[slate zodiac]

but i dont like it

[polar girder]

Yeah

[thorn zealot]

yeah sounds super muted

cuz of all ur foam and tape

[knotty iron]

It's an acquired taste, but I really grew to like them

I got a Holy60 Polycarbonate and Holy60 Black Anodized

[harsh dove]

Oh damn nice

[slate zodiac]

its amazing that u can literally hear it

[harsh dove]

But yeah $350 kinda high

[slate zodiac]

sometimes i dont even feel a diference

[thorn zealot]

not muted as in u cant hear it

maybe shouldve said super dampened/dead

[stone flax]

doesnt sound clacky to me

[slate zodiac]

u think this like dampened, dead will help to achieve a little bit the thock

[thorn zealot]

idk i dont rly like/go for "thock"

[slate zodiac]

whats ur preference?

[thorn zealot]

brighter sound

[calm pulsar]

damn 350 sounds crazy, you'd be paying a ton for spacebars, numpad which you dont need at all

maybe its a normal price for that set but still

[polar girder]

Yeah I mean especially since what Arc just said lol

Just need base + blackout

[harsh dove]

Yeah I was gonna mention that too, not like you need/want the other kits

[calm pulsar]

maybe later there will be other listings

[slate zodiac]

sometimes my spacebar does like 2 spaces, someone knows why this happen?¿ç

[untold sigil]

Linkkkk?

[calm pulsar]

maybe you should remove rapid trigger on it and also set a lower actuation point

to avoid extra sensitivity on it

[slate zodiac]

i dont have rapid trigger on it and i have it on 0.8

but soometimes keeps doing like 2 spaces, maybe its me idk

[calm pulsar]

you just typed 2 o's, maybe it is you

I mean similar happens to me sometimes

[slate zodiac]

hahahahhahhah probably my fingers are thrash when its about to write xDDD

[sweet oak]

Chat i ran out of stuff i wanted to buy

Its doomsday

[calm pulsar]

buy me some rare sealed ps2 games

[sweet oak]

I can buy some unsealed

[polar girder]

Damn that’s sick!

[sweet oak]

For like 20 a pop depending on game

[calm pulsar]

yeah unsealed are relatively easy to find even here, but I also got some sealed ones hehe

[slate zodiac]

thats only a keycap?

[calm pulsar]

matte hawk tuah

[sacred elm]

buy me keycaps

[slate zodiac]

like whats the point on buying this type of keycaps? just to know, like for aesthetic¿

[sacred elm]

[calm pulsar]

ofc, aesthetics are also part of custom keyboard building

[polar girder]

Yes one lone keycap

[tawdry tree]

No linkkkkkk, they aren’t available outside Asia yet.

[polar girder]

OoS

[slate zodiac]

but this keycap dont have any special and difference to others instead of the way it looks¿?

[sweet oak]

Nu uh i gotta get some too

[calm pulsar]

yeah just a fancier shape/material
might sound different due to that, but usually you put them on like esc or other keys on corners/edges

[slate zodiac]

mhh i see, yeah i saw it sometimes on videos

[calm pulsar]

in some keycap sets there are also novelties, which are normal caps, just have some kind of icon or unique word on them

like the cherries here and the Cherry enter

[slate zodiac]

Like this on the shift

[calm pulsar]

yeah

[harsh dove]

Oh word, wanna buy me a camera?

[harsh dove]

Is that a hawk tuah keycap?

[polar girder]

It would appear so.

[harsh dove]

I'm just tryna be like the kids of today yanno

Gotta keep up with the terms

[stone flax]

i need my duhawks

[sweet oak]

For me right? For my birthday

[calm pulsar]

yeah you buy it for him and he will surely give it to you on your birthday Kappa

[trail bane]

You can buy this for me and I’ll send you 3910pcs like a birthday present

[sweet oak]

Sure i just need you to take a loan out for me

[calm pulsar]

oh no I want to make a joke but I wont

[stone flax]

@sacred elm get ur church together to buy

Only 1 dollar per switch

[harsh dove]

No for me, for my birthday

[trail bane]

If everyone on the server sends $1, we’ll have the opportunity to monopolize these switches and sell them for even more.

[trail bane]

Even now, 4 pieces on AliExpress cost around $12.

[harsh dove]

You could make $12,000 at that price

[magic walrus]

Anyone tried the glorious Classic black basic keycaps?

[trail bane]

We could make*

👀

[stone flax]

bad

[magic walrus]

Shit Why exactly

[stone flax]

Glorious

[magic walrus]

[magic walrus]

Ye but in Not wealthy enaugh

[magic walrus]

Better than the glorious ones?

[trail bane]

I’m too poor to buy just keycaps for $100—unless, of course, they’re Cerakeys.

[magic walrus]

Cerakeys are nuts

[fluid ravine]

Get me Frog Mini Leggera G Silver

[low thistle]

Hello I'm back here after a while! Been using my 80HE and it's been great! I'm looking at getting the GT-80 but was wondering if anyone here has them yet?

