That is cute, but I'd rather buy something from an obscure grimoire ;)

Btw, what is the status of the gb, and the bsd keys?

You can setup the left diamond key to be FN as well, but yes.

Re: deskthority.org unreachable!

Pictures of copyrighted keyboards, bootleg switches and springs, keyboard mods ..

And negative reviews! With pipa the threshold for making false claims about whatever will be lower, because claiming a site has pictures of molested children is a big step.

Thank you 7bit. I didn't get hyper to work properly in Stumpwm (I think I got it to work with xmodmap yesterday though ...), but Emacs got it. I have to add support for compose in st (the terminal emulator I use. It worked fine in xterm).

Coolio, thank you! With my symmetric stagger layout it doesn't really matter. I put some less used macros there. At least it's symmetric - the second most switch to the side is dead. And man it's awkward to type on a regular board now after symmetry all day! Looks like I have to clean one more for u...

I got the keyboards from 7bit! However Changeme doesn't recognise the keyboard properly. It's a TMC-KMCV-C15-112 USB with 122 keys, but is recognised as a TM-KMQ-128A (120 keys). Two keys are missing, and I can't get to them! The two switches under the 'caps lock' to the left of 'A', and the two swi...

You have to export it in ~/.bashrc or ~/.bach_profile or ~/.profile or something :quack: It could be that you have to update some cache as well!

But you can make your own HHKB style with extra hammers and a new controller. That's what I meant.

The originals were also single. They're all interchangable, except that you can't put the outer cap of a double piece on top of a single piece. Obviously.

Buckling springs are much nicer than Cherry blues! Blue MX are scratchy - buckling springs are smooth like well oiled machinery! That is opinion.

No, they are not similar at all :) MY don't have any friction, but they don't have any definition either.

Not anymore than with black or red MX, but where they have a crisp and clear downstroke, MY is indeed akin to prodding a dead octopus or a wet newspaper..
