first for memes

why is there a reddit key?

first for recycling

are rubber domes welcomed here too?

where do I get this meme again?

only Topres

Just lubed my HHKB but it doen't feel or sound any different.
I hope I didn't use not enough lube.
Also I fucked up a lot of the sliders.

first for glorious SSK

chink land

the keyboard? i got it from amazon and the keycaps from ukkeycaps

Hello /mkg/ britbonger here.

What are my options when it comes to ISO UK layout Topre boards? Am I basically limited to realforce or are there any other alternatives.

Cheers

There are only three topre brands out there. Realforce, Type Heaven, and Leopold. Cooler Master did have topre keyboards, but those were all discontinued

Didn't see new thread so reposting.

Suggestions for leaf babbys first mech keyboard. Looking for blues/brown and tenkeyless form factor. Cheaper stuff if possible too.

Damn, I was hoping there was some other obscure brand I didn't know about.

>tfw have to spend £200+ for a comfy topre board

Feels good, man.
Keyboard is complete.
Waiting is the hardest part.

dafuq is this!

Lemme teach you about these:
>AESTHETICS

>TFW moved from topre to blues and enjoying the extra ergonomics but not the sound

and instead i got a lesson in cringe

finally got my keeb built

plate required extensive modding

Can i have a quick rundown on the Mechanical Keyboard ?
Every one used it in the 90's and suddenly this shit is expensive as fuck ? What happened ? Is it better now, or its still the same tech ?

How much lube should I use on each HHKB case part?
I only used a small amount and I don't notice any different feeling in sound or touch.

Please recommend me a wireless tenkeyless keyboard + mouse combo.

I realize this isn't the most appropriate question, but I don't want to make another useless thread.

hello Daniel (:

ooo nice

hello whoever you are :)

>realize the question isn't relevant to the thread
>posts anyway

what caps exactly and where did you get them?
looks great

pimpmykeyboard.com/dsa-hc-granite/

>ITT
>people obsessing about how caps look, when you shouldn't be looking at them most of the time anyway

I have a Rosewill RK-9000 with Cherry MX Blue Switches, the usb slot is acting up, don't know what to upgrade to. The cherry blue switches are ok, they have a bit of a click, tension is just right, I'm looking for of a slightly more pronounced click response. I'm looking into a Ducky One TKL RGB keyboard, which would fit what I'm looking. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

>The cherry blue switches are ok, they have a bit of a click, tension is just right, I'm looking for of a slightly more pronounced click response
Sounds like you might want Gateron blues or greens

By that logic everyone should live in unblemished white cubes, wear gray jumpsuits and eat Asgaard food pellets.

Inb4 some communist euro sarcastically agrees

Just got one of these Cherry ML suckers. Feels different but I'm always interested to see what I can do. Is it possible to replace these with any existing switches on the market? Really digging the layout here.

> actually having an rds on a pistol

There are chink clones like noppoo and korean ones like AKG

Nope

What you guys think about this one? It's pretty cheap in my country and I was thinking getting one. I want a good keyboard with that size and can't find anything here.

Also, it would be the first time I get a mechanical keyboard

...

>white cubes
that would require paint, jumpsuits are shit, use cloaks instead, also huel is better.

What switches are in those and how much do they cost? The keycaps look awful, but you might be able to change them, not sure.

your now daily reminder to not purchase cables from redditor owned shops

*your now daily reminder to not purchase from redditor owned shops

I was actually considering doing that because it was cheaper, but I guess I'll just go with Pexon. Thanks for the heads up.

THAT IS PEXON YOU KEK

The store website here doesn't specify, but the product site says it's on black, blue, red and brown. I don't know if that's what are you asking.
The price is like $120.

you could just braid some yourself, it is not exactly hard.

>your now daily reminder to not purchase cables from redditor owned shops
Did you tell them you're from 4Chins? What did you think, they'd relate to you somehow for using an image board?

$120 for that shit. Where are you located?

Chile. The dollar price it's too high right now.

That's really expensive, even if those are Cherry switches. I'd try to import something from China, because there are lots of cheaper options with better switches.

no i just said the cable didn't work and the wiring tore through the paracord

Ok, I will consider it. Thanks for the advice.

...

look at this meme

At least his design got a bit more interesting

Anyone else underwhelmed by topres? I didn't think it was a big improvement over blues.

Take it easy on me, am grill :^[

hey i'm a boy, want to date?

Tomoko

russian makes sense for something like this, far moreso than jap. Noone actually types japanese directly like that but it is how you type cyrillic.

Where can I get an SA jukebox set. I'd kill people for it.

you wait for the next group buy and then you wait a year

A layout with numpad that fits in a standard 60% case.

Pretty sexy.

wouldn't we all love to live in that world

Normies>Autists

I thought girls were into this equality meme

get the fuck off my board

Why can't I find a waifu like you? I can picture it now... spending time together with an adorable QT that holds the same love for tinkering, collecting, and learning tech... have a nice big house to walk around naked in, become sexual deviants and have anal sex 3 times a day. Blowjobs under the desk when installing gentoo etc.

Fuck. This will never happen.

Life is not worth living.

I love all of your pictures. Something about that diy aesthetic is just really comfy. What kind of music do you listen to?

HHKB with GMK Carbon works pretty well.

>HHKB
how do you fit mx caps on a topre?

what are the keycaps on pink one on the left?

...

...

Either you take Novatouch sliders or you got the 3D printed ones from before the Novatouch was a thing.

...

no

...

nice quads. Also that's not 60%

Should I get a Pok3r or should I wait for the WhiteFox to drop again?

is this real

Actually, it is. 60% is 15u x 5u.

you're embarrassing

nope there is one extra column

What are you talking about? ( ` to = ) is 13u long, and (backspace) is 2u long. There are 15 columns and 5 rows.

What are these called?
