Look at a Charybdis from bastardkb. Got a trackball built into the keyboard.

Lol the price of these fad keyboards are comical... 180€ with no switches and no keycaps?

The hardware is open source, but yes, it is 3D printed.

Its definitely not for everyone but it has saved my wrists at an office job. Can recommend split ergos with risers for people with wrist problems.

I printed and assembled one myself for about $90 for all parts, so I can somewhat understand some of the the prices... But whew that's expensive

180€ is like a day or two of work. It is a fair price in my opinion.

[-] Damage@feddit.it 2 points 3 months ago

Except it isn't 180€ cause it's missing parts

[-] b0gl@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Yes. But you have to understand that it is a custom keyboard. It is not meant for the mainstream. For people interested in the hobby; it's not an issue that it comes without keycaps or switches. You get to choose what you want switches to put in it. I personally have over 400 switches and like 6 sets of keycaps. And that's just what I've been collecting over the past five or so years.

Standard galactic alphabet?

Do you have specific keys for SimCity disasters?

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Yes, meteor is for meteor showers, storm cloud for thunder storms obv, and the flux one is for not needing roads.
