[tropic urchin]

Have you tried flux on alu cam

[harsh dove]

What do you think I’m doing in this photo

[tropic urchin]

I saw those Oreo bois and was getting weird vibes

[harsh dove]

Lmao nah I just removed em rn

Might throw em in the OG frog mini

That’s what I had the Fluxes in

[trail bane]

Someone just use poron

[harsh dove]

I have a mod for that too

[sacred elm]

🥀

[tropic urchin]

Is cutting the silicone to make it poppier

[harsh dove]

Yes

Silicone mutes the mids

So I removed it for the alphas

[trail bane]

Tru

[sacred elm]

there will be extra flex there no?

i dont like flex

[harsh dove]

Not with a aluminum plate

[tropic urchin]

Would you recommend the same for marbly clack enjoyers

[harsh dove]

With a softer plastic plate , yeah

[harsh dove]

If you don’t care about cutting your stuff then yeah

It’s something to try out

[sacred elm]

you can still reuse it so its fine

[trail bane]

Damn, this corsair keycaps is so op

[tropic urchin]

The hard dampening is kind of cringe

[harsh dove]

Yeah if you cut it like I did, it’s not destroyed

[tardy obsidian]

hi, what cables can i use with wooting 60 he - I know its recommended to use the provided one, and usb c cables under 2 meter. are there any other criteria that should fit the cable?
I am trying to swap the yellow braided cable that was provided

[harsh dove]

Can still reuse the piece I cut out

[untold wigeon]

Word thx

[harsh dove]

USB 3.2

[tropic urchin]

I got the silver one same as Mr cam, def recommended

Time to release my balls and snip some silicone

[sacred elm]

😳

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/blinking-eyes-white-guy-blinking-meme-what-huh-gif-26334322

[tardy obsidian]

alright tnx

[trail bane]

I have 1 usb 3.2 port and 4 older one. In BIOS no-one is shown as 3.2🤔

[tropic urchin]

Oh I’m gonna have to retape now fuck

Whatever

[tardy obsidian]

oh yeah how do i check this

[trail bane]

When I’m trying to turn off 3.2 every single port is didn’t work XD

[trail bane]

Color of port, Device Manager, and also depending on the BIOS, you can do it there too.

[harsh dove]

Your motherboard should tell you how many of each type of port you have, if they aren’t running at those speeds, check your BIOS Settings and/or Update your Chipset Drivers

[untold wigeon]

Looks sick!

[trail bane]

Yeah, I figured that out a couple of days ago. For some reason, the blue USB port that was supposed to be 3.2 shows up as 3.0. And one of the default ones is actually an impostor and turns out to be 3.2.

[harsh dove]

Oh interesting

[tropic urchin]

@harsh dove can you redline mark where you cut on my image ❤️

[trail bane]

But it’s still a mystery why, when I disable the 3.2 port in Device Manager, absolutely all of them shut off.

[harsh dove]

If this sounds bad, I blame you , just sayin

[fluid ravine]

Do it

[trail bane]

Ayo!

This is actually interesting

[sacred elm]

just dont use it at this point

[tropic urchin]

Holy Frankenstein plate pad

[sacred elm]

💀

[kind helm]

thank god you dont have to use that anymore

eww

[tardy obsidian]

ok so from what i read, as long as i dont have the wooting tachycha mode or whatever on along side the rgb lights, other cables should be good right? i have 3.2 cable - just that its 3 meters long

[fluid ravine]

Well someone else does..

The guy j sold my optimum to LMAO

[sacred elm]

2m is recommended

3 might be too long

[tardy obsidian]

alright thanks

[sacred elm]

most 2m cables should work fine if theyre not too cheap

quality matters

[tardy obsidian]

yeah

unfortunately turns out all my usb c cables are over 2m lol

[sacred elm]

try all your cables, turn on tachyon mode and set rgb to 100%

[sacred elm]

if you dont see anything wrong then good

[kind helm]

well someone else doesnt have my respect

[sacred elm]

use it

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

So fuck CAM and that person

[harsh dove]

Just be careful around the spacebar portion

[sacred elm]

you stopped using foam there?

[trail bane]

Do y’all use swagkeys knight v2 stabs?

[harsh dove]

Depends how I’m feeling but yeah

[harsh dove]

V1 or v2 or v3

[kind helm]

nah cam is cool

[fluid ravine]

Papa am I cool 🥺

[tropic urchin]

Ty mr cam

[kind helm]

joshiba thinks you are cool when your neo arrives

[fluid ravine]

So a million years

Shit stuck at border rn

[harsh dove]

My package got delayed to Monday instead of today and AliExpress gave me $2

[sacred elm]

fckkkk, cant wait to get back home to try fluxxieess

[tardy obsidian]

whats that keycap called

[harsh dove]

GMK Rubrehose

[fluid ravine]

Fuckkk cant wait to lose my mind over fluxies for not being able to get them in a million years

[sacred elm]

[fluid ravine]

For real

[harsh dove]

They did you dirty

[sacred elm]

[fluid ravine]

Blue eyes are gorgeous

[cyan lark]

Look at those little dagger teeth. Good kitties.

[fluid ravine]

[harsh dove]

Looks like my boys as kittens but way darker

[marsh saffron]

Gonna be rabbit killers like my cat is 😭

[fluid ravine]

Theres a black cat that usually come around outside my apt

[marsh saffron]

We have 2 black ones and now these 2 Grey ones

[sacred elm]

I wanna cat but house will explode if I get it

[sacred elm]

lab + cat not a good idea

[tropic urchin]

Thank you @harsh dove

🌹

[harsh dove]

Beri nais

[fluid ravine]

Wait they're so fricking pretty

[fluid ravine]

That was quick

Dayum

[sacred elm]

gg silicon🥀

[tropic urchin]

Mr cam made it easy

[tropic urchin]

Indeed

[cyan lark]

I was hesitant to cut up my silicone. I know it could still be used, but I dunno.

