Totally on board with optimizing your environment.

I'm not sure how you're fucking up your keyboard, but on a sustainability note, if it's only a matter of rubbing the letters off, have you considered buying stickers instead of whole keyboards? Cheers.

If only. I actually destroy the keys. It starts slowly, with a key being a little "off" and requiring precision when I hit it, meaning I'm able to hit it wrong (and not register the keystroke), and I can limp along like that for a while even if it is kind of annoying. Then the key starts coming off, and I can sometimes push it back into place and get it to click back where it belongs. Eventually the key will come off and I have to replace the little spring beneath it ... which is where I run into problems because you have to be a jeweler with a jeweler's steady hands to make it work. It's a downright abusive relationship.
