Matrix Lab, you’re a little weird, but I love you for it. NGL I kinda want this layout just to have a humongous f-off 2x2u key to map ridiculous functions to.

It reminds of the “Tubbo Custom Build” video by glasses when he has the keeb with almost the same design.

I believe that’s an adequately sized print screen button. Yeah, I could use that.

I’d say they’re not too shabby. Never thought I’d see the intersection of keyboards and shibari!

Twister but with your fingers. Imagine playing it:

Many interests, indeed.
Those caps look so naked without any legends on them… still, I can tell you’d be an indispensable addition to an impromptu sea-faring crew with knotty skills like that.
I’ll see myself out.

I’m guessing GMK Shine is in the works. I mean, you do you – it’s all good.

This graph.
How many shitpost nuggets can you find here? My favorite has to be a low-actuating switch rated the very highest for gaming potential.
5/7, perfect

If low actuation is key to gaming, I think I have the perfect candidate:

Honestly that would probably be better for gaming…
I was just thinking we need a good phrase for this category, even if there’s only a couple switches in it right now.
Generally, “speed” switches are ones that actuate sooner than halfway through their travel; given a standard MX-style full travel of 4mm, “speed” switches actuate sometime before 2mm of travel.
Frogs on the other hand, actuate somewhere beyond 2mm of travel - you have to push them down farther before they register. IDK if “slow” is at all a helpful moniker, save to communicate being the opposite of a “speed” type.
As for why you might want this: maybe you like the feel of switches that weight, but make a lot of accidental presses - having a lower actuation height compared to the travel can help mitigate that. If you’re a typist that tends or likes to bottom-out, these could also be good for actuating a bit more like a “traditional” dome board while sounding and feeling a whole lot better.

Ah yes, the legendary Kailh MX Blue switches.
Also, anyone here remember when this keyboard was popular all those years ago?

Okay - I found a wild one today… A keyboard that has an mode to turn the RGB into a VU meter. I’m not kidding.
And this is one the the keyboards I have here – and I’ve confirmed that it works…