Is the difference noticeable to you / worthwhile?

[tropic urchin]

Haven’t put it together yet

[marsh saffron]

We now have 4

And are likely getting a dog soon

Praying for a dog

[cyan lark]

https://tenor.com/view/well-we-re-waiting-gif-26938872

[sacred elm]

my dog is friendly but idk if its good idea to get a cat

[fluid ravine]

Shhh my froggy is sleeping

[tropic urchin]

For marbly clack gang we want our mids so silicone gotta go

[tardy obsidian]

in 60he - to turn off the rgbs, i basically put the slider down to 0 right? or is there a button for it

[marsh saffron]

Our last 2 cats were great with our dog

[sacred elm]

0%

or just paint it black

[fluid ravine]

Correcto

[tropic urchin]

Ty pops jr 🌹

[marsh saffron]

Chunky

[cyan lark]

Disgusting

ly cute

[sacred elm]

wtf

i saw that

[marsh saffron]

My parents seem sold on an Alaskan klee kai

They only like small dogs lol

Idec what kinda dog we get i just want a dog

[sacred elm]

i love dogs

[marsh saffron]

Same

[sacred elm]

except chihuahua

[cyan lark]

Chihuahas are sociopaths

[marsh saffron]

I'm not a fan of small dogs but there is exceptions for sure..

I've met some lovely chihuahuas (they still looked like rats though)

[sacred elm]

[marsh saffron]

Most chihuahuas are assholes though

[tropic urchin]

Rottweilers and GSDs are my goats

[marsh saffron]

I'm gonna get an ak bash

Or a pitty

[sacred elm]

labs and corgis on top

[marsh saffron]

I like big dogs

[cyan lark]

No breed on top. Good dogs on top.

[tropic urchin]

Pittys are nice but the gooberment gonna come for ya

[tropic urchin]

Facts

[marsh saffron]

If i ever own some livestock I'm gonna get a turkish boz shepherd

[tropic urchin]

Smallest dog I’d go for is 40 lbs

[marsh saffron]

150-180lbs on avg🥴

[tropic urchin]

Which is the same size as Daisy. 🌹

[cyan lark]

My big sweet girl

[fluid ravine]

Frogs is the way to go

[tropic urchin]

Lily left, Daisy right

[gusty patio]

so my friend said that if i ever do wanna make a 60/65 board out of a venom pcb it'll be really difficult cause i need a plate to get custom printed for it? (or maybe it was another part, anyway it sounded challenging)

[marsh saffron]

Pitbulls are about my "size cutoff" for a breed id seek for. But if I find a rescue dog thats smaller thst I fall in love with idc about size

[fluid ravine]

Geon sell venom plates of diff materials on their website

[sacred elm]

get chinese tibetan mastiff

[fluid ravine]

65 isnt out yet but will have their own plates as well

[tropic urchin]

What the fluff

[marsh saffron]

One of the breeds I want make this look small

[sacred elm]

lmao idk this looks like ai

[marsh saffron]

Lookup a Turkish boz shepherd

[foggy scroll]

Are they making 65s?

[fluid ravine]

Yes

[foggy scroll]

Oh sick

[gusty patio]

hmm, so then as long as i get a plate from him, all the supported cases on the compatibility list would be enough? also 65 cases seem hard to find too eh

[gusty patio]

i checked that list and most were no longer available

[sacred elm]

fluxxxxx

[gusty patio]

ive got no dog so heres a cat for ya'll 👍

[cyan lark]

$600 keeb right there

[kind helm]

almost thought i was in the wrong channel for a sec

[marsh saffron]

Me want, but I need some land with livestock before I'll buy one

[atomic ermine]

do u guys know why the screw wont go in the case

[marsh saffron]

Bros pimped tf out

[cyan lark]

It's Friday

[cyan lark]

Nice horse!

[marsh saffron]

Basically

They can get upwards of 200lbs

[gusty patio]

damn

[sacred elm]

this dog isnt real dude

[fluid ravine]

For the most part, the Venom 60he has a GH60 pcb layout so it has a universal 60% form factor so it's compatible with other gh60 cases. Along side that you can also get gummy mount cases like Leggera g and bakeneko for the mount since it has compatible cutouts. But if you want to put it in other boards like frog mini og or like derative or wtv, that has a unique mount due to the plate then you would have to get a custom plate for it to work. Another thing is that with 65%, it's not really universal like 60% so it may be a bit harder to find compatible cases. But I assume that Geon will make a compatibility list later once it's out.

