   My friends call it the big D.

   Periodically, the "d" key on my keyboard stops working. Always and only "d". Power cycling the keyboard doesn't fix it. Plug the keyboard into a different computer: works fine over there. Rebooting the Mac fixes it. And I have now discovered: the mere act of launching NoMachine (without typing anything) fixes it -- for a while.

   It just █i█ it again, 5 minutes later, go█ █ammit.
