Not sure if I could deal with the ESC location

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Right Ctrl, Alt and a good bunch of other keys missing/moved, print screen/home/PgUp/PgDn/backslash/underscore totally shuffled/(re)moved, even the arrow buttons are a bit weird - any gamer and/or techie would easily throw up on this. The colours are rad, though, and I totally dig the mini aquarium mouse design.

It's the arrow keys that are weirding me out

Drink the Crayola mouse water

I had looked up this keyboard the last time I saw this picture posted and was surprised to find it was actually mechanical and not a shitty membrane keyboard.

[-] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 9 points 11 months ago

Ortho as well, this is probably a holy grail in some mech keyboard circles.

I like the ortholinear layout

[-] Masamune@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I really hope Comic Sans is somehow hardcoded into the keyboard so it can only output in that font face for all eternity.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

That escalated quickly.

Ngl that green gives me eye cancer but the general idea of having something other than a black, gray etc. monochromatic keyboard is cool

[-] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 11 months ago

You should do a search either here or on a search engine of your choice for "mechanical keyboards".

Alternatively, if you're prone to impulsive spending behavior, don't.

Why does it feel like I've used a similar keyboard to this in my childhood at school but I have no memory of using one

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Because the comic sans and the color layout makes it look like something you'd give children. Adults usually get marketed simpler color schemes and the internet unanimously decided comic sans was a faux pas.

[-] eldoom@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

I think the computers that McDonald's had in their playgrounds in the 90s had some very similar keyboards. I might be mistaken though.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

Damn, you had a fancy McDonald's. I was just happy when we went to the one next town over that had an N64.

[-] x4740N@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

I was born after the 90s in the early 2000's

[-] guyrocket@kbin.social 0 points 11 months ago

Is that comic sans?!?

Hard No for me. I think my eyes are bleeding now.

[-] Blamemeta@lemm.ee -2 points 11 months ago

Put some cherry reds on it, Id buy it in a heart beat.
