I didn't feel it ...
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Not too surprising, considering what happened north earlier in the week, but no news about it yet, so I applaud your bravery.

I'm a hero, glad you notice :)

It was a double roller, and the jerk movement made the heavy mirror break the wire it was hung with.

I was going to say maybe someone ran a really big vehicle into your house, but nevermind.

As you know, unless it's a whopper, it feels very different in various spots. Because of the length and the 2 separate movements, it was quite exciting for my neighborhood.

Such things!
