/sqt/ - Stupid Questions Thread

Orico, CSR8510.

My desk is shit and flimsy, made of fairly thin wood, and it constantly makes a sort of vibrating sound.
How do I alleviate this, aside from getting a good, proper desk?
Usually it isn't a problem, but when I just hear a constant, faint sort of buzz, it gets a little tiresome after a while.

thanks, may I know why?

poo on it xd

i use 2 scarfs folded together under my keyboard, stops most vibration i feel
also a wrist rest under the keyboard and a soft mousepad helps

I'm not convinced it's the keyboard.
It's probably because my computer is on the desk, since it's only really when my computer is on, which, with the way my room is arranged, I can't really put it on the floor without it being in a cramped little corner, choked for air, and likely to get hot and dusty as fuck.

I'm getting captcha requests just to visit Jow Forums. Is there any way around them?

What would be a RP3B+ alternative that doesn't have 1GB of shitty RAM? It costs 40€, a little less. I'd use it to play retro gaymes. No 3D, so I don't think I will need a really powerful GPU, but I guess I could get something better than the raspberry.

stack some books and put the base unit on the floor
this exhausts my diy advice

It doesn't have to be the arduino one specifically, but there tends to be pretty small power margins on these small boards, so I'd make sure it's a high quality cable, especially if it's on the longer side. There's a massive amount of variance among usb cables.
