(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

If you are really careful, and skilled at operation kind of game it's possible to remove one side at a time, clip, put it back, then do the other side.

Its one thing that isnt a placebo on the pcb mount cherry stabilizers though. And Im one to agree that there are of placebos out there.

Costar stabilizers feel much more solid then cherry stabilizers, I know they're a pain when changing key caps, but I think that's a small price to pay. If the only solution to make cherry stabilizers more tolerable is a mod itself, then the design is obviously flawed.

i dunno.  swapping cherry stabs is a pain in the ass.  cant' ever get both sides to release properly and end up bending the bar (or somehow ruining the feel of the switch)
