Took a chance on a $10 cit-101e terminal from property disposition on campus. Shockingly, it works, but is showing the keyboard error as I don't have one. Anyone have any leads on one?

I was reading a story about Musk's MEGA comments and thought "Maybe I'm focused on the wrong person. Maybe it's Elon that's the real Nazi." Then I move to another news site, front and center is the image of the Nazi giving the Nazi salute...
Eh... They all suck.

Printed a case upgrade for the Kim uno. I think it came out looking rather snazzy. I'm going to have to tip the person that created the model!
I'm also going to have to print an adapter for the power switch so that I can reach it, though...
