I don't use them, the 96% K4v2 and v3 are what I prefer for the compact but nearly full sized.

The k17 pro is ok but I don't enjoy the extra size. The smallest keyboards I can use are 60% or 10 keyless since I use function keys and num pads all to often.

If I was a writer and not do doing math/engineering related things I would skip the extra keys.

Home Keychron K4v2: Custom built (franken switch) Kailh Silent Box Browns. Bottom housing, and Springs are from Kailh Box Royals. Top housing, stem, and tactile hammer from the Box Browns.

Work Keycron K4v3: currently have the stock Keychron Banana switch and they are ok. I like the spring weight but im not in love with the rest of the switch. My board also came with 5 bad switches so thats not a great selling point.

Travel Keychron K17 Pro: Gateron LP Blues, fewer options so these are the ones I like to annoy people with on the train or airplane.

I have a bunch of other keyboards with different switches ranging from Outemu silent white, purples, to Cherry brown, and silvers.

I cant even remember all the switches I have, and I have given away so many to friends...

If there is complete societal collapse, then gold is going to be worth nothing, because you cant eat it. Bullets on the other hand you can use to take peoples food, or hunt for your own. So invest in bullets!

Now if you just expect financial collapse but not total societal then sure gold, silver, bonds are probably fine if you want "safe" stable ways to hold your investments.

In most cases, its just fear-mongering and gold has no more actual value than paper currency since they both derive their value from sentiment or perceived value. So if you show up at my house and offer me a small gold bar, you value at $10,000, and I value it at a potato, then your $10,000 is actually only worth a potato.

I would get everyone to sign the Paris agreement and give it real teeth for non compliance.

But I like eating normal meals and not doing forced labor. I also enjoy taking shit about my leaders and government.

The Epstein ballroom?

Totally understand, but now we need to primary him and get someone who will actually do the job, and not kowtow to AIPAC.

Cruelty is the point, as is poverty. Keeping you poor and always looking for the next meal means you will work for slave wages and let capitalism extract maximum value from your labor.

The rich are convinced there is only enough for them and that they must prevent you from having more to stay rich. In addition to that the rich think they are better people because they are rich. They dont give money away to actually help, they do it because it makes them feel like good people. Thanks in part to evangelicalism in the US there is also a perception that being wealthy is a blessing from God, so people who are poor, must not be with God. If the poor are not with God, then they should be punished for being Godless, which means they should be punished for being poor.

When you hear the phrase "eat the rich" its critique of this capitalist system that pushiness the poor and hungry for the gain of a few fragile ego's.

You want change? Then we need to replace the government with people who are working class, and not class traitors like Fettermen. Find progressive and socialist candidates like Bernie Sanders, Zohran Mamdani, Platner, and people who stand up for the many like Jasmine Crockett, AOC, and Katie Porter.
