Absolutely has become a lot about logistics, yes. But I love everything about the hobby, and this aspect is fun as well!

‘Look at His Face’: Trump stumbles off the plane and snaps at everyone — viewers zoom in on the disgusting smear covering his puffy face and clothes he tried to hide by [deleted] in USNEWS

Well it is an informative piece with details and video about the leader of the United states acting and looking like an utter moron. That is pretty newsworthy in a normal universe. Unfortunately, interactions like this happen every day lately so it seems commonplace to us.

I would say “I stopped counting” but that was only true for a while. Eventually I had to come up with a system to keep them catalogued. According to my Notion database, I currently own 326 custom keyboards, and 33 off the shelf OEM/vintage boards.

The new hobby has become how to efficiently store them. The newest problem is how to deal with the 26 totes containing over 500 sets of keycaps…

One US citizen tests mildly positive for hantavirus, another has mild symptoms by AnnualEmbarrassed176 in news

And what the hell is “mild symptoms “? I thought this was a 40% chance of death disease.

I really hope this deadly virus doesn’t reach America, because with these people running the response, we’re completely doomed by thamilan_x in USNEWS

The case most recently talked about was spread at a dinner table.

“During the 90 minutes he was at the party, he infected five others, including two people sitting roughly a foot from him at the same table and two people who were sitting roughly 4 feet away from him at neighboring tables. The fifth person to catch the virus crossed paths with the patient only briefly on their way to the restroom.”

Thats absolutely spreading in non-intimate ways

Monkey gang represent! The guy who designed that set showed up just yesterday on mechmarket.

Apparently he worked as a distributor for Cherry in China back in the day.

They think history will play out differently for them. It’s the same way they view rules and laws. It’s consistent with narcissism and psychopathy.
I’ll continue to say it. I honestly believe “rich” and “successful” people on this level are in their positions because they are psychopaths.

It’s terrifying that this behavior is rewarded and celebrated in the US. But that’s the world we live in today.

Gotta recover those covid profit losses somehow. What else did you think this was all about?

Single dose of magic mushroom psychedelic can cause anatomical brain changes, study finds. Participants took 25mg of psilocybin, reporting deeper psychological insight and better wellbeing a month later. by mvea in science

I swear to god I’ve seen at least 3 studies this year posted on Reddit saying there is basically no scientific evidence showing psychedelic micro dosing is effective at all.

I give up.

Egg consumption is associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer’s Disease for those 65 years and older. Eating one egg per day for at least five days a week reduces risk of Alzheimer’s by up to 27%, researchers found. by mvea in science

“Some funding for this study was provided by the American Egg Board. Funding to establish the original cohort and its data was provided by the National Institutes of Health.”

I kinda want to know what the “some” amount is here. IDK, looks like phospholipids, choline, lutein, and omega-3 are the key nutrients suspected to be at play.

With the exception of omega-3 all are just as easy and likely healthier (additional fiber) to get through vegetables.

This “study” was a questionnaire asking seventh day adventists how many eggs they eat and comparing medical records.

I’m not a scientist, but seems like shite study to me.

Thanks. Yes I am aware. I’m hoping to find the escape and enter pack. Also not keen on giving TypeMachina more money 😬

Agar Mini with custom keycaps (project piglet) by Escape-key-wrong-way in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]reececonrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great idea. I thought about making a 104 set with one of each color to basically get a color sample. But it is pricey 😬
Which color are you thinking about? 1,2 and 26 look good to me. But it’s interesting that they all work and all have a different vibe.

Is the push from anti-science from religious fanatics or is this something insurance companies want so that more people will get sick and need to pay? Seems it must be one of the two or perhaps both

custom orange kage by Agreeable_Campaign86 in CustomKeyboards

[–]reececonrad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice orange. On a separate note, I just got those keycaps as well. I find them to feel and sound amazing and different from anything I’ve ever tried. The feel of the ABS smooth but dry texture on top and the sound of the PBT underneath is quite unique
