An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Isn't it super heavy as it contains a metal core? Or else it's another one from the same era.

everytime someone posts a non iso layout, i kill a hostage

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I have that exact one. It’s a membrane board, but not bad sounding. I love the Big Ass Enter key. I tried and failed to convert it to mechanical. Impossible to find a mechanical keyboard with a BAE, sadly.

Look into vintage ALPS boards like the Focus FK-2001.

Is it weird if I remember exactly how this feels?

[–] kubok@fedia.io 3 points 2 days ago

Dude! Congratulations! Mechanical?

As for the big ass enter key, when I bought my laptop, I specifically ordered it with ISO layout for my keyboard.

manly whistle

That's a damn fine lookin' keyboard right there!

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I have two of its older siblings. Both having an older design, one US layout with the bigass enter key and no winkeys, one HU ISO layout with winkeys.

I hope those aren't pubs up there on the right

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That keyboard gives off hot dad vibes for sure!

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

Still has a windows key. Microsoft must have made some crazy OEM deal with keyboard manufacturers.

I'm typing on the black Dell version of this right now.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Me too! I’d get a new mechanical keyboard but they start asking if I want red, brown, blue or beige switches and I’m like “I dunno what that is!”. Also they cost a tonne and my Dell came free with a tower PC.