[fluid ravine]

[magic walrus]

The glorious ones are looking very good for the Price but i have no spacebar soundtest

[little glen]

Yup i have a gt80

[low thistle]

Oh really? I just have some questions about some color options and finish

[low thistle]

[little glen]

Caught me at the perfect time as i was going to sleep soon

[harsh dove]

[fluid ravine]

[low thistle]

[fluid ravine]

[harsh dove]

Damn son you baller

[harsh dove]

I'm poor

[fluid ravine]

Meh meh meh

[low thistle]

[fluid ravine]

You live in your PC case with your 4090 as a bed

[harsh dove]

I forgot who even said that

[calm pulsar]

Tuan

[little glen]

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1342211699234832485 for pictures

[fluid ravine]

Whos that

[harsh dove]

Ah that's right

[little glen]

I have not noticed it being fingerprinty at all

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/how-it-feels-when-you-meme-nanami-jjk-gif-10683277372535996893

[little glen]

But i also dont eat chips at my desk so your mileage may vary

[fluid ravine]

I could never

[low thistle]

Thanks!

[calm pulsar]

actually it was smoe guy with blue discord profile pic lol

[fluid ravine]

My venom sounds thoccy, you should ask me abt it

[harsh dove]

cemal I think

[fluid ravine]

Jamal?

[little glen]

There is also a sound test in there with a bunch of mods, i have also previously posted sound tests here before some of those mods

[fluid ravine]

Dyslexia hitting

[harsh dove]

Gibraltar

[little glen]

If you want to see direct comparison

[low thistle]

The gray looks a lot lighter than the rendered image on the website...

hnmm

[fluid ravine]

Gigatron?

[little glen]

That is lighting tbh

[calm pulsar]

Gateron?

[low thistle]

true

[fluid ravine]

Garberon

[little glen]

Its maybe a bit brighter but the newer pictures were taken in sunlight so itll appear bright no matter what there

[little glen]

Ooh husband… We are now homeless… You spent too much money on GMK Keycaps…

[kind helm]

is that AI

wait no the background too good

wait idk

[calm pulsar]

never seen that meme?

[kind helm]

i am detached

[harsh dove]

Idunno if I'm supposed to laugh or not

[warped tendon]

foolish wench, these are an investment and will make for a great inheritance

[harsh dove]

Same

[little glen]

I‘m just gonna keep my wootstation thread open indefinitely by posting in it whenever i change something about the board

Duhuks will be my next opportunity to do it

[low thistle]

one last question, hopefully im not bothering you. does it attarct fingerprints and smudges? I saw a youtube video about it being mentioned

[little glen]

Oh yeah @harsh dove did you try the pingless springs unlubed yet?

[harsh dove]

Yeah, I did

I like em

Nice and dry

[kind helm]

unlubed

sinner

[harsh dove]

They not bad , I swear

[calm pulsar]

I mean it's their selling point

[little glen]

I have not had such issues but that may change depending on the coatint you get or what you do around your desk like eating etc

[low thistle]

yeah. that's good to hear. i'm looking at getting the anodized gray then so I have some contrast on my desk

[little glen]

I dont eat at my desk so i dont get grease other than my natural skin grease on it

[little glen]

[harsh dove]

mmh natural skin grease

[little glen]

So i‘ll probably do the same tbh

Feeling a bit lazy

[harsh dove]

Lmk your experience

[little glen]

I honestly couldnt tell you if its good or bad, i have little experience lubing and all that

[low thistle]

Damn. Also doesn't sound that far off...

[kind helm]

IDC

[low thistle]

compared to when i got my 80HE lol

[chrome plover]

okays o im home

[little glen]

Ik how to do a stab good by now but anything else

[chrome plover]

i can’t swap the plate bc the one i got doesn’t have the same as the stock wooting

the one on the left is the one i got from website the one on the right has like those protrustions

[sweet oak]

Bro this gonna be the biggest birthday list I’ll never get fulfilled

[chrome plover]

does anyone know what i should do 😓

[calm pulsar]

install standoffs

[chrome plover]

what r stand offs

[trail bane]

A setup that raises more questions than answers (I’m just in a dorm, and someone stole my desk._.)

[chrome plover]

how do i do that

[harsh dove]

Oh, I find myself usually pretty sensitive to spring ping/crunch, and I think these are pretty good

[chrome plover]

these r the screws i was given

[little glen]

👍 i‘ll take your word for it

[chrome plover]

R none of them stand offs

[little glen]

I mean worst case i just go back and lube them all after

[harsh dove]

Never?!

[little glen]

Good opportunity to watch some northernlion highlight videos while lubing

[sweet oak]

I’m a broke boi

[kind helm]

https://divinikey.com/products/kbdfans-m-2-countersunk-standoff-screw-kit think these should work, someone confirm me though

[harsh dove]

Broke is just a mindset not a condition

[calm pulsar]

weird the plate cutter didnt send you those

[chrome plover]

i got none?

none of those r standoffs?

[kind helm]

or get them through aliexpress

[chrome plover]

[sweet oak]

I’ve been looking at the world so blindly then

Time to buy a 50k camera

[chrome plover]

damn those r out of stock

[kind helm]

should probably flip through the packages and stuff and check

most of the time they do include them

[harsh dove]

Yeah these work

[chrome plover]

no thats all i got

i opened every single thing

[calm pulsar]

might have been an option for added cost

[little glen]

Anyway wish me luck everybody i gotta get up at like 6 tomorrow for the first time in over a month and i‘ve been waking up around 12 during that time

[harsh dove]

Now you see clearly

[chrome plover]

and this

i forgot to mention

[sweet oak]

the wallet is gone~

[kind helm]

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256801915997460.html? takes awhile to get though

nvm also out of stock

[chrome plover]

what is that tho the one i sent

r they still not the right things

[kind helm]

mainly you need this

[chrome plover]

so these r still not it

rip

ok ill order some

[calm pulsar]

bro this is just a screw

[chrome plover]

o

it looked like the picture above

[stone flax]

