Behold! The MoNoRi-Chan Special: A Frankensteinian Keyboard Masterpiece

Behold, my glorious creation – the MoNoRi-Chan Special! It's more than a keyboard; it's a testament to resourcefulness, questionable aesthetics, and the enduring spirit of "making things work." Let's dissect its unique, shall we say, charm:

A Legacy of Mismatched Parts

  • Keyboard Stands: A tale of two filaments. On the left, we have PLA, 3D-printed by my buddy Name. Slightly translucent, surprisingly rigid. On the right? Lex's contribution, some unknown, marbled monstrosity, lending an air of chaotic energy.
  • Keycaps: An eclectic mix. White alphas for legibility which is more difficult to hide c*m stains, red commands for a splash of aggression, and green functions because that's what was left in the bargain bin. The original Corsair spacebar reigns supreme, a black monolith amidst the chaos, its stabilizer mounts refusing to conform.
  • The Origin Story: This beauty owes its existence to the generosity of my aunt-slash-employer. We struck a deal: my budding tech prowess in exchange for half the price of this bad boy from Fry's Electronics. A fallen retail giant, adding a bittersweet layer to this keyboard's legacy.

Features, Flaws, and Future Modifications

  • Performance: Corsair K63 WL at its core, meaning snappy response, Bluetooth connectivity, and enough battery life to outlast my coding binges.
  • Flaws: That missing USB-C pass-through is a thorn in my side. A glaring oversight, especially now that my modding skills have reached the point where I could fix it myself (warranty long expired, of course).
  • Future Plans: RGB underglow? Maybe. Custom spacebar? Definitely. This keyboard is an ongoing project, a testament to my aversion to buying things the "normal" way.

The Verdict

If sleek minimalism is your jam, avert your eyes. The MoNoRi-Chan Special is a functional hodgepodge, a testament to community collaboration and making do with what you have. Does it always make sense? Absolutely not. Is it uniquely mine? Undeniably. And isn't that what truly matters?
