Either die or get a job. Not picky on which one.

Gotta love a good baseless claim.

The dead frog in the show box scene had me laughing so hard the first time I saw it I was actually crying.

I was gonna go work for the government but then I got high.

Private property is the capital, the actual means of production. Personal property is your stuff.

This is definitely a sane and logical take. I've been eating plants for almost a year and no meat. Not only am I still waiting for my soy manboobs to come in but in surprisingly not a mummy lol.

I haven't eaten meat in almost a year and my fat ass is not exactly starving.

I would like to wish all the social media oligarchs a kindly fuck right off.

Seriously if I wanted shitty ass social media I would still have a Twitter and Facebook account.

The government providing a baseline existence for it's people is like super fucking dangerous.

To add to what @denton@lemm.ee said, you can also buy kits from sites like Keebio and Novelkeys. There is a Etsy store call BeeKeebs I will always suggest because Leo is a really cool dude and offers a lot of kits for stuff that you'd otherwise have to part yourself.

I print my own PCBs and aim for boards that don't require diodes. I have most of my boards with Choc Sunsets which are aftermarket custom low profile switches form loweprokb.ca. All my boards run on a fork of QMK called Vial and the hobby gets weird from there. If you are on discord there is a meckkeys server that has a ton of info.

For how custom they can be: Look up Ben Vallack's Piano2. It's an 18 key board that he uses for everyday use including writing code. QMK and it's forks are extremely powerful pieces of software that still blows my mind and I've been using it for 3 years.

I build custom mechanical keyboards. Got into it because of the Pandemic and now I have built 6 of them. /r/mk and /r/emk used to be some of my most visited subs on the other site. I'm now known as the goto for keyboard questions in my circles of friends.

I started getting into fidgeting more lately and took a liking to magnetic sliders and now have a few that I pretty much always have with me.

And that extended into me learning about begleri beads somehow so now I am attempting to learn that. I can do slips and 2 finger wraps and occasiaonal one finger or thumb wraps but not much else yet. I accidentally learned a stall because I messed up. I need to really learn transfers since that is one of the main things you do a lot of.

I think I am also amongst the hyperfixator group in this thread. I was previously into speedsolving Rubik's cubes and roasting coffee so I feel a lot of these answers lol.

Also while you are here, read theory.

I had already posted this on the other keyboard community but after a few beers tonight, felt I should share it here too. I built this last weekend and test drove it at work all week. I think I really like the Robins but probably not as much as my beloved Sunsets.

The layout is for my Ferris but it's mostly adapted to 36 keys as well. It's based a bit on Miryoku and KKGA(I think that was the name). I also took heavy influence from Mental's symbol layer with the finger roll bigrams. I do have a gaming layer but it's sort of always changing depending on the game I am playing. Right now it's Dyson Sphere Program so my second gaming layer is shortcuts for like belt levels and copy/pasting buildings.
