Many years ago I got the KBD75v2 and I love that keyboard, it's still my main keyboard for my home office. I now need another keyboard and was shocked to find that KBDFans doesn't sell it or anything like it anymore. I also cannot seem to find a keyboard that is 75% and has the possibility of split-space and QMK/VIA. Is there one available out there? Closest I can find is some Keychron Alice boards but I would like a non-split board and just have the space split into multiple keys. I've seen on some sites that the Wobkey Rainy 75 has an add-on for split-space but I cannot find that add-on anywhere and from youtube videos it doesn't seem to be included in the box(?). I'm also totally fine with soldering and piecing together parts. I just can't seem to find anywhere to start with that. I feel like the custom scene has reduced and the prebuilts have gotten better but with less customizations like split-space.

I'm looking into getting my own domain to use for email for both my partner and I. I was initially considering using both or first initials followed by our last name (example: ajsmith.tld for Ann and John Smith) but then got to thinking about it and realized that might not be best for privacy. It looks great in a professional setting (like job applications, bills, taxes, etc.), though. So I'm unsure. I'm curios what other privacy concerned people are doing. The main goal is to not have to worry about changing account emails when we change email providers.

Edit: thanks everyone! Lots more replies than I expected and lots of good advice. I ended up going with lastname.tld domain and will combine that with aliases for privacy where needed. I might buy a fun domain later as well but for now this works.

I installed EmuDeck on my Steam Deck. I haven't done any custom configs or anything, just using the EmuDeck installed defaults. To run Pokemon SoulSilver it is using the retroarch core melonds. I can load up my saves on the deck, play them, then save a new one no problem. I recently got syncthing running on the deck to sync my saves to other devices. On all my other devices when I start the game (using the same core in retroarch) and press start I get an in game error that seems to be from the core or rom itself, definitely not from retroarch, that reads "A communication error has occurred. You will be returned to the title screen. Please press the A Button."

Is there something EmuDeck changes from the standard RetroArch settings for saves? I've tried to find something that could cause this issue but I cannot find an important seeming setting in the UI that could cause this and I'm starting to lose my mind.

I've been setting up and testing prometheus and grafana for about a week now, since that seems to be the universally accepted solution for self-hosted monitoring. But I'm starting to question why it is so accepted. On top of prometheus not seeming useful on it's own (needing grafana to visualize and alertmanager for alerts) it feels like with each thing i want to monitor I have to spin up another docker container to export/gather the data. There are other options like LibreNMS that seems to have all that built into one container. So what does this Prometheus/Grafana stack have that other monitoring services don't? Is it really worth having to set up each of these specialized exporters and dashboards? Or am I mistaken that it's the main solution everyone uses? Are you using something different for monitoring?
