Notes

The spacebar on my X1 Nano was not always registering so I sent it in for repair on the 10th. I got it back today and they also replaced the battery and entire upper lid with display (including my rad OpenBSD sticker) despite these things working fine when I sent it in. Weird.

I've added a section to this article documenting how to use usbhidctl(1) and usbhidaction(1) to respond to Bluetooth headphone buttons which are passed through the BT-W3 as USB HID input reports

5. receive diff that adds things i don't want
6. ignore it to avoid saying no

Which 3D printer should I buy? I have no experience with this stuff but I want something that can print fairly large things (a foot tall?) with high quality. I'm not concerned about noise or speed. Maybe under $500?

A recent thread somewhere about small team sizes and its affect on focus made me curious about OpenBSD's commit rate over the years.
