[lament saffron]

When 40 HE is the better question

[verbal solar]

ngl its getting a bit hard not to buy it now

[sharp verge]

I'm still a bit perturbed by that light strip.

Shit mb on tagging you V lol

Didn't mean to use the reply. XD

[winged birch]

thoughts?

[verbal solar]

gasket mounted 60 would be massive

[lament saffron]

The future support/features for the 80HE haven't even been discussed yet so if you think it's hard not to buy it now, just wait.

[verbal solar]

i know of this already

if its gasket mounted and with jades i can overcome the layout

[winged birch]

is it not so much cleaner?

[verbal solar]

idk

gasket mounted 60he next

[winged birch]

wait for the 2.0s man

[verbal solar]

no

i like the jades

[winged birch]

The atk sound so good and it is not even good

haha

[verbal solar]

i want a deeper sound too

[winged birch]

Deeper you will get with gasket anyway

[verbal solar]

i will but idk

i'd insta buy if it was 60

[winged birch]

and I feel like the jades muffle the sound but also reflect it back a bit and with gasket if the sound travels in the case it’s not coming back out like with the 60

[verbal solar]

i mean ig we'll see

for my traymounted 60 im getting jades

60 and 65 are abt as big as i'd want

[winged birch]

To be fair, all non HE switches are closed like the jades so

[verbal solar]

i think for the current 60he i'll just finish it off with the jades and then look forwared to a gasket mounted one

[winged birch]

Jsut gateron 2.0s we already know of

[verbal solar]

gateron 2.0s are clear

[winged birch]

Probably a long wait unless you make or buy a custom plate so it’ll be similar to gasket

[verbal solar]

Raptors are the non clear ones

[winged birch]

raptor clears come in march i believe

[verbal solar]

im fine with waiting, i already spent 900 bucks on 2 60he's in just 2 months, i think i should cool off a bit

[obtuse wagon]

Wonder when Gateron drops the dual rail KS20's or have they already?

[winged birch]

but jades and 2.0s are better than raptors

[verbal solar]

kailh dropped box stem HE's iirc

[winged birch]

You had some time for self reflection? Cool off? 😧

[verbal solar]

that was until i saw a GMK set i liked 2hrs ago and im preparing to spend 150 on it b4 shipping

[obtuse wagon]

Was figuring Gaterons Dual Rail KS20's would be this way

[winged birch]

Yes but not double railed so unless tolerances are tighter than stem swapped raptor or 2.0s there’s no reason to buy

[winged birch]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[verbal solar]

there's also the HD800s i wanna buy and those are 1.3k

but thats for audio

[obtuse wagon]

But now I think about it, it will most likely be standard style switch

[winged birch]

I doubt it

[fast hound]

Hello, maybe someone knows will the zinc alloy version be available for purchase in 26 days or will you have to wait for it, I’m not talking about the usual 2 months of waiting,I mean end of 2024 or later

[winged birch]

Standerd lekkers/1.0s are really bad

[winged birch]

Those are not for the 60he

[verbal solar]

that looks like something

those are the KS37s

[obtuse wagon]

Yes but in that post they replied said KS20 dual rails are coming

[verbal solar]

not for the 60he

[winged birch]

Dual rail ks20salready exist

[verbal solar]

so soon

[winged birch]

atk68 ships with them

[obtuse wagon]

Any better than the standard Lekker ?

[winged birch]

The switches are called KS-20u

and the keyboard is called VGN VXE ATK68

[winged birch]

They sound far far far far far better stock than the lekkers/1.0s

[verbal solar]

its called magnetic 2.0

[tidal creek]

jesus if they actually released this i would have bought it, such a dissapointment

[winged birch]

#🌟│wooting80he message

[verbal solar]

gaterons names are shit

[winged birch]

Go on gateron.com

[lament saffron]

Everyone is talking about the unaligned arrow keys, bezels or wasted space but will turn around and say they like the look of this

[winged birch]

search magnetic

[winged birch]

I don’t

[agile rampart]

looks nicer than the 80he.

[winged birch]

I hate the look of the offset arrow keys

[winged birch]

This is what I love

[verbal solar]

they arent up yet

[winged birch]

Did they rename them

I saw them on their site yesterday

[verbal solar]

https://kbdfans.com/products/gateron-magnetic-switch-for-keyboard-kit?_pos=2&_psq=magnetic 2&_ss=e&_v=1.0&variant=41831519518859

[winged birch]

gimme a sec

either yall are blind or i am schizo

[verbal solar]

kbdfans has a link for them

[obtuse wagon]

I only see two switches on gaterons site also

But that keyboard you mentioned had a purple stem an white housing

[turbid sleet]

man it looks so bland

[fast hound]

any zinc alloy info?

[winged birch]

was it not called ks-20u

[turbid sleet]

is the 80he different in any other way than size from the 60?

[verbal solar]

idfk

[winged birch]

It looks so much better

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

[zinc hedge]

new light bar

[obtuse wagon]

Just KS-20's

[lament saffron]

The claimed advantage of the 2.0 switch is that with proper software you can set dual actuation levels. One for a normal key press and one for a long key press.

[winged birch]

You said it and I saw it with my own eyes

Am I schizo?

[turbid sleet]

in meaningful way i mean

[verbal solar]

they called it once KS20U

now its called 2.0

💀

[obtuse wagon]

Im just wondering when Gateron actually drops the dual rail KS20's doesnt seem they are sold seperately yet, just weird how they answered it on Twitter

[verbal solar]

weird folk over at gateron

[winged birch]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[winged birch]

Yes! I am not schizo

[verbal solar]

wanna fix that?

[winged birch]

They are already out but you can’t buy them yet.

[hexed dawn]

you can probs get them separately at a later point

[obtuse wagon]

Why they gotta be so weird

[verbal solar]

weird people

[winged birch]

Maybe a deal with the manufacturer of atk68

idk

[verbal solar]

kbdfans also has them in their rakka60 prebuilt

[hexed dawn]

I hope somebody has an uncle who works at kbdfans

[lament saffron]

Other companies will have them for sale in about 4 weeks.

[winged birch]

Gateron sooner?

[verbal solar]

theres way too many HE announcements back to back

[steady escarp]

gateron said theyll have them on their site soon as well

[lament saffron]

I dont have any info on what gateron will have them for sale

[verbal solar]

it is impossible to keep track

[winged birch]

I mean the future is here, gotta capitalize on that

[obtuse wagon]

Is it bad I could read that an know exactly how to sound

[fallow lance]

if only eh... IF ONLY

[verbal solar]

this is the 500th time i saw this please stop

[winged birch]

They sound better than stock lekkers, raptors and maybe stem swapped raptors even

[fallow lance]

nah its slimmer and no light 🤣

[winged birch]

MOREEEEEE

[fallow lance]

SO ITS THE FIRST TIME AKHUALLY

[verbal solar]

im done with this for now

[winged birch]

hahaha

[sharp verge]

Too many HE keebs

My head hurts now lol

[verbal solar]

i ordered the module in early december and now they drop 1-2 per day

[winged birch]

Wooting’s features destroys all of them though, except the rakka if what they claim is true.

real

[verbal solar]

rakka will also be a limited run iirc

[winged birch]

They’ll sell the pcb as a module separately though right?

