    yeah it's got the "I gotta pace myself" trifecta- expensive, delicious and high liquid fire potential.

    As long as I've got a quality keyboard in a good spot, it never bothers me either.


    Mice are the devil anyway :laughing:

    We have one of those fancy ergonomic keyboards at an empty desk here that I've thought about swiping for myself...I just use the standard Apple one. But the ergonomic one looks difficult to use, shits like banana shaped with rolling hills, wtf.

    I think I may have one like that. It was nice and was good for wrists, but sucks in an environment where something might get under the keys. Got a piece of wire insulation under a key on mine and so I popped the key off and can't get it back together. Lame.

    Thanks man. I got a new armband today actually that is a compression sleeve with the pressure pads and velcro and its working a bit better than the single non sleeve band. It's really annoying how it just developed out of almost nowhere. I hope I don't get to not lifting my morning coffee, but this morning I did use my other hand.
    Did it just fade out slowly for you?

    Yep all our trucks were made at NUMMI in Fremont. NUMMI was a joint venture between Toyota and General Motors, before they went defunct in 2010. Tesla bought the factory after that.

    My truck was sold new at Fremont Toyota, I’m pretty sure they drove it straight off the assembly line to the dealership 5 minutes away.

    Some trucks also say TABC, Inc. TABC is the Toyota subsidiary in Long Beach who made the beds, but final assembly was still at NUMMI.

    My family’s Model 3 rolled off the same assembly line as the Tacoma did 24 years ago.

    Many years ago I bought a gaming keyboard with small keys that has the same touch and feel as the keyboard of a laptop.

    The idea was so I wouldn't need to reorient my touch when moving between a laptop and the big clunky old keyboards. It seems to have worked and reduces wrist movement.

    The original IBM keypunch machines had tiny keyboards that kept wrist movement to a minimum -- somewhat like a stenotype machine.

    May have to give that a shot. I'm using Logitech gaming keyboard right now which has nice keys, but is also on a reverse inclined keyboard tray. Seems to keep the wrists in a good spot, the angle seems to be really key.

    Definitely tempted by one of those Thinkpad usb keyboards though, did a ton of typing on mine and it always felt good.

    @jbrandt do you remember if your dealer j59s were side specific when you installed them?
