Thankful Friday

[mdlbear]

Today I'm thankful for...

• Livestreamed video.
• Finding stuff Curio will eat.
• My family.
• My team at work. Nothing like being loaned out for a quarter to highlight the differences.
• Affordable LED lighting, pocket supercomputers, and other wonders of modern technology.
• Gear. Sometimes the oddest stuff comes in handy.
• Decent keyboards.
• Rain. Also, not being in California anymore, where they don't have it.

Yay!

Rain?

You lucky sod!

That "decent keyboards" is also a bit jealousy-inducing, LOL. Hubby just replaced the keyboard on my laptop, but the spaceabar is still kaput.

Frankly, that /these/ are my big worries at the moment is AWE-inducing. Thank you for reminding me of that, even indirectly.

Decent, in this case, can be defined as "Thinkpad" -- one can get genuine thinkpad keyboards repackaged as USB keyboards. They've stopped making the best one, unfortunately; the newer ones are still pretty good, but don't have the sculpted keys or the small trackpad. On the other hand, they *do* have a "windows" key, which means they work with a Mac.

Genuine IBM Model M and other buckling-spring keyboards are not merely "decent" but "Real". Unicomp still makes them, from the original design.
