Giant keyboard - Redragon K605

Probably don't want one of these then

I've heard that old tyres are being used for roads, or part of them at least. Maybe plastics are included too?

Ripping CDs.. that brings up some deeply buried memories. Can't even remember the last time I did that.

Just got a call from someone claiming to be Kiwibank security, from a private number. Talked about a fraudulent transaction to JB Hi-fi, sounded legit until they asked for my access number. Hung up immediately.

I am an idiot. Drive 40 minutes to pick up some medicine and get blood tests done only to realise, as I was parking, that today was a holiday and everything was closed.

Only got a few hours sleep last night, bad dreams about blood clots and related issues. Work is getting done on autopilot today.

I loved it, took away my #1 AC game from Black Flag. Several full playthroughs, on both characters.

I hate that feeling. Used to get mail delivered to work and sometimes they show up in the morning. Having to wait all day to play with new toys is excruciating.

Thinkpad, just under 3 years old. The keyboard replacement is around $50 from Amazon.

Four keys on my laptop have decided to just stop working (G, H, single quote and up arrow). Internet searches show others with the same problem, even the same keys, but no solution.

Tried cleaning individual keys, rebooting multiple times, even a different OS as a live CD. Even a bios test has them failing. External keyboard works fully, but lugging one of those around defeats the purpose of having a laptop at all.

Warranty expired too. Considering buying a replacement, aftermarket, keyboard as I can't afford to buy a new laptop and the rest of it appears to be working fine.

A frustrating problem.
