We have a new machine at work, and this is on its keyboard.

I know this refers to it being a water resistant product, I just tend to get a kick out of Engrish instructions.

This is honestly kinda a cool bag. But it makes me go hmmm…
because it’s like the keyboard version of this

EDIT

also found out the bag may be a copy or clone?
At least alleged by another twitter user:

This at least makes more sense than showing off a keyboard.

On the one hand, this might be cool to the right person (and I guess there’s 58 of those people so far?), but I wouldn’t put this on my board.

It took me a bit to see that the left hand side does make sort of a tree. And it’s not expensive and they give express shipping, so I guess that’s something.

But I think you really have to be in the Christmas spirit to put this on your board.

Wow, that’s so creative. I also won’t buy it, but I appreciate the mind that realized that could be a half xmas tree with presents under it.

Same. The brown one had me stumped at first, but then realized it’s the bark of a christmas tree. Good one. I mean if that’s your thing, party on.

It’s cute but it kinda makes me wonder if the person who designed it is colorblind. Mint green doesn’t exactly evoke images of a tree to me.

Stumped, you say. What you did there, I see it :slight_smile:

I would suspect crappy manufacturing would be the culprit here.

I don’t think I’ve seen these before

My suspicion is that “cotton” is just a bad translation. There are some other odd turns of phrase in the item description:

and a zoomed in look on one of the photos looks suspiciously like standard foam:

I’m starting to think this thing is cursed :confused: the pcb that came with it got intermittent and then stopped working. I got the kanu replacement and now that is working intermittently.

Man, that sucks. :frowning:

I heard you like switches, so we put switches in your keycaps to put on your switches.
