Getting a Mechanical Numpad that's also a calculator just to FEEL SOMETHING

Comments

I was feverishly looking for just this sort of thing a while back to go with my sad numpad-less keyboard. The urge to calculate is powerful. 😤🙏

Mine isn't mechanical, but I do love having a separate numpad. Especially useful for all the time I spend in Excel living my best life.

That is what drove me over the edge, I am entering too many numbers too often (and also often doing random calculations) not to have this. Plus someone on this website posted theirs once a while back and I've been thinking of it ever since. @kirkwinner.bsky.social mine is from 8BitDo

Yes! Mine is also the NES one! I even made a little button stand to the tune of the old cartridge cases to make the big buttons easier to press! Binding them to a bunch of contextual commands brings me great joy.

If you've found a calculator numpad that fits the vibe, I'd be well keen for a link 👀🙏

I believe this is the thing that will make your life complete:

Jon you beautiful man. Soon the final artefact will be mine, and I can ascend as a being of pure light and keycaps. 😤🙏✨️

Ah, do you have the NES style one? A friend has the whole set with keyboard, buttons, and numpad. ❤️

I do! I'd consider getting a mechanical keyboard eventually to match but I need one that's split down the middle (difficult to find but there are some places that do em)