Just use standoffs

[chrome plover]

LOL

sorry im new to this

is there any link u guys suggest off amazon

[chrome plover]

ill just order off there

[stone flax]

What kinda plate vendor doesnt give options for standoffs

💔

[chrome plover]

jts from some place called toronto keys

and i emailed them and they said

[kind helm]

@tropic urchin your favorite vendor

[harsh dove]

https://kbdfans.com/products/kbdfans-m2-3-countersunk-flat-head-screw-kit

[kind helm]

LMAO

[sacred elm]

there should definitely be standoffs

tf

[chrome plover]

ty

no thats all the shit i got unfortunatrly

[harsh dove]

Np

[calm pulsar]

you probably have to pay extra for them on the order page

[chrome plover]

lmao they said “u get standoffs and put then with the pcb and plate”

like i knew what that meant

[high sphinx]

Hey do you guys know the mm studio M6lite+ keyboard ? https://youtu.be/lfXhhFcFmn8?si=pH0Yxcq_cqSVF4Pt

[kind helm]

thats so weird, they have that on kbdfan site but not ali or divinikey

shipping expensive af

[stone flax]

Fuck no

Dont get that

[chrome plover]

how many should i order

[harsh dove]

You really only need 1 kit

[chrome plover]

kk

[kind helm]

why does it say 異次元, thats like "other dimension"

tf

[high sphinx]

I have a venom so i wont but why you say it like that does it suck ?

[calm pulsar]

you just built your frog mini😭

[stone flax]

Mm studio notorious for abandoning

• shit software

[kind helm]

its a cheap chinese board as cam would say

[harsh dove]

what

lol

[calm pulsar]

lmaooo aint no way

[high sphinx]

Yeah i am just wondering dw i am not buying it

[stone flax]

Keyboard gives more fps 😨

[magic walrus]

@stone flax i think ill get the glorious ones and Save all my Money to get a kbd Fans holy60

[stone flax]

L move ngl

[chrome plover]

okay

i got one order

[stone flax]

Holy60 hollow traymount

[chrome plover]

7.50 dollar shipping

[high sphinx]

I see thank you i am still curious about the gateron pcb tho and someone who tests it tho

[chrome plover]

[kind helm]

delay looks good though

[magic walrus]

Why

[chrome plover]

so i gotta wait like two weeks before i can even use my keyboard

[kind helm]

thats the site saying "welcome to keyboard modding"

[stone flax]

Dis + gloros kinda blows

[chrome plover]

LMAO

[stone flax]

All oem anyways

[chrome plover]

7.50 SHIPPING FOR ONE SCREW

LIKE IM GONNA KMS

IDK WHY IT DIDNT COME WITH IT

[stone flax]

@harsh dove shouldn’t torontokeebs stuff come with standoffs?

[high sphinx]

Yeah so i was wondering if its any good

[kind helm]

honestly if toronto people didn't include it then you should tell them to send extra to you

[magic walrus]

Whats wrong with traymount the case is so good and the caps are Not Bad ether ngl

[harsh dove]

Damn bro Beast Mode

[kind helm]

since its their fuck up

[harsh dove]

Idk I never ordered from them tbh

I got mine off Ali

and they come with standoffs

[stone flax]

Case not good + traymount stiff/uneven + gloros is just rebranded oem stuff

[stone flax]

L toronto

[chrome plover]

Let me email them again

[stone flax]

Holy60 is the same cost as salvation 😭

[chrome plover]

they were useless af to help me

they didnt give me standoffs or nothing just random screws

[sacred elm]

latency doesnt matter these days because every keyboard has sub 1ms, that keyboard has shitty ass software and devs will abandon it in a month probably

[harsh dove]

huh?

[kind helm]

someone still waiting for their 80he alu plate hehe

[magic walrus]

Tofu 60 redux is also traymount

[stone flax]

119 v 100

[magic walrus]

I would pay 30€ for decent keycaps

[harsh dove]

oh for the random b stock

[kind helm]

the 119 one is definitely gonna be better right?!

[stone flax]

Tofu redux and holy60 are not the only case options out there, wooting is gh60/dz60 compatible

[chrome plover]

ty for the help guys

[high sphinx]

Alright i see do you know if someone had tested the gateron pcb ?

[sacred elm]

I havent seen

[stone flax]

Bilibili will be first in assume

[harsh dove]

Well you get to choose color and A stock

[kind helm]

i am still slightly sad about that tbh

[magic walrus]

Yes but im just saying i dont See the Problem with Tray Mount if u Burger Mount it

[harsh dove]

Sad about Holy or Salvation?

[stone flax]

Ehh

[kind helm]

turningtest's were perfect at 100 dolla while i spent 300 on it

[stone flax]

Not at all da same thing imo

[high sphinx]

What or who is bilibili ?

[harsh dove]

Did you get full kit for $300?

