My latest purchase is the Drop ENTR, a Tenkeyless (TKL) mechanical keyboard, that looks pretty sleek in my opinion. It has a black anodized aluminum case, plate-mounted Cherry-style stabilizers, white LED back-lights paired with nice looking double-shot PBT shine through keycaps, and Halo True switches.
I waited for the ENTR to go on sale before purchasing it and I must admit that I mostly bought it so that I could try out the Halo True switches that you are able to get with it (and partially so I could finally have a backlit keyboard if I’m being honest). It came in a nicely packaged box complete with a keycap puller which was a nice little bonus despite already having a few.
This is just a short and simple post to announce that Linuxious.com has been online for ten years as of today!
I honestly don’t know where the time has gone. Also, I know that considering its age it really doesn’t have a massive amount of posts on it, but it always was meant to be just a place that hosts intermittent ramblings on various topics.
I saw that there was a pretty decent sale going on at the local store for the new base-model 2023 Apple Mac Mini M2 (MMFJ3LL/A) and since I’ve heard a lot of good things about the new M-series Apple computers I decided to pick one up while it was relatively cheap.
I’ve owned multiple Mac Minis, but this will be the first brand new Apple computer that I’ve owned in fourteen years. My previous one was the late 2009 Mac Mini (MC239LL/A A1283) powered by a Intel 2 Duo, which itself was also the base-model system of its time.
As it is the base-model M2 system, it only comes with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. I did briefly consider upgrading them due to that, but price-wise it just was not worth it to me and honestly the system specifications are more than suited for what I intend to use the system for.
