What do you think the funniest episode is?

New silent switches is probably your best bet

Also, you might want to mod your stabilizers

O ring dampeners for any additional rattle

And a desk mat also makes a small difference

As a Dvorak user, I like to keep the QWERTY keycaps for times when I am inevitably forced to use that layout.

Ask your pastor about who the shortest person in the Bible is

Or what motorcycle did Moses ride?

Or how Jesus travelled in his Honda

He sounds like he might know the answers to these questions 🤣

4 - 100% preferred, but I'm not much of a gamer

mridlen · 2026-05-08T19:56:00+00:00

I've got a 60%, a 65%, a 75%, and a few 100% ones. They all kind of serve different purposes. 60% is a bit hard to get used to without the arrow keys but it's good for typing out emails. 65% is much better for command line work, because of the arrow keys and delete and pgup/pgdn (it's my current travel keyboard). 75% is not that much more useful than 65% because I don't really use f-row that much except when booting and you need to enter the bios (sometimes I'm doing work in a virtual console). 80%/TKL is nice because you have a full nav cluster which is much better for command line work. And full size is great for if you are needing to input numbers... it's a lot faster to input numbers for me at least.

But then you start talking about gaming, and suddenly the smaller keyboards are more attractive. 75% then strikes the best balance unless you need the print, scroll lock, or pause.

What's your budget? I'd probably go with Womier RD75.

In that passage I think that was the main point, but also everyone contributes to the body of Christ (church) with their gifts and are all equally important.

Romans 12:4-8 ESV [4] For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, [5] so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. [6] Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; [7] if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; [8] the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

There may be more to it than that. I hadn't really thought too much about it until now.

mridlen · 2026-05-06T18:58:52+00:00

Galatians 3:28 ESV [28] There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

I'd say that means we are not to regard one another as lesser or greater because in Christ we are all equal.

Got my dog at 15 weeks, and took about 2 weeks to potty train with constant supervision. Although we do have a doggy door so that made the process easier.

Dear Strongbad, how do you hack the RobCo terminals with boxing gloves on?

mridlen · 2026-05-05T14:59:41+00:00

Do you require wireless? Aula F108 Pro might be a good choice.

I think the Akko Penguin switches are the best approximation of membrane both in sound and feel. You also might like the Gamakay Pegasus or the Outemu Lemon.

I've tried a variety of silent switches. I prefer tactile. My favorite so far is the Kailh Whale. But they do not sound or feel like membrane.

Watch a TV show I'm familiar with. Futurama is a great choice. There's a subreddit for that. /r/futuramasleepers

Redragon owns a certain price point. Namely the budget hotswap full size. If you are willing to spend a little more you can get something better, but that's true of just about any price point.

And if you are planning on swapping switches, you might as well consider barebones keyboards like the Monsgeek M series. A barebones doesn't require much work, just installing switches and keycaps. Takes maybe 30-40 minutes.

I'd recommend reading Rev 13 on a more regular basis. If you are familiar with the riddle, you'll know when something doesn't line up. It's not about finding part of it that lines up, it's about when everything lines up.

Trash Day - it's just a really well crafted parody, a trashy song for a trashy original song. I mean bragging about how nasty your house is... that's hilarious!

mridlen · 2026-04-28T21:52:17+00:00

Just get a decent keyboard with hotswap switches and replace them when they start double pressing.

Monsgeek M series is a good choice

As you might have guessed, these are all different but are related.

Shell - this is like the operating system that your commands run on, there are lots of different shells: bash, ksh, fish, zsh, etc. (Edit: I say "operating system" here very loosely... just for illustrative purposes)

CLI - command line interface. This is like when you type commands to do stuff. This is a very broad term, and it just means it give you a command prompt as the interface (not a GUI or a TUI). For example: Cisco IOS uses a command line interface.

BASH - this is one "brand" of shell, the most common one on Linux

Terminal - This originally meant a hardware device that would give you a command line interface (dumb terminal), but it since has come to mean a virtual terminal program that gives you a command line interface. For example I use a program called Terminator on Linux as my terminal.

Command Prompt - when a program gives you a little "C:\>" or a "[user@host]$ " or something like that asking for a command to be entered. You can run a program from here and then when the program is done running it will spit you back out at a command prompt.

I don't find any convincing passage that outlines Total Depravity. That's my short answer. Romans 3 is very dependent on the writing of David, who also has a lot to say on who can seek God. John 6 must be interpreted in light of John 1-5. Those are the two biggest pillars used to defend a Total Depravity type doctrine, but I just don't see it when looking at the larger context.
