     @kaia equally nice would be social parity where girls and boys don't feel pressured or offended if it the other likes you, or if they don't.

     The hardest part for me is learning that not everyone likes coffee, so I cannot pressure them into being coffee if they're not.

     Some people like tea, some people like coffee, and some will never compromise for the other if they're content in their preference.

     We need to be OK with knowing that we're not everyone's cup of tea (or coffee).

     Do you already have an Azeron or other "chording keyboard"?

     I've used other split keyboards, handheld chording keyboards, and desktop chording keyboards.

     Chording keyboards are AWESOME for one-handed typing, speed typing, and gaming, but have an enormous learning curve and rely heavily on muscle memory.

     I had a Twiddler 2, Twidder 3, and AlphaGrip.

     AlphaGrip and TrueGrew on my favorites, but neither are immediately easy. Learning curve for both.

     Nice. Haven't gone as far as an ultrawide yet, but probably will when I do a new build. Right now I'm running a 1440p primary with two secondary monitors on my 4070 (had to replace my 1080 Ti last year after 5 years of regular use).

     If Azeron's not already on your radar, highly recommend as a keypad whenever your current one starts giving up the ghost. I see you're well cultured on that as well 😁

     Two home office rigs, with the latest running an Nvidia RTX 4090 on 5K HDR.

     My wife uses the upstairs office while I use the downstairs office.

     My wife agrees with you about the RAT. It's not her favorite for feel or quality, but I don't mind it.

     The downstairs monitor is 32:9 and her monitor is 21:9. I've been using the same cases and upgrading the internals.

     Outstanding keyboard! Makes me miss my ergo, but I'm used to my Razer Blackwidow now.

     From what little you've shown, you have refined and exquisite tastes.

     Thanks! Have had the Ergodox EZ for about 4 years now. Such a great keyboard, and ZSA's customer service is fantastic. At the end of my warranty it was looking like I had a bad set of switches with how many were starting to give double inputs within the 2 years, so in addition to the 10 or so switches they sent for that, they sent me enough to replace every switch on the board if I need to.

     Need to clean up my desk for a more up to date battlestation pic

     Seconded. Got something of a jump start on that being a long tail anomaly in a number of ways, and then eventually stopped bothering to pretend normality.

     That said, I definitely still partition how much I reveal about myself depending on the context.

     Even in tea preferences I'm a little different 😆
