Use j,k navigation to focus on a post and then tab to the avatar/username and press Enter to open the card.

There is no way to close it again using the keyboard. (Workaround is to press Enter again to visit the profile page, then u to return to the original page, but that’s a pain.)

Firefox 36 and Chromium 41 on Ubuntu Gnome 14.10.
