It was already rapidly de-industrializing, but now with the energy crunch, they can't even produce basic materials economically, concrete/steel/glass/aluminum.

Will source code be made available, as is required for QMK license?
I ask because I can not find anything for Diversity TKL, your previous project. I don't see anything named Diversity in QMK repo. There is nothing in VIAL repo for diversity. It's not in the VIA supported keyboards list. I can't find even find firmware binary or via json file online.
Okay, I'll make the firmware open-sourced in keyspensory's dc channel first once the GB is over. As for Diversity, I made it open-sourced in the dc channel already.

Not so much for pasta, but for rice, pressure cookers work great.
Steep rice overnight, at the end of steep, water should be approximately 0.7 cm above rice, ensure flat even surface when placed on heating surface. Heat to boil, wait for pressure lock, pressure lock 3 minutes at low-medium flame, flame off, residual cook 15 minutes.
Pressure cooking rice uses significantly less fuel/power than electric cookers, but it's not plug and play as it takes some fanangling because different heating setups can over the vessel and char the bottom too much.
For pasta, the pressure cooker doesn't really cook it much faster.

A lot of older pest control practices did rely heavily on broad-spectrum chemicals, and those could absolutely impact beneficial insects like bees and caterpillars.
far fewer of them.
As a beekeeper, I am deeply vexed whenever a "pest control" van drives down my street, and that is very often.
Our society spews ludicrous amounts of "--icides" into our environment, and insects take the biggest hit. Just considering the birds that visit my feeders, even among those who generally eat seeds, their chicks need more protein-rich and easier-to-digest food, and that is usually in the form of caterpillars. From the University of Illinois Extension:
"They do this from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m. for each of the 16 to 18 days it takes the chicks to fledge. That's a total of 350 to 570 caterpillars every day, depending on how many chicks they have. So, an incredible 6,000 to 9,000 caterpillars are required to make one clutch of chickadees."
Those caterpillars are scarfing up whatever is on the surfaces of whatever leaves they are munching on.
That said, modern pest control has evolved a lot. Companies like Clarksville Pest Control Pros that offer pest control Clarksville TN services typically use what’s called Integrated Pest Management (IPM). This approach focuses on targeted treatments instead of blanket spraying. The goal is to control harmful pests while minimizing any impact on beneficial insects, birds, and the surrounding environment.

I’m an Alu lover (PC isn't my thing) and I prefer having material options like Alu/Brass/Copper backplates. Hope to see a 60% or TKL from you next
