You don’t have to solder if you use hot swap sockets for your switches. Even if you never plan to swap the switches the hot swap sockets mean you’ll never have to solder a thing 👍

Just build your own keyboard. That’s what I did (and it turned out fantastic) 🤷
Mice are much easier to deal with since there’s 500 million of them to choose from. Just pick a generic, no-name brand that doesn’t need drivers and you’re all set.
Aside: Building a keyboard isn’t rocket science. It’s just a bit tedious (buy a kit). Unless you invent your own 3D printable keyboard switch and stabilizers from scratch then design an analog circuit board to work with them (also from scratch). Then it’s a bit more like rocket science 🤣

I just shake the water off like a dog.
I’ve used this term before in a different context: It’s what happens when someone is about to do something that both scares and excites them at the same time. Like when a person suddenly finds themselves extremely attracted to someone and they want to make a good impression. That’s when their brain seems to be both there and not there at the same time.
When observing someone in this sort of situation you quickly come to the conclusion that the brain has gone but then later–upon reflection–it may seem like it may have actually been present. The only way to know for sure is to find out how the events eventually concluded; opening the box as it were.
That’s when you find out whether or not the person was a pussy.
Just your average dead whale beheading to bring home the trophy. Nothing special!
Conservatives: This is how the zombie apocalypse starts… With one person refusing to let medical professionals know about their problem.
I’d use a very real scenario of immigrants and “merely visiting” foreigners who get sick spreading any given disease (e.g. How do you think we ended up with Zika in Florida?) but I know conservatives aren’t interested in reality. Even JD Vance knows that in order to get conservatives attention you need to promote fiction.
The correct response is for thousands of people to respond on Xitter with, “And no one is even trying to assassinate Musk 🤔”
Check for sap-sucking bugs. Not all of them hang out in easy-to-see places all day. They could be down by the soil or under perfectly healthy looking leaves.
Even if you don’t see them it won’t hurt to spray some insecticidal soap here and there on to the plant. Sometimes it takes care of bugs you can’t see.
Don’t ever change, Catholic Church. More and more people are starting to catch on. In 100 years there might not be a Catholic Church anymore and the world will be better for it.
This headline could’ve appeared every month for the past 2000 years. It’s just that only in modern times are priests and pastors facing actual consequences.
Nonsense! Calum is doing what Calum does at home. If the company doesn’t want to see it they shouldn’t be watching him like that when he’s at home.
Remember: Calum isn’t feeling well. Any doctor would say Calum is doing his part to get better and stay healthy!
Clearly the company wants the employees to bring their sick children into the office. Bring the sniffling, sneezing, coughing, wipe-their-snot-on-everything child right into the boss’s office and proudly proclaim your support of the sick leave policy!
“Give my boss a hug, sweetheart!”

Just wanted to throw my hat into the ring: I like them too.
Now we just need inline looping gifs/videos and I’ll have every feature I’ve ever wanted👍
It’d be one thing if X didn’t actively promote disinformation but they are doing that. They’re picking what and who to promote via their algorithm.
If they had a hands-off approach to free speech (like any given Mastodon instance) I’d agree with you. Since that’s not the case I can’t see how it’s a, “slippery slope”. They’re actively promoting disinformation in order to push a political agenda that actively hurts the Australian people.
It’s basic liability, not really related to freedom of speech. You can say whatever you want but there can also be legal consequences for what you say. It’s always been like that. Even in the US.
Is there a “consequence news” Lemmy community? Seems like this would fall under that category.
Building your own keyboard is supposed to be fun. You do some research to figure out what you want. Maybe order some sample switches to try out, pick out a keycap set you like, and eventually settle on a kit.
When you order your kit it’ll include a case, a top plate, and a circuit board. If you get one with hot swap sockets you will not have to solder anything. You can literally just press the switches in.
Then when you’re done you screw everything together, put your keycaps on, and you have a working keyboard. Sometimes you have to flash the firmware as a final step but that’s not rocket science. You do not have to know how to program.
