As if thats not bad enough, someone wrote an entire book that contains the exact date and manner of my death and put it in the library of babel.

You can emulate almost any Nintendo game from before 2016 on a steamdeck. Just got to wait a few more years for the switch emulators to get efficient enough to run well on the steam deck!
Thats exactly the kind of thing I would expect the founder of LinkedIn to say. Bet there's a bunch of absolute lunatics ready to repost that to their own linked in page.
I remember hearing a theory that he deliberately orders a mostly flavourless cocktail with very basic and common ingredients because it would make it easier to detect if someone had spiked his drink with something.
Standard, off the shelf ingredients means you can't just spike the whole bottle ahead of time as each ingredient is pretty standard.
That's a hyper7. If youve got a pathological need for a billion keys and £700 to drop you can't go far wrong. Although you may have to spend a little more to reinforce your desk and remove a wall to get it in your house lol
That's pretty cool honesty.
However, I'm personally more concerned about the move away from cheap, off the shelf, replacement parts and simple, standardised designs, and more towards costly assemblies, highly integrated mechanical designs that are very complex to disassemble and repair, and deliberately anti-repair preactices that push consumers back towards manufacturers like how phones and laptops have become recently.
I was talking to a coworker the other day about how even simple things like car headlights have become severely integrated and expensive.
When an led in his headlight blew and took out half of the series strip and rendered the entire indicator on one side of his car entirely dead, the only replacement part you could get for it was a replacement headlight cluster, all lights included, for around £500. To replace the cluster meant borderline stripping the front end of the car including the radiator to access 5 screws holding it in place.
On my old car from the mid 2000s, if an indicator light blew, I could fit a new one for £2.50 in under 10 mins. If the cluster smashed a brand new unit would set me back £25 now or around £50 back when it was new. The whole job could be completed though the open bonnet with only a screwdriver.
They say it takes 10,000 hours of practice to become an expert at something. You'd have to walk this road about 2 and a half times just to become an expert at walking.
What you just described is pretty much exactly my experience with colemak and split keebs too.
When i was learning colemak i decided to take the time to teach myself proper touch typing at the same time. Now i can only touch type colemak on a split ortho. I cant type qwerty at all on it.
