I barely use Reddit because it got too big. Our brains can't handle to interact with thousands of different people, you don't interact with people anymore, you interact with reddit as a whole.
The other consequence of becoming too big is moderation, I keep seeing people complaining about mods, try to moderate anything with hundreds of daily posts and thousands of comments.
As I said, too big for its own good.

I imagine that if they managed to convince him is because he wasn't feeling too well.
In other words, maybe what killed him wasn't having bath but what made him change his mind about the bath.
I don't know, at least not yet. I've only been doing this for two years, maybe they didn't have time to gunk up.
I use the oil I buy to lubricate sewing machines. Not only I oil everything that is metal against metal, I rub some of it on every spot it I consider it needs protection from rust.
I stopped worrying about too much oil when I read on a typewriter repair course from I don't know what decade that after drying in an oven to put it in an oil bath to lubricate and protect metal surfaces. I won't go to those extremes but made me realise that if I put too much oil worst thing it could happen is that the typewriter will need a new cleaning next year.
I'm really surprised that payment processors care at all.
Wow, that sounds horrible. Now I wonder how it is for the rest.
I just looked what white spirit is and just found out it is the same thing I tried to clean the first machine I had, hahahahaha. On my second attempt I got much better results with gasoline, remove everything plastic or rubber just in case.
It can't be too hard using an electric typewriter like the Lettera 36. It could be fun indeed.
We would be reinventing the teletype though.
I use the same oil I use for sewing machines, it is very thin, low viscosity. I apply it using syringe with the bevelled tip of the hypodermic needle cut off.
I put oil everywhere there's metal moving against metal, it doesn't need much, just a thin coat. Too much oil can collect more dust or even drip inside the case.
I think it is impressive, but, who uses this? This is clearly not ready for anything useful. Right now it is just an expensive toy.
