yeey, finally got myself XDA keycaps! "3" is a bit blurry and some prints are off-centered, but I'm fine with it (after all, those are sub-dyed, not double shot). and there's bunch of extra keys which's awesooome. having 5 shifts is so funny to me for some reason.
note: I still have hhkb imitation remaps, but I decided to fill (almost) all switches with a cap, so that it looks a bit more normal, but I still play around with those extra keys. 

also read The primitive tortureboard. I was already aware of these myths, but I didn’t know the story behind the Dvorak layout. doubt I'll change my layout though, despite the temptation. I just don't want to get lost on a computer if I'm not in my "perfectly crafter rice with most optimised layout and everything"™
on the other hand, I don't get on someone else's computer that often...

Il y a eu pas mal de remarques à propos des #keycaps du #QMx2040. En effet, on ne propose que des keycaps vierges, soit noir et blanc (#PunkTuxedo) soit en couleurs pour le fun et l’apprentissage (#NyanQuack). C’est un choix assumé de notre part.

• On préfère réserver le QMx aux personnes qui savent taper en dactylo, ou qui souhaitent apprendre.
• Avoir des keycaps imprimés ralentit fortement l’apprentissage dactylo. On a vu des gens qui tapent depuis plus de 10 ans sur un TypeMatrix imprimé en Bépo mais qui ne savent toujours pas taper en dactylo.
• Aucun clavier ergonomique ni aucune disposition alternative n’a le moindre intérêt sans méthode dactylo stricte : chaque touche est associée à un doigt bien précis.
• Acheter un clavier ergo avec des keycaps marqués ne sert à rien, et les vendeurs de claviers ergo le savent parfaitement. Ils en proposent quand même parce que ça correspond à la quasi-totalité de leurs demandes.

Anyone know where I can find a replacement Left STRG key cap for my Logitech G810. Mine was lost in a tragic vacuuming accident yesterday. The only person on Ebay that has the right key caps has already sold the STRG that I needed.

“I needed #keycaps too. There are plenty for the gamers: built for speed, in Fisher-Price colours, with lights and suitably mysterious runes.

But quieter, more intense #nerds wrote of a company called #Ursa, which had subtly resculpted so that, rather than being the same shape, each cap was individually dished toward the finger and cast in a unique, double-strike process with the letter and the body actually made of two differently coloured materials. You don’t just order Ursa #caps

I’m a hack, not a spreadsheet jockey.

You find their website, leave your details and pray they’ll tell you they’re “dropping” a run – about twice a year, as far as I can tell.”

I should curtail looking at this website before I drink my ☕️ in the AM.

My partner just told me about https://keycapquarry.com/

These are absolutely beautiful #mechanicalKeyboard #keyCaps but I can't justify $80-180 per cap!

Recently unpacked an older favourite #MechanicalKeyboard of mine and using it since then: The rather flat #VortexGear #Race3 with #CherryMX #SilentRed switches and (#Massdrop × #Hasbro) #XDA #Scrabble #keycaps, designed by @cassidoo.

Oh, and while looking for the original product link, I just noticed that (Mass)Drop now seems to belong to #Corsair and really died completely 😢: "Starting our next chapter, #Drop will become a hub for our collaborations with truly exciting titles." 🙄

I'm not 100% about the color, but it sure is nice to be able to see the legends again.
