[ionic breach]

next month my parents wants to go on a cruise

[fluid ravine]

oof i would not survive

[ionic breach]

which would be my first time

[fluid ravine]

a place with higher elevation than where i am

i would die

i would suffocate to death

LMAO

gg

[calm pulsar]

[ionic breach]

[calm pulsar]

wow thats nice

[fluid ravine]

literally^

[fluid ravine]

damn i wanna go on a cruise

it's been so long since i went on one

[ionic breach]

ye i have never done it

[calm pulsar]

never been on one😭
havent been at sea for years too, but this changes soon hehe

[fluid ravine]

only thing i remember back when i went on a cruise for the first time as a kid was i shat myself and the pool water was salty af, like the ocean water

heh

[ionic breach]

i wonder if i can play some poker

[fluid ravine]

no shame

[calm pulsar]

lmaoo

[tulip rapids]

that mofo pushed u

[chilly mural]

Cruise sounds fun

[fluid ravine]

(note: i dont like using public bathrooms at all so my goal was to find my way back into the room which our room was like the 2nd floor of the cruise and i was at nearly the top. But since i was so young i didnt know how to navigate my way through the place and the elevator was full so i just booked it down the stairs holding my shit together. And ohhh boyyyyy was I lost. So lost to the point i shat myself when i finally made it to the bathroom.)

no shame

my parents were gonna call security on me cus i wasn't found in the public bathroom

[calm pulsar]

maybe they just grab water right from the ocean? lol

[fluid ravine]

yeah they did

most likely

but since it was my first time at the cruise, i thought it was pool water

so like chlorine and everything in there

[ionic breach]

they must have

[fluid ravine]

one lick to the lips

boom

[ionic breach]

i doubt they have a giant ass tank

[fluid ravine]

SALT

[fluid ravine]

lmfao

[polar girder]

What did I just walk in to

[fluid ravine]

we're the fishy

[chilly mural]

And maybe poop if they dont filter it

[ionic breach]

considering how long some cruises are

[fluid ravine]

yo 😭

[calm pulsar]

we going on a cruise

[fluid ravine]

and i just dropped a cruise story of me

[calm pulsar]

at first I thought the story was somehow related to the salty water☠️

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

it just the two things i remember from my cruise experience

lmao

pool uses ocean water

and i shat my self

[calm pulsar]

this sounds like it should in one of those meme videos where people say weird things and there is beautiful nature and music on the screen

like this lol
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WBE17F23564?feature=share

[fluid ravine]

HAHA

[ionic breach]

oo the wooting new stuff will be announced tmr?

damn thats so soon

i thought they would wait till computex

[calm pulsar]

is this confirmed? people said the new stuff will be on computex in 2 weeks, but the owlabs stuff will be very soon

[ionic breach]

its what mansen said

[calm pulsar]

berry nice

[ionic breach]

looks like the raffle will also be 9th

unless he was talking abt that

[tulip rapids]

for the owlabs case?

[ionic breach]

ye

[tulip rapids]

where do i sign up?

[ionic breach]

no clue

[ionic breach]

it could just be the raffle tmr

ive also heard smt might be announced at computex on a stream somewhere

[calm pulsar]

maybe they will post more teasers prior to computex

[ionic breach]

my wildest guess would be a wooting tenz edition set

with him being a partner recently and him making a mice

[calm pulsar]

the latest twitter post has to be some 60ish percent though, and people said tenz uses a 80he

[ionic breach]

true

[thorn zealot]

Ngl imo the owlabs case is not that special

It just looks unique

[calm pulsar]

to me looks overdone, and the mounting is not promising, and the price is too
but its probably also not going to be made in huge quantities

[fluid ravine]

yeah to me it's all for the looks

the gimick to me doesn't do much

price is obv a

[glacial wind]

that’s kind of all cases past a certain point. You start paying for exclusivity and looks

[fluid ravine]

true...

tofu 3.0

[glacial wind]

I do think the owlabs look is nicer on bigger cases though because the “busy” is spread out more

like vento and jelly looked nicer with same look spread out over a 75-80% for me

[fluid ravine]

like honestly i do fw this

[thorn zealot]

The tofu design too boring for me now

[fluid ravine]

i mean tofu is minimal so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[thorn zealot]

But agar on the other hand

All those curves

[glacial wind]

I do like the minimal look of that new leaked wooting case/board on Twitter

[fluid ravine]

top view i love thin side bezels (with or even without curves) and a bit thicker top and bottom bezels

[uneven cradle]

