  • One of my biggest fears is that the propaganda, indoctrination, and cult of personality around our dear leader reaches North Korea levels, and the rest of the world will be unable or unwilling to dig us out of whatever quagmire we voluntarily chose to walk into

  • So, yesterday I found out my keyboard had been infested by ants (yes, we’re terrible, we shouldn’t be eating too much near the keyboard, etc). There’s some pictures here if you want (warning: ANTS!) I ended up having to take apart the keyboard (twice), rinse it, rinse the keycaps and the rubber contacts separately, then letting it dry overnight. I had already tried putting it back together last night, but it led to some weird problems like the R key rebooting the computer, or the 0 key randomly getting pressed continuously. I figured there was still moisture in the contacts so some additional dry time was needed This is the second time I’ve tried to take apart and reassemble a keyboard due to an insect infestation (hindi natututo…), but last time the keyboard didn’t work after I put it back together. This time seems more successful It seems to work fine now, except that in the process I’ve lost one screw (it’s somewhere under my desk, I don’t have a flashlight to look for it with) and one rubber contact (I chose to sacrifice the Scroll Lock key). A second rubber contact was so worn down it was almost unresponsive - I moved it to the Pause/Break key. I have no other keys left to sacrifice so hopefully that’s it.
