Most keyboards get really gross after a while and are hardly ever cleaned. I’d go for the monitor.
Comment on Can I lick it? Yes you can.

A quick question, should the software engineer lick the monitor screen or the keyboard?
I… uh… am asking for a friend who is a software engineer.
I am a butterfly instructor.

This is why they never get cleaned, you gotta start somewhere. Lick the keyboard!

Apple could have avoided an entire lawsuit for their butterfly keyboards, if their users did this one thing. SMH.

The butterflies. Someone needs to see if they taste of butter.

I have eaten fried moth. Tasted much like almond
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 7 months ago
They taste more like flies and less like butter.

Licking is for mouses and touch-pads.
Use the onLick() event.

Isn’t there a game where if you put ketchup on the disc it does something to make it easier to speedrun? So licking might be too unreasonable
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Thanks for sharing the insight. Apparently, it was a speed run hack on Xbox for an old SpongeBob game.
So, there’s some precedent set in the field of computer peripheral licking to improve results.

the motherboard. how else can you tell that it is working?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Given most software engineers develop in a cloud environment, I would… I mean my friend would have to shove their head into a server rack that is consuming high amounts of wattage. My friend would then have to try reaching for the motherboard by extending their tongue.
The only problem I see here is travelling to the data centre which are often in different countries or continents. I am not sure if their employer would cover that expense.

ssh into the server and lick your desktop’s motherboard

Gives a whole new meaning to SSH tunnelling.

Also, I don’t know if Amazon will let my friend in a similar situation into their data centers to lick the AWS motherboards.

AMZN can charge extra as part of their AWS plan to allow enhanced debugging.
