I'm getting really inclined to get myself this, Vortex Core



my partner is getting mad at me saying that I am trying really hard to find worst keyboard possible

that looks kind of fun and stupid but not $89 fun and stupid. also not wireless, that's dumb.

and you can go gently caress yourself if you plan to use that as your regular keyboard

I want extra small keyboard for work, it's mostly copy paste and inserting names/numbers so small 60% is actually ideal

side note: today I went to office for temporary office keyboard so I won't need to keep laptop lid half open, its so goddamn filthy that I have to press some of the keys harder than others, also it's full size so I don't have enough space for mouse movement, 60% is a must, I'll rather pass that extra small one

It was free, but it made me spend my saving money for this month on a brand new keyboard, I had to wash my hands after using this thing, this is how disgusting it was

standing desks are bullshit anyways. if you actually can work more than 2 hours a day standing up you're either loving around on zooms, a psychopath, or both

standing desk was such a game changer for me. i am about 50/50 sit stand and my wrists feel a lot better on a desk that is the right height

i bought it end of April and will probably continue to favor wfh because my work desk is terrible now in comparison

as it related to keyboardchat i'd like to get a TKL but the keyboard cultists are just as bad as the sneakerheads with these drops and everyone buying poo poo up and jacking the price up. i need my 6-key home block and inverted T for workflow

thought about soldering one together from a PCB but i don't know much about how to do it properly

I am real tired of the preorders and drops and group buys too. If you’re looking for a TKL you have plenty of prebuilt options though, check out WASD keyboards for instance

I got a random 3lb box of dcs keycaps yeaterday. sorted out all the different sizes, and now just left with a bunch of the normal size and need to sort out the different rows. some rows are easy to tell apart but, gosh darnit, some are pretty hard

having used the griffin powermate for a few years now, it’s really nice (excellent knobfeel) but occasionally I have to restart the app because it stops working. would be nice if it just worked as a standard keyboard input.

Also, on that - I tried silentmodding my vm01 and accidentally unsocketed the stab on my enter key.
Taped it down and honestly enjoying enter being silent and not clinky. The stiffness of the key itself didn't change. Is it worth doing for the rest of my keyboard or it's going to be a big regret in the future?
Spacebar metallic noise is killing me tbh even after bandaid mod.

Dell KB216-B QuietKey but it is a membrane one, probably the best one you can get in that price range
