my instrument/piano is my xanax, it is one of the only things that can quiet me down and an important vehicle for my one of my main mediums of emotional expression. Yes it , if i needed to replace it , i could buy a pretty good car for less (in terms of new replacement value/what insurance needs to be on it), but even if it was a junky little spinet, i would treasure it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fetyNYJtSaE

My keyboard collection is super important to me, and a lot of it would be extremely difficult to replace if anything were to happen to it.

I don't really have much of a story behind it, it's just what I happen to be passionate about and I've learned a *lot* over the years building, collecting, and interacting with the community: )

A 1971 Hot Wheels catalog that I've had as long as I can remember. I don't know where I got it or even when but I somehow still have it, intact and undamaged after all these years and many, many military moves. I still look through it sometimes.

It's a time machine, it gets me to some wonderful experiences, it's gotten me to some of the coolest things I've ever seen;

It's a workhorse that goes pretty much ANYWHERE without complaint, (including a job that allows me to spend WAY too much on Schtuff at Massdrop), it never lets me down.

of course it's not REALLY mine -

I'm just the chauffeur.

I remember the day I went to buy this game after playing it for many hours at a friend, and continuing to play it for weeks and months after at home. #2 game right after Vanilla WoW. This box has incredible memories attached to it. I was around 9 years old or so back then.

OblotzkyOh yes my copies of the Petz games are very important to me. I've had Petz 4 for around 20 years and I still pick it up sometimes--it has a small but active modding community that I got into a few years ago, I was too dumb to figure it out as a child lmao.

I could lose a lot of things but not this. I would do almost anything to keep this. I’ve owned this the longest out of all the things I currently own.

I don't have any cool heirlooms. Nor did I keep much of my stuff from childhood. I have a few prized possessions -- things I take great pleasure in. First would be my coffee setup. I have a nice kettle and pour over setup that I really love. I don't use it every day, but when I do use it, it's such a pleasure and it turns coffee from a drink into a craft. My second item would be my desk at home. I've got this wonderfully long desk. It just looks great. It gives me a great spot to put all my things (keyboards among them) and it's big enough to sit two people. My daughter and I can both sit at the desk at the same time which is really nice. Lastly, I'd say my computer is really important to me. I bought a *cough* iMac Pro *cough* and YES it's way over powered and over kill for what I need, but IT IS SO NICE. Long time Mac fan and yet I've only bought the laptops and even then, it was their "cheap" laptops. I've never had their top of the line computer. Some might argue about "top of the line" but for the things I'm interested in and do, it really is.
Now, I do expect that when the Kira keyboard comes in, combined with my laser keycaps, that could well become a true heirloom thing. I'm not kidding. But this won't happen for awhile, so it'll be just a wait and see.

Work around for firmware/configuration update error "command not recognized"

I spent more than an hour attempting to update my Drop Shift keyboard. I'm not sure what has changed, but I was not able to do it entirely from the Drop website as I had previously done. I have most of the keys configured how I would like, but the default LED function was a very bright, distracting, rainbow wave going across the keyboard. Every time I turned the computer on I had to manually adjust the lights how I liked. Using the online version or the locally installed app, you first have to install the QMK XAP interface. You then have to flash your already configured firmware file, which can be done on the Drop website. If you are logged in your last configuration is saved under your account and you can alter what you like, so you don't have to start from scratch. So, following the instructions I selected the appropriate board, entered bootloader mode, but when attempting to flash the file, I would get an error that the C:/Users/Mike C..... command is not recognized...

Spin the Wheel of Power

You know the story. 3 rings to the Elven-kings. 7 to the Dwarf-lords. 9 to mortal men. And 1 to the Dark Lord. What will your fate be? Spin the Wheel of Power to see where you land on the ring of prizes. Regardless of the outcome, be sure to take a look at the Lord of the Rings collection after claiming your prize. You can spin the wheel a maximum of three times, but much like those who have worn the Ring of Power—there's no turning back after that button is clicked. How did the journey go for you? Share your spoils below.
