I got a real old collectable keyboard of ebay which turns out not to work with anything invented after 1999 (one of you goons is going to get it for yosmas lol) but now Ive got the new keyboard bug.

Does anyone have any opinions on the the Vortex Core, or other 40% keyboards in general? I'm really tempted to get one but a bit worried that such a minimalist keyboards will actually be a bad idea even tho I mostly write prose.

seriously think browns are too soft.

I glide my fingers over the keys it seems. with browns I make too many typos

clears on the other hand are amazing. same switch but harder

The topre happy hacking keyboard has poo poo ergonomics but it's still one of my favorite keyboard designs. If it had a control key I would buy another one. At the end of the day any keyboard not useful for video games might as well be an Advantage.

Here is my work keyboard where I get all my real work done



Kailh Copper switches (similar to Cherry Browns but actuate after a shorter distance) with some PBT keycaps from aliexpress, and some tablet stands for the tenting.

I use a layout based on this one but qwerty rather than colemak: https://configure.ergodox-ez.com/layouts/Malb/latest/0

As the session was drawing to an end and the participants where preparing for the group picture, I saw Stallman trying to put back his shoes on. I noticed that it seemed difficult for him to do that so I asked, “Richard, do you need help?”. And he said, yes and mumbled something about pain on his shoulders if he stretched his arms towards his feet.

And so there I was, at the right place and right time, to help Richard Stallman put back his shoes on. I’m sure this is a non-significant event in the overall chain of events in the IT world. But I can say to myself, I have paid back a little bit to the founder of FSF. If not for his work, the Internet might be a different thing and I may be somewhere else.
