Any UK-Layout keycaps identical to 8BitDo's C64 Keycaps? in c/mechanicalkeyboards@lemmy.ml
[–] cerement@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

it sounds like it’s going to be even more annoying than even @skarn@discuss.tchncs.de envisions – if you’re determined to go down this path, it will mean, at the minimum, opening up the keyboard you have to see what options the PCB supports before even thinking about purchasing new keycaps:

  • 8BitDo does offer some of their boards with ISO layouts BUT according to one Reddit thread, they’re missing the symbol key between left shift and Z – a quick image search shows renders with that key in place so “your mileage may vary” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • check the PCB to see if 8BitDo used a universal PCB (supports both ANSI and ISO including the missing symbol key)
  • if the PCB meets those requirements, then:
    • plan on desoldering and resoldering switches
    • plan on moving stabilizers

as far as the actual keycaps are concerned

  • 8BitDo commissions their own AF SA profile keycaps for their projects
  • you can get C64 style ISO keycaps but it really depends on availability – the two primary sources are Signature Plastics’ SA Retro set and Drop’s MT3 Retro set (it looks like the C64 Ultimate will be using the MT3 set)

start with something simple that’ll teach the basics of Linux – like LFS

What’s the big rush? (slrpnk.net)

“Graffiti on a support wall under an overpass that reads:

“‘What kind of paint are you using to paint over this? Because if it is latex, it's probably way too cold for it. You want good adhesion, you need like at least 40°-45°. Maybe wait till it warms up a little. I mean, what's the big rush? Like, I'm in a rush now, but our situations are different.’

“You can tell from the photo that previous graffiti was painted over many time with slightly different colors of grey with the latest cover up (that was written over with the above text) showing bubbles and ripples in the paint from using the wrong paint at the wrong temperature.”

This Is the Age of the Coward (www.theindex.media)
 

“The brazen hypocrisy staggers the mind. Disney, which commands a market cap larger than the GDP of many nations, can't find the courage to even wait for court challenges? Meta, which regularly boasts its power to connect billions, suddenly can't muster the strength to defend its own policies and users? These aren't businesses making tough choices – they're paper empires run by moral cowards—simpering, whimpering, and weak.”
