this would be fuckin badass on some kind of old school terminal. i am imaging in your large backyard, under some cover, you have a board like this that runs a mp3 playing thing but the thing is on an old terminal. i would be old shcool and badass as gently caress.

ditching arrow keys is stupid as gently caress but using a function modifier key to do F keys is entirely sensible and reasonable . maybe even shift-function 1 or 2 to do f11 or f12

after a week of blues I can unequivocally say they are the best and the loudness isn't an issue at all. this board is definitely going to be my daily driver and the one I'm gonna put stupid expensive DSA caps on #autism #bling

might sell code with clears when I get backlit keys for it OR take it into work coz it's a brilliant dispensary board but it's also nerdy as god drat gently caress to do so

the arrow keys are really the only thing i miss on my HHKB but i've gotten good at using my pinky to use fn keys quickly so it's becoming moot