[gusty patio]

Sounds good thanks. Yeah, I still dont know if I want 60 or 65. 65 has some useful extra buttons on the side but 60 would definitely be much easier to find a case for 😔 oh well, I will decide when I get my keycap set

[atomic ermine]

do you guys think its ok if i am missing 1 screw to tie the keyboar into the case

[sacred elm]

theres extra included with the keyboard

[atomic ermine]

i have some bu

[sacred elm]

should be in the box

[atomic ermine]

but

i cant put it into the case

im trying to screw it in but it wont work

[sacred elm]

try other screw

[atomic ermine]

i got the other 4 already but the 5th one wont go in

[fluid ravine]

Yup, I'm about to get my 65% board later on, dunno when, but def excited on what it's like compared to 60% cus I've been using a 60% for my whole life lol

Eta on my board is the 30th

[atomic ermine]

ill try what should i do if i doesnt work

[sacred elm]

just leave it without a screw, should be fine

[atomic ermine]

alright cause i got the 2 on the left and 2 on the right

just the 1 near the spacebar thats not going in

[sacred elm]

yea, thats enough

[fluid ravine]

Honestly, some of us don't even use the screw next to the space bar

Just the 4 you just screwed in

[atomic ermine]

yea it seems stable already

[tropic urchin]

why fluxes look so good 😳

[atomic ermine]

ill just try doing it a few more times

[sacred elm]

fluxes look yummy

[fluid ravine]

Not only that, when we use the one near the space bar it makes our space bar sound uneven

[atomic ermine]

so you think i shouldnt use it then?

[fluid ravine]

Cus one side is screwed down to the mounting point making it sound pingy or hollow, or just uneven in general

[fluid ravine]

Personally yes

[atomic ermine]

alright thank you

[fluid ravine]

Yh

[atomic ermine]

ive been sturggling on this for like an hour and a half

[fluid ravine]

Oof

[atomic ermine]

i had to remove the pcb cause the screw got stuck

[gusty patio]

ohh cool, what ya gettin

[fluid ravine]

I bought a neo65 from a friend

[gusty patio]

ah that has some really nice color options

[fluid ravine]

This the one I bought from him

[gusty patio]

oh sick

damn

[fluid ravine]

Trying to sell s set of key caps rn so I can find one to match that board

[tulip rapids]

big dodge

[fluid ravine]

Was gonna post on r/Mechmarket but I couldn't cus I don't have enough karma

Rarely use reddit

[tulip rapids]

that cream though🔥

[fluid ravine]

Oof

[fluid ravine]

Indeed

[fluid ravine]

First cream board on Leggera was when I start to fall in love

now I'm back on the struggle to find key caps that would fit the neo without having to go through tariff and shit

[tulip rapids]

i use to be blind but the cream has opened my eyes

[fluid ravine]

Lmaooo

[kind helm]

gmk only i guess, isn't gmk made in Germany or something

[fluid ravine]

Geonworks

[steel hemlock]

Mum found these in my rooms had to explain it’s for lubing stabs and keys and not for drugs

[fluid ravine]

Well I could get from us vendors

[kind helm]

keykobo i think is made in cn

[fluid ravine]

But I can't find a set that looks good in us vendors rn

[tidal frigate]

You wouldnt put drugs trough that big one anyway, you would destroy your veins

[steel hemlock]

Exactly

But mum doesn’t know that

[tidal frigate]

Well technicly you could

But it require being skilled enough

[steel hemlock]

I mean those come from my work and believe me I’ve heard and seen horror stories about nurses who don’t know what the fuck they’re doing

It’s all about minimizing the risk factor more than it is about being skill

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/got-caught-pinned-down-arrested-police-gif-16970497

youre going away for a very long time

[steel hemlock]

Nooo D:

[tidal frigate]

Well you dont want have air pocket in veins tho

[steel hemlock]

My stab lubing crimes

[polar girder]

Get your karma up

[fluid ravine]

Idk how it works

How to do

[steel hemlock]

I mean that’s more of a handling issue than needle issue

[polar girder]

Need likes

[foggy scroll]

We just gonna ignore the 100+ unread messages?

[polar girder]

Make a popular comment lol

[steel hemlock]

Yes we will

[tidal frigate]

Well that's why i trust more old nurses

[fluid ravine]

Oof

[steel hemlock]

True and super fair

[tulip rapids]

too mnay nurses nowadays dont know how to take blood properly

[harsh dove]

Flux on Alu Plate

[tidal frigate]

Old i mean around 40 to 50

[tulip rapids]

🫦

[tidal frigate]

Sounds like america

[tulip rapids]

yeth

[harsh dove]

@tropic urchin

[steel hemlock]

I had nurses call today to ask which syringe she should used and then proceeded to describe the worst discoloration known to man like that syringe had an entire bacterial colony already built up cause it was left in the patients fridge for weeks

[tidal frigate]

Taking blood is actually quite easy

[steel hemlock]

If a nurse can’t read labels and reach that conclusion by herself

I’m scared

[tulip rapids]

tell that to the nursed who cant

[tulip rapids]

same

[tidal frigate]

Never had nurse like that

[tulip rapids]

i had some good nurses but i had some terrible ones in the past

[harsh dove]

A nurse overdosed my mom and killed her and then they had to bring my mom back to life, they gave her a drug that my moms deathly allergic too and they even had it written on the board in my moms room and still gave it to her

[kind helm]

FUCK

[clever harbor]

anyone used ceramic keycaps?

[tidal frigate]

Shouldnt that nurse should take sterile syringe from cabinet

[steel hemlock]

Oh cause you don’t see those outside of the work field or atleast not directly in front of the patient

[harsh dove]

Yeah was pretty crazy, my mom said she had an out of body experience

could basically see herself and see the doctors working on her, said she was like floating above her body

[kind helm]

i dont trust nurses that look like they are below 30 yo

[steel hemlock]

It was pre-filled

But when pre-filled from a clean room it should be used in no less than 2 weeks depending on the drug

If not less

[tidal frigate]

Thats very stupid

[steel hemlock]

Holy fuck I’m so sorry to hear but glad she was ok afterwards

[tidal frigate]

In Polish hospitals i always got everything fresh

[harsh dove]

🙏

[kind helm]

🙏

[steel hemlock]

In hospital everything is fresh

Outpatients tho needs to have preparations done in clean rooms if they’re continuing treatments from home

Because it cannot simply be mixed and injected on the spot

When it needs to be put in pumps

Or other reconstitutions for syringes

[tidal frigate]

Syringe pumps?

