Joking aside, chess engines can run on very little hardware. It's not out of the question that something like this might be entirely embedded soon enough.
The hardest part might be interpreting the board state.
The Vita was great, but I didn't really get into more than a handful of games until SD2VITA became available. (The adaptor allowing the use of an SD card through the game slot).
Sure, then you can't use game cards, but who needs those now that you dump games and keep your entire library on that one SD card, ready to go anytime, for pennies?
If that had been how it worked from the start, I would have bought so many more games. The library started off decent, and aventually got really damn good.
But a lot was digital only, especially the indie stuff, so at the time, getting new games was like pulling teeth.
I only got it to play WipEout 2048, but Gravity Rush turned out to be one of my all time favorite games, and Killzone Mercenaries showed me the genius of gyro aim before anyone else had even heard of it.
Any DPI above a couple thousand is more than enough. Lots of people play at low DPIs (400-800) because it actually allows for more precision in some scenarios by making very large hand movements into very small in-game movements.
It's more about what the tracking quality on a given sensor is like. With a good sensor, you get consistent mouse-to-pixel movement, so that the same movement always results in exactly the same input. That is what allows you to make mouse movement something you can train your muscle memory to do. Once you no longer have to think about it, you can perform actions in games faster than you're able to think.
Logitech sensors have been REALLY good for years now, and the Roccat Kova was also a mouse I chose specifically due to the sensor in it being known to have consistent tracking performance.
That said, the problem on that mouse wont be the sensor. It'll be the polling rate. Which might be fine, but it isn't disclosed in the specs, which is something all gaming mice do.
Logitech G Pro, maybe? Any logitech mouse should work with OpenRGB for turning the lights off.
I'm not sure the G Pro has the sideways scrollwheel buttons, but I would consider binding a g-shift key with a second layer, where you bind the scrollwheel to scroll sideways, that way you have the same level of control for both types of scrolling. (Piper should let you do these keybind changes.)
Also, see if enabling autoscroll helps you out. That's a setting that's off by default in Firefox on linux. It's the feature where you click the middle mouse, and it makes mouse movement scroll the page continuously depending on how far you move the mouse from the point where you clicked. That works up, down, left, right, and even diagonally.
I used to use a Roccat Kova and loved it. Only stopped to go wireless with a G305. The Kova might also fit your needs. Great sensor with great button layout, but unfortunately also has rgb. Not sure if it works with OpenRGB, but it's on the very subtle side.
Glances at the child gambling enabled by the steam marketplace, an issue being blatantly ignored by Valve leadership.
Buddy, I don't know how to tell you this. I love Valve for all the good they do, but they got some serious skeletons, too.
Valve representatives were asked point blank if the third party gambling sites have a positive influence on their bottom line, and the dude replying sweated bullets for several seconds before nervously going "we.... don't have any data on that" while the rest stared daggers at him.
Asking or being asked in a way that is menacing, because some couples find that hot as hell, is not mutually exclusive with "no" still being one of the options.
Did you ever find out what the actual cause was there?
Nothing like this has ocurred for me in over a year of use. And if it does, my nexycloud data folder is on a btrfs volume with regular snapshots, and backed up onto off-site storage.
If it's still a problem I'd love to replicate and help with a fix.
I used to use google keep, and also struggled to find something which would work between my phone and desktop.
Eventually Nextcloud notes improved enough to be the replacement that satisfies.
It's all markdown, existing as files in your nextcloud folder. That meant exporting my google keep was easy.
The desktop and mobile app are both simple but sufficient IMO. Make sure to install the rich text editor app for nextcloud, or you'll have to write plaintext markdown.
The downside is that if you don't already run nextcloud, setting it up is beyond overkill. Then again, you may find use for the many, many other things it can do, too.
They are genuinely useful devices, in that they simplify the process of running what is essentially a home server, down to something the average person can pull off by just buying a box and slotting some drives into it, then use a simple UI to configure whatever basic services they like.
For just the hardware, they're absolutely robbery. You're paying for the software to hold your hand. If you don't need that, they're pretty much pointless.
I don't remember what program it was but I once went to configure something, and the command to "open settings" essentially just opened a text file in vim.
Being a nano scrub that took me a second to get out of.
You don't see much redundancy in motherboards, so OP is off in that regard.
Rather, a lot of parts are non-critical because not every single one is needed to begin with. Unless you actually populate every single connector and port on a motherboard, a lot of it is doing nothing.
I live in the nordics, would you like a list?
