Did you have to peg me that hard before we've even met

They did use to wear salmon as a hat. Orcas are built different.

These are rather harmless creatures to us. They hang out in bogs and fens afaik eating small things in the water. If you're standing among them, you're probably in wellies already and quite safe

The fabric of society and basic belief in science has been made a villain to fascist rubes.

There are some regrettable exceptions

We must be the good kind of awkward. My kid got an unreasonable amount of candy knocking on doors.

I honestly don't think so, bestie. Monkey's not gonna press the keys randomly at all. Somewhere in the recesses of his monkey neurons he'll have made implicit connections between letters and letter combinations. This is the infinite typewriter monkey, not some two-bit organ grinder's bitch. This monkey has been places, probably been through hell getting to this position in life. Seen wars, been across the globe, and now he's the star of a famous thought experiment. He loves lowercase t because he's a devout Christian after having been rescued by that missionary, and being a monkey he doesn't quite grasp the distinction. Wanna see what he wrote? tttt hhdfyb my ik t tkkoptt aa aaaa Bernardo : Who's there? tt ttt eeertyuhjk t

You call that random?

I don't think it works honestly. You'd need a monkey with a lasting and dutiful commitment to true randomness to ever get anything but a finite number of button mashing variations. Monkeys like that don't come cheaply.

I'm never going to be a MK expert or anything, but I like them and wanted a reasonably decent one. After a lot of research I ended up trying my luck with a Glorious GMMK 2, kailh box white switches, and doubleshot pudding key caps all in white. I later modded it with a sheet of PE foam between the PCB and the switches, and now it sounds delightful. I'm happy enough with it that, unless I decide to change the switches or try a denser foam, I might already be at my "endgame" keyboard. It does have LEDs, but if you get normal key caps it'll just look backlit, you can control how they shine anyway though. Dunno your budget, but that's what got me in and out of a potentially very expensive hobby for under £150.

Saved for when I get my home server back up and running. This sounds way better than keeping everything on an external SSD.

I'm a fucking albatross, I know... Or whatever that sailor's curse bird is I forget. A crested wank.

 

This is my teapot. It's about 1.5L and has a forward handle for the wrist crushing weight of it. It's a monster, made in America. Sadly I dropped the lid a year ago, and have been using a bowl to cover it, which clatters and makes a hell of a noise from the steam.

Is there a better way? Anywhere that sells lids? Failing that, share your ersatz teapot lids.
