Is thinkPad e14 AMD Gen 7 PWM-free or not?

The display spec: 14" WUXGA (1920 x 1200), IPS, Anti-Glare, Non-Touch, 45%NTSC, 300 nits, 60Hz

I don't know what the reason is, but I have been using that device for just one day and I noticed that it makes my eye dryer than other screens despite same usage. When I look at the screen I sometimes get a weird urge to close my eyes and avoid looking at it. I get slight headaches around my eyebrows/back of my eye, and my eyes turn reddish. Note that I care a lot about brightness and I have extension that makes the background and text in colors that are easy on my eyes, so I already took care of those factors. I also didn't experience those signs using other screens that had exactly the same theme setting I have on my thinkPad. So is it the PWM? something else? does anyone have any idea why that is? I'm gonna be using my laptop for a long time so it's crucial to find a way to fix this or at least make it better

where are all the video lectures for the data structure 112 cs course?

the course website only has few links. But cs 111 website had all the links. So is it that there's not a complete set of video lectures for the topics covered, or there's one but is gonna be only available on canvas once the course starts?

A good keyboard makes a MASSIVE difference on your progress as a beginner

When i first started learning to touch type, I thought that there's no way for me to able to do that since hitting keys was so weird and unnatural on the keyboard I started with. I thought it's a me problem not the keyboard. I was in that delusion for so long. But when I accidentally tried a different keyboard, the difference was night and day (it turned out that the first keyboard was fucked up and its first row of letters was shifted left way way too much). However, despite the very big improvement going from the first keyboard to the second, I always struggled with accidentally hitting wrong letters with the second keyboard or hitting one key twice. That was so frustrating to me since I thought I was doing everything right yet Im not able to make a satisfying progress. Today I switched to a different keyboard and was so surprised that Im typing in a speed I could never have imagined. (the second keyboard was very low profile with almost flat keys, making accidental hits so easy to make, especially for a beginner. So I just wanted to share my experience, hopefully helping another beginner out. I wish I saw some advice on trying different keyboards for a beginner, since as a beginner you automatically assume the problem is you but really some keyboards are just either straight fucked up (like my first keyboard) or just very, very unsuitable for a beginner (like my second keyboard). Im beyong happy now that I found a keyboard that makes me see how one day im gonna hit the speed im aiming for.

want a website that gives me just one random letter at a time instead of a string of words

Any one knows of such websites? I'm a beginner and I feel like it would really help me to practice on just one random letter at a time instead of words
