Re: Future of DT

As such there are better wikis that are popping up to replace Deskthority which also erodes the value of Deskthority. Curious what other wikis you were referring to. Nice site btw! It’s a weird situation and I understand both sides. I thought websites were supposed to be free! :lol: Cherry https://...

Re: Future of DT

I disagree with the posts above based on my experience with ellipse, and I don’t think he has any bad intentions. I trust he wants to keep the site as-is. I think he’s truly passionate about vintage IBM keyboards and I’m glad he’s producing them. I think debating about what his intentions are isn’t...

Re: The mystery of DT's new owner - SOLVED

The problem with selling to the highest bidder is that they will want to recoup some money that they paid for their asset. Depending on how much OneCommerce paid for Deskthority will ultimately decide its fate. If they are looking to recoup their entire cost or close to it then it might just have De...

Relax, there's plenty of interest, and none of them is stupid - they want DT for its vibe and what it is and don't want to ruin that, and know exactly what would break it.
Well, it's ruined congrats....

Re: The mystery of DT's new owner - SOLVED

I have to agree with @jae-3soteric that the site has had a lot less traffic. Now there are even other wikis that do certain brands of keyboards better than Deskthority. However, some information here is still valuable for the community. Keeping Deskthority alive would be just to preserve history and...

Re: Return to office

Back in the 1990s I worked as an IT Consultant for Comcast Cable. They set up all cubicles and offices so that the monitor was forced to face the entrance/door. I guess that way, your manager could walk by at any time, and with quick turn of the head, see what you were up to. It was actually really...

miss me with this "you coulda bought it and you didn't" bs.
It's worse, I gave DT to the community but no one cared to run it.
I think that I put in a reasonable offer however it seemed like other offers were just too enticing apparently for monetary gain.

Do we know how many switch variants these TI boards come with in total?

So far, NeonGreen, Brown, low-height ITW magnetic valve and this one? :o
Not sure but Brown is the most common and these are a needle in a haystack.
