« Last post by Kaptain Mike on Thu, 10 September 2026, 21:07:12 »silly question, why no alps shorts space bar?
there are alice support in DCS Pingmaster. is the short space bar mold not open to use?
but beside that, nice color!
I’m sure it’s open to use but I’ve only gotten maybe 5 people ask for small bars. Not enough to justify adding that support, still taking feedback though.

A family may have had enough currency to buy a house and some cars.
After the crisis, that money was enough to buy a month worth of groceries.
THE POINT IS, When everyone went to "Press" the sell button, IT DIDN'T WORK.
The bank locked, allocated, and you're left with what you're left with.
Remember guys, MONEY IS NOT REAL. You've stored NOTHING but your fat-ass and that 1 sac of moldy potatoes.
Even your HOUSE, you DO NOT OWN, because it's not defensible, and you must pay property tax.
The "Sovereign Wealth" section isn't any better, All majors are shedding exposure right now.
But it's fundamentally irrelevant as simply, there is LESS STUFF that you could buy (with any-amount of money).
Groceries have gone up easily 100-200% already. You tell me what the real inflation is.

Tp4 recommends, buying 1-2 years worth of RICE.
Why rice Tp4, well, because if you bought flour, Making flour edible takes ALOT more energy, than steaming RICE.
ENERGY is exorbitantly EXPENSIVE, doesn't matter if you're gas or electric.
Remember, HYPoRINt -FLATION is a possibility, as the world de dolhairize. It might end up costing you $1 to cook a batch of rice. Imagine that for Bread which is 2-10x the energy.
You do not need the /spensive rice cooker, The $30 rice cooker works just as well, IF YOU PRE-SOAK the rice. Head to the the Tp4 rice thread for details.

Keyboards / Re: Three keys dead, how to fix?
« Last post by Shimene on Thu, 10 September 2026, 14:04:49 »Checking whether the three keys share the same row or column seems like a good first step. That should help narrow down whether it's a trace/PCB issue or something specific to the individual switches.

« Last post by Shimene on Thu, 10 September 2026, 13:56:05 »I didn't know about those holes either, that's actually pretty neat. I always thought you had to get underneath the housing to open it. Definitely something I'll keep in mind for my next switch project.