[verbal solar]

i wish

[winged birch]

Would’ve been a waste of resources otherwise

[winged birch]

I think so

[verbal solar]

for now you can only get it with the tofu or the holy60 as a kit

we need to go back in time where the 60he was the only small HE board

[winged birch]

I’m quite certain it’ll release afterwards. They put a lot of effort in from what I’ve seen.

[winged birch]

Competition is good for everyone.

[verbal solar]

not for my wallet

[sharp verge]

Haven't seen the Rakka. Been out of the keeb scene for a while until Zoom75 came out.

[fast hound]

Does Two He is old to buy now? I was thinking about to purchase it on 28th, but sow announcement video on YouTube and after todays EOR stream I don't really know. What do you think about gasket mount important or just new capitalism scam? how to fly in gta5 on tkl

[verbal solar]

rakka is basically the 60he+module

[winged birch]

That’s not true, they should’ve copyrighted it. Would’ve been much better I think cause everyone would call it rapid trigger anyway

[verbal solar]

and split options

[sharp verge]

Gasket mount is not a scam.

[verbal solar]

"new capitalism scam" we had gasket keyboards for years now

they only offer FR4, CF and Alu for plates

[winged birch]

If you don’t care about how it sounds and just care for the layout buy whichever layout fits you best

[fast hound]

I know, but is it huge improvement between two he construction and 80he?

[sharp verge]

I guess I'll look into it

[winged birch]

It’ll be a while until the 80HE ships as well.

[verbal solar]

their 60he plates have flex cuts the rakka ones dont

[fast hound]

I'm ready to get it in 4-5 month max 😄

[sharp verge]

It should make typing experience a better feel. That being said, gaming won't change much. Unless you're constantly typing when you should be gaming lol.

[winged birch]

Flex cuts are bad overall for HE boards

[verbal solar]

https://kbdfans.com/products/takka60-holy60-plate?_pos=2&_psq=tak&_ss=e&_v=1.0

the standoffs seem in similar positions to the 60he

so maybe these are compatible

tho ofc only for the module

[winged birch]

Because they are less focuesed on rgb

[verbal solar]

GOOD MORNIN GUYSS

doubt they even have RGB

WOOTING 80HE LETS Go

[winged birch]

would be a bummer if not, rgb is quite useful

[verbal solar]

i only use the AOE effect

[fast hound]

I'm worried that this silicone will fall apart in a couple of years.

[winged birch]

I think so

[verbal solar]

true

[sharp verge]

That won't happen lol

[verbal solar]

this is how their app looks iirc

[winged birch]

A week or so and I can test gateron 2.0s with 60he

[winged birch]

Clean

[sharp verge]

Wait why did I get an email saying thank you for purchasing the 60he when I already got mine a year ago lol

[verbal solar]

the only thing this has over the 60he module is the split options

[winged birch]

It’s web based as well right?

[verbal solar]

no clue

[sharp verge]

For using my email for the 80he notification

[verbal solar]

i dont use chrome so it doesnt matter

[winged birch]

😂😂

[hexed dawn]

https://kb.rakka.dev/ found an online demo

[winged birch]

How you mean?

[verbal solar]

oh god kbdfans

[tropic surge]

mmh

[verbal solar]

i hope gateron doesnt run out of stock

[winged birch]

I have everything bound, so everything that “isn’t binded” I have as the main layer

bound*

Wooting need more features and DKS improvemnts

[verbal solar]

i only have 1

[winged birch]

and multi tap for multi media

[winged birch]

IMAGINE

[verbal solar]

wtf

[winged birch]

Yes exactly, double tap, double tap + hold, triple tap, triple tap + hold

so many more features need to be added

[obtuse wagon]

Have a feeling Wooting is getting around to that, UwU slowed it all up tho

Imo, just a guess tho who tf knows besides the team

[winged birch]

features is what made wooting (for a large part) but they don’t really seem to want to discover more capabilities

features wise

[winged birch]

same

[winged birch]

I want it beyond that

Just the best of the best

That’d be amazing

[verbal solar]

can someone explain to me what founders campaign is

Ahhh alright

[verbal solar]

oh my fucking god stop

[winged birch]

I will never because I can’t

[verbal solar]

ok lets do something else then

[winged birch]

Every chance I get I will post it

[verbal solar]

i will be back give me a few mins

[winged birch]

😳

[fallow lance]

sorry guys not enough room to move the arrows

[winged birch]

😂😂😂😂

[obtuse wagon]

Pay a little extra an get unique stuff, what Im waiting on

[winged birch]

imagine just the rgb strip as the main thing lmao

[sharp verge]

I see why you say that about the Rakka. 8khz polling as well. Interesting.

[winged birch]

8khz is

overhyped

[sharp verge]

For keebs yes

[winged birch]

for mice too

[verbal solar]

what are examples of this unique stuff? can u remember off the top of ur head. Ik its different for wooting 80 he but what have the previous releases entailed?

[sharp verge]

Ehh I don't agree, but it heavily depends on your monitor as well.

And hardware.

[winged birch]

I base my entire opinion on optimum tech’s video

[obtuse wagon]

The silk screen on the pcb, leather strap, was a couple things with the 60HE

[winged birch]

so I may be out of my depth lol

[obtuse wagon]

not sure what other keebs had before, the 60HE release is when I showed up here

[winged birch]

nothing unique like that

60he was the first afaik

[obtuse wagon]

Wonder what it will be with the 80HE ...

[winged birch]

some gadget prob

attachments

like a scope or a grip or something

for a better gaming experience

[obtuse wagon]

[foggy kayak]

Mac we’re out of crack. You wanna grab more?

[verbal solar]

this is the best design, no cap

[foggy kayak]

What’s different?

[obtuse wagon]

isnt that just stock?

[verbal solar]

yes

exactly, now shut the fuck up about it

[winged birch]

you want a war? war you will get

[verbal solar]

no i dont want a war, you're too turned on for this

[winged birch]

My opinion is superior because I think so!

[fallow lance]

im just sat back watching netflix and laughing at you two whenever i look over ngl

[winged birch]

😂😂😂

[verbal solar]

imagine paying for netflix

exactly

[fallow lance]

well i do have a server with radarr, sonarr, jellyfin and etc setup but i got more hardware last week and still waiting on another hba so netflix it is for now

[verbal solar]

i dont remember asking

[obtuse wagon]

I pay for Disney an Paramount solely for the kids

Verizon?

Might just be worth it for me to switch, currently just use Xfinity

But honestly all service here is kinda sketchy in my experience, its the dam mountains

How was it in Boulder?

[foggy kayak]

Bro I got Verizon and it pays for paramount, espn+ & Disney+

I gotta pay for hulu, hbo max and Netflix though

[upbeat berry]

just a small reminder this is a keyboard channel

[foggy kayak]

Sorry!

[verbal solar]

dont tempt me

[night crest]

non-enthusiasts first impression of 80HE: Weird layout, looks bulky, ugly side profile, non-floaty design like on Wooting One/Two is departure from staple design of previous products people loved.

