Hello
« on: Mon, 25 August 2014, 21:09:15 »
Got tired of r/mechanicalkeyboards being 95% posts asking how to get cereal out of a keyboard, so I came here. I'm currently running my HHKB pro 2, my ducky shine 3 year of the snake with MX blacks, and I'm figuring out what third keyboard I want to pick up(with blues or clears). I'm also planning to pick a ducky shine 3 year of the horse(whenever that comes out). The biggest thing I need is I need to know where to get backlit pbt caps. The abs caps on my ducky get dirty way too easily.

~I've had people hate on this username, and I've even had a tf2 forum ban me at one point. I just used to correct grammar a lot on an old MC forum, so I changed my steam name to GrammarNazi, and the name stuck.

Welcome to Geekhack!

AFAIK there is only one set of backlight-friendly PBT keycaps at the moment, and they are Vertex.

There are a couple of threads about those around here.

Nice choice of keyboards so far :)

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Welcome! No one here would find fault in one having enough self-worth to take note of what is considered proper grammar, nor would you likely be faulted if you were to correct someone. Take my advice with a grain of salt though; I'm new in these parts too.

Welcome!

I've stopped using the subreddit recently. It's only gotten worse over time.

GH, however, has only gotten better in my 14 months here.
