Does anyone run their desktop environment containerized?
I’m used to using Linux from the terminal. I have a new machine which I plan to use mostly headless but would occasionally like to run a desktop environment and play games with GPU acceleration. I know I don’t have to launch the desktop environment on startup, but I was wondering if it’s possible to have that entire...
Microsoft says a Copilot key is coming to keyboards on Windows PCs starting this month (www.cnbc.com)
In progress build: DIY layout from KLE, Laser-cut plate using files from swillkb.com, DIY laser-dye-sub DSA using a few Glyphs I did in Inkscape. (media.kbin.social)
Most tactile medium-to-light MX-compatible switch (including clicky switches)?
I’m looking for a lighter companion to the Clickiez 40g (which actually has ~75-80gf peak force). The Clickiez and the Box Navies are the only MX-compatible switches whose tactility I’ve really found sufficient before, but I’m willing to sacrifice a little tactility to get a lighter switch for some special keys. What’s...

Looking for a board with HHKB-like layout
For the past 5 years or so I’ve been using an HHKB and I’ve grown to love its layout. The (smaller) Delete, ~ and `` key placements is something I enjoy. The ~ key is used a lot in my native language and this placement is much more ergonomic for me....
Looking for a truly DIY keyboard kit
I would like to build my first keyboard, but I feel like the DIY-kits available don’t let you get your hands on the keyboard enough. For instance, I looked into the M1W barebone as it checks all the criteria I have (I would prefer a 75% board, with a knob, and wireless option), except the only thing left to do is to plug-in...

Handwired a custom layout TKL-like with elements inspired by various retro computers' keyboards (media.kbin.social)
Finally built a keyboard with my ideal 60% layout (i.imgur.com)
Been thinking of doing this for over a year and finally got round to it. Found parts. Spent hours soldering, lubricating, stuffing with foam and programming QMK. So happy with the final result. It’s a joy to use....
Used keyboard I bought has keys that don't respond when pressed. Any hope in saving?
Its a Razer Blackwidow elite I got for cheap, the listing just said “sold as is” and had some pictures. Didn’t mention anything about bad keys. Kicking myself now for trying to cheap out. My question is if there is anything I can do to repair it. If so is it worth doing? The switches are not hot swappable if that’s...

Can i use the black tape (electrical tape) to prevent the short of circuit board?
I have read about some guides and in the progress doing the dactyl manuform, and I have seen that many people used some tape called “kapton tape” or used some shells pulled out from the wire to seperate the columns and rows of the matrix....

Considering turning my Ducky One 2 Mini hot swappable
I’m currently thinking on modding my Ducky with mill-max sockets. I know there is a lot of soldering involved but seems like a cool project. While looking for people that done the same thing I only found this reddit post. Is there anything better than the mill-max socket these days or should I just go for them?...

No need to bend the legs, no need to do wire stripping. I did this in 30 minutes casually… I guess the full halve will take around 1 hour

My first hot-swappable keyboard: the K2 Pro (lemmy.ml)
I just got a Keychron K2 Pro and I’m very much enjoying it. The OSA profile keys with the brown switches are a massive improvement over the cheapo 2nd-hand membrane keyboard with the flat keys I was using before....
Options for integrated pointing device
Many years ago I had a ThinkPad and I had such a nice workflow using the track point. I had good precision without having to move my hands. Now I’ve moved to a split keyboard (kinesis freestyle edge currently) but I’m wanting to get something similar back....
TEX Shura w. TrackPoint, hotswap, and both ISO and ANSI support (lemmy.ml)
I’m really looking forward to receiving this board! I’m pretty hooked on using trackpoint, and have the earlier Shinobi from TEX, which I really like (with U4Ts and keycaps I carved in to fit around the trackpoint)....
