I keep forgetting that I hate keyboards

this makes it a bit of a problem given that's like 1/3rd of everything I do

@foone Does the ANY key send "interface{}"?

okay I finally found some keycaps (and then borrowed some more from another set) so I can use my main keyboard.

I don't really like these keycaps (for their feel, mainly) but at least they're labeled, mostly.

@foone I'm getting big Baltimore Orioles energy, both from the main color scheme and the Panic button.

It's supposed to look more like this.

@foone I like that the calculator key is basically the NASA meatball.

@foone this looks remarkably like a keyboard back in the late 90s. It's a super cheap keyboard loaded with "Alps Monterey" switches. It also has a big-ass enter key.
I still have it in storage.

@foone This suddenly gives me an idea of a keyboard with a "KILL" key that, on Linux, sends SIGTERM to the focused application, or SIGKILL if augmented with Shift.

@foone I can sympathize. I got a new keycap set about a month ago. Looked beautiful. I absolutely could NOT type with it, presumably because the corners were too rounded. I didn't want to, but ended up going back to the keyboard's stock set after trying to make it work for a few weeks.

@foone YMDK Carbon? I got some of those in a different colour. Love the look and the font but you’re right, they feel rough.

@foone yes, but how do you feel about the Felix?

(Man it’s hard to find any information on this that isn’t from my ~30 year old memories of being friends with the inventor’s son when we were kids in Berkeley.)

@joshourisman oh I've got one of those somewhere.

it's... weird. I'm not a huge fan

@foone that was more or less my impression of it c. 1995 (it was somewhere between ‘92 and ‘96 🤷‍♂️)
