Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The problem with cheap keycaps.

Time for some double shots rather than printed on nonsense!

Def. I've had my daily keyboard 5 years with use of gaming and work. Key caps still look very decent and no fade.

INB4 somebody brags about their Model M.

(Letting my parents talk me into getting rid of my first computer and my similar Tandy buckling-spring keyboard still haunts me to this day.)

The $20 white pudding pbt keycap set I got years ago still looks perfect today. Keycaps have to be made insanely cheap to fade nowadays

[–] evidences@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Same here. I bought a set of PBT double shots nearly 9 years ago paid 32 bucks for them and they're still perfect.

Yup, I've had the same keyboard for 12 years and have probably close to 30-35k hours work/gaming on it. Keycaps are still absolutely fine

I'm wondering if different skin oil composition between different people plays a role as well

Dorito dust is very abrasive, as well.

Doritos taste like shit bro