[steel hemlock]

Hold up I’ll show you I’m at work rn

These are the kind of pumps I meant

But in the case I mentioned

It was a syringe that required multiple mixtures

Which outside of a clean room, you can not do more than one transfer iirc(not my exact field)

So a nurse couldn’t just show up to the patients house with a vial and dilute it on the spot

More contamination risks

However, of course there’s gonna be bacterial cultures if you left something untouched but already diluted in a fridge for over a month

[tropic urchin]

I think FR4 and CF + Tape mod are peak for Flux

[tidal frigate]

Never seen something like that

[steel hemlock]

They’re meant for easy access IV injections for patients discharged from hospitals

[tidal frigate]

Is metamizole still banned in us?

[steel hemlock]

You screw it in to your PICC line (idk if that’s what it’s called in your country but the tube they leave in your arm for easy injections) remove the clip and it flows over the needed course of 15 mins to 4 hours depending on how slow the injection has to be given because some meds give adverse reactions if administered too quickly

[steel hemlock]

Idk about US but banned in Canada

[tidal frigate]

Isint valve iv better

[tropic urchin]

im gonna try going back to FR4 after cutting the silicone to see how it feels again

[harsh dove]

yeah idk how I feel about the Alu yet

[tropic urchin]

I need to stop plate swapping

[trail bane]

Hm?

[harsh dove]

It's not terrible tho

[tropic urchin]

Did your FR4 sound louder to you than CF

[steel hemlock]

Similar concept, not necessarily better or worse

[tropic urchin]

mine did which was weird af

[steel hemlock]

All just depends on need

[tidal frigate]

Well it is quite strong and cant get addicted to it. Tho why it is banned

[steel hemlock]

I see a lot of everything

[trail bane]

Fr4 is op

[night atlas]

curious if anyone has an answer to this question

[steel hemlock]

Long story short, risk of lowering white blood cell count into dangerous territories

[tidal frigate]

Hm, well it happends if it is too big dose?

[steel hemlock]

Everyone reacts to drugs differently, if it was banned here probably there’s reasons I don’t know or can’t get into but it was revised in 2021 by health canada and still banned for human use, but allowed for veterinary use

[tidal frigate]

Because i would be fucked if i was in csnada Because paracetamol is not working at me in normal dosages

[steel hemlock]

Thing is people react to drugs a lot differently

Idk how strict or lenient your country is, I know Canada is fairly strict and there’s a lot of drugs here that are outright banned or are considered narcotics that in the US/Mexico you can buy off the shelf

[tawdry tree]

Herz on Ali (900Gs for Woot*): https://a.aliexpress.com/_Ez5fdDS

[tidal frigate]

Well when i was looking up long time ago it was banned after incident where metamizole caused very high fever and u know what happend

[tidal frigate]

I can buy metamizole on gas station

[steel hemlock]

That’s scary

[tidal frigate]

Tho opioids etc have to be bought in pharmacy

[steel hemlock]

Yes of course

Same in US but

Some drugs that are considered controlled or narcotic here in Canada are considered narcotic in the US

Like dehydroepiandrosterone

[tidal frigate]

I only had strong opioid after I broke leg

[steel hemlock]

Is a strong drug but sold as sport supplements in the US

[tidal frigate]

Hm

[steel hemlock]

You can buy it Walmart even kek

[tidal frigate]

Bruh

Looks like Poland is quite odd

[marsh saffron]

Above average perhaps

[steel hemlock]

When you look at any other countries healthcare they always look like the odd ones

[marsh saffron]

They can only weigh as much if not more than me

[tidal frigate]

Well where i would have to take pill of metamizole i need atleast tripple amount of paracetamol

Soo taking metamizole is safer

And pain goes away quicker

[steel hemlock]

The risk of side effects from metamizole, despite being considered an important risk in other countries, could be a safer option than taking 3x the dose of another strong drug yes

But both are different drug classes so they do different things

They aren’t mutually exclusive

[tidal frigate]

Well if we are talking straight to vein

They give me smaller dose

[steel hemlock]

Of course

I would hope so

Otherwise you’d be fucked

[tidal frigate]

Tho pills are weak and i don't want to get addicted

[tidal frigate]

They mesured everything by my weight when I was in hospital

[steel hemlock]

That’s standard procedure for a lot of these drugs

Some even need to consider the intake of nicotine in your body because nicotine cancels out the other drugs

And some even need to consider your grapefruit usage

Like imagine taking a drug but because you decided to eat a grapefruit

You had a psychosis episode

It sounds ridiculous but it’s the truth

[tidal frigate]

Tho when I was at home they give me opioid in flour slurry form

[marsh saffron]

I've yet to take any sort of opioids

[steel hemlock]

It’s weird cause

Everyone reacts differently right

I had some before and it just helped with pain

While some experience some sort of ecstatic feeling

[tidal frigate]

i just didnt feel my leg

That kind of strong

[steel hemlock]

The drug that personally scares me is cyclobenzaprine

It’s just a muscle relaxant

Not supposed to be addictive

But the feeling of just no soreness and a full night of sleep

I don’t wanna depend on pills to achieve that

[tidal frigate]

Well sounds like you have too much night shifts

That you need meds to get better sleep

[steel hemlock]

Work tonight I just have a condition

I don’t work night

I can sleep super easy. It’s just I’m always tense and sore even in the middle of the night.