[verbal solar]

floating switch is garbage

[winged birch]

The channel is for questions about the 80HE.

[glad fable]

Would be nice if bezels were thinner

[verbal solar]

[night crest]

for you maybe. If i wanted classic non-floaty keeb i would just build DIY one. Floaty/Low Profile is the future

[winged birch]

I’m actually curious why the forehead is so big compared to the other edges?

[verbal solar]

My opinion is superior sorry

[winged birch]

shuhs

shush

[verbal solar]

you really wanna know why?

[winged birch]

I feel it coming

Why?

[verbal solar]

i can not say the words here

[winged birch]

😂😂

[verbal solar]

i mean tehnically i can its just offtopic

[winged birch]

☝️🤓

[verbal solar]

ur tempting me rn

[winged birch]

say it!

[verbal solar]

not that, ur tempting me to do smth else

[winged birch]

what would that be? 🤔

[verbal solar]

its not safe for work

[night crest]

People expected streamlined product like they expect their Pixel/Iphone phones to be slim in '24. Instead Wooting gave us something that looks like old ass Motorola. Could it have cool stuff under the hood? Sure. But it looks like a**.

[verbal solar]

now time to watch new reacher episode

[verbal solar]

wtf kinda analogy is that

[winged birch]

That is not safe for work. This is however:

[night crest]

Superior one

[verbal solar]

we'll debate this later

[winged birch]

oh god

[verbal solar]

maybe in private :)

[winged birch]

the criticism is very constructive

[winged birch]

😳

[autumn viper]

Man that 80 is ugly. Why didnt they do a 75%

[verbal solar]

bro rlly pulled out phone wars to analyze a keyboard layout

[sage reef]

nah looks pretty good still, the Bezels stuff is pretty minor, attach a custom band like this and you fix arrow alignment issue

[winged birch]

If you call that a “fix” you’re hopeless

It would be funny asf if they add a strap there

[autumn viper]

might as well, what else to do with that weird negative space

[winged birch]

Calder said there would be something there

they moved the arrows to an ugly place so that there was room for “something”

and when that mysterious “something” gets announcers we’ll all understand

🫡

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/benny-fallout-fallout-new-vegas-what-in-the-goddamn-confusion-gif-24924085

[sage reef]

no band

[winged birch]

LOL

[fallen epoch]

Real burger mount

[winged birch]

This is turning into an 80HE meme channel lmao

[night crest]

this keeb is meme

unfunny one

Wooting was best of both world of gamer brands like Logitech and custom/enthusiast keebs. Now i might as well get Keychron or Ducky. Their just scrapped their whole image

[calm swallow]

mad

[winged birch]

Features wise wooting is the best

[calm swallow]

its fine bro was prob to broke to buy a wooting (jk)

[winged birch]

It’s not wrong though, maybe a bit harsh but not wrong

[calm swallow]

exactly and just say u bought food

[winged birch]

A job? What’s that?

[calm swallow]

getting a job is gonna make me use my keyboard less : )

[winged birch]

trueeee

can’t have that!!

[sage reef]

one big band hole top to reduce weight and bezel size, for a mega band

[winged birch]

You can stick a tablet in there too

[sage reef]

true

[calm swallow]

W idea, u can use it as a handbag (hang keyboard)

yeah good part still in collage for 5 month so i can live for free

for a bit longer

after that i need to stop being broke

[winged birch]

generates debt = living free

you are paying, you just dont feel it yet

[calm swallow]

free collage

[winged birch]

Wow

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/kevinmcgarry-lafb-loveatfirstbark-collage-gif-23112507

[calm swallow]

hmm nah boring

[placid whale]

the strap is installed correctly can you give it the optimum treatment?

[ebon sluice]

Looks fine, better than treading down that same beaten old path of traditional layouts. For every TKL or 75% I see, I'm one step closer to watching a Steven Segal movie. And that's not good

[winged birch]

How the heck did he manage to do that

[half trench]

ñ?

[winged birch]

ñ?

[upbeat berry]

skill and dedication

is doesn’t look bad honestly

Se puede realizar un pedido por adelantado del W80HE en ISO Spain?

[olive coral]

Does the wooting one have decent support? Looking on eBay rn

[buoyant solstice]

No support anymore.

Can't get spare parts.

[olive coral]

Ah that's fair

[verbal solar]

[winter coral]

sad when the meme wins with a cooler design....the whole design is based on the right shift...that it stays "normal" size.... I barely use it actually... so sad.

[buoyant solstice]

Same. Blues though.

https://tenor.com/view/neil-patrick-harris-shudder-shrug-disgusted-gif-13575156

[winter coral]

will buy it eventually... but anyhow...my hype is gone...

[silk hedge]

The good thing is thay by the time the 80he releases there will be more he switches or atleast more videos on the current ones

Yeah the layout got me a bit down but when i heard burger mount and zinc alloy case on release i was back on board

Not burger mount

Gasket

[winged birch]

For what do you use the F keys?

[fast hound]

Wooting wrist rest for TKL version was selling before, for now its only available 3 versions, fullsize, tkl and 60 for wrist rest, but because of new designee and lenght of a 80HE keyboard it will not suit what to do

[winged birch]

Interesting. Do you find it a hinderance to use the F keys on layer 2?

[winter coral]

wooting stood for me: research and development - setting new limits.....now an led bar will soon be shining at me from below....phew...would be nice to understand the concept behind it. in any case, today's video didn't make me any smarter and the design looks rather old-fashioned like a cherry keyboard.
but i don't want to complain so much either....the guys were looking forward to the day and put a lot of effort into it. let them sleep in peace today.

[winged birch]

I have read many that feel that way as well. I use the F keys on layer 2 quite often and never really thought about it.

[lament saffron]

Admittedly, the tech discussion (the how and why) havent been verbalized yet. When they are you will still see wooting as a r&d company who sets new limits.

[buoyant solstice]

Mhmm that's fair. I suppose we did leave more questions than answers from today's reveal. I'll be sure to pass that along. 🙂

[winged birch]

I use them for GTA and forts

For me the few ms it takes to reach the F row is the same as going to layer 2

😂

I don’t care at all, I’m interested in the way as I never felt hindered by it. Genuinely just a question.

[sharp verge]

Not a perfectly good thing to do considering he's got mistakes in not only mice things, but monitors as well. As a whole.... not great to rally behind his discussions, which leads to misunderstandings

[foggy kayak]

I’m interested in the 80he as it’s still smaller than a two he and it maintains everything I’d want other than the numpad.

[winged birch]

Well I didn’t mean anything with my question and you’re not forced to explain yourself to me if you didn’t want to.

[winged birch]

Yeah that’s why I said it.

Because it is interesting to me. Your answer was different than the person I asked previously. Not an entirely different reason but still.

Not what I meant at all.

[silk hedge]

Personally i dont think i use the f keys much but the arrow keys i would miss a bit if i go with a 60, so for now i'll wait to see what wooting has cooked for the 80 and then i'll decide

[winged birch]

I don’t think the 60% layout is good even. I said previously many times; I use makeshift arrowkeys. If wooting made a 64% I’d buy it because I find it a very big hinderance to not have arrowkeys.

[verbal solar]

personally i think people should use what they want 🗿

[winged birch]

I agree.

