Oh and I built the Viterbi with Gateron yellow switches which are like Cherry red but with a heavier actuation because I tend to accidentally press keys with red switches.

Here is what I use. The split mechanical one is from Keebio. I don't think they stock the PCB I used any more. It's called the Viterbi and I like it a lot. It's just 2 simple 7x5 ortho boards with an option for a 2u spacebar on the bottom inside keys on both halves.
My other keyboard is a Kensington Pro Fit Ergonomic Wired Keyboard. It's about 40 dollars on Amazon. I got it because I was learning Blender and it uses hotkeys on the numpad and other keys I don't have on my Viterbi.

The camo works pretty good. I didn't notice it until you mentioned it.

I work at a golf course and I'd rather be doing something meaningful like building homes so this post speaks to me directly.

Unfortunately the big thing lately is we've been dropping a bunch of trees.

I mean anything made of real materials that aren't plastics and fiberboard is luxurious to me. So yes I would consider a floor or a countertop made of actual stone luxurious.

I have been keeping up with my dishes lately more than I ever have in my life. It came about in kind of a weird way for me. My dishwasher broke and I suddenly had to hand wash all my dishes. I knew it was going to be a major problem so I made a goal. I decided I was going to make sure I washed every dish every night before I went to bed so they would never stack up to be a nightmare. Eventually my apartment manager got around to replacing my dishwasher and now I have kept up with doing dishes every evening only it's a lot easier with a dishwasher.

Now I run the dishwasher almost every night, unless it's really empty then I just leave it. Every morning I unload it while my coffee is brewing.

To some people this might not seem like a big deal, and to others it might seem impossible to keep up this routine. To me it has been a big improvement to my quality of life. If I feel like cooking something I always have a kitchen that is in a state that will allow me to do that and it always feels so good.

As a handheld gaming device it looks pretty terrible compared to other options. I could see myself getting one if it was a phone and it was cheap enough. I think the experience might be better than using the tiny bluetooth controller I keep on my keychain. I wonder if it has shoulder buttons. The photos don't show that side of the device.

Figure out what's wrong with my car. Taking it to a shop is probably too expensive and figuring it out myself is too daunting of a task. It sometimes dies when I'm slowing to a stop, and I have to put it in park and restart it. Sometimes it's hard to start and then the tachometer stays at zero even though the engine is running.

My username. If you enter urata as your name when you play Castlevania III for NES you start with the mage character (Sypha Belnades) available from the start.

Also iddqd for god mode and idkfa for all weapons in DOOM because that game was way too hard when I was a kid.

I prefer the Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys that's one nice fkn kitty right there style of holding a cat up in the air.

It's aesthetically kinda cool I guess but I lost interest when I realized it's literally just a skin around a keyboard. I thought he was going to just use the keyboard's insides and shell as a starting point. His buttons are pressing other buttons underneath.