[harsh dove]

Not that I recall tbh

FR4 is more balanced sounding to me

like in the middle of what the kids call "thock" and "clack"

I find CF to be closer to Alu without the metallic resonance

I also feel like FR4 has a bit of pop to it

[tropic urchin]

This shit sounds so loud for FR4 lmao

[harsh dove]

Those are Fluxes?

[tropic urchin]

yeah

this is post silicone cut, but it sounded like that even before

[neat hatch]

i literally just bought my wooting, what are some good cases for it, i dont really like the black look

[tropic urchin]

I do kind of fuck with it tho

[stray tiger]

It's a loud switch. Maybe the loudest available. If you want to tone it down it'll take more than FR4. You could try tape modding but not sure if it'll change the sound profile enough.

[tropic urchin]

Tape mod made CF more in line with FR4 before I cut my silicone, but I do fuck with the volume of it, just unexpected for FR4 hehe

[thorn zealot]

Fr4 so quirky and whacky

[stray tiger]

One of my fav plates TBH. If I am feeling more clacky I go FR4 otherwise it's PP as that's generally my mood lately.

[polar girder]

TTC POM better

[tropic urchin]

Too light

[harsh dove]

https://kineticlabs.com/keycaps/polycaps/coffee-shop-pbt @stray tiger

I just noticed they were designed by Hipyo lol

Was showing them cause they match that case you have

[tropic urchin]

i almost typed "those have a nice color" until I saw that comment mr cam

thank you for saving me

[prisma notch]

are the v2 new ?

[tropic urchin]

very ewwwww

[polar girder]

Not light enough

[stray tiger]

Thanks man but I ended up ordering 2 kits from osume yesterday that I think will match. Let me get the links

@harsh dove https://osume.com/products/cafe-rose-keycaps and https://osume.com/products/dalgona-keycaps

[kind helm]

is osume us site?

[stray tiger]

Also grabbed these for another potential build - https://osume.com/products/little-ghost-keycaps

[stray tiger]

They are based in Canada but are opening a US location too

[kind helm]

interesting, was just wondering if they have blackfriday sell

[stray tiger]

I've always loved their designs and color choices but never owned any of their stuff. I plan to try their keyboard display stands one day

[kind helm]

i think their stuff a bit expensive at their original price. but i kinda want to try their font

[stray tiger]

The price is mainly why I haven't tried anything but they had a sale yesterday and I managed to get a price mistake I think.

Didn't get the artisan in the end

[kind helm]

yee i just saw, having a spring sell rn. honestly 70+ still rough for pbt to me. but their really do have like gud color options and interesting font

[kind helm]

if for some magically reason you can remember, can you @ me when you post pic for their keycaps?

[stray tiger]

Will do. Not sure when they will arrive, haven't received a shipping notification yet.

[kind helm]

https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1fD5ezjEC8 wooting on bilibili now

getting hella hate in the comments

[tidal frigate]

Can you screenshot and translate

I dont wanna give china more info

[stray tiger]

Comments aren't that bad. Always a few trolls but I've seen worse in YouTube video comments or reddit.

[tidal frigate]

Reddit is worse

[stray tiger]

Way worse haha

[kind helm]

a really fair comment imo

magnetic axis == HE switch

coil == competition

[uneven cradle]

Ah the old 0.01 RT argument

[tulip rapids]

hell yeah brother cream it up

[thorn zealot]

Nah I was half joking

[harsh dove]

Ah very nice, yeah I was looking at Dalgona recently

[thorn zealot]

But I do need to try pp/pom plates

[thorn zealot]

Aren’t these the caps he said took him like a year to make

[fluid ravine]

The phases are maxxing!

MarbleFather!!!!

[harsh dove]

I wanna try Fluxes on POM, I liked POM in the 80HE tbh

[harsh dove]

Not sure, I don't follow him like that

[tidal frigate]

@harsh dove are you getting holy80?

[harsh dove]

No

Not a fan of the Holy cases

I prefer my boards fully enclosed

[uneven cradle]

It's a cool looking case but the sound goes out the window with all those holes

[harsh dove]

Yeah if I didn't care about sound, I'd maybe get one

[thorn zealot]

Ngl I used to watch some his vids like a year or 2 ago

I just remembered he made a vid abt those caps

[glacial wind]

It’s nice to know weirdos that obsess over unusable settings are plentiful in China as well

But I guess that does make sense when they invented the literal charts for the unusable settings

[tulip rapids]

same

[harsh dove]

They invented the Placebo Maxxing Charts

[indigo river]

For the Duhuk Herz HE, does it matter if I select 700gs or 900gs?

[tardy obsidian]

man i wish wooting sold a version of the optimum keycaps with the letters on it lol

i cant find any other keycap with similar colors like that

[thorn zealot]

If u have a high budget/can have abs keycaps maybe look at gmk modern materials concrete base

[tardy obsidian]

those look nice but not my taste - something of a darker shade would be better

i reallllly wish these were still in stock

[fluid ravine]

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256802911162965.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2usa4itemAdapt

These?