But

[verbal solar]

aint no way

[foggy kayak]

My downside of the huntsman mini compared to my rk68 is the arrow keys are bound via function. Makes it a royal pain in the dick to do anything with them.

[sharp verge]

That's always been the conventional wisdom. Unless you're plagued with buyer's remorse and need to validate your spending.

[verbal solar]

''plagued with buyers remorse'' u tell me bro

i spent almost 900 on 2 60he's modded 💀 and now they drop gasket mount

[sharp verge]

you're wrong. Now go back to the drawing board and I expect a 500 page essay on why you need this.

[verbal solar]

based only because of that hot ass girl in the pic

[sharp verge]

I'm still on my preorder 60HE. Though I did swap out the case for a different one

[verbal solar]

i bought every wooting product except for the uwu and 2he i think

[winged birch]

flaretech too?

[verbal solar]

Is there going to be a big performance difference from the 60he because this is hinting at it

[verbal solar]

right forgot abt the wooting one and those

[winged birch]

60% is not versatile at all.

[verbal solar]

yea they'll give you aimbot

[verbal solar]

lol

I just bought the 60he so I’m nervous the 80% is going to be a huge performance jump I hope it’s just a bigger size

i doubt it will be a huge performance jump

[winged birch]

finalmouse type marketing

[verbal solar]

Hopefully it’s just software improvements

You know more than us?

[verbal solar]

LMAOOO

[winged birch]

What the heck?!

[verbal solar]

i like this guy

Not asking for anything but like performance wise is there a noticeable leap

Damn

[winged birch]

What the heck?! x2

[verbal solar]

if i give u 1k can i have it early

[verbal solar]

lol

only for bragging rights

[winged birch]

bro is dead serious btw

[verbal solar]

i might be

for all the shit i own 1k is pretty ok

💀

[winged birch]

🥴

[verbal solar]

i just want it way faster so i can flex it

V what’s the most can u say ab the 80he

and ofc the zinc alloy one

[winged birch]

it is a keyboard.

[verbal solar]

Zinc alloy?

[winged birch]

Case

[verbal solar]

No shit I didn’t know I thought it was a burger

[winged birch]

Zinc Aloy* how calder said it

[verbal solar]

also give me the case files so i can make a 24k gold case for it

[verbal solar]

lol

V type what u want to say

🌝

Put it in me

whar about the 75HE 🔥

[winged birch]

🤔

[verbal solar]

why do you want a keyboard inside your ass?

[winged birch]

whar about the 64HE?

[verbal solar]

Performance wise we more talking software or hardware

[verbal solar]

Don’t worry about it

impressive

Thanks

you should do onlyfans

V stop hiding

[verbal solar]

Who says I don’t already

Daddy V

[winged birch]

🙊

[verbal solar]

if you're trying to fit a whole ass keyboard inside u, i want the link

Mods ban him

[winged birch]

ofc u do

[verbal solar]

💀💀💀

[verbal solar]

that would sell too easily

[winged birch]

he’d pay for it too

[verbal solar]

but tbh all they need to do is pcb and plate

[winged birch]

just the pcb and plate, it fits their alumaze, it can ship in the module’s box

it seems so easy to do

😭

[verbal solar]

i was 100% serious btw

Who says I wasn’t too

that one was obvious

[winged birch]

Really?

[verbal solar]

GOD DAMNIT

but performance wise i don't see what you could do to this

[winged birch]

That is something that I could’ve have imaged in a thousand years.. 😂😂😂

[fallow lance]

.5ms response 😄

[verbal solar]

its already the fastest

I just bought the 60he now this 80 is gonna be like 2x performance jump

how to disappoint urself 101^

[fallow lance]

cant think of anything else aside from something like a .5 response

[winged birch]

2x performance jump is impossible, they’re innovators not magicians.

[verbal solar]

0.05 RT would be way too sensitive too

and actuation point too

[winged birch]

if you hold it you’d have 1000+ key presses

lol

[foggy kayak]

I come back and all I see is keyboard in your ass

[winged birch]

That’s the standard set by Drxp and doc

[verbal solar]

i don't wanna be rude but atleast your pronouns are true to form

[fallow lance]

what ill expect is a faster response time, probs .5 and more onboard memory for more software shit they add and store on there
probs some revamp with the macros and that

[foggy kayak]

I’m a hater to myself daily. No need to be considerate. I appreciate it though.

[verbal solar]

masochism good

[verbal solar]

its not, i dont even know who bub is

[winged birch]

?

[verbal solar]

abt the OF

[winged birch]

?

[verbal solar]

yeah but this guy implied i would force it inside of him which i wont

[winged birch]

🧢

[verbal solar]

this channel is interesting

[bitter dune]

the one new funtionality i'd expect is to make the pressure meter display(LED) be per-key. The current "touch" rgb profile is global, so if one key is fully pressed the pressure meter becomes pointless. Luckily it's software, so i'd expect this functionaly to become available on all current wooting keyboards.

[verbal solar]

how about we move on

[winged birch]

I think we should indeed:

[sharp verge]

Meh. I'll keep my opinion until more details are revealed

[verbal solar]

my opinion is simple: I dont give a fuck

[winged birch]

It’ll show the pressure per key like we have already I assume

[verbal solar]

that cant be me, that guy still has hair

[bitter dune]

we dont have per-key now, unless i somehow missed the settings, it activates on key press, but considers all keys

[winged birch]

I agree with you here:

[verbal solar]

i am not falling for that

[bitter dune]

so if you have "W" fully pressed, the pressure meter is pointless

[winged birch]

There is an aoe effect that increases by the pressure of a single key right or am I schizo again?

[fallow lance]

yeah we do

[verbal solar]

hahahah schizophrenic

[fallow lance]

also got the effect to show pressure on the 1 - 9 keys

[winged birch]

Schizophrenia is very serious and not funny at all.

[verbal solar]

true

[verbal solar]

i need some food, my brain is dying

here we go again

[winged birch]

buy a new keyboard instead

[verbal solar]

buy me one

[verbal solar]

😭

[winged birch]

You should buy me one

[verbal solar]

u first, i asked nicely

[winged birch]

You have more so you should buy me one instead

If nit

[verbal solar]

you do too

[winged birch]

I have 4

4.5*

[verbal solar]

i only have 6

[winged birch]

You should be taxed

[verbal solar]

fanum tax incoming

[winged birch]

of every keyboard you buy you should give me 27%

If you buy a 60% you keep the 40% and buy me a 20% keyboard

[bitter dune]

just checked, i was talking about the "touch" profile and LED display functionaliy essencially, as Wooting implemented this extra display on the 80HE. The aoe profile is .. "aoe" but has the same issue, pressing "w" will light up a 3x3 block with no further possible modifications.

[winged birch]

Yes I like the ring of that

[verbal solar]

i'll give you a full one if u become a maid in my home

[winged birch]

Paid/unpaid?

[verbal solar]

u get paid in keyboards

[winged birch]

That doesn’t sound bad ngl

Will I get this keyboard though?

[verbal solar]

that one i cant do

ask calder for it

[winged birch]

Hmm, so how’d you like or expect it to behave then?