We up high boys

[fluid ravine]

Jump

[ionic breach]

do it

[fluid ravine]

The voices are telling you to jump

[glacial wind]

Oh hopper at lotte tower

[fluid ravine]

he hopped his way to the top

gg

world record vert

[uneven cradle]

Yeah pretty neat

[glacial wind]

For a mere $25 million he could buy a nice penthouse there

[thorn zealot]

Nice nb 550s

[glacial wind]

They have a really nice hotel in that building too actually. Fancy folks stay there, it’s like $400-500 a night

[fluid ravine]

couldve put that money towards a lense or camera smh

unwise money usage

[glacial wind]

you’ll need a nice 70-200 lens for that view too

[calm pulsar]

where do I purchase it

[glacial wind]

So i assume the $2k lens is included as part of required hotel fee

[uneven cradle]

Was also at the baseball last night, Koreans love some baseball

[fluid ravine]

i just got ear raped

gg

but cooooooooooooooooool

:0

[calm pulsar]

same

[fluid ravine]

like my iems were IN THERE

listening to music while doing work 😭

[glacial wind]

Well @sacred elm is a bit paranoid so he only buys from official Sony store here https://www.sony.co.kr/lenses/products/sel70200gm2

[calm pulsar]

got teleported to Korea for a second there

[thorn zealot]

I don’t have to watch Korean/japanese baseball since they are half the dodgers roster

[uneven cradle]

[thorn zealot]

They literally have the Japanese avengers of baseball

[glacial wind]

They take their baseball serious. Baseball and soccer

[thorn zealot]

Honestly baseball culture is better in Korea/japan than us

[stray tiger]

False. They are Dominican - https://youtu.be/5-uIwpo0dCU

[thorn zealot]

Just from what I’ve seen

[uneven cradle]

Catch me at the louis v

[calm pulsar]

ah well, most of the official Sony stores here in Russia are now out of stock of pretty much any goods, and no new shipments come in due to sanctions

[thorn zealot]

Oh no

[calm pulsar]

this calls for a $5000 wooting x louis v case

[glacial wind]

If you want a good Philly cheesesteak while you’re in gangnam check out wiir Philadelphia in apgujeong on way back

Best cheesesteak in Seoul

[uneven cradle]

Oh yeah, yifang was recommending some audio place around there as well

[ionic breach]

@fluid ravine yo everything good over there?

[calm pulsar]

love these dudes

[tulip rapids]

has weight in it too

[ionic breach]

what am i hearing about a blue rain in texas?

[tulip rapids]

wdym

[fluid ravine]

huh? wsp?

[ionic breach]

[fluid ravine]

dafuq

when was this

[calm pulsar]

tf is blue rainfall

[fluid ravine]

chemtrail

[ionic breach]

like a day or two lmao

[uneven cradle]

Big minion fans at Lotte world

[ionic breach]

somekind of conspiracy theory that just popped up in texas

[glacial wind]

You missed the photo leak on their Twitter

It’s crazy how popular minions are nowadays with kids. It’s like out of nowhere minions became the it thing

It’s so popular I saw they built minions world over Nintendo world in the singapore universal studios

[thorn zealot]

No its def Gatorade blue

Go outside and take a few swigs

If u don’t come back we will know what happened

[fluid ravine]

say hi to geon for me while you're at it

frog boy sends a:

[calm pulsar]

and send regards from all Wooting discord

[paper bloom]

wait where is this

[glacial wind]

What if blue rain is a secret healing formula for frogsons shoulder

He needs to embrace the blue rain and dance in it with open arms

[uneven cradle]

Lotte World

[paper bloom]

Looks like

[tulip rapids]

tell me in dms? 😄

[paper bloom]

Jewel wadafak

[lime yew]

Only thing that had been said in the past livestream is that the Owlab webpage will go live tomorrow.

[ionic breach]

computex then 👀

[lime yew]

Would be nice right 👀

[calm pulsar]

[untold wigeon]

[tulip rapids]

[tulip rapids]

do you know what time good sir?

[glacial wind]

It’s just in their Twitter, you can go check it out

I’m sure sander is sitting in Japan somewhere drinking a culturally appropriate matcha green tea and editing the announcement video

[tulip rapids]

oh i just saw the new calder body pillow

ty

[sacred elm]

lol

[glacial wind]

Did you buy tickets for LCK btw @uneven cradle - seems like something for the list to watch an LCK game while you’re here

The s tier game always sold out instantly but there’s always a few tickets leftover for a less popular team games

[sacred elm]

so new teaser today, I am so ready

[uneven cradle]

We tried but it's been impossible to get tickets even for the bad teams

[glacial wind]

Some tickets refund and open up https://www.globalinterpark.com/en/product/25004095 there’s a few tickets for kt dnf tomorrow

[ionic breach]

damn 20 bucks?

