You might look into the Kailh Box switches. The click leaf adds a distinct tactile bump, plus the sound factor. The Box Navy is almost painfully tactile.

A $87,000 dinette set and a 97-cent roadster.
I wonder if it’s just so far outside the scope of what capitalists know to risk model that it’s not a compelling bet. The “it’s 20-50 years on” timelines are also a hard sell.
If you win by delivering a reactor, you unlock so many knock-on effects.
Does your business immediately get subsumed on national security grounds? Does a massive reshape of the energy market cut off your current gravy trains? How do you monetize “too cheap to meter”?
Researchers don’t care. They’re in it for the cool project.
Try RiscOS for a glimpse of a world most of us missed.
I’d also suspect there are things that may not be “learnable” – if you don’t have great spatial perception or colour vision, that might not really be a skill than can be practiced.
Copaganda drama with pop-up analysis from real legal experts. Includes corny Blind Date style graphics and bell that goes off every time Constitutional rights are violated.
Shark Tank, but the panel is four minimum wage workers and the guests are VCs who have to justify their current wealth.
A McLaughlin Group style panel discussion but one guest each week is an intentional novelty (reads ChatGPT responses verbatim, foreigner with know knowledge of local politics making it up on the fly, Marjorie Taylor Greene)
South Sesame Street, from the writers of The Wire.
“Destroying a nation” does not inherently mean “genocide”.
That was the historic norm. If you lost a war, you ended up under the flag of the conquering country and were expected to adopt at least some aspects of their culture. But in general, much of the civilian population survived. A thousand states vanished from Europe in the last millenium, but only a handful of times did it result in their entire populations being slaughtered/displaced.
I suspect much of the time, it was more valuable to have more subjects than a lot of empty land with nobody to work it. Not like Russia has that problem already…
The worry is that it feels like we’re moving past a consumer-directed economy and not in the wholesome Soviet five-year-plan way.
The almighty market has figured out how to collude and cram stuff that people don’t want down our throats (what consumer wanted everything to turn into an enshittified subscription?)
Real people may not want AI slop, but if there’s enough of a sense it will make line go up, we’re getting slop.
On the other hand, this factor might be the salvation: the current AI market is full of 2000-era-dot-com business models based on selling at a loss and making it up on the promise of global domination later. If the VC money dries up, and every “delve” costs whatever the actual amount it costs to drain the oceans and oilfields to pump into an array of Quadros plus sufficiently reimbuse all the ghouls that bankrolled the project, maybe the line doesn’t go up anymore.
Is it the same Raymond Loewy known for the Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1 electric locomotives?
It’s nifty that’s what’s worth the BOM price hike.
I wanted something like Memtest or advanced diagnostics, or a recovery tool which could mount popular filesystems and fix partition tables, or a burn-in suite. Or hell, boot-to-Tetris.
I wonder if there’s a gacha aspect to it too, the way it says “pulled firat try”
You used to at least specifically choose the soulless gumball-eyed character you wanted
Four ears is a problem. It’s so hard to get four-channel headphones.
I read an interesting book recently- “Paved Paradise”- that basically blamed a lot of urban planning problems on there being too high mandates for parking:
I’m surprised there aren’t a small range of full-height 8-platter 5.25" form factor drives, the kind that would be 1GB in like 1993, for the bragging rights for max-capacity-in-a-single-drive.
The first three are illegible, but the last two are “lettuce woman”.
I’d love to get a SSD with provisioning controls; I understand you could force, say, a 2TB QLC drive to be a 256GB SLC drive by forcing the controller to use it in SLC mode.
Tell 'em it’s for the heritage program. Railfans love superfluous smoke for the camera.
I suspect it could be seen as a proper noun.
If Acme and FooCorp create a bridge between their private network spaces, it’s an internet (common noun) but not the Internet (proper noun, referring to the one with Goatse).
Let’s find an English teacher. And yell at them for forcing us to read the same terrible novel in both 10th and 12th grades. Maybe after that, return to this subject.
It does. It’s on a historic registry I think, so thry put a packet into restoring it.
