every time i want to clock in or out of work i hurriedly type "tim" into the address bar and press enter, not remembering it always takes me to timtyler.org, not timecon.whatever

i need to stop browsing for nice keyboards/keycap sets, because loving NO-ONE is selling normal ones, just ANSI or, in extremely rare cases, UK ISO.

really slamming on a big vertical enter key is like the best feeling in computing
you ANSIs don't know what you're missing out on

ANSI is short for A Nicer Standard is ISO

hello again "jerks"

so i work for the government and have to use a windows computer with no admin privs. the antimalware blocks the keychron and nuphy boards' USB input because ~security~ as they have onboard storage or something. wireless works but it still triggers the nag screen and logs it.

i'm trying to find a kb without onboard storage/usb hub features that won't trigger some IT person to yell at me.

i want ~65% / 75 keys. slim to win
wired
brown or red switches
don't care about gamer LEDs
cute colorful caps a plus

any recommendations?

btw i'm selling that nuphy kb right here!!

why not just not have a keyboard at all? the fact that you want a ~65% keyboard quite plainly shows you don't use it for anything useful anyway.

I took apart the Osborne keyboard I got a while back, for cleaning. I was curious to see what the gently caress it used for key switches since it felt like a rubber dome keyboard but it also felt really nice to type on.

Turns out... NMB (the manufacturer) just made really nice rubber dome keyboards :shrug: https://deskthority.net/wiki/NMB_dome_with_slider

e: It's this, only with a standard lay-out, the full alphabet, and the Osborne badge:

If it did USB I'd be typing on it right now.

ee: Why does that video exist? Is it hand fetish porn?

not saying much; that keyboard sounds about as creamy as a pair of scissors

How are the LEDs lit up?

When current passes through them, electrons in the semiconductors recombine with electron holes, releasing energy in the form of photons.