[glacial wind]

That’s actually higher than it used to be at like $12 lol

[ionic breach]

thats really nice

no wonder they are losing so much money

[glacial wind]

The stadium itself is pretty small so I think ticket sales were never their focus

[ionic breach]

for overwatch lans, they just book an auditorium from korea uni i think

[glacial wind]

t1 is hosting their t1 tournament later at the giant stadium that valorant champs was hosted at apparently though - that seems to be a new model that popular teams are doing now to make extra money

Good news @sacred elm - my 24-70 Sony gm ii lens has shipped which means your order is shipping soon too. it’s time to book your ticket to Australia to pick up your lens

[sacred elm]

Great news, cant wait!

[peak breach]

Looking at the teaser i hope it’s a revamped 60

Since wooting said they dont want to use the strap on other keyboards

[sacred elm]

or 65😳 im down

[sweet oak]

Oh no I’m going down the headphone rabbit hole again

Reeeeally thinking of moving to the edition xs from the 560s, but ill need an amp 😭

[uneven cradle]

I got some of these bad boys recently

[sweet oak]

Those are seexy 🫦

[uneven cradle]

Yeah can't beat em at the moment on price for closed backs

[sacred elm]

I need to get nice iems and a mic

My poor cloud alpha is dying

[calm pulsar]

I need an amp for my open backs

[sweet oak]

If i get an dac/amp that can do my headphones and speakers then i can at least run my 560s for a lil while longer

Before i eventually cave

[sacred elm]

😳

[sweet oak]

I hate swipe typing sometimes

[calm pulsar]

oh wait Im wearing exactly those headphones rn lol

is there any dac/amp you're considering👀

[sweet oak]

Not really, just entered the deep pool with no swimming aids

I know itll most definitely be better than my mobo realtek one, just need it to run both speakers and headphones

[uneven cradle]

So Meze Empyrean II's it is

[sweet oak]

You are making me TREMBLE

[peak breach]

They said no buckle on anything besides the 60

[calm pulsar]

🙏

[night atlas]

i'm sure some of y'all saw this already, what do we think this is a recolor of?

[peak breach]

They only have 1 switch they recolor in 400 ways

[sacred elm]

theres also sakura full pom version

but you cant buy it for now

[peak breach]

Maybe the teaser isnt about the keyboard

[night atlas]

ooo u got pics or a link

[sacred elm]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1366609242609422336/1369593090221805658/mmexport1746606825596.jpg?ex=681d1536&is=681bc3b6&hm=3f691fb12cc41186242523d432903713401e3a5ab4c30e25c67fe19efc1a710e&

[night atlas]

interesting, those are HE switches?

[sacred elm]

yes

[harsh dove]

I ordered some more stabs but here you go for now

[sacred elm]

full pom jade pro

or maybe improved jade pro

[harsh dove]

@fluid ravine

[calm pulsar]

bom bade bro

[night atlas]

i see i see

https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-magnetic-jade-sakura-he-switch-set?VariantsId=11159 this mf overpriced

[calm pulsar]

MX better

[harsh dove]

[night atlas]

roughly $1.50 per switch

[sacred elm]

They are releasing new switches in a month, they said its completely different

[calm pulsar]

full pom innovation never seen before

[fluid ravine]

Better

[sacred elm]

nah its not that

[harsh dove]

I ordered some YIKB

never tried em

[fluid ravine]

Ayyyy

Bet

[night atlas]

makes me think it's a jade/jade pro recolor

[night atlas]

the pom one?

[harsh dove]

I need some more geon stem spacers lowkey

[calm pulsar]

they require a masters degree to assemble the first time around

[sacred elm]

no, something else

we dont know yet

[night atlas]

i c

[sacred elm]

There was survey, you could design the switch, vote for switch materials and stuff

[night atlas]

ooooooo that one, yes i recall that

[sacred elm]

They are doing second round of voting today i think

[night atlas]

wonder how it's gonna turn out

if it's a non-jade pro clone i'll be impressed

[sacred elm]

It will have different materials, so wont be a clone

[untold wigeon]

when will there be owlab ti pom

or is it patented by gateron already?

