My w10 machine says it doesn't meet minimum requirements for w11. I'm safe!

I learned Dvorak. It was a painful four months going from chicken pecking a few words per minute to touch-typing. I would echo this advice. DO NOT pop the keys off and replace them. There are too many things baked into the BIOS or when you reinstall the OS, and you need to find the right key on a QWERTY layout.

I know it's painful, but learn to type without looking at the keyboard. Print off a paper guide and place it below the monitor, and reference THAT when key hunting. Being able to touch-type is a serious superpower you will thank yourself for learning in the future.

That's a good point, and you're probably right. With how expensive it is to survive, not to mention American healthcare, I don't think I mind the tradeoff. I'd rather die immediately than have lifelong injuries I can't pay for nor work off.

Well shit, I thought they were talking about cockrings too.

For real. If I'm getting an EV, I'm getting it for efficiency, not luxury. I wouldn't be traveling across the state or the country. I'd be using it to get to work and get the groceries. You can't tell me it's not possible to make something with an electric motor, spartan accessories, and a decent range for less than 12-15k. Seriously, I don't want a car that drives itself. I don't really even want automatic transmissions, although electric almost negates the need for any transmission. I just want a car that is cheap, does the job, and that I don't have to chop my left nut off for these days.
