If you ever get a chance to tour an old WW2 sub definitely take it. You can't get a good idea of just how claustrophobic it was until you go on one. Watching 'Das Boot' is the next best thing. Masterful film.

I visited the USS Bowfin at Pearl Harbor - that was pretty cool! I had no idea that, from the top deck, you can see through the grill and see the real hull of the sub (and the tanks etc.). You can't see that in a movie!

Yeah - I was aware of the issues from the Amazon reviews and a year on still an issue. They must have bought a LOT of fake Omron switches or something.

Currently I mitigate the problem by setting the debounce delay to 4 milliseconds. Not too many double clicks with that.

Agreed that the price is absurd. I was happy to see it uses optical switches, but the price makes it a big nope.

That reminds me - my superlight Pulsar xlite mini wireless has an intermittent double-click issue. I may have to break out the soldering iron soon.

For the price of the M75, you could get a Pulsar xlite mini, soldering iron set, and replacement switches from aliexpress.

I purchased this Corentium Airthings monitor back in 2018: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H30TLPA

I am not sure if there are newer models available. Best Buy may also have it too!

The super-annoying thing about Radon is that the levels could be seasonal, or subject to the weather(!). For example, low (or is it high?) pressure front could make the gas come out faster. So you would need the monitor to stay in one place in the house for months, and check on it every week, to make sure there are no spikes.

Blue, if you work in your basement be mindful of ventilation to disminish radon levels, highest there in any building.

Limit your time to what is reasonably necessary, specially don't pass your idle time or sleep there.

I live in Alberta which also has high radon levels. I got mitigation done finally, when the radon was double the Canadian recommended limit (which itself is 4x higher than the EU recommended levels).

Lung cancer is implicated by Radon levels in the house. It may be a good idea to invest in a radon meter (Amazon has a few of those).

EDIT: radon can be pushed into the rest of the house by forced air circulation, or drafts coming from the basement.

Maybe another household member entered the wifi credentials when you were away from the computer? Or your windows install is so old, that you entered the credentials years ago when you put together the PC in the previous house? Or it carried over from you laptop if you signed in with the same Microsoft account? Hmmm...

I wish there was a TKL version of the Wooting. Bonus points if it could be wireless too!

I would also love a Wooting gaming pad, along the lines of the Nostromo N52...

I used to get that dreaded disconnect and reconnect sound effect all the time. Maybe once every two days, all my USB devices will disconnect and then reconnect. Disabling power saving helped, but it still happened. Then my old Anker USB3 9 port hub died. After I replaced it, I might get a disconnect once a week or every 2 weeks. Hmmmmm....

One day I noticed that my USB3 KVM (2 PCs, 4 devices) would cause the reconnect issue if I put pressure on the case. Ugh.

Maybe you can try detaching as many USB devices from the PC as you can? Just to rule out some weirdness with devices that might trigger a reset? Or check your cables - maybe you have a flaky USB hub somewhere. I just hope it isn't a SATA issue - those can be a pain to diagnose and fix.

I use Fan Control. Also has a github repo for it!
https://getfancontrol.com/

I use it to control the fans and monitor things - takes a bit of effort to set up but works well with my old ASRock Taichi Z390 motherboard. Simple UI at least.

It could be a power supply issue too? Although it could be hard to tell if it is thermal or power. Usually if it is the latter you get a more fatal crash (ie. reboot) but sometimes it just causes the game to crash.

Using MSI Afterburner to lower the powerlimit could help in the same way as limiting the framerate, perhaps. Lots of things to try!