You can search up grey gradient key caps @tardy obsidian

You might like those ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[thorn zealot]

Yeah I knew the gmk ones were a lil lighter

[thorn zealot]

Have u tried ur copper weight yet

Wait nvm I’m a brick

[fluid ravine]

Shhhh

It's sleeping

[thorn zealot]

Do u snuggle with it

[fluid ravine]

Youre a brick

[fluid ravine]

Yes

[thorn zealot]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-stupid-stupid-town-hey-buddy-spongebob-gif-6574682199670721484

[thorn zealot]

I’m assuming it didn’t change the sound much

Since it’s on the outside not inside

[fluid ravine]

Yes

It's heavier doe

and looks nicer

[night atlas]

has anyone tried the durock rock switches?

and the everglide wukong

[kind helm]

you have a comparison :3

i never tried cf backplate

[kind helm]

sound comparison i meant :3

[fluid ravine]

Theres no difference 😭

[kind helm]

LOL

its like 6x times heavier than cf backplate

cam measured

cf 25g, coppa 150g

[calm pulsar]

cope

[robust siren]

a carbon fiber weight… what an interesting concept

[fluid ravine]

CF is on stock Leggera

[robust siren]

im gonna pretend like ik what this is as i havent looked in this channel in over 4 months

and im afraid to spend more on my 60he

[fluid ravine]

The carbon fiber came with the case itself, I bought the copper back weight seperately and I'm now using it cus I like it more

[robust siren]

i shall be the first to have gray optimum blanks on a black tofu60 case (i havent seen any other yet)

[fluid ravine]

I think I've seen it once on wootstation

Ngl

[robust siren]

ive been trying to find a pic

and i couldnt so i just ordered it

[robust siren]

black tofu

You can imagine it yourself kek

[robust siren]

tbh thats not bad

1of1 keyboard tuesday

[tawdry tree]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

both work just fine on the 80HE

just for the older 60HE, 900Gs works better iirc

[thick pelican]

hey im looking to make my first custom keyboard, definately with rapid trigger, how much can i expect it to cost around?
like whats the range

[sacred elm]

If you want to build wooting 80he with alu case it will be around 340-350$

80he module 165$
owlab ti he switches 50$
gt80 or zinc alloy case 110-120$

[thick pelican]

would the 60he+ be better price wise? also im assuming this is usd

[sacred elm]

60he+ module is 25$ cheaper

yes this is USD

[thick pelican]

okay i just checked the website, 60he+ is a lot higher cause of the case price

[sacred elm]

if you want 60% you can build venom, its cheaper than wooting but doesnt come with warranty

and has a bit worse software

fully built venom is cheaper than wooting

[thick pelican]

thank you! ill take a look at it

the 80he build doesnt seem too bad either, might be able to work around that as well

[sacred elm]

venom is only pcb, youll need to buy case, plate, switches, stabilizers, keycaps separately

[sacred elm]

if you can spend 350$ then build 80he with gt80/zinc case with owlab ti he switches

you will like it

[thick pelican]

😭

just an example build but thats so expensive

[sacred elm]

yea wooting is expensive because you pay for 4 years warranty and product support

[last oar]

bruh the ur ice ultra out of stock everywhere?

i put a order on them april 15th snd the still havnt shipped i sent them a msg and they said out of stock we dont know when they will be restocked-.-

pain

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EwFnuAg

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EvSHUeg

Are these the same just a different color of the switches?

[indigo river]

There is a slight difference

In the bottom-out force

https://a.aliexpress.com/_ol299kx

I bought from here and they have shipped them now

If you go through the ”coins page” you can get an additional 30% off on them

@last oar

[last oar]

when did you order them?

[indigo river]

Yesterday

I ordered both the pink and the ice but they shipped the ice faster so I cancelled the pink

[last oar]

alright, putting a order on them

[indigo river]

Don’t forget the coinsss

[last oar]

did not, are these the same as the ones from krepublic?

[indigo river]

Yeye it’s the same

Or well, the titles suggests so atleast

The seller has good reviews so I thought why the hell not

Should I also order Duhuk Herz HE? 🤔

[sacred elm]

get owlab ti he

[indigo river]

They seem nice, probably will try them after the UR Ice comes

[last oar]

u have them?

[sacred elm]

No, I dont have them, im recommending them because others tried and theyre very good

[last oar]

interesting

clacky tho arnt they?

[sacred elm]

Yea, ur ice ultras gonna be a bit deeper

[last oar]

yeah, guess ill just wait until they’re in stock then

[sacred elm]

gonna try fluxes in ~2 days

[ruby elk]

Hey guys, does anyone know of any gh60 cases that are not the tofu60, holy60, or alumaze?

[uneven cradle]

[little glen]

Gt60, salvation

[lime yew]

https://wooting.io/product/optimum-case-60?Color=Gray

[last oar]

i did end up ordering the pink ones from krepublic lol

the difference.

[last oar]

should still sound the same as the clears ones right?

[gusty patio]

that tweet talking about tofu 60/65/tkl, maybe it wont be too difficult to find a case for a venom he pcb then. if those drop soon then i can pretty much do any size i want

[trail bane]

Leggera case is heavier then my fatass 80HE😭

[round sparrow]

new holy 80 pics should be coming today

since kbdfans is at the zfx meetup

[trail bane]

Ping me pls

[empty hamlet]

is green dragon switches any good?

[tropic urchin]

Just a recolor of Jade gaming

[last oar]

@harsh dove you got any info on the pink ones? clear ones wasnt in stock, to me they look the same? so i put down a order on them. any info would be great

[fallen pecan]

i asked UR cs about that, they said the sakuras are just a recolor but they could be wrong

[thorn zealot]

Im pretty sure the pink ones are basically the same as the ur ice ones

[last oar]

yeah looks like it right? only the bottom force that differs from what i can tell when i read about it

everything else looks the same to me

[stray tiger]

If you use the pink one you will have a more feminine touch when gaming

[last oar]

oh okay

order cancelled.

