just moved to a keychron k2 from an es-87 and never knew how much my eyes hated me for using an unbacklit keyboard in a dark room only beef with the new one is the lovely usb cable they ship with puts my usb ports in reset loops

cinci zoo sniper posted:did you do your own lego bit? i kind of want to get keychron q1 later this year and assemble something to my own taste, so i wonder what’s their quality like this was fully assembled and ready to use. solid build quality so far, but I'm less than a week in. I built an ergodox from kit a few years back and that satisfied a lifetimes worth of desires to assemble keyboards.

cinci zoo sniper posted:huh, was it that bad? was your kit the one that requires soldering? yeah, it was one of the early early kits. it came as a pair of PCBs, bags of switches and other components, and a bunch of acrylic you stacked into a case.

Smythe posted:I have a Unicomp tkl I bought a unicomp like 10 years ago and was really disappointed with the build quality. despite supposedly coming off the old lexmark line it just felt like a cheap knock-off. burs left over from injection molding, odd coloring, etc have they stepped up their game at all? prices don't look all that far off from just getting older ibm/lexmark hardware off ebay

ew if you're going to go big enough to have a numpad, don't skimp on the extra half inch it takes to have a traditional numpad and arrow keys that 1) aren't cramped and 2) are in alignment with the other bottom two rows

my only beef with keychron is they still haven't provided a way to gently caress with the rgb leds from your host system. i have my laptop keyboard pulse different colors based on various notificaitons/conditions and wish i could do the same on the desktop

Subjunctive posted:you could do this with QMK firmware because it can receive raw HID data from the host and act on it… can you put qmk on any k2? i see https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k2-pro-qmk-via-wireless-mechanical-keyboard?variant=40336733700185 exists, but i have a couple of these guys instead: https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k2-wireless-mechanical-keyboard?variant=31063869751385

we usually did cron jobs with sounds -- hasselhoff songs, klaxons, etc. i think the most evil we got was the random offset cron job that played gsm interference noise

some company let you order cases COD in the late 90s. i ordered the most bitchin lime green case for $50, planning on spending my birthday money on it. it ended up being delivered on a day i was at a camp or some poo poo, so dad rejected the delivery of my new case, not knowing what it was
