Rythm gamers really cope doing anything they can to pretend they are playing a good game

I even did it for my 80he

Congratulations on your watermelon bottle of switches

#

Actually it would be a neat novelty to have a 20x sized switch for display

#

Kind of like the gigantic keycap novelties that jelly keys makes

Giant lekker v1 with same wobble scaled up to the bigger size

Good luck

At least I still have work computer until I get around to fixing gaming one I guess

#

oh god i haven't installed updates for like a year on my work computer

kind helm
#

pepe_sweat isnt the work pc more prone to getting viruse due to the amount of email you gotta check?

lapis raven
#

if you click on dodgy stuff sure

glacial wind
#

well it's just OS updates for mac, but pain in the ass to install the 5 or whatever that I need to catch up on

kind helm
#

i think also possible with pdf as well

#

but think thats more on windows end

little glen
#

Thats why i only work with .txt files

glacial wind
#

safer to make them upload to their geocities website and link directly there

#

then you can get cool background music playing while they read the text and maybe some flashing things on the site at same time

lapis raven
#

i want wuque to give me my 10 switches

#

still annoyed they gave me 80 flux's instead of 90

little glen
#

Did you message them

lapis raven
#

yarp

#

just waiting for their response now

#

i hope they give me something for free

#

or express shipping at least

#

He dmed it to me

#

Didn't say anything about being a reviewer though

They do be the best value switches if you factor in getting them for free

hmm, venom software doesn't looks as intuitive

#

I have a feeling I'll still like my Owlabs more but we'll see

#

I am thinking if getting a different o ring for my leggera would be good

I had some issue with daily clack where they only shipped to EU once you had a minimum order value

Maybe oblo has same thing for orders leaving EU

if its more than 140 euro's thats dumb

cherry flowers

marsh saffron

#

Yeah that’s why I’m not sure it’s actually a new switch vs limited cherry blossom season edition lol

#

Cherry blossom season just hit its prime this week too

chilly mural
#

I feel like they should've teased it like a month back if that's the case

#

hmm, the case doesn't feel nice though, at least it isn't $25. Inclusion of a travel case is nice to have. There's not a lot to complain for the price.

#

Something unrelated, the keycaps I put on venom doesn't feel as nice as GMK. It's bearable, but my hand would like me to keep using the 80he.

I mean, the entire tariff thing has been crazy from day one, so at this stage no one really understands wtf is going on behind some praying it’s actually a negotiation tool and not him believing tariffs work

but im not in their position so i dont know if they have to or not

China doesn’t bend to threats

that and the rest of the world will just go trade with China more because trump isn’t isolating tariffs to just China, he tariffed everyone lol

The rest of the world is already trading with China. The biggest fear China has is that the other countries will come to the US and renogitiate deals finding cheapers avenues for the US outside of China. According to the news, there are 50 countries who have already agreed to negotiate new deals including 0% tariff deals from Vietnam and India.

Yeah the factory stuff isn’t happening. No sane company is actually setting their long term strategy on policy that will change in 4 years anyway

#

At most they pretend they want to build or pledge to build to try get in good books then never do it lol

#

Even if they wanted to build factories locally, historically a lot of companies just cheated their way around using loopholes and cheating that took forever to be looked into and caught

stray tiger

China's goal was to be known as the Worlds Factory and they made it happen at all costs

i really dont get why trump hates that and wants to have the burden of manufacturing again

I wish they’d drop the whole trade deficit talk too. It makes the entire thing even more insane to constant bring up trade deficits as if those numbers mean anything

Why tariff everyone rather than just issuing import tax?

Wouldn’t that be essentially the same thing but just not as targeted?

“deadzoning” lol

The socd will clean up your inputs a bit if your timing is a bit rushed but outside of that there’s no real change

Kind of pointless in valo but it’s similar

night atlas
# tawdry tree 🤔 Skylines are a bit less stable than Raws in my exp

We're talking about tolerances regarding stem wobble right?

If we are, i highly disagree, not only can I feel it. You can physically see with the naked eye the differences in the amount of space between the stem and the housing between the raws and skylines.

try look at em side by side w/a top down view

glacial wind
#

When you change direction it’s just shooting the bullet in between basically

half hill
#

U move and stop immediately and shoot

#

So there’s no recoil

tawdry tree
half hill
#

Basically shooting a target without them able to kill you without them tracking u which is hard

glacial wind
half hill
#

I mean it’s almost the same but different

#

Counter strafing isn’t a thing valo really

tawdry tree
night atlas
#

for sure, idk, the difference is so significant to me, u can just straight up see it too

#

there's no doubt that raws are less stable

harsh dove
#

Wait I thought skylines were more stable than Raws?

