People are gonna tell you no, but there was a post a few years ago where someone did an actual comparison over short and long term use and found that there was virtually no difference to krytox when applied correctly. Anyone who's tried it that says otherwise either used too much or mistakingly used the wrong formula. Also, I see someone said you only have to lube once, and while I think it's excessive to do so, if you want your board to be absolutely perfectly tuned forever, you will need to re-lube every 2-3 years, but it really isn't worth the effort.

They are based off an old school Dasher terminal from the 70’s. The ones on the show were custom built and actually function. The actors are actually refining numbers into bins. If you’re not aware, this is from the show Severance.

The terminals they are based off of https://terminals-wiki.org/wiki/index.php/Data_General_6053

Someone: you use wrist rest? Nice, is it the same size as your keyboard or bigger, I have hard time finding one that looks good and also fits

OP: it is currently 100% but it will soon be the matching size of my keyboard, and soon to be 40, then macro pad size and next thing you know, nothing left!