[thorn zealot]

🥀

[last oar]

looks like i have to wait for the clear ones to get restocked...

[stray tiger]

Nothing wrong with a feminine touch!

[thorn zealot]

Pink is a very cool color

[last oar]

ofc not just that i prefer masculine!

[last oar]

yeah i think they look great tbh

those switches atleast

[stray tiger]

If you want masculine get these https://unikeyboards.com/products/duhuk-lumia-herz-he-magnetic-switch-10pcs

[last oar]

already ordered the pink ul ice

[harsh dove]

But these have milky pink tops

UR Ice Sakuras have clear pink tops

Milky is always better

[last oar]

…

my mind get lost

when trying to pick a switch

[glacial wind]

@harsh dove I used your photo for the switch page btw. it was very pretty

[sacred elm]

bad photo it wasnt taken with sony 16mm f1.8

[glacial wind]

that's true, unfortunately sony korea is out of stock of 16mm f1.8 for now and i have to wait for more stock

[chilly mural]

Fire pic

[sweet oak]

guess the wooting community needs to come together for us to all have some high quality lenses

[chilly mural]

Literally. It can burn wallet

[glacial wind]

see this is why I try to help shafie every day by moving his tiktok algo to lens reviews

[stray tiger]

Tell me you like lube pooling up on the bottom of your PCB

I do like the idea of this though. Direct PCB magnet for the placebo maxxers

[trail bane]

POM

[chilly mural]

DAMN

now this is extreme open bottom

[stray tiger]

1. See Wooting Modding discord channel for information on which switch meta is currently being pushed that day

[stray tiger]

Now you just need to release a bottomless switch and make it even better

[chilly mural]

nah, just make the magnet static and just move the housing

[gusty patio]

Saw that holy80 tweet but not really my thing with all those holes in it

[trail bane]

How it looks?

Any pics?

The best version of this type of switch (kb-37) is the Fuji dual rail or magnetic fox switch. I also don't see it fitting on anything besides those type of pcb's unless you got a keyboard that just has holes in them

[ruby elk]

[stray tiger]

The caps I tried didn't quite a scratch the itch

[calm pulsar]

ah I think you posted some light brown/white ones, are those for this build?

[stray tiger]

Yeah I ordered some light earth tones caps from osume

[harsh dove]

Why is there a T-shirt in the thumbnail lol

[stray tiger]

T shirt mod. Polyfill is out

[tropic urchin]

Samurai ftw

[harsh dove]

Interesting lol

[calm pulsar]

yeah none of those hit for me personally
samurai is the closest but the way alphas are different from the case scratches my brain

in a bad way

[harsh dove]

Feel like PBTFans Emma could look good on there

[ruby elk]

My favorite is pbt fans lucy

[calm pulsar]

I remember how you changed from emma to a gmk set and it sounded so much better on poms or some switch you were streaming

wooting poms I think

[tropic urchin]

Fuck dem OG Poms 🥀

[harsh dove]

Yeah GMK just better

Their ABS is unmatched

[calm pulsar]

abs maxxing

[harsh dove]

Cause Emma is ABS too

But GMK sounds better

[calm pulsar]

yeah couldn't be caught fking with such a wobbly switch

[tropic urchin]

That’s why dad went out for cigarettes still don’t have fluxes

[calm pulsar]

I mentioned this a lot but I think it's cause pbtfans do 2 layers of plastic instead of just having the main shell be part of the stem like on gmk

so the 2 layers give a dampened kinda sound, which may or may not work in different builds

[harsh dove]

Yeah I (us) wasnt a fan of them on that frog mini build on stream

[glacial wind]

Wooting Mods Switch Guide resource is done: https://wootingmods.com/switchguide/ - a lot more things I need to tweak on switch list and switch info + have to get homepage setup properly, but workable version is ready at least

I 100% don't have every one of the switch recolors and such listed either because there's a billion of them, but should have most of them. I think I need to add some of the everglide new stuff in particular

[sacred elm]

W sticker

[glacial wind]

Let me know if anyone knows any stores needed to be added to the 'where to buy' section. I added particularly the stores that sell HE stuff and left out the ones that didn't, but might have missed some

[tulip rapids]

if i want to buy the ttc pom magneto and swap out for a heavier springs. Will the wooting springs be fine or should i get it from somewhere else

[glacial wind]

you want even heavier than the ones from wootings ttc poms?

or you have existing og poms?

[tulip rapids]

i do not but i like the red and white combo

but i know wooting has heavier springs

35g on the og and 50g wooting iirc

[tawdry tree]

Prob should add UK. KeyGem for EU has some magnetic options as well, so would add that under EU.

[tulip rapids]

oh sorry i read that wrong that i just want 50g

[glacial wind]

i'm not sure if 50g for that type of spring is available unless there's something on aliexpress

[tawdry tree]

The Wooting springs have a different diameter than KoMs’, they work but you might experience some sound inconsistencies.

I wouldn’t recommend it.

[glacial wind]

you're kind of stuck between the two in that ttc pom og is 45g and ttc wooting pom is 55g

[tulip rapids]

oh okay what you guys recommend then ?

that i can only choose between the two huh?

[glacial wind]

if you want closer to traditional switches like mx cherry then go with wootings

if you want lighter feel then go non wooting ttc pom

[tawdry tree]

Could go with a different switch entirely that is compatible with 3rd party springs.

