Amazing! Mu and kmnov2017, you are officially my heroes kmnov is shipping my part of the order from Germany to France. Much love for you guys

It's an awesome keyboard, I got it last month as well. I managed to get it running under Linux the way I wanted to, but using the software was mandatory. After a lot of fiddling , I could get it to run in a Windows 11 virtual machine. I actually really enjoy the big round buttons, I use them to lock ...

Ohh I see. Thanks! I'll try again tonight. I've never used Vial before so it wasn't immediately apparent to me that you just needed the firmware for the right keyboard model, which will allow to pick the correct layout variation later, in the software.

Salut ! Ca fait longtemps, vers 2015-2016, je suis venue pour un meetup parisien hébergé par vsev, ensuite je suis disparue du forum. Maintenant je reviens avec quelques années de plus, quelques clavier de plus bien sûr (mais pas à vendre :lol:) et en plus je suis maintenant dans le sud, à Marseille ...

Oh wow that was so long ago lol. Back in late Feb 2016, Mu sent a message to vsev and myself to know if our Unicomp order was to be sent to vsev only or to both of us, we decided it would be vsev. I haven't heard from him since March 2016 and I also haven't been around the forum since around that ...

Given that I have not been made aware of any glaring issues with the prerelease copy posted by Ellipse earlier, I'm ready to announce a Release 4 of my Vial firmwares for the Model F Labs series of F-model keyboards.


Hi! I've been a long time away from this forum, and I'm not sure if this is ...

Yep, too bad. Oh well. One should never be too optimistic with regard to delivery services.

Ouch! When is your flight, Mu?

That's cool to know, thanks!

Yeah, she understood what you were after. But time is too short to make new legends. They had to be available already to make the tight deadline. A few other keys were dropped for that reason too.

So if I understand correctly it's not impossible that they do new legends if they're not on a tight ...

One more story from Jeanne: we were talking about legends, and the tone of her voice when she said "the things some people want printed on their keys, you just wouldn't believe…" was just priceless! We were a lot better behaved than some she's dealt with before.

I just wanted my number keys in ...

I got something in the mailbox today...

It's for my only Cherry MX keyboard, a Filco Minila that I bought from cheesebaron and that I take with me at work every day. Well, I technically have another MX board, a ...

Trackpoint, right, that's how it's called. Thanks.

Could someone tell me what exactly EnduraPro Pearl/Grey is?
The picture on the keycap set seems to be normal Pearl Pebble to me, so the exact colors of standard Model M keycaps.

But what are these EnduraPro Pearl? Would be nice to know. :)

EnduraPro are their keyboards with integrated pointing ...

I don't know, it looks fishy. E-mail domain that doesn't resolve to a website, the guy recommending himself simply as "Roger"... I don't find that very credible. It could be OK, though, but I'd be wary.

Bon courage !

Très subjectif en effet, je code et joue sur du linéaire, même si j'apprécie les clicky et les tactiles (ergo-clears pas cette abomination que sont les browns), c'est mon type de switch favori.
Je vous ramènerai des gaterons linears si il doit y avoir un autre meet-up. Mon board principale utilise ...

Je te conseille d'être un peu patient afin d'essayer les MX Red ou Black avant d'acheter un clavier comme ça. Mon premier mécanique avait des MX Brown, et au boulot j'en ai un avec des MX Blue (mon switch préféré reste le buckling spring, mais c'est pas très pratique quand il y a des gens autour ...

Oh, OK. I now understand the objection and the reason behind it (ethics). I'll consider buying a couple of clacks (originals!) when I'm rich.

What's wrong with fake clacks? And no, it's not at attempt at trolling. I'm a total noob at clacks. I find some clacks... are quite nice There! I've said it!

Cool, merci pour les photos !

Much keyboard. So wow.

I would be in for a full blank key cap set, about 40 separate keys, a space bar, a couple of stabilizers and about 100 pivot plate/spring assemblies. Do you think you could fit that it your luggage?

The crappy production isn't a problem ( I like low production values ) and to be fair, the hats tone down a couple of songs in, but that first song was just all hat.

Yes, you're right about the first track. Hah, that Choking Victim song has such a happy tune!

@scottc: Very interesting, thanks ...

Pretty good so far, so much bloody hi-hat though...whoever mixed that album should be shot.

I like the hi-hats here, they give the album a lot of ambiance :cool:

Distorted guitars are a trademark of black metal; as for mixing, everybody knows that trve kvlt underground Cthulhu blaahk metaahl ...

HzFaq wrote: It's a normal spacebar, just upside down .

Oh, it's that easy?! Thanks, I had no idea. As I'm only using my IBMs and my boyfriend permanently 'borrowed' my only board with Cherry MX that has a normal space bar, I wasn't even aware that it could be flipped. I like the look of it.

Wow, that looks great! And the case is awesome! Not sure about your question about boards, but I'm very curious as to how you were able to get that tilted space bar. I've seen some photos with space bars like yours, but I don't understand how it's done. Or it just comes like this?

I also go in phases: metal, classical, oldies and electronic.

It's been a long time (eh?) scottc, so here's some metal for you: Drudkh, an awesome Ukrainian heathen black metal band.

I've had that album since it came out and I've literally just realised what it is...Sorry, I'll change the link.

Nah, don't worry, it doesn't bother me. I was surprised but amused at the same time. I listen to metal myself. (The song is cool, by the way.) Anyone like Motörhead? Do you have the ...