[sacred elm]

☠️

[glacial wind]

honestly the whole pom thing sometimes gets used by brands as an excuse to not lube lol

[calm pulsar]

nylon ti he would go hard

(maybe)

[glacial wind]

they always cite the old theory about pom being self lubricating which isn't directly applicable to pom used for switches then say it's self lubricating

[night atlas]

https://x.com/IMicroplas86174/status/1915251241065865608

ieatmicroplastics (@IMicroplas86174) on X

Phylina Thunderbolt HE
Initial Force: 35+/-5gf
Total Travel: 3.3+/-0.3mm

The feel is similar to Geon Raw or Jade Pro. Wobble is very minimal even when pressed down fully. This is one of the best sounding Hall effect switches. They cost approximately 50cents/switch (AUD).

X · Apr 24, 2025, 3:47 AM

[sacred elm]

nylon top bottom, pom stem, tighter jade pro. call me and im there

[untold wigeon]

idc at the end of the day, i will spring swap

[night atlas]

do u also buy longer springs w/every switch set?

cause i def do lol

love the snap back

[glacial wind]

honestly all of the ones in this generation are the same-ish thing

[sweet oak]

Ok kinda looking at the atom 2 bundle atm

[glacial wind]

it's become better to just look at the generations of switches than just one particular switch as being better/best

[night atlas]

ya looks the same as the jade green dragons or whatever

oh yea it's not that deep for me, just posted something i saw on twitter is all

[glacial wind]

whether it's owlabs ti or lumia herz or the new ur ultra updated one for example all 3 are perfectly fine and sound good

they just roll out the tightness and feel to all the switches built on the new molds whenever they do it

[calm pulsar]

this would look good next to my guitar oriented audio interface

[night atlas]

stoked for my ur sakuras to come in

[glacial wind]

i do think the phylina or whatever picked a god awful name though lol

[untold wigeon]

ye

i used 62.5g from geon on my jade pro, geon lucifer

[glacial wind]

phylina does not roll off the tongue for marketing

[untold wigeon]

and 72g (initial, not bottom out) on owlab ti

[night atlas]

goddamn lmao

i'm a 35 or 45 kinda guy

[glacial wind]

one interesting thing when i was testing out mics for recording soundtests is my camera mic was actually better than my $500 mic for giving true reflection of the sound

[night atlas]

interesting

[glacial wind]

the expensive mic cleaned up the sound and boosted it a bit too well

[untold wigeon]

maybe bottom house 83-86

[glacial wind]

i'm sure you could tweak the soundwaves and such but it's funny that the default signature of it isn't ideal for switch recording

[night atlas]

i assume it's settings from your audio mixing whether it's thru an interface/software?

[glacial wind]

it's just some mics have a warmer signature for voices and such

like shure sm7b makes you sound deeper

[night atlas]

i see i see

yea was gonna ask if u had a sm7b lool

[glacial wind]

which is why everyone podcasting etc loves that mic

[night atlas]

podcaster mic

what kinda arm do u use w/iut

[glacial wind]

elgato low profile arm

it's honestly goated, low profile is the way

[night atlas]

my thoughts exactly

i just switched to a low profile arm

not too long ago

[fringe quarry]

modmic

[night atlas]

it was weird in terms of positioning it initially, but after that it was way better

[glacial wind]

i want the newer one that now has spring loaded adjustments built into it so you can move it easily up and down without any screws

i haven't been able to justify it though since current one works fine

[night atlas]

oh i just got some cheap shit lmao

[night atlas]

me w/every new HE switch

except i justify it somehow

[calm pulsar]

my bundled fifine arm is holding on to dear life

[glacial wind]

they basically combined it with the same mechanism as the popular rode psa1 arms but now it's low profile as well https://www.elgato.com/ww/en/p/wave-mic-arm-pro-black

[fallen pecan]

schiit magni + modi stacks nicely too

[night atlas]

once i get a raise at my job imma cop a nicer mic

and arm

loool

[ionic breach]

gmk mint chocolate

[ionic breach]

u got a sound test?

i joined the stream as soon as it ended

[sacred elm]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[ionic breach]

thats quite good

what plate is that tho

[sacred elm]

I think he used fr4 on stream

[ionic breach]

ye

wonder how it would sound with a softer plate

[harsh dove]

alu

not fr4

[left depot]

waiting until its timeeee

[prime gate]

I have it and is ok

[sacred elm]

Wake me up when theres new teaser😴

[chilly mural]

What's this?

[fallen pecan]

exclusive switch launching with the EWEADN Deep boards

[sacred elm]

3mm travel?