[tulip rapids]

okay ty i guess i'll go wooting i hate lighter feeling

[tawdry tree]

Woot’s KoMs are already close to 50g tho

[glacial wind]

Oh i remember keygem. I was going to add them then i checked what magnetic switches they had for sale and it was only one switch lol

[tulip rapids]

i have geon raws 40g right now and i hate how light they are

[glacial wind]

i think iirc they only had jade pro and that was it so I didn't add them lol

[tulip rapids]

might buy 50g springs and swap it out or just buy a fresh batch of 50g geon raws with ttc pom

[tawdry tree]

They had two options before. Still good though as you can’t get them anywhere else except for ali

[tulip rapids]

thank you guys for your advice

[glacial wind]

max gaming sells jade pro now i think

[tawdry tree]

Just Black Knights now

For the UK, I think it was mechmods that had some magnetic options

[tulip rapids]

what switches were you thinking of? Im just curious

i seen people in here hype up duhuks (sorry if i misspelled it )

[tawdry tree]

Nope. If they did, not anymore.

[tawdry tree]

Any really. Most are compatible with 3rd party springs.

Duhuks have a quiet top out

The Herz ones would be a bit closer to Raw HEs

Could go with something like the Ice Ultras

Very minimal wobble on all of them.

[sacred elm]

hype for a week

sorry 5 days

[calm pulsar]

[trail bane]

Hmm

22 dallars for 110pcs if you buying from ali

[sacred elm]

water costs more bro 🥀

[trail bane]

If you buy directly from the factory, it’s a dollar per 50 pieces, but that’s wholesale.

Mine was ≈600 for sure maybe more because currently with cerakeys she’s 1kilo

[sacred elm]

no, yours was 800 too

[trail bane]

Because the B-set keycaps weigh 330 grams.

Am i stupid asf

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind why you didnt recommend raeds for thock maxxers.

[steel ibex]

“Wooting Preacher”

[harsh dove]

I was going to ask about Raeds under the silent section

But I know he said he wasn’t done with the site and will update it more obviously

[trail bane]

I’m even a little jealous I couldn’t take part in it. Gotta tighten up and try to help out.

[tawdry tree]

should add cam’s sound test with it as well. so people know it’s original thock, rather than tiktok thock/marble/creamy/whatever the fuck

[tulip rapids]

theyre shit?

[stray tiger]

Reads aren't thocky under any definition. They are muted but not silent

[trail bane]

Balancing wires on stabs, different plates

Because literally nobody knows how to do this on tiktok

[sacred elm]

people know thock from those videos and nobody cares how exactly thock sounded in 1838 BC

[tawdry tree]

Raeds are the original thock. Basically exactly that. Since then the meaning of thock has gotten a bit lost but many that are into mech specifically still go by the original meaning it seems.

[tawdry tree]

kinda yeah but that goes for pretty much all the terms haha

[sacred elm]

where can I hear "original thock"

just curious.

[tawdry tree]

on yt

[stray tiger]

Few if any in this channel right now have been involved in the hobby as long as I have and no matter how far back I go, I'd never describe Raeds as thocky.

[sacred elm]

no, there are just other alternatives without weird muted top out sound

[tawdry tree]

It didn’t originate from Topre?

I’m pretty sure it’s accurate that it did

from other people and YT

not from being active in the hobby back then haha

[stray tiger]

Oh it did but the Raeds dont sound or feel like topre, despite the goal

[tawdry tree]

🤔

Wasn’t that AEBoards’ whole goal

[harsh dove]

Yeah they aren’t exactly silent

[stray tiger]

Have you typed on Raeds and on a real topre switch?

[tawdry tree]

to match topre

[harsh dove]

They still have a sound to them

[tawdry tree]

On Reads yeah, real topre a long time ago

can’t compare them myself, just going off of what I’ve found so far

[stray tiger]

Maybe the new version will be closer, but the reds I have now aren't close.

[tawdry tree]

I think it’s close enough to be able to fall under the same term. Raeds seem to have the same thuddyness as some topre switches

most even

[fluid ravine]

There is a range of course but from the Topre videos on YT, it’s in the same ballpark.

I’d say the range is smaller than that of clack 😄

mmmh i see

[fluid ravine]

Lowk, in my personal opinion and preference, I think duhuk bottom out sound is the best for me

[tulip rapids]

what does it sound like?

[fluid ravine]

Although I don't like the top out, bottom out just smacks

[fluid ravine]

Sharp and loud

Def made for clack enjoyers

Like POM, flux, and what not clacks sure,theyre loud and high pitched, but to me they sound a bit plasticky of some sort.

Not saying they're bad at all no, I still like em, but just smth abt nylon+fiberglass hits

[tulip rapids]

does anyone have a video of doing a sound test with them?

[fluid ravine]

I do

But I'm not in my PC rn

Hey Guys, I tried LekkersV1, LekkersV2 and then Wooting TTC POMs, the latest are way better in wooble and sound, but are too stiff for me, which switches are you recommending now?

[fluid ravine]

All of my recordings are in my PC 😭

[tulip rapids]

all good

[fluid ravine]

A few steps and a push of a button is all it takes

[tulip rapids]

ttc poms have the best stem stability but you need to lube them

But I do not thing that will change the typing experience making it softer, or did it for you?

[stray tiger]

Could always try the Owlab TI's. Very good for the money

[tulip rapids]

just changes it how it sounds

i would recommend looking of videos of each switch youre interested in and then choose what you like

[mental salmon]

Thanks Father, any recommended store I can buy them in the US?

[tulip rapids]

i dont own ttc poms yet (but i willlll)

when you see the fedex truck drive past your house but you're expecting a package today

I checked the specs, and looked fine in paper, but sadly for me I could not get used to the feel, I was playing Ender Magnolia and it was fatiguing
