An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Agreed. I mean, it’s no “I dug a hole” but it’s up there.
What am I looking at here?
Looks like he bent a paper clip to restore the bounce to the clip that springs open to hold the keyboard up at an angle, which is better for your wrists than typing on it while it's flat.
I wish people would stop spreading that myth. It’s better that you keep your wrists flat than angled upwards. If you’re the kind of person who rests your wrists on the keyboard then you need to keep the keyboard flat not angled. Angled keyboards are only better if you float your wrists like people who used to use typewriters did.
The flipper that makes the keyboard more inclined. The little bendy thing on the upper side in the Pic looks broken, so it looks like wire was bent in place to replace that tension and hold the flapper in place.
So a minor fix to a little broken bit of plastic, very dull indeed.
Indeed.
The keyboard feet are interesting to me. I never use them; they’re anti-ergonomic (your hands drape down from the wrist, not twist up), so I don’t understand their popularity. Yet they’re on nearly every keyboard.
Good fix.
Could be your desk is at the wrong height. Maybe too low? It should be around elbow height.
I find a slight angle more ergonomic. Less lifting the wrist.
