Must be the original chiclet!

Would still be cool if you could post it here and maybe link the vid for others to find!

Aren't shadows important to understand geometry?

How much should I ask for a top condition almost not used alpha grip?

Learning a steno keyboard would be pretty damn cool. I wonder if it would be at all usable for chatting and forum posts.

4) 3278 APL 87 Key. This one is very special to me.

Damn, those APL boards are so sexy.

MX has those annoying staggered pins (differently distanced from the switch centre) while M84 is more like Alps and has them in a sensible straight line: http://deskthority.net/w/images/4/43/Cherry_M84A-0100_--_assorted.jpg http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cherry_M8#M84A-0100 And the magic of my M84 pro...

Many vim users remap caps lock to ctrl and use ctrl+] for esc

Depends on where you are. Model Fs are annoyingly hard to get in Europe.

Pretty lame since it uses the domes of a salvaged keyboard but still...

The world needs more MagSafe connectors.

Great, now how am I to reproduce that. X)

Get me one and I'll take as many pictures as you like.

No more typing lag - it local echoes characters underlined immediately when you type them, and the underscores disappear as it arrives at the server.

That seems dangerous.

We should probably share not-so-obvious things.
So: fdupes is hands down the best tool for finding duplicate files. There are tons of programs but not one other works reliably. I know this because I recently cleaned up some old drives with this.

vim, emacs
oh yeah bitches :p

I think a local copy would be nice. Anybody want to google for legal shizzle? :p

I think the Satin Fossil color is an exceptionally tasteful choice. Can you perhaps post a link to the exact paint that you used? http://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/painters-touch-ultra-cover-2x/satin If you click on the color square on the end of the second-to-last row, it wi...

Just add it, it's a wiki.

I kind of like the idea. Having stuff on my lap seems to be a pretty ergonomic height. I do it with my Kinesis all the time.

Any news about your endeavors, matt3o?

I completely failed with installing Gentoo at the very beginning: the bootloader. Just use Ubuntu. The general feeling is like Win98 or thereabouts. Meaning it has it's problems and can get messy but you generally get a lot done with very little effort. I have used Gentoo for years but switched to ...

I'm a pretty huge fan of ManicTime, AHK (for neo) and the snipping tool.

So are you using vim or emacs?

I think one of those modern Apple keyboards fits your description quite nicely. Also, in this price range it is probably worth trying some at best buy. You might just find something you like. I still do most of my actual work on a no-profile rubber dome at work. You can also find cheap cherry boards...

Always thought somebody should try to pull this off in a keyboard. Then again maybe that's exactly what the solenoids in the old beam springs were trying to do.

Hm...am I reading this wrong or does the article imply that the bottom row is supposed to be the home row on the Blickensderfer?
