  • Alas, often, no. Just another logo we can't be rid of.

    In some cases, the Copilot key will replace the Menu key or the right Control key, a Microsoft spokesperson told CNBC in an email. Some larger computers will have enough room for both the Copilot key and the right Control key, the spokesperson said.

  • A colleague of mine is very happy with the Punkt phone.

  • I often make use that various non-windows package managers allow removing things in bulk.

  • Note to self: it's for Windows.

  • Super nice project!

    The custom keycaps, that's a dream. I'd love if there was a good method for that. I laser cut my board myself, too (but at a mkser space), and would love to make custom keycaps for it.

    To speed up the process and perhaps get less errors, could you possibly do all of them at once?

    Since you cut the plate, you have the drawing, so you could place the legends appropriately on that, then place keycaps on all switches and press play?

    Maybe you could start with small dots on four corner keycaps in one go to calibrate/not risk bad prints on a full keycap set.

  • That's a great question - sorry for the slow reply! I bought some from a mechanical keyboard online shop that had a sale, but maybe you can find some as cheap elsewhere.

    I bought SPRiT MX Multistage 55 M1 and SPRiT MX Extreme 45s Slow springs. I'm thinking I'll try the 55g ones first. They were just really cheap, so I bought the 45g, too.

  • I agree. But I'm Danish, where zero is called nul and and Ø is in the alphabet, so I try to cool ot a bit with the coolness.

  • Which of the infinities? There are many, many :D

    The smallest infinity is the size of the natural numbers. That infinty, Aleph zero, is smaller than the infinity of the real numbers, Aleph one. "etc."

  • I like the U4Ts (there is a also a silent version called "U4Ts", just FYI.)

    I haven't tried a ton of switches either, but the U4Ts are the tactile switches I have tried that I like the most for their noticeable tactility. And I've been using 68g, which maybe even hides some tactility. So I've bought some 55g two-staged springs I want to swap to.

    If you don't know it, then there is an immense collection of switch reviews which also covers the U4Ts: https://github.com/ThereminGoat/switch-scores/blob/master/U4T%20(62g).pdf

  • What have you tried that you didn't like? And did you consider swapping springs in some that you do like? Then you can those as light as you'd like.

    Did you try Gazzew U4T?

  • As a ThinkPad aesthetics enthusiast, I squint.

  • Did you check if there is a bios setting related to suspend, and that it's set properly?

  • It's the purpose of the laptops where I work :D We run everything on development servers, so the laptops just run your editor of choice, basically.

  • I think you can get those key placements on the Shura? If you look at this layout options image and think to apply the green and blue swaps, isn't that HHKB on all but the bottom row?

  • Perhaps the TEX Shura?

    It has a number of options for keys on various positions. The bottom row also works for some "unsopprted" combinations of keys, e.g. With 2u spacebars and different mods on the outside.

    Fair warning though: using the trackpoint requires either using the standard keycaps, or cutting into your own. Similarly the arrow key cluster uses 0.8u keys, meaning you need to shave off parts of regular keycaps. I've down this to use Cherry profile caps.

  • On my private machine, it's as you say! I'll have to check at work, that's where I I thought I had the problem -- which I now think might just have been me thinking the tab closed because of the tab change. That'd be a relief, because I'm now careful when closing tabs.

  • I don't think it does. It didn't when I checked a year ago, at least. You couldn't get live previews on the workspace pop-up.

    Can you point me to the feature you refer to? If it really does this, it would be a major game changer for me.
