@sun Call me uncultured, but what are those runes under each letter on the keys?

@sun tkl chad
@sun get an 8bitdo c64 keyboard
@sun albeitnonethelesthough it is USB. are there any good USB to PS/2 adapters?
@ElDeadKennedy it comes with one
@ElDeadKennedy oh i meant the one i bought
@rain it's for an 8-bit computer called the Commander X16. they are special characters for creating character graphics like windowing
@sun That makes sense! Thanks for filling me in
@rain its a giant waste of money but i can't help myself
@sun Thats okay I am too recently coming off a few month long unneeded tech buying binge my self.
@sun what's special about the new keyboard, Dear Leader?
@sun obligatory hateful post about the missing num pad
@mitchconner @sun cope and seethe, tkl is fine
@ElDeadKennedy @sun may as well get a physical T9 keyboard at that rate. It makes me think of how Steve Jobs envisioned office workers using nothing but the mouse with the first Mac.
@mitchconner @ElDeadKennedy i'm not going to be doing data entry on this computer
@ElDeadKennedy its for my commander x16, it has the right keycaps for the unique keys on that machine
@sun @ElDeadKennedy i was mostly joking but kennedy knows how to push my buttons. I have a lot of them because i use a normal keyboard 😭
@sun yeah I know I meant over the stock x16 one
@mitchconner @sun looks fine to me
@ElDeadKennedy stock is a squishy membrane keyboard, this is cherry mx blue
@sun ohhh i see i see
@sun personally is it possible to buy a c64 keycap set and mount them on the 8bitdo c64 keyboard? personally i'd do that
@sun you could get a brand new set (they are kinda lame) or use an adapter to use an original set. mmmh
@sun the keycap width could be an issue now that i think about it
@ElDeadKennedy they're weird
@sun dear leader look this brand new keycap set look look
@ElDeadKennedy my new one has already shipped!
@ElDeadKennedy I also wanted to get an "official" one that was made for the system.
unfortunartely they only had black not white, the rest of my components are white

@ElDeadKennedy that looks really nice though
@sun cc @mitchconner keypad
@mitchconner @sun numpads are overrated
@ElDeadKennedy @mitchconner i love them but its just not necessary for the commander x16
@mitchconner @ElDeadKennedy wow just wow
@coolboymew @mitchconner @ElDeadKennedy @sun they're great and easier to use than the top row of numbers which is retarded
@triodug @mitchconner @coolboymew @ElDeadKennedy @sun people who don't like numpads aren't real gamers because they clearly weren't playing dwarf fort classic
@vriska @triodug @mitchconner @ElDeadKennedy @sun Pfft, that's easy shit. My friend can beat Megaman X emulated with a single hand on the numpad
@mitchconner @sun I didn't want to do this
@coolboymew @mitchconner @triodug @ElDeadKennedy @sun I bet your dwarves are starving
@why @triodug @coolboymew @mitchconner @sun ah yes the logitech g600 very good for farming the same dungeon boss for 14 consecutive hours on some random mmorpg
@why @triodug @coolboymew @mitchconner @sun i bet you made a female character to get free stuff from basement dwellers
@why @triodug @coolboymew @mitchconner @sun you know a few days ago i mentioned i was looking for a new mouse and the g600 was a possible candidate. how's the build quality? how long have you been using it? any double clicking issue?
@ElDeadKennedy @why @coolboymew @mitchconner @sun @triodug Mine's treated me well, but I had to replace my old one after a few years because it started double clicking. I do use mine for MMOs, though.
Be sure to get the three button one, you can use the third button as a Ctrl key.
