"FUCK YOU" KEYBOARD

A keyboard with only F, U, C, K, Y, O, and U keys.
When connected to a computer, it functions as an actual keyboard. I’m not sure what you would use it for, but keeping it on your desk will give you a sense of empowerment.

※The current stock has been changed from a USB Type-C to a USB micro-B connector.
A USB micro-B cable that supports data communication is required to connect to your computer (charge-only cables will not work).

＊This product is scheduled to ship by the end of October. If you order it with other items, all items will be shipped together with this product.

There are two colors available.

⚠️Regarding our products
This product is a handmade art piece. Unlike mass-produced goods, there are individual differences in color, shape, and printing. These are not defects.
Also, depending on the material sourcing, the color tone may vary slightly between lots.
Since it is produced using a 3D printer, you may see surface irregularities known as layer lines. This is due to the unique nature of the 3D printing process and is not a defect.
Operation has been confirmed on Windows and Mac. We do not guarantee operation in other environments. A USB micro-B cable that supports data communication is required separately for connection to a computer.

✌️About Almost Useful Lab

Muda, Inc. has been questioning the illusion of utility through "Muda-zukuri" (the creation of useless things). In a society that worships efficiency and utility, human imagination and foolishness are often swept away. That is why we continue to create heavy, meaningless burdens to slow the pace of society, if only just a little.

Born from this new initiative is the "Almost Useful Lab."
Here, we develop products where "at least the function definitely exists."
They seem usable, yet they aren't. They have no place in your home, yet they are still there. However, perhaps somewhere, at some unexpected moment, they might come in handy. Or, they might remain completely useless until you eventually lose them.

Almost Useful Lab aims for a space that cannot be measured by a simple axis of useful vs. useless.
The fact that ambiguous, unnecessary, and utterly difficult-to-handle things exist in this world is something that brings us great joy.

⚠️About this product
This product is a handmade art object. Unlike mass-produced items, individual pieces may vary in color, shape, and printing. These variations are not defects.
Color tone may also vary slightly between production lots, depending on material availability at the time of manufacturing.
Since this product is made using a 3D printer, some surface texture known as "layer lines" may be visible. This is a natural result of the 3D printing process and not a defect.

✌️About Almost Useful Lab
株式会社無駄 (Muda, Inc.) has long questioned the illusion of utility through 無駄づくり — the practice of making intentionally useless things. In a society that worships efficiency and usefulness, human imagination and foolishness tend to get swept away. That is why we keep making heavy, meaningless things — to slow the world down, just a little.
From this spirit came Almost Useful Lab.
Here, we develop products where function is guaranteed — and that's about it. They seem useful, yet aren't quite. They have no obvious place in your home. And yet, somewhere, in some unguarded moment, they might just come in handy. Or they might never be useful at all, and quietly disappear one day without anyone noticing.
Almost Useful Lab operates in a space that cannot be measured on a simple useful/useless axis. Things that are ambiguous, unnecessary, and genuinely difficult to deal with — the fact that such things exist in this world is, for us, quite a wonderful thing.
