  Missed opportunity to add a trackpoint.

  That keyboard looks really nice, but the placement of the R CTRL would cause me fits.

    Do you actually use the right control or shift keys? I do always touch type but I pretty much only use the left modifier keys.

      Right shift, but not right control.

      I personally don’t use the Right ‘anything’, like ever.

      I’m a different person but I sure do.

    Yeah. Right Control should be where Fn is for sure.

    And as an ISO keyboard user, I need my right Shift key, so that Control has to be a Shift instead. On ISO, left Shift is small and right is large. For that and other reasons I use the right one way more than the left. And if that's not possible for deep technical reasons, hard-wire it to the left one bypassing all of the trouble. It wouldn't be the first time a keyboard did something like that.

    ... and what do you know, there's a even little space there with no key where they could put the Fn key omitted by those changes.

    Everything else I could deal with. Even the otherwise US layout. It's been a while since I used one, but occasionally there's a hiccup and I'll reach for double quote or at-sign in the opposite places, so that muscle memory is still there, maybe waiting for mangling into typing on something like this.

  No numeric keypad. Useless.

    Just wondering why numbers aren’t a modifier layer since long ago?

  • rollerbang@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I’m very happy with alternative layers for numpads and such now. It does depend on the use case I guess.

  Oh, oh! That’s not a brand sticker, it’s a display screen! Nice!

  It looks nice, but I don’t get it. What’s the use case ?

  • caseyweederman@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Distraction-free typing work like writing or coding

    • Usernameblankface@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      An antique mechanical typewriter is the best thing I’ve found for writing. Useless for coding, so there’s the product above for that

      Thanks. I guess for writing I can see the point. But isn’t the screen small for coding ?

    I think its a version of the Raspberry PI 500+.

  Nice ad bruh.

  • replicat@lemmy.world ⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    It’s open source and not for sale

      That doesn’t stop this post from being an advertisement for it.

  I might have misunderstood the intended use for this, but is there any way to connect a mouse or a monitor? From the picture gallery, it seems not, but I could see myself using something like this without the monitor and the mouse while I’m out and then connecting it up when I’m home.

  Looks a lot like the BBC Micro. Cool design choice.

  I have always loved the concept of computers like this one.

  I have a picocalc on order but I am aware I am unlikely to make such a restricted use platform work for me day to day.

  I also have a GPD MicroPC 2, its just about perfect for me for actual travel usage as its just a small PC.

  However I like the fact its based on a PI as it has a wide range of options for expansion and a large base of support to take it further if you need it to.
