Keychron V2, choose the prebuilt with either red or brown switches. If those are too loud, you can swap the switches for silent ones. I am out of date with switches nowadays, but Rtings says TTC blueish-white are good, so that might not be a bad starting point for your research.

Quick edit: for the software, you could also run it in a Windows VM then give the VM access to the USB port.

Also, if you can make do without keyboard specific software, there are some new old stock BTC 5100C boards on eBay. You'll need an AT to PS/2 converter if you want to connect it to a desktop, but all in it should be under $70 USD, excluding shipping. The layout (75% but really really weird) takes getting used to, and it doesn't have N key Rollover if that is something that matters for you, but they are a quieter keyboard than most due to their BTC dome with slider mechanism.

Chyrosran22 did a review of the switch [link]. Fair warning: I don't know if he does in that video, but he can use very non-PG language at times, so if you aren't OK with that you might want to avoid the video.

Edit edit: also on mine the space bar stabilization is utter garbage, its been a while but I think only after a bandaid mod and lube was it acceptable. Legit I think even a person who just uses generic office keyboards might complain about the space bar, it's that bad.

All Yesterdays is the first one that comes to mind

Sorry to be annoying, but something I just thought of that might be really important: Did you buy it as an adult? If so, do you know if it was previously owned by a person before the store got it?

I ask this because there is a chance your lizard is wild caught, which as far as I can tell would mean the store you got it from committed a crime.

Wild caught animals are usually adults when sold, and captive bred are usually juveniles when sold. Let me know if I can clarify

Glad to hear! Other thing I just thought of: get a front opening enclosure! Not only is it easier for you, but it also makes the lizard more comfortable, as your hands will be on the same level as the lizard instead of above the lizard. This is important because in the wild things coming from above usually want to eat the lizard instead of gently holding it

I know I am late on this, but I just joined this community, saw this post, and got curious. Any updates? I would also suggest checking Reptifiles (link: https://reptifiles.com/blue-tongue-skink-care/) as they have really good and really well researched care information, and potentially some useful stuff on handling (link to that: https://reptifiles.com/blue-tongue-skink-handling/)

Feel free to ping me or whatever if I can help in the future!

Honestly, I find it pretty decent. I only wish I could see timestamps per message on the new UI

Why is it weird? I mean, I don't wear a belt if I do sleep in my jeans, but since that wasn't specified in the meme I would assume it isn't relevant

Pull the switch as the trolley is on that rail so it gets stuck and the trolley kills nobody

If it makes it any better, it would be a sort of small crocodile, at "only" 8 feet (2.6 meters ish ish) long.

I only have one plugged in right now, but I have an Intellimouse Pro, a Zowie EC1-C, a Corsair Sabre Pro, a Mionix Naos Pro, a Cooler Master MM720, and my current main which is a Keychron M6.

If the M6 was longer, then it would probably be my favorite with no contest. Likewise if the Intellimouse was lighter with a better cable that would probably be my main

Probably not, since there has to be some processing of the noise to identify what it is. TheBackyardScientist did a video somewhat similar to that, here: https://piped.video/watch?v=4WSQqDHK1Yw
