No Q,A,Z buttons, is this some sort of joke I’m not understanding?

I just never type words with those letters.

What a quizzical answer ;)

I could never type tht

This looks nice but how do you type on it if a few letters are actually missing?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Q, A, and Z are mapped to the Esc, Tab, and Shift keys on layer 0 and then there are additional layers for everything else.

Love it. Nice way to save space and take advantage of relative frequencies of keystrokes.

I honestly don't understand these small keyboards like let me buy this dope mechanical keyboard so I can use the mouse to do simple shit like copy and paste

Looks gorgeous though

That's a sad keyboard! Whatever caused @cloffwrangler pain can't actually contain madness! Thanks, that's quite puzzling...

(All that requirered astonishingly absent caps.)

Looks very neat, and very portable. Nice!

Love my Banana Milks, glad to see them getting some love. I should be getting my Melon Milks for my 40 this weekend. I'm new to tactiles so I'm curious to compare the two.

Oh nice I'd be interested in hearing what you think about the Melon Milks. I used to be more into linears but I put some tactiles in a board I built for my wife last fall and I think I'm a convert now.

Do we have a RemindMe bot yet? I'll do my best to remember!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

~~you can trigger one using !remindme and then the length at the start of a message~~

Edit: its offline temporarily so that I can comply with lemmy.world bot rules
