So is a Can of Piero Manzoni Shit - http://livehopething.blogspot.de/2015/0 ... 00000.html. But would you really want to type with it? Anything can be worth something but those key-caps which are ugly as crap fits in with the crass and useless categories. Would never pollute any of my keyboards with this junk.purdobol wrote: ↑Not to mention it's worth some serious dough so typing on it must feel like heaven.
Only at the naivety and stupidity of younger humans that still don't know what good taste is. Maybe they will mature at the later end of their lives but who knows. Bad taste seems to envelope some people more than others.purdobol wrote: ↑Jelly much?

At least the caps are reusable on modern topre boards, also isnt that ulgy at least imoBig Bricced wrote: ↑this thing http://xahlee.info/kbd/i/Sony_BKE-2011_ ... _86333.jpg
That is fine imo, HMI's kinda live in their own space. Colour grouping like that is very useful for operators. If its practical it has a beauty of its own.Big Bricced wrote: ↑this thing http://xahlee.info/kbd/i/Sony_BKE-2011_ ... _86333.jpg
I wouldn't call it a generational conflict at all. I know plenty of people in this hobby younger than 30 who can't stand "keebs", artisans, etc. I'd describe it much more as a matter of taste, as I don't think a keyboard with 30 artisans on it is good taste. I like practicality and that's exactly what (most of) my keyboards are.purdobol wrote: ↑Nothing new. Same old generational conflict as always. Old geezers look for practical, while youngsters experiment with new ideas gathering knowledge and having fun in the process. Icronically one can get the impression of wanting to "fit in" from the other side too. The elite club with impeccable sense of style. Which isn't excactly mature. But hey this is the case in every hobby.
Audio enthusiast buying cables for thousand of dollars, and hearing the difference.
Radio amateurs bitching about SDR, that it's nothing more than cheap toys, while praising the newest product costing 2k based on same technology.
Don't have to mention people buying blue alps or beamers for ridiculous prices am I?
In other words, no matter where you look. You can always find young and naive, and adult "boys".
One is more embarassing than the other to be honest.
a lot of younger people are looking for some kind of status to fit in, which may lead them to forcing themselves to enjoy something they don't because their friends or people online say its good, which is honestly pretty sadLaser wrote: ↑I wish you were right, but I very much doubt that they "experiment" and "have fun in the process". It's rather more like just copying what is deemed as "cool" by commercials and colleagues who already brainwashed themselves, in order to integrate, to fit amongst the others. If you want to see experiments, hop to the "workshop" subforum.
Sure I understand that. The thing is. I don't see the picture painted here (by some) of young people flooding their boards with artisans. Quite the opposite really. The common theme seems to be 60% with minimal case design. Bright colours and mandatory rgb lighting. And comparing keebs to shoes apparently... browsing reddit right nowBlaise170 wrote: ↑ I'd describe it much more as a matter of taste, as I don't think a keyboard with 30 artisans on it is good taste.

Any info on that 1st onejust_add_coffee wrote: ↑You guys will probably hate this ...
Probably not a lot of love from you all for this either ...
... or this (same keyboard, different plates and keyset) ...
A lot of you all will probably start yelling for a Downvote button here ...
And someone is going to lose their mind over this ...

Are those nixie light indicators holy fk...
AMEN!digital_matthew wrote: ↑Vacuum tubes on anything equals totally awesome looking.
Honestly it's not that bad. I wouldn't like the giant lights on it myself but at least it has a consistent theme (e.g. steampunk).just_add_coffee wrote: ↑You guys will probably hate this ...
Again it's not that bad. I actually kind of like it.just_add_coffee wrote: ↑Probably not a lot of love from you all for this either ...
Terrible choice of color scheme (orange, cyan, and red do not match) but otherwise not that bad.just_add_coffee wrote: ↑... or this (same keyboard, different plates and keyset) ...
I don't understand backlighting with non-backlit caps, but okay.just_add_coffee wrote: ↑A lot of you all will probably start yelling for a Downvote button here ...
I find it of poor taste but at least the colors match and the paint was done well.
Wow I actually use those keycaps on my HHKB, i think they are awesomeBig Bricced wrote: ↑this thing http://xahlee.info/kbd/i/Sony_BKE-2011_ ... _86333.jpg
Do you still have the caps?just_add_coffee wrote: ↑[…] Here's what it looked like at the beginning ...
[…]
It looks like someone forgot to tear off the protective plastic sheets before assembling the keyboard ...just_add_coffee wrote: ↑You guys will probably hate this ...
I have 'em. Still using the Spacebar. But if you want them, they're yours for the cost of shipping.kbdfr wrote: ↑ Do you still have the caps?
At least they could be given a decent final resting
You're right, though the top plate is more pinkish in real life than it photographs. Probably not much of an improvement to you however.Blaise170 wrote: ↑ Terrible choice of color scheme (orange, cyan, and red do not match) but otherwise not that bad.
No. It was an experiment in vinyl wrapping keys.fohat wrote: ↑Was that a metal space bar on that blue Model M?
