Re: iPad software keyboard: How to get ANSI left shift key?
"Custom" third-party keyboards are a thing on iOS. I've only lightly dabbled with them on iPhone. Maybe there's something with a better layout for you out there, or ideally: a configurable keyboard you can design your own layouts for. Imagine! If I were a real developer I'd probably make my own thir...

Re: Mechanical Garage
Great minds, eh? ;) As soon as he showed me the lack of space inside the box, I knew this was the perfect job for MX. I let him choose between linear and clicky switches. MX Green it was. Reassuringly clicky. Their audible feedback comes a half second or so before the motor kicks in, removing much o...

Mechanical Garage
So, I've been busy lately. One small project was helping out my brother with a control panel for his garage. He's got an electric door opener but the remotes are fiddly and the motor itself is positioned right above the car so it's hard to reach. Besides, when closing it in windy conditions, the dam...

Re: Topre 39-AA-0101
And thank you for making it happen. In the end, it was irresistible.
I’ve ordered a good bit of coloured mods coverage, so I’ve done my bit. Looking forward to getting my paws on these.

Looks like the pre-orders are live now, and with more interesting colour ways than I feared. Phew! I might just go in for a Minicom kit. I’ve only got the one black Topre after all.

My comment was about the state of DT's server, rather than your contribution. Editing the Wiki at all at the moment strikes me as perilous, the way the site goes down in the middle of simply writing posts and PMs. Deleting images in particular when the back-end is like this strikes me as eerily like...

Re: Future of DT
OneCommerce overpaid badly. And as many have said: DT’s value has only gotten worse on their watch. At least they’re willing to take the hit, though. Much better to let it go than languish.

Unevenly yellowed, too. Shame. A third of that price and I’d consider it. ;) I’ve heard Omron switches can be “restored” by simply pressing them over and over until they come back to life a bit. They are notorious for their unreliability, but when they go bad it’s not quite as badly so as Alps. And ...

DT decided to restrict permissions to receive private messages for newly joined members. False. I'm a DT mod, and there is no such permission control in our interface.

Re: Future of DT
It's not intended as a wiki, nor a repository of stories. Most of the keyboards there don't have much of a story, but they are interesting to Cherry collectors nonetheless. Hell, even if they did all have stories - it's no small task to write 900+ stories. It is meant specifically to display unique...
