I cannot believe I am actuall using my 40% #keyboard at work...
@ckeen I just looked up 40% keyboards.
Wow.
I lived through the 1980s when there were tiny keyboards on computers with strange layouts. I'm not sure I want to go back to that. 😁
@craigmaloney it is this one, although with different caps now. #keyboard https://mastodon.social/media/JKJeEiiM-i-50GOavvA
@ckeen @craigmaloney I need to build one of these soon.
I have a layout already (been using daily on my iPhone to get comfortable with it since last July) and half the parts...
@crc @craigmaloney Are you going to handwire it or use a PCB?
@ckeen @craigmaloney I'm planning to handwire
@ckeen @crc @craigmaloney I'll stick with my Das Keyboard for now, thanks. ;)
Although, for the Kestrel computer project, it might be fun to have a customized keyboard some day. Say, something with a layout similar to (but better than) a TI-99/4A.
@ckeen @crc @craigmaloney I won't, I promise!
BUT, that said, this looks like a nice keyboard. https://68keys.io/ Very close to what I had envisioned.
@vertigo @crc @craigmaloney A didn't know about that one, it is similar to https://clueboard.co/ though which I like (haven't build one yet)
@vertigo @crc @craigmaloney That's a perfectly fine keyboard! Don't get distracted :)