[winged birch]

ugh

uselessss

tresh player

re

[verbal solar]

fakin nub

enjoy luz

[bitter dune]

activating per specific key, so it would be possible to filter out noise keys. Say if you only want to see the pressure level on "E".. so make the LED only care about the E key for example

[winged birch]

Man I feel like if I buy nitro I hit rock bottom but I kinda want to

[bitter dune]

they do it with actuation level already i think

[verbal solar]

i gave these fuckers over $1000 for nitro so join me

i moved to yearly recently

[winged birch]

exactly that

is what I’m afraid of

[verbal solar]

i only gave them 200 bucks on this account

thought it'd be worse

[winged birch]

You mean like you’d set 1 key and the effect will only ever take into account that one key and ignore all others? For trouble shooting purposes or something else?

[sage reef]

ultimate comparison, the winner will be manufactured

[verbal solar]

all are dogshit

[winged birch]

Oh god you’re a discord tryhard with 30+ alts too huh?

[verbal solar]

i have alts but i had my main accs banned a lot of times

[winged birch]

The only and one, superior to all, undefeated, a keyboard in perfect harmony:

[winged birch]

oh god

[bitter dune]

it would be pretty useful for racing games or some other games like flight sims, where it would be of interest to know the level of the gas/thrust pedal pressed. accelerarion etc. Pluis it would be good to know this level if there are multiple action bound on the same key.. mod tap it's called? i dno, with the 2he i don't need this complexity lol

basically acceleration display directly on the keyboard lol

[winged birch]

I see what you mean, yes! That’d be very useful and a great indication as well.

[verbal solar]

this channel is too dangerous

I should hide it

[winged birch]

But you won’t

[verbal solar]

but i will

[winged birch]

Because you like it dangerous

[verbal solar]

i will

[winged birch]

You won’t

Also because you like to see it, this, perfect perfection in a keyboard:

[winged birch]

Honestly try to suggest it. It’s a great feature to the rgb effect

[winged birch]

He hid it. 😭

[left turtle]

People that like racing games or have wheels or play with a controller … but that’s my idea

This is just a keyboard. Should follow known patterns and users should feel familiar with the interactions … with all the god sent Hall effect and PCB quality from wooting.

[sage reef]

jokes aside, this for real is best

[bitter dune]

fight sims have too many keys for a controller.. i did it with Elite dangerous.. but it was.. an adventure.. i think i count more hours configuring the controllers there than actually playing the game kek

[winged birch]

That’s nothing compared to this:

[hazy cove]

im making my own tkl, with blackjack, and hookers

[bitter dune]

honestly this is such a wasted opportunity

[winged birch]

It’s sad that not many games seem to support analog even after years since the 2HE

[left turtle]

If razer had Hall effect, the new 75 from them would be more appealing than he80 tbh. And I actually may buy this to experiment

(He80) I mean

[winged birch]

Razer comes with included malware that you need to install to change settings.

I’m not a wooting unconditionalist but Razer?!

[covert quiver]

this is what i want, we diamond hands for another year boys

[winged birch]

Yes I do

[foggy kayak]

So the wooting one got it

[winged birch]

How long has that been

[sage reef]

no, TKL is really not it and boring

[winged birch]

Such a bummer

[left turtle]

Totally understand what you are saying … their software is … something else 😂

[covert quiver]

i want the numpad gone but the 80he removed my del and ins key which i want for specific games lul and the (app) key bottom right

[winged birch]

Analog input is great for movement too, not limited to racing

[sage reef]

u get full set of keys and easy to remap

[winged birch]

Yeah, maybe gta6 🤣

[covert quiver]

remap keys sure but it just doesnt have the look, i just want the numpad gone thats it *shrug *, we just wait

[winged birch]

To be fair, most analog animations are literally just slowed down the slower you move.. 😂

[sage reef]

TKL is boring though and too wide

[bitter dune]

i think they said it can be replaced with the (hopefully freely available) "del" key, and they have the same height, so it's no problem. But the fact that wooting thinks the "end" key is more important than the "del" key is.. concerning. 🥲

[left turtle]

Try to enter the bios with an end key

[winged birch]

It’ll ship with all multi media keys included

[left turtle]

😂

[winged birch]

So you can swap them out and remap them

[left turtle]

Who uses stock keycaps anyway Ehehe

[sage reef]

don't really think they think that, it's just kind of non-important thing, and also Home and End are like complementary
and Home is more important than Ins

[winged birch]

I think probably 95% of everyone here

[left turtle]

Really?! Didn’t have that idea from the other sub forums

[winged birch]

Yeah because wooting’s keycaps are not trashy

double shot pbt

not abs like steelseries

[left turtle]

So? Even ducky has double shot pbt

For the price … there’s some minimum expectations

[winged birch]

There’s no higher quality plastic keycaps than doubleshot pbt

It’s just the design you’d want or the color

[left turtle]

I know … don’t understand what’s your point eheh

[winged birch]

That many people still use the stock keycaps because they’re good

only a small group changes the keycaps

[left turtle]

Let me check the wootstations sub forum

[bitter dune]

there is a wooting forum??

[buoyant solstice]

You're in it.

[bitter dune]

oh

discord is cool but not really a proper place to truly unleash the inner RAGE and 50 pages long dramas about what REALLY counts xD

in a keyboard

[winged birch]

Is that in reply to me? 😮

[left turtle]

Exactly 🙂 it’s a keyboard 🙂 who likes it buys it … who doesn’t … there are bazillions options out there

[winged birch]

Not if you want wooting’s software, features and future features and service

future features*

[reef kestrel]

ive seen a lot of people disliking how it looks but i really like how it looks, i feel like it looks really clean

[plucky yarrow]

I just want it to be affordable

[jagged owl]

Hello hello!!

[sharp verge]

It’s better to just wait till more is revealed about this.

[winged birch]

But is this not much clearer though?

[weak ore]

i want wooting services ><

[sage reef]

no people that wanted TKL HE now seeing 80HE will not want to get this, arrow key placement won't matter, just a hyper-focus here that doesn't exist for majority of people outside of discord

[winged birch]

Everyone does

[mellow matrix]

I must say, I was a little thrown off at first. But it has start to grow on me. Now, one thing I probably think is importanay; at least for me. Is that the keyboard comes with a strap even tho it is not used like the other keeboard but is that one thing I find important that Wooting continues to deliver with all there keyboards like a signature think. I think they are crazy cool and I need more! 🦄

[plucky yarrow]

🤔
I wonder if that LED strip is actually a battery level.

[winged birch]

Many gave feedback on the arrow keys’ placement that’s why calder even had mention it

[left turtle]

No one saw a wire right ? 😂

[jagged owl]

Oh my
It's looks
Interesting

[plucky yarrow]

no one saw the thing being plugged in

[kind wasp]

is it wireless?

[plucky yarrow]

We don't know.

Unlikely though

[left turtle]

They didn’t want to show the bottom of the case

😼

[bitter dune]

ohh

[kind wasp]

they showed it

[left turtle]

But it’s wired I guess

[bitter dune]

if the bottom has the 2.4ghz dongle then its wireless

[winged birch]

It isn’t. The angle it is at makes it quite thin, not enough place for a battery.