[thorn zealot]

its chinese yt

[stone flax]

China social media

[kind helm]

just the case, i brought the pcb later

[thorn zealot]

basically

[high sphinx]

Oh ok ty

[harsh dove]

$300 for case only is kinda crazy ngl

[kind helm]

its better than youtube

[harsh dove]

I paid $220 for full kit

[kind helm]

bilibili is so goated

[thorn zealot]

prob is

[magic walrus]

Im looking for good visuals and Sound. If the board isnt as flexi i dont care tbh im just grinding valorant and stuff

[kind helm]

thank you for telling me so i can feel extra sad

[thorn zealot]

holy60 sounds like hollow shit

[stone flax]

Holy60 sound blows in my opinion

⛓️‍💥

Idk

traymount bad

End of ted talk

[kind helm]

no pre roll ads + control for 4:3 and 16:9 switching when you watch some old stuff + comments that show up within the video(togglable) (a feature i think first created by a japanese site)

[harsh dove]

tbf I'm pretty sure it was a Black Friday deal or sumn

[kind helm]

i wish youtube can get on that

[harsh dove]

Anytime I get a good deal on something I just assume it was black friday

[calm pulsar]

do they got pewdiepie on there

[magic walrus]

Na if i would Go for Best typing experience and stuff i wouldnt Go for a Wooting anyways i have no Problem with tray mount cases

[kind helm]

nah

[calm pulsar]

thats what I thought

[kind helm]

didn't pewdiepie retire or something

[stone flax]

💔

Yo money

[kind helm]

i haven't watch his content in a while

[harsh dove]

Nah he still makes videos

[calm pulsar]

just makes vids about his life mostly, vlogs

[magic walrus]

Lets be real for typing he switches are Not the best

[calm pulsar]

that is the truest truth

MX on top

[magic walrus]

But i love Wooting as a Brand so much

[stone flax]

Doesnt mean u cant make the rest of the experience be good

i love duhuks

[kind helm]

honestly i didn't know how hard he worked until i see another youtuber try to do daily upload and talked about his experience.

[high sphinx]

Does the gateron pcb have web based software ?

[kind helm]

ew

[magic walrus]

Ye u r right but the mount is the least Important for me as someone who is just grinding valo

[magic walrus]

?

[kind helm]

:3

[calm pulsar]

any wooting patriots in chat

[magic walrus]

Maybe

[kind helm]

just a knee jerk reaction.

[magic walrus]

Pfft hahaha

[harsh dove]

Wooting on Top

[tawdry tree]

It’s decent afaik. Very latency focused. MMStudio were the ones to develop the latency tester for HE boards as well.

[stone flax]

Holy moly

[stone flax]

Ur studio ice ultra

[kind helm]

where the maxxers at, time to hop off wooting

[stone flax]

this will clear poms

[tawdry tree]

surelyyy

[harsh dove]

Wooting Benom Maxxer

[magic walrus]

Ill Go to bed now and tomorow i Install those geon raws

[kind helm]

wrong pcb but correct switches

[magic walrus]

Bro what u have against wooting

[kind helm]

nothing hehe

[magic walrus]

U want to Flame any other peripherals

[stone flax]

3.0 kinda bad

[magic walrus]

Bro what u want

[round sparrow]

damn

[magic walrus]

Why

[sacred elm]

Give him a break

[stone flax]

surface catches dust easy and is pretty scratchy

[kind helm]

what the fuck is this?

on youtube

[stone flax]

4.0 and other glass is nicer

i can not go back to my 3.0

painful experience 😓

[calm pulsar]

I hate glass

as a material

[magic walrus]

Tried Both and u right but 3.0 is Slower and i like it for valo

[stone flax]

glass keyboard

;0

[magic walrus]

Thx

[magic walrus]

Lmao

[calm pulsar]

worse than cerakeys

[round sparrow]

cement keyboard enjoyer

[magic walrus]

Good Night

[magic walrus]

…

[high sphinx]

Ah i did not know they made a he tester

[kind helm]

40% ortho, this looks like its the size of my hand

[stone flax]

Aaaaaaaaa

[stone flax]

This the duhukfrog

?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[stone flax]

yun

[kind helm]

frog duhuk

[kind helm]

wireless mice just makes it look so clean

[calm pulsar]

ortho thock

[tawdry tree]

Yeah, seems like latency and accuracy are their only goals lol

don’t think they offer anything unique feature wise

[high sphinx]

Yea and it seems they abandon quick

[tawdry tree]

SU68 maybe, I never bought it.

It’s not like the board stops working the moment they abandon but it’s kinda a dick move.

especially for those that just bought it.

(it’s still getting sold 💀)

[high sphinx]

Exactly the only he pcb i am curious about now is the gateron one tbh

[polar girder]

Bro found the perfect angle

lol

Looks good

[tawdry tree]

now gateron might just be the only company I’d have less trust in than mmstudio lmfao

[high sphinx]

Really ?

Why is that ?

[tawdry tree]

It seems fine so far but the only switches they “officially” support are their own. I also don’t think they developed the board and soft/firmware themselves

[harsh dove]

lmao right, thanks

[tawdry tree]

it is quite waterproof though, so that’s cool ig

https://youtube.com/shorts/7lxp1UJ_i2o

[kind helm]

it says best heat treatment plan

LMAO

[tawdry tree]

https://tenor.com/view/adam-jensen-deus-ex-deus-ex-human-revolution-human-revolution-deus-ex-mankind-divided-gif-17648135389382160139

[high sphinx]

Yeah but it will probably also work with ttc no ? Like geon also have no ttc switch in switch sekector but it works

[tawdry tree]

first watercooled HE board

holyyy

[tawdry tree]

