Waterproof switches and keyboards of Noppoo do have their market apart from the China military.
Use a dog to clean perhaps. ;)

B/C you surely aren't the first to have "yogurt" on your keyboard.

Don't do that. It is a perfect candidate for a bolt-mod now and it will be good as new. Just don't let the residue set up on the traces.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

Only if it's the good stuff that burns as it goes down and makes you feel like you're on speed.  None of that fru-fru stuff with the Strawberries or other nonsense added

I know someone else put their model M in the dishwasher without realising it could damage it. Or was it just the case. In any case it got melted. Barrelframe isn't nearly as sturdy, so if it is made from PVC I would assume it would end up spectacularly bad after the treatment. Even if it's some other material, I wouldn't want to put it through the process.

Strap it to the top and drive through the car wash.

Must've been a hell of a lot of yogurt to get it into the barrels.

What about taking it apart and flushing it well with alcohol?

Wait, is this Greek yogurt?  You didn't specify.  If Greek yogurt then it can only be cleansed with fire.

If regular yogurt then sprinkle it with granola, dice some peaches, and find a spoon.  You'll have to dig it out manually.

Wouldn't yogurt simply solidify after a while and become non-conductive?