[sage reef]

the alternative you give is really not as great as you think, the original actually looks better if you just spend more time with it.
that's literally the reason why they did it this way, because that other only way is worse

[kind wasp]

60 looks more tryhard

[plucky yarrow]

This is a fair point. Clearance isn't great.

[weak ore]

the arrowkey looks so off

[winged birch]

It just factually does not look better. I refused to believe that it is an opinion. Humans are driven by symmetry and it literally isn’t.

[jolly tangle]

[weak ore]

heyyy

[ebon sluice]

what does that even mean?

[winged birch]

This however does look factually better:

[sage reef]

now it's like a tetris block getting a nice fit, your alternative is detached tetris block

[kind wasp]

that it looks more like a keyboard that people would use that are good

[left turtle]

Tbh my only grip with the layout is that led strip and wasted space / not aligned keys. But once you start using you just forget about it. Before you buy it you are always very critical. Afterwards you just use it and get use to it

[mellow matrix]

I am affraid that you are right. But I hope Wooting will bring back a TKL in the future. But I love how they try to set some new standards with keyboards. Breaking new grounds. But in the end I think a full fledge Wooting TKL would been a great step. Even tho that they said one could get it from another company. I do not think anyone here would want that. We support Wooting because we love their products. 🤔

[winged birch]

No, it is a tetris block aligned with the grid.

[ebon sluice]

difference in layout is not tryhard, it's just an option

[kind wasp]

the rgb strip looks wrong there

[bitter dune]

the arrow keys block is not only visually ugly, but has literally negative functionality, as it will increase the misclick rate without saving any space. There is a reason they are set apart on a full-size keyboards..

i dno what wooting was thinking, but its a small thingy ultimately

[winged birch]

Please tell me if this was in reply to me. If it’s set in stone 100000% there’s nothing I can do and I will stop sharing my opinion as it doesn’t matter.

[kind wasp]

in my opinion 60% players are more tryhard then the others. There are more people that use 60% to travel with it because its small and dont need it to make home office with it

[left turtle]

The led strip seems it was added there just to fill the negative space of the keyboard.

[weak ore]

its gonna haunt me for life tbh and yea the rgb strip is so out of place

[kind wasp]

just for the more fps

[jolly tangle]

this is a years long project. it looks dope.

[jagged owl]

Ima leave for now
Overwhelmed

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/duck-quack-gif-26493149

I'm just a duck, who works customer support. I can't answer that.

[weak ore]

its like the letter U on my keycap that is a little chipped

[kind wasp]

they should have worked 2 years on it OMEGALUL

[ebon sluice]

not sure how a 60% is tryhard, like any layout it has its pros and cons

[winged birch]

AHHHH I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMOREEE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[jagged owl]

We love Mansen

[weak ore]

i feel like wooting will make it work

[kind wasp]

most gamers play 60% and the others are more for office workers

[winged birch]

Last time I swear. LOOK AT THIS CLEANNEST JUST STRAIGHT PERFECTION IN A KEYBOARD

[weak ore]

like they will account for the feedback and reccomendations and maybe work around it

[fallen epoch]

Quack quack quack 🦆

[weak ore]

wow so im an office worker

[jagged owl]

Is there a link to where I can read all the descriptions to the board? Like what mount and etc?

[sage reef]

no

[left turtle]

Not yet

[jolly tangle]

tirade is brewing something

[jagged owl]

Ok thanks Pedros

[kind wasp]

nah but for what u need the other 40% for gaming. i use 60% so i can travel to lan events easier

[winged birch]

Calder said the offset arrowkeys were there for a reason. But what that reason is he did not reveal yet.

[jagged owl]

Alrighty
Gonna wait for pops

[weak ore]

pcb?

OH

[jolly tangle]

we are not going to tell you hahahahahahahahaha. so many goodies

HA

[jagged owl]

[ebon sluice]

I'm so lost in what you're trying to say. Tryhard is someone who sits at a skatepark with fancy gear and doesn't do anything

[left turtle]

It’s gasket mount

[weak ore]

i feel like im onto something but it doesnt seem quite right

[left turtle]

That’s what we know. It has screw in stabs

[jagged owl]

Oh shi?

[kind wasp]

What?

[jagged owl]

Dead ah?

[winged birch]

a tryhard is someone who tries hard and is very sweaty

[jagged owl]

Interesting

[sage reef]

the reason is aesthetics, the only alternative would be the TSN one, and it looks worse, too formal, less playful, tetris block not fitting nicely

[kind wasp]

u are trolling how can u not know what a tryhard is?

[weak ore]

its no lie that its easier to bring your 60% to lan events but i personally has brought my 110% to a lan so Hahaha

[jolly tangle]

this discord is for all ages

[ebon sluice]

Why is owning a 60% a tryhard? lol wut

[winged birch]

You are either inhuman or trolling, do you not care for symmetry?

[kind wasp]

but its just taking more space and on a lan u dont have so much space often

[kind wasp]

u are no tryhard so u cant rly know

[winged birch]

@fallow lance Are you here still?

[weak ore]

im a trysoft

[sage reef]

trust me, you're just not seeing the actual beauty of current, you're too focused on symmetry, but it's one of those cases when it's worse

[kind wasp]

On lan ur table is very oft small and u will need more space for ur mice so u buy a smaller keyboard

[ebon sluice]

I sweat in a lot of games but never thought for one second that keyboard layout was a contribution

[winged birch]

He means that if you own a 60% keyboard you’re probably gaming intensively with it and therefore trying very hard.

[kind wasp]

thats also why people tilt there keyboard so weird

[fallen epoch]

Me bringing fightsticks to fighting game lans like

[jagged owl]

Hmm I'm not gonna lie
The arrow keys do look a bit off from a perspective. But I still really do like they way it looks. I appreciate it

[weak ore]

FR HAHAHA

its so dumb honestly, it was sticking out of my backpack

[kind wasp]

u prbly never went on a lan

[fallen epoch]

Its a struggle we all go through

[winged birch]

I am right.

[weak ore]

the 20% sticking out of my backpack

[fallen epoch]

Its just saying hello

[sage reef]

you also lose symmetry by doing this btw, the tetris block fitting symmetry that touches the shift key in symmetrical way

[bitter dune]

its ugly lol

[olive coral]

I mean I joined to see if a TKL will be advertised this year, and it wasn't so I just put an order in for a razer tkl. I'll wait to see if Wooting will release more cases since.. well no one else makes a 77.5% case right now
I think the 80HE is fine, I'm just an idiot that uses del, context menu, and insert

[strong wadi]

wooting one he when

[sage reef]

it's only the wide Bezel that makes it more ugly, but still fine

[ebon sluice]

keyboard layout doesn't determine if you're a tryhard or not; plenty of pros still rock TKL's and what not

[weak ore]

i still feel the 80he looks oddly off, cant change my mind

[kind wasp]

how many times u want to post that here?

[winged birch]

It is aligned with the End key, creating a clear destination between the “Main” keys and the “Side” keys. Achieving symmetry and pure perfection.

[winged birch]

Until I am understood.

