A poem dedicated to Model Fs....generated by Chat GPT

[kmnov2017]

The Model F, a vintage gem,
A keyboard from a bygone era, when
Technology was built to last,
With sturdy keys, and a satisfying cast.

With its mechanical switches, it sings,
A symphony of clicks and clacks, like the strings
Of a grand piano, with each keystroke
It tells a story, of a time long ago.

With its classic layout, and iconic design,
The Model F is a true treasure, one of a kind.
A symbol of an era, when things were built to last,
A reminder of a time, that forever will cast.

So let us raise a glass, to the Model F,
A true classic, that will always be.
A symbol of a time, when technology was pure,
A vintage keyboard, forever allure.

Deskthority, a community strong,
A place for keyboard enthusiasts to belong.
Where stories of switches and keycaps are shared,
And the love for all things keyboard is declared.

With its wealth of knowledge and friendly chat,
Deskthority is a place where enthusiasts can simply relax.
Where the latest news and reviews are discussed,
And the hunt for the perfect keyboard is never hushed.

From vintage finds to the latest trends,
Deskthority has it all, and the community extends
A helping hand, to those just starting out,
To join the ranks, and learn what it's all about.

So let us raise a glass, to Deskthority,
A community of keyboard enthusiasts, you and me.
May our love for all things keyboard never cease,
And may Deskthority continue to bring us peace...

It was one of countless similar songs published for the benefit of the proles by a sub-section of the Music Department. The words of these songs were composed without any human intervention whatever on an instrument known as a versificator.

In the realm of keys, where clicks create a song,
There lies a collector, with a passion strong.
Webwit of Deskthority, a maestro of keys,
His keyboard collection, a symphony that appease.

Mechanical wonders, in a chorus they stand,
Each key a melody, crafted by hand.
From vintage classics to modern delights,
Webwit's collection spans the keyboard heights.

A clack here, a thock there, a tactile embrace,
Every switch tells a story, a unique grace.
Clickity-clack, the sound of a journey's start,
As fingers dance, creating works of art.

QWERTY and beyond, layouts diverse,
In Webwit's hands, each board is a universe.
Ergodox, HHKB, and boards bespoke,
A typist's haven, where dreams provoke.

Keycaps in hues, a vibrant kaleidoscope,
Each stroke of color, a canvas of hope.
SA, DSA, and Cherry profile,
Webwit's collection, a keycap stockpile.

From Alps to MX, a switch for every hand,
In his collection, diversity is grand.
Buckling springs and linear delights,
Webwit's keyboards, a tactile paradise.

Vintage terminals, relics of the past,
In Webwit's hands, their legacy will last.
A journey through time, with keys as the guide,
His collection, a history, none can hide.

So here's to Webwit, the curator of keys,
Whose collection echoes with typing expertise.
In the world of keyboards, a legend is he,
With each stroke, his collection sets keys free.

Nice poem, webwit, but I do miss something.
Could you ask ChatGPT to adapt it (not make a new one!) to somehow acknowledge your "Wild Duck" title?

In the realm of forums where keyboards abound,
A tale unfolds, with a business sound.
Webwit, the steward of Deskthority's domain,
Decided to embark on a new terrain.

With passion and keystrokes, a community grew,
But change was on the horizon, a different view.
OneCommerce emerged, a venture to explore,
The sale of Deskthority, a shift to adore.

A transaction of forums, a digital trade,
Webwit's creation in new hands laid.
OneCommerce, the custodian in the scene,
To uphold the legacy where keys convene.

The keys that once clicked in Deskthority's space,
Now carried forward with grace.
In the hands of a new captain, a fresh embark,
A continuation of the keyboard spark.

The community thrives, a legacy sustained,
As OneCommerce's vision is unchained.
For every keycap, switch, and typing lore,
Deskthority lives on, forevermore.

Webwit's sale, a chapter's close,
But the story of keyboards forever grows.
In the hands of OneCommerce, the torch is passed,
A tale of keys, destined to forever last.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many an artificial and odd volume of intelligent lore...

Quoth the chatbot, "Nevermore."
