Hi Steve, welcome. I was a silent member for a number of years, but since I retired I have more time to participate. You chose well.

Thanks for the heads up, Joe. The nerve of some people... they have no shame.

In tyhe first company I worked for we didn't have Internet access - only MSDN. At that time (2012-2018) MSDN often linked to StackOverflow and CodeProject, but we coulnd't see those results.
A lot of authorization and hemming and hewing later we had SO and CP opened. SO is what it is, and also quite useless in the fields I work in (it has been incredible for embedded Linux but luckily I don't reguarly work on it). And that's how I met CP.

i do not recall how i found this site several years ago though it was most likely for technical reasons . i have been fortunate to have learned a thing or two here of some such use also it provides me opportunity to make a fool of myself which you have no doubt already discerned . also occasional intermissions of such chatter whilst keyboard banging is appreciated and affords some relief .

Welcome!
I've been here since 2006. Got a lot of help with MIDI-related things at the time.
Nowadays, like nearly 16,000,000 other members, I mostly just lurk.
I check the news feed and the lounge first thing every morning: The news feed is essential reading. The lounge is a friendly place to hear what some experts/insiders are thinking. No surprise that I'm still here!
On behalf of all lurkers, many thanks to the CodeProject team for your help over the past decades! Well done!!

What a fun way to rack up those community points
I joined after signing up for the newsletter (recommended by my boss as a way to keep up with the tech) and wanting to comment on a Lounge question or comment. It's a great community. I've never seen a nasty response even in the face of strong disagreement. Opinions are respectfully sought, and honestly given.

Hey Steve. I'm a ghost - a figment of your imagination. I'm not really here. Despite that, I'm the guy that'll pop in every now and again to annoy people and defend JavaScript.

Hi Steve! Google kept referring me to this site 17+ years ago so I signed up for the newsletter. I really appreciated the wit/sarcasm in the taglines. (thanks Kent!) At some point I ventured into the Lounge and found a community of really smart people discussing really interesting topics.

Welcome, this is definitely a good place! They even accept a pure firmware dev like me (I've never touched C#). Lots of interesting discussions and helpful knowledgeable members. I'm retired now but I come here every morning to view the discussions.

I came for the newsletter's snarky comments and the good articles. I stayed for the good conversations.

... that dropping sun flower seeds into your mechanical keyboard may keep the keys from fully depressing?
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

Happy keys, indeed!
In my experience, pieces of rheophores do the trick as well.

Maybe an article on that would be appropriate?

If you hit the offending key with a hammer hard enough it will pulverize the seeds.
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

Coke, or coffee with sugar does a better job.
I have about seventeen extra keyboards just in case.
I didn't do it, I swear.

Take it in the shower with you and wash it out. Then dry.

This is actually not a bad suggestion. As long as you allow it to dry completely before applying any power to it.
