So the plan is:

1. Fix the money situation. Will prolly happen by late January.
2. Buy a genuine Cherry MX Blue keyboard.
3. (optional) Type "FUCK" as the first word on this bad boy.
4. Enjoy.
1. Done.
2. Cannot be done because my back hurts a crap ton. Didn't see that one coming.

Will peruse Avito (Russian Craigslist/eBay/Jawa equivalent) in search for something remarkable for the time being.

Get well soon!

Well I'm part of the invading team scissor here. My UltraX from 2004 lasted 11 years. Would love to find something similar again.

what the cause is
Muscular damage. The only medicine is having a rest. High temperatures won't do anything.

Also... I'm a big man (zero % obese, just 5 inches taller than average), I don't fit my bathtub. Walking to a sauna with my back hurting that much is also problematic.

Not saying it will fix it, but it might feel good at least. Do as you wish of course.

Yeah all regular tubs are for kids, I'm 6'5" so I know that you mean. Only way is to leave the legs/knees in the air, getting them cold lol.

Found an interesting offer on a keyboard. Apparently I'm gonna enter my type-o-matic mode next week!
