Author Topic: the forget m8 forums help me find a mechanical keyboard with japanese keycaps  (Read 4781 times)

wow, person asks simply for some help locating an object
so we all sit down and complain about why such a person could want an object
oh the humanity someone wants a keyboard that can type in two languages

i did several vague and then somewhat detailed searches around and i'm not getting anything either, but can i ask what the difference is between a mechanical and whatever else isn't mechanical?
i wouldn't use that word though, it's a legitimate question so you might as well help or ignore it and move on, he really isn't purposely shoving it in anyones face

mechanical keyboards have more of a "switch" type button instead of a membrane under it like normal keyboards. it's more clickly and accurate and can hold more key presses than membrane ones

It's more aimed at this

oh god a thread about learning a language my eyes


wut

its a thread for people who like the japanese language and want to learn it / know it.
it specifically states if you arent interested then dont populate the thread or complain about it.
Well it's not the thread but I guess a mix of things, OP seems... obsessed.

Also is there any reason you are white knighting for him?

i don't mean to seem like a huge prick but uh

not quite. I still love American and white people stuff way more than I'll probably ever like Japanese stuff. I post about it occasionally (slightly more the last couple of days) while also bearing a Japanese name and avatar. it's just something to do I guess

If you notice waru is also a Japanese name and it was my old account. I gave it to him blah blah and he also likes Japanese and stuff. I wouldn't say white knighting because he's more insulting you and I could of held my own without him

No idea if it's mechanical but they are kind of overrated as magical anti fatiguing keyboards anyways :-)

Yeah I had a feeling he was your friend.

These pretzels are making me thirsty

similar to what soukuw found there, here's something that probably isn't mechanical either

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Japanese-English-Black-Bilingual-USB-Computer-Keyboard-/400311799645?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item5d34714f5d

it's $40, free shipping worldwide, the seller has a 99.9% positive feedback rate so maybe this is a good thing

did you just completely skip over the part where I explain that I'm not obsessed over it

These pretzels are making me thirsty

not quite what I'm looking for, once again not mechanical, but thanks anyway. I'll keep searching around.

I explained in the op that I can't find key caps either :(

i really dont see why you want this.

you are likely not going to use the japanese symbols much, you likely dont even know what they mean. just use google translate or something.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking since OP didn't use his knowledge of Japanese to just Google it.
