How are keys like this to type on? I spend all day on my keyboard and I want a nice smooth sculpted strike point on my key caps. It would seem the raised stems and bits would be irritating.

I would just make a separate macropad myself with a knob.

Planning on making a 5KNOB, macropad/volume center for my pc, in the upcoming days.

Is that a stack of balisong stickers and a matching pin? Also, seeing that GBA in the corner reminded me of how I have no idea where mine is 😭 But I’ve still got my SP and chunky original DS. Love the color theme going on here! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ Oh, and nice find re: the keyboard haha 😂

You can choose the switches you get on it. I was just looking at the order site. You order it to be built through upgradekeyboards.com. They have a lot of options you can pick from. Though, you are right that you are stuck with what you choose unless you want to de-solder the switches to put in hot-swap sockets or solder in new switches.

Course they can! But OP said they were trans in other comments and played off the well known thigh-highs wearing coder joke, which is much more common among trans women than trans men. I could be wrong, of course, but I only made the joke based off OPs own humor and comments on the subject. I wouldn't have made it otherwise.