Yeah probably

Any switch with the same or almost the same flux as gateron’s will work

just that they don’t officially support them

and I doubt that they ever will tbh

[sacred elm]

am i only one who thinks that it will be absolute joke of a pcb

what are those specs💀

[tawdry tree]

it seems fine so far

[calm pulsar]

yes

gateron on top

[sacred elm]

real

[tawdry tree]

haven’t seen proper tests of it yet though

[sacred elm]

software probably blows

and those specs are definitely fake

[high sphinx]

I dont know i think it will be good like the jade pros they are also a good switch so i think they know what they are doing nit sure tho i will have to wait and see

[sacred elm]

its easier to make a switch

than a whole pcb

[high sphinx]

Yeah that is true

[calm pulsar]

=\

oops cleaning keybord

[sacred elm]

=\

[high sphinx]

But also look at wl mouse first everyone tought it was a scam now huge competitor

[tawdry tree]

their he board is funny af

seems like they just applied the mouse logic of lighter is better

carbon fiber case

for $300

💀

[sacred elm]

850g💀

[tawdry tree]

😂

[sacred elm]

crazy overpriced

[high sphinx]

Yeah i wal talking about their mice first everyone thought it was just a shit finalmouse clone but its actually good

[tawdry tree]

china = bad

[sacred elm]

finalmouse better because you are getting finalboy signature on a box (who cares)

[high sphinx]

Well i am just trying to spay that u should not underestimate a company but well we dont know anything about the gateron pcb so we will just have to wait and see maybe its bad maybe its good u never know

[tawdry tree]

you can see the enthusiasm fade with each one lmao

[sacred elm]

different signature on every box👍

[tawdry tree]

is their module thing out already?

[sacred elm]

What module

[tawdry tree]

like the finalmouse pcb

[sacred elm]

this?

[tawdry tree]

yeah but just the pcb

[sacred elm]

ah idk

[tawdry tree]

hmm

I thought it was going to be a product

:(

yeah falcon module

they are planning to make it a product

(per optimum, 2 months ago)

I’d buy

[sacred elm]

interesting

[kind helm]

maybe the worst video idea bro had

[stone flax]

Cant wait for my ulx to arrive

[calm pulsar]

building a board with an 80he user pog

[kind helm]

thats so mean and makes me so happy

Nothing

Its literally just an mx2a ergo clear

[kind helm]

thats kinda what i think too, the idea is the same.

[calm pulsar]

in HE communiy we love the same switches with different colors

[mighty walrus]

Hey, everyone. Haven't been here in a while, but saw something cool yesterday. Anyone seen these HE switches with rubber domes for tactility? https://keyboardtreehouse.com/products/raeds-he

[tawdry tree]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[mighty walrus]

Interesting design. Have you compared them to an HHKB, or other topre keyboard?

[prime orbit]

It will be but not after people like optimum and PMM use it. So probably next year + year of delay so 2027

[tawdry tree]

:(

[prime orbit]

Optimum mouse and PMM mouse won’t be delayed

I think if FM wants any type of credibility back

They won’t make those people spending lots of money to use the module be waiting

But for us regular people

The pcb will def be delayed

😭

[harsh dove]

Nah I haven't

[stone flax]

Weaker domes

[mighty walrus]

Which one? @stone flax

[jaunty grove]

Hi guys, can someone explain me the difference between raw he’s, ttc poms and ttc rgbs? I wanted to get one of those switches for my keyboard. Does it sound different? And does it have any different functionality or something?

[paper bloom]

It does have different sound

And weight

Initial force to end force depending on wat u get

[steel ibex]

Is there a difference between the foam the pc switch plate comes with and the stock foam

[tulip rapids]

who even is that?

[steel ibex]

Why does my board sound so ass all of a sudden

Like

These two switche sound so bad

And this is me just typing

[thorn zealot]

Idk all the switches sound the same

[ripe tulip]

with front badge or not and which color do you buy

[steel ibex]

Maybe bad mic

But two keys sound super plasticly and unstable

And cheap

[thorn zealot]

What switches

[steel ibex]

ttc koms

lubed

pc switch plate

[thorn zealot]

Not the rgb/poms ones?

[steel ibex]

idk the wooting poms

theres smth wrong with my board

or multiple things actually

whenever i go to the profile i use for games and i press e it puts in multiple inputs

[thorn zealot]

Can u send a vid of ur switches

To see wobble

[steel ibex]

wdym by vid

[thorn zealot]

I can’t help now cuz ima hit the zzzs

[thorn zealot]

U said they sounded plasticky and unstable

I wanted to see if there was like physical wobble

[steel ibex]

i dont mean like wobble

ok ig tachyon mode is just broken

[thorn zealot]

Oh alr

I mean I’ve heard ttcs sound kinda plasticky

Not that bad

Maybe u lubed lightly and it weared off?

U can wait for other ttc users for help

Ima hit my zz

[steel ibex]

i mean i can relube sure

i just lubed the stems on all

and i lubed pretty heawvily

[harsh dove]

Damn that’s some bald type shi

[harsh dove]

No badge, no strap, and silver

[steel ibex]

i lubed a week ago thoi

[stone flax]

Duhuks coming soon

Ready for peak

[fluid ravine]

yurrrrrrrrrrrr

better get your spare springs or lube

[jaunty grove]

Can I get a sound check if you guys don’t mind?