#

Now yall saying the opposite

tawdry tree
#

just me

night atlas
#

no i'm on the same side as u cam

harsh dove

Oh

#

Nah I thought Aligner said Skylines felt more stable to him too previously

Maybe I read wrong

Are poms really the best?

harsh dove

For stability yeah one of the best

half hill

They sound okayish

I expected a bit more

cyan lark
#

Sound is subjective.

harsh dove
#

Yeah

half hill
#

Yea but everyone did say it’s quite loud

#

I wanted it to sound like a typewriter

harsh dove
#

They are but they sound quiet on my frog mini with POM plate

Pom on Pom

It kind of sounds muted idk how to explain in keyboard nerdy terms

# half hill I had a question, how tf is socd going to help me in valo, can someone explain h...

Ez, with socd you could just keep holding a, press d to strafe right and let go of d to strafe back left (still holding down a). For valo, you shoot everytime you press and let go of d

For me this is slightly faster than doing it the normal way without socd. Theres a tiny pause between switching directions without socd, with socd you can very easily stay in movement permanently (not saying its not possible without, but its way easier with)

Havent used it this way in valo yet, but on marvel rivals with hela, this works pretty well, especially when you fight against an enemy hela dogekek

harsh dove

Frog Mini

cyan lark
#

They sound pretty chill in my Salv (PC plate) as well, relatively speaking. Similar situation I'm guessing.

half hill
#

Is there any difference between frog mini and optimum?

#

I got the salv

cyan lark
#

But it's possible I've just gotten used to it

harsh dove
#

Yes

half hill
#

It feels weird ash

harsh dove
#

Mounting style

#

Optimum is tray mount or friction mount, Frog Mini is Tadpole mount

half hill
#

Ok so now we’re just making random ass terms up

harsh dove
#

What?

half hill
#

Spring leaf mount

harsh dove
#

These are real terms

half hill
#

Tadpole mount

harsh dove
#

That’s a real term too

cyan lark
half hill
#

TvT

glacial wind
ionic breach
half hill
harsh dove
#

There’s Gummy Mount, Top Mount, Gasket Mount, Tadpole Mount, Tray Mount, Friction Mount, etc

ionic breach
#

that acts like a spring

cyan lark
#

Next thing you know they're gonna give names to other things. smh my head

glacial wind
#

Since valorant movement has acceleration you can’t instant start stop same way as marvel rivals or overwatch. So usage of socd is mostly just to clean up multiple inputs if you rushed and overlap a bit

cyan lark
#

I love how it feels, springy and fun. But it's a personal thing for sure.

harsh dove
#

This is tadpole

half hill
glacial wind
#

Trust me. We’ve gone through this and tested it before lol

half hill
harsh dove
glacial wind
#

You’re going to wreck your mechanics trying to alternate between normal deadzone techniques and trying to use the wacky socd toggle version

harsh dove
#

Compared to traditional tray mounting

cyan lark
#

"Across the board"

nice

harsh dove
#

Haha

half hill
harsh dove
#

Weird in what way like too bouncy for you?

half hill
#

Ok yes that’s the term right there

harsh dove
#

I recently made mine have less bounce

half hill
#

Why does my pcb just bounce

harsh dove
#

By moving the foam pads for the leaf springs further away from the screw

#

Makes it stiffer

half hill
#

I just removed the things down there and kept the pcb without the mounts they have

harsh dove
#

The closer the foam pads are to the screws makes it bouncier

harsh dove
half hill
#

Is it bad?

#

I don’t hate it

harsh dove
#

I wouldn’t tray mount salvation personally

#

I’d use the leaf springs

half hill
#

Any case recommendations? Realistically I want a case which isn’t bouncy but feels nice to type on

#

Gasket mount?

harsh dove
#

You have wooting60he?

half hill
#

Yeah

#

I mean I don’t care about polling rate, nobody can differentiate between the 1000hz and 8000hz, no human can, so I just went with the 60he instead of 80he

#

Especially keyboard

cyan lark
#

You gotta try mounting your salv w/ leaf springs... it's kinda the whole sell of it

half hill
#

I do like my mouse having 8khz tho

harsh dove
#

I’d say like 2nd hand frog mini or get a Leggera , the optimum case isn’t bad if you friction mount it imo and if it’s too soft you can just get harder O Ring or Tadpoles

half hill
#

Leggera? What mounting is that?

harsh dove
#

Gummy or tray

half hill
harsh dove
#

You would need the T version for Wooting

half hill
harsh dove
#

Then you can try to friction mount it with a gummy o ring

half hill
#

Yea this is going over my head

#

What

harsh dove
#

Wrapping this around your PCB and shoving it into the case

#

Instead of screwing it in

cyan lark
#

But again, preference.

stray tiger
#

@glacial wind still here?

half hill
half hill
#

Hmmmmm so I needed something which DOESNT bounce or anything and something which isn’t soft nor hard but in the middle and I like my keyboard to sound as loud as a typewriter, is there any mount for this?

harsh dove
#

Really just a personal preference thing

cyan lark
#

I don't think you can achieve "loud as a typewriter" on HE at all.

half hill
#

Hyperbole
