blowfish posted:i don't understand the concept of typing without bottoming out it's utter horseshit as far as I'm concerned. some dumbass must have thought that this is the proper way to type since cherry switches actuate before bottoming out, and then keyboard autists starting parroting that for whatever reason ("I'm a better typist than you" ??). I've never seen anyone give any sort of explanation, and when trying to type that way myself I've found it to be really painful because my wrists tense up so much BUT that being said I recently got a keyboard for work with MX browns and found that often I do sort of naturally end up typing without always bottoming out. my kb at home has MX blues. so idk it's weird whatever type however you fuckin' want I guess

speaking of that new keyboard...it's an iKBC KD87, has really nice laser etched PBT keycaps and now suddenly my quickfire rapid at home kinda feels/looks like poo poo and now I want a new board for home but I'm a little unsure what switches I want now and ohhhh gently caress here I go down the gross geekhack keyboard autism hole

my bitter bi rival posted:what should i buy if i feel this way about the browns i have but like them otherwise? maybe clears, they are basically browns but stiffer, requiring more actuation force. never typed on them myself, though. you ever try blues? you might like their clickyness. get out there and grope some keyboards, I guess.

i got a coolermaster masterkeys s with PBT keys and blue switches for christmas keys seem a good deal stiffer/snappier than my old quickfire rapid with blues. i dunno we'll see if they break in or something. keycaps honestly don't feel quite as nice as the iKBC board i have at work. dunno if i'm surprised, i imagine to get the pricepoint they did coolermaster had to cut a few corners here and there.

Kilometres Davis posted:Pretty new to this and I have two questions as I look for a mech keyboard to use with a small foldback laptop at cafes and the library. this is either a troll or you have sustained a level of autism that is beyond the scope of this thread (check the sh/sc thread or if you really wanna go off the deep end geekhack.org) don't take a goddamn mechanical keyboard with you to the library. or any public place. or anywhere, really.

Salt Fish posted:The concept of "bottoming out" and being a bad typing technique is completely invented by redditors and has no basis. I'm pretty sure that it makes gently caress all difference how hard you press the keys re if you get tendinitis or carpal tunnel. agreed a million percent, anyone who says you "shouldn't" be bottoming out is parroting horseshit they got from reading too much geekhack. i've never seen any good justification for it and even that blurb from kinesis that alicorn posted sounds bullshitty. just loving type and quit sperging out so much about it. duckfarts posted:more like spergonomic also agreed a million percent.

akadajet posted:yeah, if I'm going to be using a keyboard and monitor I want the full desktop experience and not a compromised laptop experience if you're an excel janitor and need a numpad that badly, buy a separate one and put it to the left of your TKL keyboard, thus allowing for correct ergonomics. keyboard centered to your display, and mouse within comfortable reach.

Jenny Agutter posted:have any of you rsi sufferers used a rollermouse? a co-worker of mine swore by it a few people at work have them and i've tried them out very, very briefly. they are surprisingly easy to use for how strange they look. multiple monitor or even ultrawide could be an issue, yeah, it's probably one of those things you're just going to have to experiment with yourself. but drat they're ffffucking expensive, yowza.

Schadenboner posted:Is the iKBC TD108 an goode keyboard? It's like 9x i got a different model iKBC at work and it's good, very solid construction and the PBT keycaps are nice. the position of the indicator LEDs sucks though, they're right between two rows of keys so they aren't really visible at all. my coolermaster board has them in the empty space above the arrow keys, way better visibility there.

agreeing with echi re:PBT but be careful not all pbt keycaps are created equal, I got a cooler master kb a while ago which had PBT keys and they were awful, barely felt like PBT. they ended up getting shiny kind of like abs, just took a little longer to do so
