"I've been away from Drop for a year or more..." he says! "Whatever happened to all the watches and knives and other cool gadgets?" he asks! I'll tell you what happened buddy; you and a bunch of guys like you, abandoned the site--that's what happened! Did you suppose MD was just gonna tread water 'till you's came back? Sorry buddy, but while you was out to lunch with the now-and-then-crowd, the big boss had what you'd call an "epiphany."
"You know, for kids!" he says. Now think about it buddy, how many eleven-hundred dollar watches, knives and cool gadgets did you buy, when you was here buddy? Yeah, that's what I thought. You see buddy, right about now they got kids lined up around the block with fists full of cash just wait'n to buy a pair of HD 8XXs. And you know what? When they come out with the new HD 9XXs six months from now, them same kids will still be lined up around the block! You ever stand in line for a watch or pocket knife buddy? No, I didn't think you's did. Well friend, that's the long and short of it--a simple case of you snooze, you loose, combined with the hard facts of time waits for no man, all served up with a side order of money talks and--well you know the rest, buddy My advise to you buddy it stop try'n swim up-stream—join the crowd. Get yourself a nice pair of cans and new keyboard while the get'n's good. 'Cuz buddy, you don't know how long that stuff's gonna be around either!
Is Drop just audiophile and keyboards now?
I've been away from Drop for a year or more, and I come back to find my... Feed or whatever it is littered with nothing but headphones and keyboards. Whatever happened to all the watches and knives and other cool gadgets? I'm not even subbed to the audiophile/keyboard communities.

I'm partially to blame (in the way @RayF described). I only bought from Drop occasionally, never high-dollar stuff (even when it was a great deal), and haven't lurked in months. It's all good. I found a social media site that takes much of my online time now. I'll post a couple wrist shots that I owe this space..

Drop Keyboard Club Questions
Hello everyone! I'm looking to join DKC, but I have a few questions. The first day of November has already passed. Will I still get the coupon for November immediately after signing up today (Nov. 10)? What is the definition of Mechanical Keyboard products? Will the coupon apply to desk mats? I believe it should apply to everything listed under this category? For orders under $79, the coupon will be converted to a percentage discount. Will the percentage discount apply to all mechanical keyboard items in an entire order, or it can only be applied to a single mechanical keyboard item in the order? Thanks in advance!

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...
