They are still flowers though. It's probably not entirely wrong to think of them as related to other flowers, I didn't know anything about them until I took the picture.

They are not photosynthesizing plants, they are parasites of fungi! Pretty cool looking in person, almost translucent. One of my hikes this year had a bunch of clumps of these on the trail.

I thought these where ghost pipes:

Needs more Neo Geo Pocket Color

Holy crap, that cosplay sure is a thing.

Go ahead and add the Midwest to that too.

It's because GM has deep pockets and doesn't want to pay one of their competitors a licensing fee to stay competitive.

At work I use a planck paired with a numpad. It's perfect for me, but it was definitely a learning experience. Probably 2 weeks or so to get used to it. Most people would probably like a preonic more, the number row is a must for gaming and it makes learning quicker.

Olkb.com can probably answer most questions you have. They where one of the first to bring ortholinear keyboards to the market. Planck and Preonic are models they make. Preonic has a number row, planck doesn't. MNT is a company making open and hackable devices like laptops, they aren't making devices for the masses, instead trying to make something that is longer lasting and repairable. Their 'pocket' model has an ortholinear keyboard built in, and I just think that's neat.

I have a planck at work and a preonic at home. It takes some time to get used to but now that I have switched I will never go back. I might try something split like a corne next but I'm kind of waiting for something that matches my olkb boards a bit better. Ortholinear would be the new standard if I had my way. I'm also eyeing that MNT Reform pocket pretty hard for that awesome keyboard but I really want them to release a tactile switch option for it.

My hands are pretty medium sized, and I think it's the most comfortable portable device I have ever had in my hands. It is however a bit heavy. It's also not a pocket device like the Gameboy was, although most DS are not very pocketable either.
