This is what I get for having a busy day at work. -sulks-

raises hand quickly into the air I know. I know. Pick me. Pick me.

I'm trying to understand before committing a budget to it. From what I'm reading, this isn't a hobby for me.

I was curious about some of the hackeyboard firmwares and was toying with the idea of a Commodore clone type thing for the kids to play the retro game on.

Really dumb question for a lurker who may be starting their first build soon, what is the cost of a "budget build" keyb?

Precisely this. We're both adults. I'll tell you honestly. What you do and how you react to this information is on you.

We can talk through it. I'll make time for you.

Be a jerk about it. Get in the sea. I'm old. I'll live. I'll live better without you around. I guarantee it.

Cut me off. Again, I'll be fine.

You need a break. Great. Go live your life over there.

I'm older and don't have time other than just getting it out in the open. If they have a problem with it, that's on them.

I say this but I'm also known for openly stating where we stand. I got a co-worker who crossed me and I don't bother with them. They tried apologizing after several attempts to gaslight me while covering it up. We're done. Let's go to HR to hash it out.

Graphite (powder) is also a good dry lubricant.

Isn't that everyone on RI?
