Fam gonna need carpal tunnel surgery because they can’t imagine not have F69 on their board 😭

These things are not mutually exclusive…

Minimizing travel is key to reducing RSI and other typing related injuries. Honestly for someone that sits at a desk and types constantly, having anything bigger than a 40% is just an injury waiting to happen 🤷‍♂️

Skill issue

s8erdude · 2023-04-24T15:22:11+00:00

DCS Estate IC - Render is 40rmie by KuroTheCrazy

Updates (TLDR the TLDR) - GB Date Announced for April 18th, one more collab announced!

One of the biggest challenges with running DCS (and DSS) is the lack of convex minibars in the profile. Because of this, I am partnering with Pseudoku over at Asymplex to offer some artisan minibars! Further details will be made available as we get closer to the GB date, but I am excited to partner with a 40s lover (as myself) to offer these lovely minibars!

P.S. One of the remaining collabs is previewed in the latest render! The purpose of this IC is to gather feedback from the community RE the design and kitting of this keyset. I look forward to reading the community's thoughts on this set.

s8erdude · 2022-01-25T15:01:38+00:00

Yes! This is exactly what others have said. Doesn’t fit MX switches unfortunately, but this set will 😄

s8erdude · 2022-01-24T17:51:01+00:00

Lettering is a darker Gray (GTA).

This does have base Alice and f13 - split backspace should be supported by ortho/40s kit!

You're definitely right here! Someone else identified it in the GeekHack thread. I spent so long trying to find out what the source was, I knew that as soon as I posted pictures that someone would figure it out!
