  1. i have a thing to complain about.
    i have recently been getting into keyboards and alternative layouts. which is all well and good.
    i have three keyboards: a #unicomp model m, a #corne , and a #hhkb .
    the corne was already vial compatible, i was able to flash new firmware for my unicomp and that's just fine.
    the hhkb. the hhkb only use a proprietary remapping tool, and my hhkb, the professional classic, is not supported for the arbitrary reason that it is the base model.

  4. Things that are awesome: buckling spring keyboards. Decided it was time to clean the keycaps so pulled them all off, tossed them into the ultrasonic cleaner, heated the water to about 55C, added a few drops of dish soap, and let them clean for about 15 minutes.

    Removed the keycaps, blew them off with my Wolfbox blower, then eventually installed them back into the keyboard. It's nice to have the keyboard clean and clicky. Also: installing buckling spring keycaps is a pain in the ass.

  11. so i have been using my #unicomp model m after using my #hhkb for ages with my laptop and in many ways its a nicer experience. sometimes i miss the dedicated arrow keys. however. my model m is iso uk layout, the same as my laptop. but i have gotten really used to the hhkb american layout.
    things like the escape key being closer, the backspace being above the enter, control on caps lock (by default, i use software to rebind it on my built in laptop keyboard and my unicomp).

  46. My next big wiki page revision is coming along nicely! #Unicomp, the 'torchbearers' of #bucklingspring #IBMModelM #ModelM keyboards, deserves a good, informative, factual page as well! Aiming for a release potentially as early as a few days, maybe a week?
