'm a fan of the keebio Iris keyboard. They have a prebuilt version and you can disconnect the right side.

I do the same. I have Debian with KDE and Kodi autostart on boot. Use Kodi most of the time but can tab out if needed.

It's a subscription service. It's designed to pay creators better than YouTube.

Turns out I’m dumb and didn’t realize that Arch hadn’t updated the package yet. As long as you have the env variable WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS=1, it works pretty well.

Not great. Still having a lot of issues with flickering. Guess this is what I get for buying Nvidia.

Time to see if Nvidia works with Qtile Wayland. Got a lot of flickering and visual bugs with pywlroots 0.15.

I've used Free Tax USA in the past, but I wouldn't say they're trustworthy. They're still part of the free file alliance and actively lobby against the IRS creating their own free tool without any restrictions.

No, off the shelf routers are usually ARM and opnsense is x86 only.

I'm a big fan of my OLKB kit. Hotswap, very solid case, and QMK compatible (which is a big deal for 40% boards), but the kit is a little expensive.

I don't have one personally but the YMDK kit on AliExpress seems like a good option and is cheaper. Just know that it will take a month or two to ship from China if you're in the US.

There's a lot of used mini PCs from Dell, HP, Lenovo that go for cheap on ebay. Those are a good alternative.
