I feel like a terrible dirty hipster. I can't believe I'm actually writing a post about cassettes. I have maybe two or three crates at most, which is way too many dirty, cracked, and gross cases.

Depending on what you use with your PC, a mechanical keyboard could help you type more quickly and more accurately
