Deskmat under the keyboard

Tape and/or foam mods in the case (will change the pitch of the sound, which might disturb less)

O-rings, but these will change how they keyboard feels. I didn’t like them

Foam inserts for keycaps - like o-rings but foam. never tried them

Lubricating the stabilizers - should mitigate some space and enter key rattle

If your keyboard supports hotswap, new switches are a more expensive option.

What? Isn’t this a common W for steam? This seems like a good thing to me.

Putting stuff in a calendar. Now that I’ve started doing it, I’m not sure how people live without it. I have too much stuff going on to remember exactly when things are happening and some of them are scheduled weeks or months in advance. Everything has to go in the calendar app. For things that are further out, I set reminders one week and one day before. Other than that, I also check at the start of every week, and ofc I check whenever I need to schedule something.

For sure it would’ve been better if things went according to plan. They’ll miss their families too. But I’m just saying, if I were in their place, I’d have the utmost confidence that NASA is going to bat for them and doing anything physically possible to make the best of everything.

I’m certain NASA helped them with a contingency plan in this case. Pretty sure they also planned out if their craft crashed.

I felt like I was on the up and I got spiked like a volleyball. I’m just tired of everything.

Design. Right.

I just have a soft spot for triceratops.

He’s beautiful

It’s enough to compliment them on whatever is new. New shoes, new haircut, new shirt, new tattoo, etc.

I bought a Herman Miller Aeron for $500 from an office closing auction. Super worth it.

Smarter people have already figured this out. I’d send them a copy of the golden record we put on Voyager. It contains the kinds of things that could convey “this is where we are, this is what we look like, we’ve figured out about this much of this universe so far, and we make stuff that isn’t utilitarian (art)”

NSFW has become code for porn, effectively. My friend and I use NSFO for ‘not porn, maybe not even nudity, but not necessarily appropriate for the office’. Maybe that’s what we need. A second filter.

I just beat this guy. Walked in with a colossal hammer and pancaked him. Took two tries because the first time I didn’t realize he didn’t turn into the fat one, but it was a summon instead.

I don’t really have much advice, really. Run sideways towards him when he spams projectiles, dodge into the big projectile, ignore his summons since your big hammer will hit them too anyway.

Elden Ring’s DLC

It definitely shows some bosses we haven’t seen before, and the narration hints at what the story might be, or at least the surface level that represents this character’s narrative. For the most part, it’s a bit like watching the original release trailer.

You don’t need to watch it to know, it is fucking epic. I am hyped beyond all measure. We are so fucking back.

I really believe that this has nothing to do with kids. “For the kids” has made me suspicious of intentions for a long time. It makes it difficult to argue against it because it implies that you’re a pedo or are doing something illegal otherwise. You implement general monitoring “for the kids”, and then you add some anti piracy stuff to it, then you add some hate group detection, some anti government group detection, etc. Now you have everything you need to get ahead of any danger to the government. If the people can’t organize, you can do whatever you want.

IMO sitting at my desk, watching logs or waiting for something to come in isn’t living my life. I can’t do my hobbies, I can’t play video games, drink a beer, watch a movie, hang out with my friends, etc. Browsing lemmy or youtube isn’t exactly living my life. As long as I’m at that desk, I’m working.

Isn’t this a free update that comes at the same time as the dlc?
