They're wrecked. Get some pliers and carefully remove the bases (beware of shards of sharp whatever). Wrap the glass in a tough plastic bag and toss them out.
You could resolder them, but they're incandescents, just take the opportunity to put energy saving bulbs in.
obvious but make sure no current is running to the light before you do this
And destroy the home of hundreds of innocent bacteria?
...and of course, as always, Kill Hitler.

hello chat I had very good pizza at a place called Pi last night and then drank many a beer and then I got to sleep in woohah. But now I am back in the office. Less woohah.
But it's OK since my silly ass is going line dancing down in Virginia tonight which will be all sorts of unfortunate for everyone who has to witness it I'm sure!

If things are wired correctly, doing that just means turning off the wall switch. If the condo is wired incorrectly then you have to switch off the breaker.
If you don't have a meter I suggest the breaker.

in other news the laser pointers I ordered are so fucking strong they seriously hurt to look at (slight hangover modifier not withstanding).
but my boss is very pleased with them so yay I guess. some poor sucker is probably going to end up with fried retinas given the way some of my clients swing these things around I swear to god.

The old advice to put it in the dishwasher works if you wanna disassble the whole thing and take the pcbs and screws out. Otherwise it's a roll of the dice if the dishwasher wrecks it. Far safer is the following:
If that's a very regular membrane keyboard with press-on caps, and it looks like one, find something thin and rigid and pry up the keys one by one. They'll pop off pretty easily and reinstall by just pressing down.
Take 'em all off and bring them to the sink and let them soak in water with dish soap, then kinda gently scrub each like you're doing dishes, drain, rinse with fresh water to get rid of soap, leave to dry. Don't scrub too hard or with anything too abrasive because you can easily take the key labels right off.
For the rest of the keyboard, tip it upside down over the trash and shake, wipe it with a damp cloth, maybe find some cotton swabs to get in the crevices.
Reassemble when everything is dry.

nah like the projected dot is just so damn bright. haven't managed to light anything on fire with them yet though.
not that I've tried. of course not. that would be dangerous and irresponsible.

Going to Puerto Rico to bum around for a week.
Sit on beach, walk around San Juan, see some bioluminescent algae. All that good stuff.
And my wife doesn't know it, but I bought first-class tickets! If you're ever gonna blow the money on those the honeymoon is the time.
@Aioua we went to San Juan for our Honeymoon. It was awesome.
Where are you staying? Other than the bioluminescent bay what are you doing? You good at kayaking? If you and the wife can practice beforehand I'd recommend it. It is double kayak and nothing tests your marriage like blowing out to sea. A storm was out at sea and you have to cross an open bay to get to the mangrove river. It was blowing so hard at the bay we realized if we didn't really pick it up we were going to have a meeting with the coast guard. 😂
Both the Old San Juan forts are extremely cool and cheap. Part of the national park service.
and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them
but they're listening to every word I say

This has a fair chance of ruining the keyboard by creating a sticky dirt slurry under the key caps that flows somewhere important
Why does South Carolina hate Ohio?
How else do you keeps yours fresh?
Check out my site, the Bismuth Heart | My Twitter
that may be nebraska but either way i imagine small sample size
I think the Nebraska one is Iowa, which makes sense.
All of these make sense except the S. Carolina one. But they’re an odd bunch.
are any SC schools in the Big Ten now? everyone hates Ohio State
Also, everyone in NE hates Mass. It’s NY/CT/PA that hates NJ. Which is true.
I don’t think there are any in the Big 10 but the Ohio State hate from college fans in general makes sense.