[sweet oak]

Ok update, probably will just go for a dongle so i can bring it around with me

[untold wigeon]

what is that

[trail bane]

"Innovators" won’t be releasing plates for the Holy80 for now.

[prime orbit]

For dumb people. These good or nah

[trail bane]

Ig mid

[prime orbit]

Kk

My POM survive another day

[chilly mural]

If you like jade pro

[lapis raven]

[prime orbit]

I like what’s the best

So I’ll pass on Jade pro like

[prime orbit]

All day

[tall hollow]

I wonder, should I try my best to actually break one of them?

[sweet oak]

Trust me bro, get Mango HEs

[prime orbit]

Listen

I already have…

[sacred elm]

Woke up, no teaser, back to sleep 😴

[prime orbit]

I’m also the guy who broke 3 pc plate so not surprising

[tall hollow]

Awh rip

lol

[tall hollow]

Now how does that happen,

[prime orbit]

Taking switches out

[lusty crow]

where i can find this keycaps?

[calm pulsar]

pbtfans vior

or some clones of it I guess

[tall hollow]

[prime orbit]

Live and ya learn

My POM plate can’t break on me

Surely…

[tall hollow]

Only one way to find out!

[prime orbit]

YESSIR

😭😭

[fallen pecan]

that's what happens when you use account bound switches

[prime orbit]

Ah

Makes sense now

[untold wigeon]

rip to my 80he

[calm pulsar]

durock stabs arrived that im going to salvage for their black wires

[untold wigeon]

:(

[untold wigeon]

for what keeb

[calm pulsar]

Im doing an mx build where every possible part is black
cherry mx blacks, black pc plate etc

[untold wigeon]

HAHAHA

[calm pulsar]

black on black keycaps

[untold wigeon]

[untold wigeon]

yesterday’s teaser

HAHAHAHHAHA

[calm pulsar]

ic ic

there will be more teasers likely hehe

[untold wigeon]

today?

[calm pulsar]

dunno

[untold wigeon]

just imagine after my 80he is sold,
the teaser wasn’t about a new keyboard

how pissed i will be

[fallen pecan]

gonna see more at computex

[sacred elm]

😴

[chilly mural]

cable going to be black too?

[untold wigeon]

don’t wake up bro

no new teasers yet

[calm pulsar]

I do have a thick black cable from kbdfans

[chilly mural]

led need to be black too

for it to be truly black it must absorb light

[calm pulsar]

the board will create a black hole and its ggs for the earth

[sacred elm]

time to sell benom

its 60he pro time

[untold wigeon]

bro,
i can’t cancel my gt80

;(

[sacred elm]

jk

[untold wigeon]

F LIFE

[chilly mural]

This is why you wait before you buy

[untold wigeon]

[sacred elm]

why

[calm pulsar]

im ready to accept there wont be tsangan layout, so I will hold on to it

[untold wigeon]

i bought 3 days ago man

i

[sacred elm]

You talk like 80he is gonna be shit and outdated once they release 60he pro or something lol

[chilly mural]

80he is still going to be goated

[untold wigeon]

noo, i prefer 60% because of the spare cases

i have

HAHAHHA

[calm pulsar]

you might use it for like multiple months most likely

before the new thing is out

[untold wigeon]

lowering the budget to spend on a keeb rn

[sacred elm]

its fine, you can have both, like me

🌹

[untold wigeon]

true

let’s see then :(

mama

my fingers hurt so much dude

geon raws are so hard to pull from my plate

[calm pulsar]

I've been there😭

[untold wigeon]

while owlab are so easyyy

[sacred elm]

☠️

[calm pulsar]

some of my poms just come off if I take off keycaps

[untold wigeon]

true

my kom’s r the same

[sacred elm]

poms come out like butter

[calm pulsar]

but not like raeds tho...

raeds better

[sacred elm]

honestly, fluxes are easy too on pc plate. a bit harder on fr4

[untold wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/wonderdaan-desultor-wgmis-pepe-nft-gif-25694089

[sacred elm]

nothing is harder than raws

[sacred elm]

rather use rocks than raeds...

