trinque: verisimilitude: tbh I agree. I want a portable with a human keyboard, proper key action
trinque: I don't give a flying fuck about thin.
asciilifeform: trinque: i've actually been experimenting (slowly) w/ infamous 'gluegun on wheels' + buffing paste, for possible ad-hoc plastics worx
asciilifeform: apparently nao can get various exotic feedstock for'em, incl. carbonfiber + various filler
asciilifeform doubts, currently, the possibility of a trooly usable '3dized' keyboard; but ~molds~ are another matter
trinque: yeah, the printed mold approach seems suitable
trinque: carbon fiber laptop chassis and keyboard would be pretty nice indeed.
asciilifeform: aaha
asciilifeform: atm thinking that the most promising approach to these is -- sadly -- the scavenger one : msdos-era lappy kbds cost next-to-nothing on ebay et al, and often enuff new-old-stock, perfectly functioning if one builds the matrix controller and appropriate chassis around it
asciilifeform: not 'renewable resource' , naturally. but atm the biggest, by far, 'bang for buck' afaik.
asciilifeform: trinque: really, lappy chassis (and keys) oughta be stampings. from steel, like kalash.
asciilifeform: but this is obv. difficult to prototype in small qty.
shinohai: >Steel stampings .... welp at least my kybd will survive nuclear holocaust or something.
verisimilitude: I referred in particular to software with that, but hardware has degraded with it, certainly.
trinque: listen, you never know who you may suddenly have to bludgeon.
verisimilitude: I do type less, but believe this chording keyboard has greatly helped with my pain, now that I'm growing accustomed to it.
verisimilitude: I don't think I'll want to ever return to predominantly using a typical keyboard.
shinohai: trinque: If I use as bludgeon, then imma go all the way and engrave the keys so they leave imprints on forehead.
verisimilitude: I don't yet use it for programming, however.
shinohai is still using Chinesium "Redragon" mech kybd ..
verisimilitude: I'd recommend the BAT, but others here trying other options is also advantageous.