[ionic breach]

https://youtu.be/xk40zeBtDPw

[kind helm]

not soon enough

[little glen]

God damn i checked the duhuks on ali to link it to someone and the new customer discount is crazy

Almost 50% off

I honestly hope they dont come today or tomorrow

[glacial wind]

that's how it is for a lot of stuff on aliexpress, it's why so many people try to do the aliexpress new customer abuse

you can get an entire set of jade pros for like $5 if you repeat new customer deals for example

[little glen]

I dont think i ever got a new customer discount 😭

[glacial wind]

only thing is if you do it too much then aliexpress flags you and perm ban lol

[little glen]

First thing i ordered on ali was from kbdfans so i never got a discount

[glacial wind]

i can't remember what I used my first order discount on, i'd assume it was switches of some sort

it's interesting that you can guess that each new aliexpress customer is worth like $10+ to them for lifetime value based on how much discount they give for first order

[little glen]

I think it‘s just marketing

If you can get enough people to use it and tell their friends about it

Then those friends might not use a discount

Gotta collect enough customers to reach a critical mass

[glacial wind]

well it's just basic customer lifetime value calcs

they know each sign up customer is worth x dollars, so they can lose y dollars to make someone order once

[little glen]

How much of a % do they take

Is that public info

[glacial wind]

if they know the lifetime profit from one customer is $10+, then they can spend up to $9 to gain that customer for example

[glacial wind]

i'm sure it's messy to calculate since their take depends on a lot of things from coupons used to sale etc

but basically it all just goes back to lifetime value of each customer

[little glen]

Yeah i just wanted to calc how much of my money they have gotten so far

[glacial wind]

oh there'd no way for you to do that really, because when they do sales for example it cuts into their profits

would need to be working at aliexpress to actually know

[little glen]

[fluid ravine]

Beon releasing everything but the Leggera rn

what about Pesante

[little glen]

Pesante cancelled cause josh from discord wanted it too much

new ktek switch

doesn't seem to be good purely based on the data 480+-80g.

fast rebounce maybe that means long spring

[fallen pecan]

looks like a budget offering since they're launching on jamesdonkey and ajazz boards

[kind helm]

hows that "手感一致" (aka "even feel")

me too lazy to search for more info

[sacred elm]

lol

32+-32 for even feel

[kind helm]

i dont understand tri mode

[little glen]

Idk how to say it but i dont trust mfs with desks that are too clean

[kind helm]

calling out mr cam here

hehe

[little glen]

Like, you only have keyboard, mouse and mousepad on your desk?

You gotta be hiding something

Some dark secret

[glacial wind]

Probably tidy up regularly

[little glen]

Nah i mean like

You dont have a pen on your desk?

No document holder? No nothing??

[glacial wind]

I once had a housemate so tidy that he refused to even have anything on his kitchen that was not in a a cabinet

[sacred elm]

no

[round sparrow]

My desk is clean my drawer on the other hand tho

[glacial wind]

maybe if he was living in 2003. I have a fancy pen on my desk that gets used maybe once a year and most documents are just digital now

[chilly mural]

No, i place them somewhere else

[little glen]

Nah you gotta have some stuff on your desk

[glacial wind]

yeah i have zero documents on my desk too

[chilly mural]

Does speaker count?

[glacial wind]

why would they be on my desk lol

[little glen]

Yes

[chilly mural]

Okay, noice

[sacred elm]

i have nothing on my desk either

lol

[glacial wind]

the only documents i have physical copies of are important stuff like government visa docs or insurance stuff

[kind helm]

i have my wallet, keys, coffee cup * 2 (one for alcohol), and 1 water bottle, 1 wireless headphone charger just on the left side of my table

[little glen]

Speaker, wallet, headphones, airpods, water, phone charger, figurine, dnd dice, etc etc etc

Hell, even some ibuprofen or something

Anything to show signs of life

A plant

[glacial wind]

all of those things would go in non desk spot normally

like i keep wallet, charger etc all in a separate area

[little glen]

Ok good to know i cant trust you

[chilly mural]

that's too much

[glacial wind]

that's how you lose the ladies honestly

[sacred elm]

sorry but i would go insane having all those stuff on my desk

[little glen]

Not saying you need all of em

[kind helm]

ouch

[glacial wind]

they come visit and see you live like frat house style still in 20s and it's not a good look

[little glen]

Just some of it, these are examples for things that could be on there

[glacial wind]

it's like having bed with no frame still

[little glen]

My bedframe broke

[chilly mural]

waow

gotta buy a new one and lose some weight

[little glen]

My landlord said he would do it

Like

6 months ago

[chilly mural]

fuwee

[glacial wind]

a lot of folks don't even have a proper desk setup

[little glen]

I honestly hate my setup but its all my landlord‘s stuff

[sacred elm]

me

[little glen]

Glass desk that wobbles

[sacred elm]

i have small ass desk

[glacial wind]

know a lot of friends who just work from couch and/or kitchen table if they need to do any work at home

[sacred elm]

literally no space

[kind helm]

i love my setup despite its messiness just because its really functional.

https://tenor.com/view/copium-cat-gif-27161395

[little glen]

I trust them more than someone that has a desk that looks like american psycho

[chilly mural]

that's cozy

[sacred elm]

my desk cant even be messy, because its too small. mousepad monitor and keyboard take like 80% of the space

[little glen]

I cleared out my desk some time ago and threw away like 15 boxes of headache pills

[chilly mural]

take pic

[sacred elm]

cant rn

[chilly mural]

aww

[kind helm]

you need a bigger table at some point

its hella nice

[sacred elm]

