Comment on Need to clean my keyboard
BiscuityCat@lemmy.world 2 days agoI have the keyboard plugged into a monitor and accessing the USB hub is seriously complicated, so that’s not really an option for me.
But I could try locking the system. I just hope I won’t lock myself out for few hours, because I have pressed Enter multiple times while cleaning it.

Why not just write a script that would brick your PC so there is no risk anything would go wrong cleaning, and then just reinstall your OS when you’re done?

You can use a pair of scissors to terminate the connection anywhere along the wire and it will achieve the same thing