[untold wigeon]

nah, lucifer are harder

[calm pulsar]

those who suggested raeds should be put into... nah

[untold wigeon]

because of the low quality on bottom housing

[sacred elm]

[untold wigeon]

God,
i hope it’s a 65he

so i don’t have to spend more money on the worst layout

[calm pulsar]

0.006534 extra ms of latency because of those keys... can't have that

[calm pulsar]

lmao true

[sacred elm]

you guys are haters

65he is insta cop for me

keep hatin

[calm pulsar]

64% would be a bit more acceptable but still not it for me

[ionic breach]

i honestly only like the normal stuff

like if the keyboard layout can be derived from taking a part of a 100% kb

[calm pulsar]

I got spoiled by tsangan😭

[glossy pagoda]

A little birdie teased the teasers to me so now I'm teasing the teasers that were teased maximize the teasing

[ionic breach]

so any exploded or 75%, 65% i dont really like

[untold wigeon]

(2)

[calm pulsar]

yesss

[sacred elm]

Mark stop edging us, tease something already, so I can go back to sleep

[calm pulsar]

also fair logic, but for me it's with an addition: if 60% is derived from 100% its fine, but you alter it a bit it becomes it's own nice layout

but that's a just personal feeling

[calm pulsar]

teasement readings show the value of over 9000

[thorn zealot]

Do u have a budget

[sacred elm]

😳

[calm pulsar]

... sue gateron

[sacred elm]

alright, full screenshot in my dm

[ionic breach]

Mods ban this mf for psychological warfare

[calm pulsar]

20:40 Erik Cacao FYI, we will screenshot this message and edge real good with it

[sacred elm]

🥀

[calm pulsar]

did you not sleep btw? its probably like 5 am in the us

[sacred elm]

No time for sleep

[calm pulsar]

2 weeks sleep deprivation for it to be a new case collab for 60he

[sacred elm]

imagine..

[glossy pagoda]

*new strap color

[untold wigeon]

imagine back to back case releases

[sacred elm]

imagine if its only strap and not even a case

custom wooting straps for sale

[quasi hinge]

If you guys do a wooting 80he pro, pls make it compatible with the old case 🙏

[sacred elm]

why

[calm pulsar]

strap sakura edition

[quasi hinge]

I put a lot of effort into my old case

Special to me

[sacred elm]

not the case, I mean whats the point of 80he pro

[quasi hinge]

I dunno, just asking

[calm pulsar]

16k hz

[quasi hinge]

Maybe they will edge us one day

[sacred elm]

wow(idc)

[glossy pagoda]

Air fryer edition

[quasi hinge]

I have peaked in my build

OG poms still better than sneks imo

Haters gna hate

I feel like sailing off into the sunset

[calm pulsar]

did you get 90 snakes btw

[sacred elm]

@quasi hinge btw ive been using obsidian skates for 2 days and they are so fast, i expected a bit more control lol, but maybe they need some break in period

[sweet oak]

200s the max I’m generally looking to spend personally

[thorn zealot]

Oh then yeah that atom 2 stack is hard to beat

Other options or fiio k7 and topping dx3 pro +

[quasi hinge]

Yup

[quasi hinge]

Noice

Still on the dots lol

[calm pulsar]

rip, what will you do with them?

[quasi hinge]

They are still amazing but I can tell the difference

Wanted to do a giveaway

[sweet oak]

Ill take a lookie at those later

[quasi hinge]

But id like to give them to a charitable cause, someone stuck on lekkers who need a way out lol

[sacred elm]

nah, they need to suffer!

[calm pulsar]

there's this guy on the server, who fills out his board with poms a little at a time

[quasi hinge]

Who is that hero

[calm pulsar]

ahem @trail bane ahem

[untold wigeon]

ready for the new 60he pro

[trail bane]

Szo?

[ionic breach]

he is just a good investor, dollar cost averaging

[quasi hinge]

But he has a bunch already?

[calm pulsar]

at this point maybe

[quasi hinge]

I just dollar cost gold and silver

[ionic breach]

oo nice which did ya get?

[untold wigeon]

normal black & brass weight

[calm pulsar]

imagine 60he pro having a db

[quasi hinge]

You collect POMs?

[untold wigeon]

nah, not possible when they’re releasing owlab x wooting

HAHAHHAHAHA

[untold wigeon]

i got it with a huge discount

so yeah

not bad

[thorn zealot]

Yeah any of those options will power almost anything

[untold wigeon]

65 for both brand new from kbdfans

[thorn zealot]

Besides the big boys that cost like over 1k

[calm pulsar]

well owlabs was announced a while ago, and this new teaser could be related to a whole new board that we will have to wait some time for

[untold wigeon]

true, but if wooting use db, then i will just stick with tsangan venom

[trail bane]

Yes

[quasi hinge]

How many you got

[untold wigeon]

pom’s r old coins for him

[calm pulsar]

could be the case for me in any outcome, but still curious to see what they are cooking up