Yeah, I plan to buy it in near future

[chilly mural]

big desk nice, I can fit my big ass controller along with my big mousepad

[sacred elm]

This sucks

[kind helm]

from a while back

[sacred elm]

thats massive

[little glen]

Your desk looks trustworthy

Looks like a human is actually using it

Not some weird alien pretending

[glacial wind]

that's desk of "I hope you're a streamer or work online because those are your excuses for the mess"

[chilly mural]

This is a bit too large

[kind helm]

i do work from home hehe

[chilly mural]

very noice

[kind helm]

a large table + a side table is good. honestly more surface space the better

[glacial wind]

i don't like the lack of color coordination though

[kind helm]

having a notebook with a pencil is so nice when i need to draw out figures for work, so much easier than trying to imagine the figure then use ppt directly

[glacial wind]

why is everything you own different colors

[kind helm]

poor and lazy

[glacial wind]

osume would never approve of your setup for their instagram

[little glen]

Fuck color coordination

[chilly mural]

yeah, just go rainbow!

[kind helm]

and probably lack of the ability to think things through when buying things

[little glen]

🏳️‍🌈

Put the gay in gaymer, turn that rgb up

[rare kraken]

Guys what switches should I get to make my wooting 60HE silent but still have the acuation and everything

[sacred elm]

@glacial wind are mathews good

[little glen]

Raeds he

But its rubber dome tactile so you might not like it

[kind helm]

i would personally cope lekker v2 with a pc plate and a bunch foam if i am trying to get a HE board to sound "relatively" quiet

but no where near actual mx silent build

[rare kraken]

Wdym rubber feel and also yk good keycaps to get too I would like black

[little glen]

Ik good keycaps but you might not like the price

[sacred elm]

https://shop.wuquestudio.com/products/in-stock-ws-pbt-wob-keycaps?srsltid=AfmBOopNO6f27sQDS-aK9yM5cyYUTxlYZi77-2uw_alwVrL0SJegPjfp

there will be sale soon

[kind helm]

89 dolla on novelkey

black snail

i think pretty decent price for a gmk set

[sacred elm]

wuque clears

its 40$ on sale

[rare kraken]

74 for keycaps is kinda crazy ngl

[sacred elm]

40

[kind helm]

then yea get wuque

[rare kraken]

Oh 44 Alr

[little glen]

Let me introduce you to the beautiful world of gmk keycaps

[kind helm]

i still refuse to cope gmk sets for 100+

[rare kraken]

Alr then what switches should I get someone said raed and another said lekker v2 so idk

[sacred elm]

there are mathew silent switches but im not sure if they are good, sno has them, maybe he can tell if theyre good or no

[little glen]

Raeds are the most quiet but they are kinda weird

[little glen]

I have coped so many times by now

[kind helm]

lekker v2 would be closer to what you are used too. you should be able to find some vids in this channel about raed. you can see if you like the sound. tying feel wise they are different as well

its tactile

[kind helm]

tbf i rarely look for something specific as you can probably tell from my setup

[rare kraken]

I can get use to stuff fast but the wooting was a big step from my rk61

[kind helm]

if price is good and not too out of place compare to other stuff i have on the table then fck it

[little glen]

Im gonna get color matching aspirin for my desk setup

[rare kraken]

Alr and ima get the keycaps but not the gmk ones 100 is half of my keyboard

[kind helm]

its whatever honestly, wuque set most likely better for you because gmk set is really for people who want some specific bs

[rare kraken]

Alr and one last thing where do I get the raed switches

[kind helm]

depends on where you are, eu na or asia

[sacred elm]

listen to sound test first

you might not like it

[chilly mural]

TIL phantheon keys stocked Raeds

[rare kraken]

I am rn but the guy has a v2 version

[chilly mural]

hmm, almost $1 a switch

[silver nest]

bro wheres the lotion

[little glen]

Only lotion i have is 205g0 but i only use it for my keeb

[rare kraken]

Do yk if it’s bad for wax to get on your mousepad because my entire candle fell on my mousepad and wooting but I used boiling water on my mousepad so I’m wondering if it messed up the glide

[kind helm]

and yall say i was fcked

[sacred elm]

💀 💀

im not sure but i think boiled water can damage the surface of your pad

[kind helm]

https://tenor.com/view/nothing-further-no-more-nothing-more-thats-all-finished-gif-14179896

[rare kraken]

And I’ve been using a iron to dry my mousepad after I wash it

nah bruh you're fucked

[kind helm]

shf right now

LMFAO

[sacred elm]

[rare kraken]

Like when I wash my mousepad it takes too long to dry to I put my iron at max heat and put it on my mousepad pad for like 15-20 seconds all around the keyboard

[sacred elm]

alright youre trolling

[rare kraken]

I’m fr

[silver nest]

bro atp just get a new pad

[rare kraken]

I’ve done it like 10 times already got my mousepad off Amazon

[kind helm]

raiden is kinda nutty

or maybe it was just me

i had maybe the best game of my life last night with raiden

[silver nest]

get an artisan or a glass pad

[sacred elm]

raiden is actually goated mousepad, i wasnt lying

[kind helm]

i was cheating

[rare kraken]

Glass mousepad would get too cold and would stick to my arm no?

[paper bloom]

I own a glass pad

[paper bloom]

It depends

Do u find ur arms being sticky ?

