The full story

Daniel Lombraña moved from cheap mechanical keyboards to a fancier ergonomic one because long coding hours were hurting his back and neck. He then let Claude improve the keyboard's firmware, adding features he wanted. The blog post is a short account of how that went.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