[trail bane]

Technically 45

30 og

[quasi hinge]

Want 90 sneks

[trail bane]

Ofc

[quasi hinge]

What country you in

[trail bane]

Poland

[quasi hinge]

DM me if you want them, if you are under 18, check with your parents

I can mail em to you

[sweet oak]

Good thing im far away from moving myself to that price bracket

Just like how im far away from getting a sony lens

[thorn zealot]

I main iems so those amps are basically endgame for me

[sweet oak]

I wear hearing aids that pretty much fit like iems, so i could in theory easily go that route

But open back is comfy

[fallen pecan]

for the ft1 a simple moondrop dawn pro should be enough

[tropic urchin]

3-4 days

[calm pulsar]

yeah I can wear em for way longer and feel better when doing a lot of work or gaming

Nx snow switches are nice and marbly but that’s where the positives end

[untold wigeon]

ngl, holy 80 green & purple looks nice

as a hulk build

[little glen]

no

joker

ngl i would consider holy80

maybe i'm the only mf that thinks it kinda looks cool

but i already have gt80 so i dont think i will

before i do that i need to get a mx pcb for my salvation

maybe also get like a neo65cu

[cyan lark]

So did we get the 65HE reveal yet or they still playing this one close to the chest?

[little glen]

maybe in a couple hours

[fringe quarry]

pls no 65

[sacred elm]

spilled a bit of beer on my 80he, mark send new kb

[calm pulsar]

shoulda got gateron gt60

[fringe quarry]

real

[sacred elm]

i saved it tho, it was only on the plate so should be fine

lol

[sacred elm]

real

[fringe quarry]

perfect board for alcoholics

[cyan lark]

Keyboards get thirsty too

[little glen]

i assume the reveal will be around the same time of day as the teaser was

so probably in like 1.5h

[sacred elm]

we dont know if its gonna be a reveal, maybe teaser of something else

[little glen]

if they do reveal today

[sacred elm]

switches or something, who knows

[tropic urchin]

Get that bud light type shii outta here

[little glen]

might just be a new case

[fringe quarry]

will it get more views then gta trailer

[sacred elm]

😭

its actually first time

unlucky.

[glacial wind]

i like the top look, i hate the rest of it though since i don't want holes everywhere

[tropic urchin]

If you’re not drinking hard tequila at 8:27 am on a Thursday what are you even doing

[little glen]

yeah the top looks great

[sacred elm]

my bad

[little glen]

i would prefer a more solid bottom tbh

side with hole is probably fine imo

not for sound, just visually

[cyan lark]

I had one beer last night and I’m finding it hard to get going. What you’re suggesting is suicide.

[sacred elm]

[tropic urchin]

This is a no smoking crack section yes

[sacred elm]

[cyan lark]

Speaking of smoking crack y’all still enjoying that flux life? I’m still a bit envious

[sweet oak]

We need a version where it’s no 🥀

[tropic urchin]

Haven’t replaced mine, no issues 🌹

[sweet oak]

[tropic urchin]

Might be the only person that likes them around these parts tho

[sacred elm]

yes

just spilled beer on them tho

theyre cool

[cyan lark]

Add that to the marketing, drinks like a champ

[snow yarrow]

Pc/friction pad

[sacred elm]

I like them on pc plate

[cyan lark]

Gotta embrace the clack my friend 🙂

[snow yarrow]

Wait till they break in, large obsidian skates are straight glued to the mousepad in my experience

[sacred elm]

yeah, theyre very fast right now

But but youtubers told me i should go for that creamy thock 😭

[sacred elm]

[cyan lark]

Youtubers are sociopaths

Creamy is the one true sound profile

誘導軸を開発しているUnionwellから新構造の磁気スイッチが登場

ステムと磁石が分離されている？

X · May 8, 2025, 1:21 PM

[sweet oak]

They gotta stick to nothing

[tidal frigate]

Tactile switches

[tawdry tree]

I wish

[fallen pecan]

nah these magnets are decoupled from the stem so the wobble doesn't affect it

[sacred elm]

😳

[tawdry tree]

it’s inter

esting.

[sweet oak]

I’d eat it

[tawdry tree]

u think that works?

[glossy pagoda]

Y'all ready for this?

Aligner is spot on, I've got no idea when it's going live

[tawdry tree]

stop 😭

Always ready to edge

oop there goes my emoji rights

[sweet oak]

🥀

[crimson sky]

seems like a good way to get unwanted rattle

bruh why did discord but me at a random place again

[glacial wind]

isn't that just the same mechanism the drunkdeer switches have recently

so unionwell is the one behind it with that round stem wobble thing?