[sacred elm]

at first its pretty hard to aim with raiden, i was cooked when i got it

[rare kraken]

Nah real smooth

[kind helm]

yep

[silver nest]

depends on you i use my glass pad without a sleeve most of the time but usually after a while i start sweating and need to wear a sleeve

[sacred elm]

my 39g beastx has infinite speed on it

[rare kraken]

I ain’t wearing a sleeve srry

[kind helm]

zero x soft to raiden mid, 80cm feels like 30cm no joke

[silver nest]

depends also if you live in a humid climate

[paper bloom]

Id say go for a glasspad that has either a good coating

Or smoothness

[rare kraken]

I like when it’s real hot in my room

[sacred elm]

glasspad isnt for everyone

[paper bloom]

^

[silver nest]

fr

[rare kraken]

Ima send a pic of my setup tell me like a good size

[kind helm]

bigga the betta

[silver nest]

490x420 and above is the perfect size ngl

[rare kraken]

But my desk is weird

There is this thing that my monitor sits on

[silver nest]

yeah i dont think an xl glass pad will fit on your desk lol

[sacred elm]

yea it wont

artisan too

[silver nest]

also you have a deskpad you could've just flipped it around

instead of doing all that

[rare kraken]

Wdym

[silver nest]

turn it 180 degrees

[rare kraken]

Turn what idk

[silver nest]

your pad

[rare kraken]

I don’t get what ur saying turn my mousepad 180 degrees

It’s way to long to do that

[sacred elm]

💀

[rare kraken]

Am I autistic idk what yall saying

[tawdry tree]

I loveee recolors!

[rare kraken]

Can u show me a pic of how it looks I fr dk what yall talking abt

[kind helm]

👀 recolor of wat, me blind

[tawdry tree]

I have not a clue what flipping a mat 180° accomplishes either lol

[rare kraken]

Ye idk

[tawdry tree]

TTC SE and some other KTEK switches

[kind helm]

k good not familar

[tawdry tree]

they’re not worth to know about so np sir

[harsh dove]

lol I don’t like leaving stuff out/laying around if it’s not in use, I don’t like a cluttered desk lol

[tawdry tree]

this would be 90°, but maybe he meant that? 😂

[kind helm]

tbf if i have a cabinet or something i probably make my setup a bit cleaner as well. just dont want to buy one since i am not staying in this city for too long(hopefully...)

[rare kraken]

Uh idk ima just keep it like this ig

60 bucks for a mousepad kind steep ngl

I found some steel series one for 30 but idk

[sacred elm]

💀

[rare kraken]

I still got wax on my wooting

But my fingers are melting it

[tawdry tree]

what the fuck

lol

[tawdry tree]

If you’re actually looking for silent switches, then these are decent and very inexpensive: #🔧│keyboard_modding message
#🔧│keyboard_modding message
#🔧│keyboard_modding message

@rare kraken oh I get it. Wax fell on your mousepad (the part where you use your mouse) so flipping it around would put the waxxed part under your keyboard instead.

the guy wasn’t crazy.

[harsh dove]

Basically how my setup looks if I’m not working/studying

[rare kraken]

no the under part of my mousepad is rubber

so it does not move

[kind helm]

where is your bottle

[harsh dove]

Underneath

[kind helm]

ahh

[rare kraken]

where can i buy the switches from

[tawdry tree]

the moving part is the issue? it’s clean on the surface?

[tawdry tree]

Ali

[rare kraken]

ye but some chip crumbs

[tawdry tree]

Here: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EQZCOYG

[tawdry tree]

ah, you got the wax fully off?

just wax stuck in the keyboard now? z💀

[rare kraken]

ye i kept it in boiling water for a good 2 mins

[rare kraken]

ye and on my scroll wheel on my mouse

then to make sure i got everything i used an iron

kinda burnt a lil of the mouse pad tho but ay all good got the wax out

[kind helm]

i have been using these instead of candle.

[tawdry tree]

just get a new pad atp

[rare kraken]

Ye Ik but this one still works idk if the glide went away

[rare kraken]

Won’t they steal my credit card info 🤦‍♂️

[little glen]

No

Aliexpress is the goat

[rare kraken]

myo freind was tellin me he got 3 stuff for 99 cents but took like 3 weeks to come lol

[kind helm]

yea slow but really good price, many people here from different regions use aliexpress

[rare kraken]

Wait should I get other stuff from it

Like the keycaps lol

[little glen]

Ali takes maybe a week or 2 at most to ship to me

[tawdry tree]

there are some decent cheap keycaps on ali yeah

[glacial wind]

they're decent. Better when hand lubed

[kind helm]

since you want cheaper caps, ali would be a good place

[rare kraken]

Nah ima just get the 44 dollar ones ain’t that much just the total of everything added up

I lokey want a metal case I heard makes the keyboard sound better too

[tawdry tree]

$44 from where?

most shit around that price from amazon, u can get from ali for $20

😂

[rare kraken]

Scroll up you should see a link

[kind helm]

shf said wuque is going to have a sale on their site

wuque wob

[rare kraken]

Ye it’s 44 for the keycaps

[tawdry tree]

is that cheaper than from ali?

[kind helm]

idk if its 40 something i think its not bad especially for stuff from wuque

[harsh dove]

Yeah last time they were $50

[kind helm]

decent ali pbt caps are around 40-60 too right?

[tawdry tree]

yeah it’s good. I didn’t know wuque had a website where they sold stuff lol

[stone flax]

$20

[harsh dove]

https://shop.wuquestudio.com/products/in-stock-ws-pbt-wob-keycaps
