It is.
Not my fault that the keyboard came with those switches pre-installed. They made too much noise for my liking, my Dark Yellows are much better in this regard.
So I'm about half-way through testing with the Keychron, and I do like it in both wired and wireless modes. The issue I've had with the wireless mode is that occasionally the connection will stutter for about 2-3 seconds, causing the previous key to be typed nearly all the way across the screen. Other than this issue, the keyboard is fine; outside of the optional numpad I will need to get if I decide to use it going forward; especially with work. Haven't decided whether or not to build my own numpad or go with a prebuilt one. Also, Prime Day is coming up towards the end of the month; and that'll celebrate the 1-yr anniversary of the thread being created.
Also, Facebook/IG is Trump-free for 2 more years.

It still amazes me to this fucking day that Yatta was a super-popular song outside of Japan.

Did my quarterly review of contracts for myself and the contractors that work for me. The contract house I work with got rid of the technology agreement that requires the use of wired peripherals all around, so I have a Keychron K6 ordered for testing Bluetooth-to-PC connections. I'm 95% sure I'm retiring my full-size GMMK at this point and going completely wireless, except for instances where I have to be in a conferencing room remotely. There is one bad thing though about the K6 ... it's coming with Gat browns installed 🤮

I had a Young Turks phase, and an incredible crush on Ana Kasparian during said phase ... hooboy, it was something.

Latest pull from LRG for the Switch. Actually looking forward to this, as I've never had a Neo-Geo Pocket Color.

There are a lot better news channels/radio shows to listen to than TYT, I will give you that. But yeah, they're considerably outdated; and outclassed by podcasts like Pod Save America.

I've thought about going to a concert in the fall, but haven't decided on what band to go see. It doesn't help that Dallas is a hotbed for Indie music, and has been for several years now. Last time I went to a concert pre-pandemic was for a music blog, and they had a indie band I was big into at the time as headliners. I'd have to see if the missus would be okay with me taking an evening away from the house.

Been drawing down my schedule at work. Where I was working 60+ hours a week before in a supervisory capacity, I'm now working 15-20 hours a week, 20 at the absolute most. Reason being ...
Got a call from the local examiner handling my disability case on Friday last week, and him and the determination services agent were in absolute agreement; in that my benefits should have never stopped to begin with. They're reinstating my benefits as of June 2019 (two months after leaving the VA as an employee) - and are in the process of calculating backpay, which is prob going to reach in the low five figure range for a lump-sum payment (We're thinking around $16k here). Only problem is that it takes 3-4 months for the paperwork to be filed, and the lump sum to be sent my way.

I have a 4TB external drive that I originally bought for my PS4 Pro, when I got my PS5 in early January it was literally as simple as disconnecting it from the Pro, and plugging it into the PS5's USB ports on the back. I have considered updating to something a little higher capacity now that Sony is letting PS5 games be copied to external storage. I may search out one of the newer WD USB drives like an above post and migrate everything over.
