Nice and I’ve half joked with Apple about giving that option as a keyboard for their laptops. Where’d ya get the board or keys from if I may ask. \*Honestly by this point and age (for me) it shouldn’t even matter unless I really REALLY have to see what keys I’m typing anyhow. ---

> [@A\_Rogue\_Child](#): > > by this point and age (for me) it shouldn’t even matter Whenever I last pulled off my keycaps to clean the board, I didn’t use a reference to put them back (suffice to say they’re subtly wrong). It’s not a problem for typing, but I was learning a new program/keyboard shortcuts and it messed with me at least a couple times lmao. ---

Keycaps came from [MaxKeycap on Etsy](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1323071156/starwars-aurebesh-theme-backlit-keycap). The keyboard sounds quite nice, but I’m going to replace the switches with some [quiet ones](https://milktooth.com/products/dove-he).

Oh I totally know. I’ve a little batch of friends who are gamers/programmers and one even works with a gaming company. All of them have desktop, keyboard, even desk and chair setups that make our little hobby look cheap. ---

And one of the big Gen Z holiday gift requests this year: analogue typewriters. They love old tech. ---

Had to adapt Aurebesh alittle with some Star Wars symbols… “Enter” = X-Wing (enter the Death Star Trench?) “Escape” = Rebel (makes perfect sense!) " Tilde" = Jedi (so civilized…) “Home” = Empire “PgUp” = ATAT (Tall?) “PgDn” = Death Star (Planet Down?) “End” = A-Wing? ---

Yeah, I wish they used symbols that would be more likely to appear in-universe, but any alternative keycaps I could find were worse in this regard. I mean not even the most dedicated troops of the empire would have a “vader” key, right? ---

The Vader key is a dedicated hotkey in the emperor’s chair arm. Press for apprentice. ---

> [@profezzorn](#): > > The keyboard sounds quite nice, but I’m going to replace the switches with some [quiet ones](https://milktooth.com/products/dove-he). I got my quiet switches and did the replacement, and now I’m not entirely sure which I like better. The noisy switches have a satisfying thock that sounds quite nice when I’m typing. Every sentence is like a Fred Aistair tap dance number. When I use the quiet switches however, I completely forget that the keyboard is even there, which might be even better… ---

Are you learning aurebesh? I sense you are One with the keys and don’t really see them. I had a friend in college who used blank keys and moved several of them. A fond memory: as he’s typing away at the same keyboard I asked what you can do with the ‘world wide web’. He was running a green screen Linux machine. And he thought about it and declared: ‘you can communicate’.
