Mmm, that is true. But honestly, the amount of carbonation I do get is enough, for me. Just enough to make it taste a bit fancier.

Oh whoops, thanks for the correction!

Sounds like… Dykes. See: The Netherlands.

My Sodastream has saved me a lot of money—with some cheap syrups I just make very inexpensive nice drinks. Especially considering I got mine second-hand and refill it through a local guy who fills the cylinders for half the price. I suppose I could save even more money if I figure out how to refill the cylinders myself.

Though you could say that all those things influence the collective more than the individual, of course.

(Of course, being able to do this stuff in the first place is a testament to the freedom Linux provides.)

Oof, I feel you on the video call thing. I use a semi-complicated setup of switching between (7.1 surround) speakers and headphones, plugged into two separate sound cards, too… And a Zoom recorder connected with USB for sound, and Droidcam for a webcam. So many possible points of failure. I had it all working during COVID, but when I have to video call now, I just install the needed app and use my phone 🙈

Autocorrect, probably?

Ha! I’ll live 😅 And there’s plenty of modding things I can still buy for it… Keycaps, switches, foam to fill it with…

Just the ones that come with it, for now… I’m watching the online second hand market place of my country for offerings of switches, as I don’t want to spend too much. And it’s better for the environment, too! I’ve heard pretty much all keycaps by the HMX brand are good, so that’s what I have a search alert for.

I got a mechanical keyboard after researching a ton on which one I wanted. second-hand, so I was a bit restricted to what was offered. I’m getting a Keychron V5 Max, which I’m then going to mod with some new keycaps, a tape-mod and possibly filling it up with foam. The YouTube channel Hipyo Tech has been on the top of my YouTube binge list the last few weeks.
