You might look into the Kailh Box switches. The click leaf adds a distinct tactile bump, plus the sound factor. The Box Navy is almost painfully tactile.

A $87,000 dinette set and a 97-cent roadster.
I wonder if it's just so far outside the scope of what capitalists know to risk model that it's not a compelling bet. The "it's 20-50 years on" timelines are also a hard sell.
If you win by delivering a reactor, you unlock so many knock-on effects.
Does your business immediately get subsumed on national security grounds? Does a massive reshape of the energy market cut off your current gravy trains? How do you monetize "too cheap to meter"?
Researchers don't care. They're in it for the cool project.
Try RiscOS for a glimpse of a world most of us missed.
I'd also suspect there are things that may not be "learnable" -- if you don't have great spatial perception or colour vision, that might not really be a skill than can be practiced.
Copaganda drama with pop-up analysis from real legal experts. Includes corny Blind Date style graphics and bell that goes off every time Constitutional rights are violated.
Shark Tank, but the panel is four minimum wage workers and the guests are VCs who have to justify their current wealth.
A McLaughlin Group style panel discussion but one guest each week is an intentional novelty (reads ChatGPT responses verbatim, foreigner with know knowledge of local politics making it up on the fly, Marjorie Taylor Greene)
South Sesame Street, from the writers of The Wire.
The worry is that it feels like we're moving past a consumer-directed economy and not in the wholesome Soviet five-year-plan way.
The almighty market has figured out how to collude and cram stuff that people don't want down our throats (what consumer wanted everything to turn into an enshittified subscription?)
Real people may not want AI slop, but if there's enough of a sense it will make line go up, we're getting slop.
On the other hand, this factor might be the salvation: the current AI market is full of 2000-era-dot-com business models based on selling at a loss and making it up on the promise of global domination later. If the VC money dries up, and every "delve" costs whatever the actual amount it costs to drain the oceans and oilfields to pump into an array of Quadros plus sufficiently reimbuse all the ghouls that bankrolled the project, maybe the line doesn't go up anymore.
Is it the same Raymond Loewy known for the Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1 electric locomotives?
It's nifty that's what's worth the BOM price hike.
I wanted something like Memtest or advanced diagnostics, or a recovery tool which could mount popular filesystems and fix partition tables, or a burn-in suite. Or hell, boot-to-Tetris.
I wonder if there's a gacha aspect to it too, the way it says "pulled firat try"
You used to at least specifically choose the soulless gumball-eyed character you wanted
It does. It's on a historic registry I think, so thry put a packet into restoring it.
