  • There is only pain down here as I tread further and further down. The only thing I can hear are the echoes of my screams within the vast emptiness of my wallet. Mechanical Keyboards, Switches, Artisans, THOCK, CLACK THLACK. I cannot remember the last time my bank account was positive. Please send help, I thought this was just a phase. It is not. This is meant to be satire and an exaggerated look at the silly things within this niche hobby!

    Technically the crazy mount he said could work. If you used o rings as the gaskets, like really small o rings wrapped around each gasket pop out (twice, somehow), then also have magnets in the bottom to precisely counteract the weight of the pcb, plate, switches and keys, and make sure you sauter your switches and somehow, the o rings to the plate, and then put in an arduino to set servos specific to each switch to cause small centrifugal force on the board for a unique tactile experience. Maybe. Oh, with a divergence meter on the top of the board ( I have not watched steins gate, plz don’t yell at me )
