Late to this, but you can’t call tactiles “brown” anymore; ever since Cherry’s patent expired some 10 years ago the market has exploded. Right now I’m typing on a franken tester board with some 30 tactiles of different make and model, and I barely have scratched 20% of the tactile switches available on the market, by my estimation.
What are the keyboards she is using now? Did she express any preferences about them? What typewriter is she using?
Budget and location might make things a little tight, HMRC really loves collecting their due.

Yea, the moment hotswap and a degree of customisability is called for, a lot of the mainstream “niceties” tend to be dropped.
Points 1, 2 and 3 are practically non-existent in the hobbyist mechanical keyboard space. You might get a few 100% boards but open floating design is not favoured, and passthrough is considered unnecessary.
Dang, lucky you! Though also what in the world did the previous owner do to it to kill the battery so dead in just 3 years.
I see. I guess it’s a mindshare thing then, I myself only heard of KMK from your project!
Holy shit, that is a great deal regardless of where in the world you are. How’d you get it so cheap?
Tough as hell, good to great keyboards, Trackpoints are the bomb if you do work in an enterprise environment (more text than graphics)
Oh that’s pretty nifty. I assume it’s not used as much because it’s more expensive to implement?
What’s KMK and what’s the advantage of it over QMK?
It’s not that simple. Is this for simple sexual gratification? A fantasy? Short-term relationship? Long-term?
When I was 20, I had my fantasies and had several one-night stands as well with older men. That’s where the attraction ended; it was more of a fantasy/kink, but I held no romantic interest in them.
The issue mostly is with power imbalance, it’s very easy for the older person to use their experience in life to limit the agency of the younger partner, so it takes some work for an age gap relationship to be a healthy one. I’m in one myself, and I do my best to be mindful about this.
Asian cultures don’t really see it as normal too, tongues were wagging with one of our Singapore president candidates in the recent election; he was 75, she 45.
I know, that’s why I don’t begrudge them, but at the same time, I do feel a little weary on the inside when I see another interesting game that’s pixel art. xD
I live in a rural area. The most I’ve ever had to wait was during a lunch rush one day. About 5 to 10 minutes or so.
And here I thought rural areas would have less vehicles (and people) so that wouldn’t be a thing. Meanwhile I don’t think I’ve ever had to wait more than 2 minutes, and I’m in a super dense city!
Generally it’s down to genre and mechanics. I obviously have my preferences so I’ll always keep a lookout on those that interest me. As well as avoid those I don’t.
I generally don’t have a preference for art style (I appreciate a wide variety of them), though I confess, I am getting a little tired of pixel-art games.
It’s really the Fairphone, you don’t have many options.
MT3 is exclusive to Drop, so yea, get ready to pay the premium.
I do note Amazon sometimes has them, and my local Amazon had the Sulawesi Mt3 for quite a bit cheaper than Drop’s website, so you can take a look there.
You want a tactile switch, likely something with a bigger tactile bump to mimic those switches. Maybe a low profile one to also mimic to lower travel on the scissor switches.
Technically, it’s easier, because there were 0 in the past. :P But yes, the variety of choice is dazzling!
