It also works as a bulletproof shield.

I saw this earlier today too, pretty amazing thing! I’m sure it’s got an amazing price tag as well :slight_smile:

Or a good Eve Online starter kit.

I’m considering buying a keychron k6 to use mainly with yggdrasil and orca, which is 20% off at the moment. mainly because it’s the cheapest option and a pretty decent keyboard. I just wish it was a little bit thinner, I have a k2 and I feel you need a wrist support to be able to use it. I like 65% size keyboards the best though, since I don’t like to be without dedicated arrow keys. also interested in other similar options if anyone has any tips!

Keychron K6 + Yggdrasil make a great combo.

soooo my k6 just arrived and norns doesn’t seem to be able to power it? do you use some splitter or something?

Nothing special on my end. Make sure the switch labeled BT / OFF / Cable is set to cable. (All the way right if looking at the left side directly)

think i’m in love

many msx computers had such a radical design!

a friend gave me one of these a long time ago (a quite common msx2 model from philips), which I made a little music on, but then the floppy drive broke and I didn’t bother getting a new one… I should get a gotek for it.

same friend also made some great idm using only moonblaster tracker running on an msx2 (a philips nms 8250 I believe, though not sure if it’s strictly ym2149 or the expanded y8950 sound chip which was featured in some expansion carts). sadly, his 2015 album is no longer on bandcamp, but here’s a spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/album/2JF7bBS59bFWeZHMIZXSDP

Looks cool but I think the screen might be too wide for me.

Size context for DevTerm https://twitter.com/Hal_clockwork/status/1348129811625988096?s=20

haha yes i love how boxy this is. was just thinking about the devterm and wishing they made one with a larger keyboard.

With the speakers, I’m thinking this looks like a sweet FoxDot/Tidal machine.
