What the hell is going on, why I keep braking things, or why things brake when i touch them recently?
I never broke anything, from toys in early age, till now. What the hell...

Greed and Covid.
Things have been getting cheaper and cheaper for money reasons  (en****ification) but Covid also caused material shortages and caused/allowed companies to cut corners, then the greedy owners realized they could just keep making things with cheaper parts and keep prices jacked up.

For example GPU cards PSU's are/were failing early but one industry particularly hit hard is cars. Car mechanics are now buying 3 or more parts just to get 1 that works
GM used to sell good replacement suspension parts, they now just put their sticker on a crappy Chinese knock-off and crank the price, the same part everyone paid for OEM parts to avoid. Ford and several mountain bike manufacturers were/are removing features with an asterisk in the marketing that it was/is based on part availability. So you could pay for an upgraded model only to get a lower level spec model with a sticker. You really do not want a covid era vehicle if you expect it to last.

Anything made about mid 2020 when supply lines started to get stretched to 2023 in particularly is suspect in quality but some stuff still had yet to recover and likely may never.

Now that I've started using the Sanwa, I do actually have a few gripes about it now. Firstly, Sanwa decided to keep the same default layout as the MTE, so right click is on the thumb cluster instead of your ring finger.

I didn't know that was the standard layout for the MTE. Makes me wonder why do users hold it in such high regard then?
Being in Dubai, trackballs are not common, unlike gaming mice. So most people over here don't even have a clue. The only trackballs I've seen in tech shops are Logitech M570 and Trackman marble FX. My knowledge only comes from watching reviews on Youtube and posts on here.

Hello,

I have two TKL keyboards, one with mx clears the other with topre 55g. I am trying to clean the topre keyboard and have tried canned air as well as a qtip with rubbing alcohol and it doesn't get these like weird white gunks off my keyboard. I have a hard rule to not eat over my keyboard, and I only drink water so the only dirt I really see between my keys ever was dust so... not sure what's up! Will be creating a new thread  https://vlc.onl/ solar smash .

Hope to learn a lot here

Try using a soft toothbrush with isopropyl alcohol or a magic eraser for stubborn residue. Compressed air helps with dust, but deeper cleaning may require removing keycaps.

That’s a wonderful offer! Perfect opportunity to grab some new keycaps or switches.