🥲

[kind wasp]

i understand u

[bitter dune]

i would forgive them if they added another key above the arrow block (the arrow keys "E") but they didn't :S

so its still kinda useless

[sage reef]

but look at that ugly empty space near Ctrl key, it suggestes something of the main section is missing

[ebon sluice]

this is better than your 64% dream boat though. just accept it

[jolly tangle]

you can also buy another uwu if u need more keys

[olive coral]

I am happy to see Mode, I'm a fan of F13 layouts

[kind wasp]

maybe the ones that have much space on the table or the ones that tilt there keyboard

[jagged owl]

I'm not going to say anything

[winged birch]

You say that but it is not much bigger than the original so I don’t really get your point.

[weak ore]

i can see they tried to make it really compact though

[winged birch]

Yessssss

[weak ore]

a compact 80% but the ARROWKEYS are still out of place

[kind wasp]

i wanna paint on that keyboard

[jagged owl]

To me I would prefer the arrows keys to shift to the right just a little bit
But the left arrow is a problem

[olive coral]

I think the 77.5% is weird because TKL people just want that 3 key wide section, while 75% people don't want the wasted space

[sage reef]

vote 1 2 3 4 5

[jagged owl]

But again I don't mind it like this
Already looks good to my opinion

[winged birch]

I prefer 65%, I would love 64% and 80% like that I would love as well. At least I’d buy it instantly if it was like that.

[kind wasp]

whats different from 4 and 5?

[left turtle]

All aligned Ehehe but it’s a 75 🙂

[weak ore]

extend the keyboard, make it so that uparrow is in the middle of end and pgdown

[jagged owl]

Yeah what I meant for it to look like from my pic is 5

[winged birch]

Where’s the strip?

[fallen epoch]

Wheres the uwu on it

[bitter dune]

ha

[kind wasp]

the led looks weird af

[olive coral]

Finally someone gets it
Less wasted space, more keys

[ebon sluice]

sadge, Wooting built you a keyboard in no mans land. 2026 will be your year

[winged birch]

😂😂😂😂🥲🥲🥲🥲

[winged birch]

I don’t really mind it if it’s symmetrical.

[weak ore]

i think ill rather a 65% at this point

[jagged owl]

Yeah I like it a little better but again the left arrow xd

[jolly tangle]

I will personally prevent this with all my might

[weak ore]

cant go wrong

[jolly tangle]

I fight you and debil both at the same time

[jagged owl]

Real

[olive coral]

I'm just sad they named this the 80HE honestly, since it's not an 80%, which feels like we'll neither get a 75% or a 80% in the future either

[sleek pelican]

ive waited long enough for a tkl

[jagged owl]

Just round it up

[olive coral]

78%?

[jolly tangle]

welcome fox

[sleek pelican]

ill just get this and use function keys for missing buttons

[sage reef]

@winged birch damn, no one voted for your choice, sorry

[sleek pelican]

screw it

[kind wasp]

ye

is it 61% xD

[olive coral]

Like I'm happy just getting a different TKL and being in the waiting room again

[winged birch]

Everyone that voted X did. You didn’t even include my choice

[sleek pelican]

wooting adhd

[kind wasp]

couldnt they just do and anonymouse voting on what layout we want?

[jagged owl]

I would buy the 80he if I had the money myself ngl

[olive coral]

Voting would probably be biased to like, this discord

[jagged owl]

I wouldn't mind

[winged birch]

Is anyone that wanted TKL disappointed by the 80%? Like what do you get with TKL and not with 80%, just 4 keys right?

[sage reef]

that's because having light there after moving the keys would look worse and be not needed as much, also since the keys would now take up more of that empty space

[kind wasp]

maybe a oled display xD

[winged birch]

I hope they do

[olive coral]

Yeah, it's not a 80%, I use those keys and have my own case

[kind wasp]

look at the apex pro tkl

they did everything right

[winged birch]

Wrong, you’re on a streak.

[jagged owl]

Well good
Now stop complaining and get your wallets

[kind wasp]

how much?

[winged birch]

I agree for most part. I loved the multimedia of the 2019 version.

[jagged owl]

Man idk
I just got here

[sleek pelican]

its 3 keys p sure

im a bit sad,but ill just use function

[winged birch]

The key that the arrow key replaces as well

[olive coral]

Do people really dislike the light bar?

[sleek pelican]

i dont

[jagged owl]

I'm just visiting and see what's going on

[jagged owl]

I dont

[worthy pine]

i agree, i jsut ordered my 60HE cuz in all fairness this steelseries has a few cons i just dont like abt it

[sleek pelican]

the main complaint is that more keys couldve gone there i think

[left turtle]

It’s more about what’s the practicality of it

[olive coral]

TKL and 75% people confused basically

[winged birch]

I don’t dislike it but from how it looked it is not very diffused. So it’ll prob be sharp light so you’d have to dim it a bit.

[ebon sluice]

I was hoping for 7u WKL and no F13. That shit is sexy albeit stale

[olive coral]

Yeah like it seems reasonable to adjust it

[kind wasp]

i use the older apex pro tkl and isnt it the same as the 2023 version? slightly different design but also 0.1mm

[olive coral]

I'm in favor of F13

[ebon sluice]

13 is an unlucky number, ya gonna drop dead pressing it

[olive coral]

I play SC2 and I like the more compact function keys

But that's probably also a minority opinion

[kind wasp]

but rapid trigger

[glad fable]

I kinda wish the 80he had a middle usb port since it'd look nicer :v

[sleek pelican]

whats sc2?

[jolly tangle]

star craft 2

omg

[sage reef]

was wooting the first with rapid trigger too? meaning steelseries didn't even think this far in 2018

[sleek pelican]

oh ok

[ebon sluice]

agree, agree

[sleek pelican]

oh ok

[olive coral]

star citizen 2

[sleek pelican]

oh ok

[sage reef]

rapid trigger definitely the actual selling point for these keyboards (before additional needs of analog)

[kind wasp]

are the people with the wooting team role workers of wooting??

or just random dc mods

[weak ore]

some of them work cs

comical society

[jolly tangle]

to be fair there are a few orange people who helped in the customer support recently

so you could have seen their names

[kind wasp]

Emily helped me to cancel my order

[weak ore]

hii emily

oh nevermind i fell asleep before emily appeared on stream

[karmic flax]

Does the Wooting 80HE pcb have the same thickness as the 60HE 1.6mm? I only ask because of costum stabilizers.

[kind wasp]

bro what?

[weak ore]

OH ITS CALDER with his superior headset

[kind wasp]

u are supporting the support 💪

[weak ore]

sadly i didnt get to see anders last night

[left turtle]

Actually good question. Have some tx screw ins for 1.6mm

[kind wasp]

how much into wooting are u?

u have signatures from all workers?

[fallow spire]

80HE has 85 keys.

[weak ore]

im fine, i just feel like their work culture there feels really chill lol, would love to work with them if i ever had a chance

[buoyant solstice]

GO TO BED CALDER

[jolly tangle]

calder

hahahaha

[buoyant solstice]

[fallow spire]

It’s morning here

[buoyant solstice]

Not when you were up all night already! 😛

[weak ore]

thats so much typing and deleting xD

[left turtle]

Where are you from @fallow spire

[fallow spire]

Wasn’t sure if I should respond to somebody mentioning 77.5%

[kind wasp]

i cant understand how people buy other keyboards instead of wooting

[jolly tangle]

will you tell the hot question to the people why you made that arrow alignment. its a very hot topic

[weak ore]

yes please talk about it

[kind wasp]

he made that?

[left turtle]

60,75,80% it’s about the number of keys not a reference width compared to something else

[jolly tangle]

he owns the company.

[kind wasp]

who made that sick rgb strip

[weak ore]

the more i went to paint 3d to depict how i would've preferred the arrowkey alignment, the more i feel backwards

[kind wasp]

he prbly rich af

sold the same stuff for 5 years and still on top of all others

[weak ore]

depends on what you consider rich i guess

but hes on his way there, no doubt

[kind wasp]

networth over 750k google says so

[weak ore]

sorry, they're*

[kind wasp]

ohMyOats

[fallow spire]

It’s not what it looks like on final. We’re refining it, it’ll be much more diffused but we added small blocks to separate in 10 steps

[weak ore]

just really happy when i see a company i like put in the effort into making new products and make it :D

[fallow spire]

This makes it very clear and allows it to communicate in different ways

[weak ore]

good morning

[kind wasp]

i meant sick i typed wrong sry xD

[fallow spire]

Goodnight mansen, now you better get some sleep

[weak ore]

lemme wake you up with a "does the he+ work with plate mounted stabilizers"

[ebon sluice]

sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs paralyze

[jolly tangle]

calder are you sticking around for some more questions 😛

[weak ore]

is he actually mansen or anders

[buoyant solstice]

Both

[weak ore]

what do you prefer people call you

[buoyant solstice]

Either is fine.

[tranquil void]

Iets anders

[weak ore]

nice xD

i was so ready for the quiz last night till i fell asleep

[hexed dawn]

thomas anders

[bitter dune]

i got 3 out of 10 questiuns >.>

[kind wasp]

i overslept the whole livestream

[tranquil void]

can't wait until I can have that 80HE tbh

[weak ore]

i was like listening to how many switches they lubed that year etc

[tranquil void]

more useful than 60HE but I think nicer than tkl?

Ive always said TKL is a wasteful layout and this is a little bit less wasteful

[ebon sluice]

too much focus on the arrow cluster, this is the money shot https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1186265045227802714/1190323756913139783/80HE_Flex_1.png?ex=65a16262&is=658eed62&hm=1ddd2353fdf21fdbbcb4763bc036e37234348bbb82539f12c28391104977229f&

[fallow spire]

Not sure what to do with the entire sentiment around the layout.

On the one side I understand the disappointment, if you’re intimately familiar with a triangle and square shape, and you’re waiting for the Wooting triangle or square shape, and it’s a rectangular shape, you’re initially disappointed.

People start to pick the best things of the triangle shape and square shape, compare it with the worse of the rectangular shape. Just can’t wrap your head around it.

You can argue the days about the look of the layout, but nobody has used it yet.

[tranquil void]

Calder,
if you ever decide to make a 60HE with a numpad

Full on the lips man

no but

[weak ore]

the only thing that i understand from the layout is that its a really compact 80%

[tranquil void]

That would probably be my dream

[sleek pelican]

i dont understand the layout

[bitter dune]

"60" he+ numpad would probably be fire

[sleek pelican]

its good enough for me personally

[tranquil void]

it's TKL but one column less

[tranquil void]

Yesss

[weak ore]

yeah so its pretty much a 75%?

[jolly tangle]

I think it looks dope. I think the strap is like the wooting accent. if it was for only me I would have added it 😄

[fallow spire]

Update those renders yeah, we made an oopsie with the focus on top down. It’s honestly the ugliest shot you can take.

[tranquil void]

I never miss the Frow on my 60HE, never miss the actual arrows
Only thing is the numpad

[fallow spire]

And you’re right, that is the best angle

[kind wasp]

just use the same layout that the apex pro tkl has. people who dont want many keys buy the 60HE and people who want more then 60% gonna buy the tkl which has a lot more keys dont try to make a hybrid of 60% and tkl

[weak ore]

im really stressing how do i play a tkl kb game on a 60%

[hexed dawn]

I think it looks ugly and I can't wrap my head around why making an odd duck like this if a 2HE with the numpad cut off would have made pretty much everyone happy

[jolly tangle]

V you should read mod chat

[ebon sluice]

the side and front details are nice. had it been a wedge I would've punched my pet kangaroo on the nose

[fallow spire]

It’s just needed an f row and arrow keys, that’s exactly what it has.

I’m not sure what the further complaint is? People live fine with less keys on 75% and don’t complain about the less keys lol

[kind wasp]

like it too but the only downsite is it looks very big from above

[left turtle]

i'm not super eager for the keyboard tbh ... i may end up buying it to test, but from a buy process perspective, it failed to give me the initial emotion to buy it 😄 lets see how thing go from here.

but this is very personal

[tranquil void]

To an extent, big is only an issue if the design isn't right

[fallow spire]

The larger top is masked by the Keycaps. You look at it from a front angle, and it actually makes it look in balance.

We also needed that space to make the design, gasket, and daughterboard work.

[kind wasp]

When i saw the Teaser i first thought of the tkl like the apex pro tkl because thats just what tkl meant for me. i am not so much into keyboards if its wrong its just my stpd head that this layout means tkl and nothing different.

[weak ore]

gasket

[jolly tangle]

Why did you opt for a gasket mount and not something else 🙂

[worthy solstice]

I think you'll be able to get any layout anywhere.

[ebon sluice]

gasket >> everything else imo

[kind wasp]

i wanna try out the gasket. it sounds really premium

[fallow spire]

It’s not unreasonable but I’m trying to figure out if people are just responding to something being different or responding on it being actually functionally bad.

[weak ore]

GASKET GOOD

GASKET 60HE when :D

[tranquil void]

I'd say different
In a week or two we'll find out the actual opinions

[ebon sluice]

anniversary edition 60HE someday

10k a pop

[weak ore]

you have my monies on preorder

[kind wasp]

i mean u could use the space between the arrow keys better instead of an rgb. some gimmick would be cool like a mute switch or something a little extra function to play with.

[quartz trellis]

oh, so there's a daughter board... And i was wondering how this design's going to work. Anyways, my question however is simple, Calder. What is the RGB bar for? Does it have any important function?

[tranquil void]

it'd look very crammed and would give little visual distinction for the arrow keys

[hazy cove]

it just seems like a strange compromise imo

[fallow spire]

With every keyboard I noticed that keys around a screw always sound more pale/stiff. Gasket eliminates this entirely.

In addition, with how we made it using the pad for gasket instead of plate or pcb, allows us to modify it for different gasket mounting methods

[kind wasp]

it has a function?

[jolly tangle]

hot

[bitter dune]

in my opinion, the reason to get a 60%> is to get more keys, not more bezels with an LED. ugly or not.

[weak ore]

hows the comparison between friction mount and gasket mount though

[tranquil void]

will the spacebar finally sound closer to the rest of the keys

[winged birch]

😭

[kind wasp]

gasket is premium