[crimson sky]

maybe

[fallen pecan]

deer didnt say

[crimson sky]

honestly hard to say unless they put their logo on there somewhere

[tropic urchin]

But do you know if it has a 7u spacebar

[glossy pagoda]

I am fully briefed on the product being teased

[tropic urchin]

I will have to consult the great Oracle on this information

[ionic breach]

👀 what did it say?

[tropic urchin]

@tidal frigate What do you make of this

[glossy pagoda]

I haven't seen Jakubix all day

[tropic urchin]

I hath summoned the oracle

Going to be interesting if I pick up a 60% board or not 🫦

[marsh saffron]

Best be wootpad

The people have been waiting mark

[glossy pagoda]

You and me both

[ionic breach]

if the product was a food

what would it be?

[tropic urchin]

Tofu unrelated to the case

[paper bloom]

edible keycaps

and a edible PCB

[glossy pagoda]

Stroopwaffels

[paper bloom]

YES

[crimson sky]

I don't think fire retardant and edible mix well

[half sparrow]

Is a needle lube good for the spacebar stabilizer

[crimson sky]

yea

[half sparrow]

Ok

[tropic urchin]

What flavor 😳

[paper bloom]

I thought i was retarded proof

OH WELL

[tropic urchin]

Dutch caramel and vanilla 🌹

[tawdry tree]

nah, the Raesha’s one is like KoMs, it’s not loose in there like it is with this unionwell switch.

[tawdry tree]

I’d think so as well

[tawdry tree]

Raesha is unionwell?

[snow yarrow]

TTC tee hee recolor has been sighted as well

[tall hollow]

The camo switches?

[snow yarrow]

Just noticed, the bottom right switch seems to be full pom?

[snow yarrow]

Was this posted already? Mb 😳

[tropic urchin]

Why can’t TTC have nice colors :/

[sacred elm]

[tropic urchin]

They look like a camouflaged wasp

Ugly and angry lookin

alright this is atleast a step in the right direction

Thank you Mr aligner for that eye bleach

too bad its on some keyboard only

https://mechkeys.com/products/ttc-camouflage-magnetic?rfsn=7127324.e74ca8&variant=46850463039711

[snow yarrow]

WE NEED THIS BIH TO BE FULL POM BLACK 🥀

[tawdry tree]

just buy the $400 keyboard and harvest the switches bro

problem?

[tropic urchin]

Save money and buy fluxies 🌹

[tall hollow]

What's better about V2 over V1?

[tall hollow]

Nah, TTC KoM POM

[tawdry tree]

It’s a joke, they aren’t actually Black Knight V2s but they have the exact same color scheme, even the gold flakes.

It’s just a snake recolor

[tropic urchin]

It was directed at mr aligner’s idea 🫦

[tall hollow]

Ah

[tall hollow]

💅

[tawdry tree]

Jade Pro recolor too

with the same color scheme

[tall hollow]

Mmmmmmmmmm, no

[prime orbit]

Isn’t flux the switches that are super budget

[tawdry tree]

yeahh

[prime orbit]

Ok rs tho

Are they even better

For that much

[sweet oak]

Bro what switches? Theres nothing

Scam

[tawdry tree]

better lube job

[tropic urchin]

For that much probably not, better off getting normal POMs for half the cost

[tawdry tree]

for $0.90 more

[tall hollow]

2 dollars per switch is quite steep lmao

[ionic breach]

didnt think ill see the day poms get recommended as the budget option

[prime orbit]

So my wooting POM are chilling

[tropic urchin]

Their stability is ≈, but I like the RGB + sound/feel more, but $2 is whack city

[cyan lark]

Fluxes are great for stimulating the economy in these tough times

[prime orbit]

Sheesh

[tropic urchin]

Yes

[tall hollow]

I wonder what kind of margins they are making here. Unless that price is after the tariff applied to it.

[tropic urchin]

Once they relist again, they’re gonna be 145% more expensive in the US

[tall hollow]

If it's before the tariff price, then that price wil balloon to like 5 dollars per switch

Here in the states

[tropic urchin]

They gave away a bunch of free samples so I’m assuming the ppl that wanted it got them, I never was notified of it 🥀

[snow yarrow]

I think the margins are quite high, but theyre probably trying to recoup some of that R&D expense, would be my guess atleast

[tropic urchin]

I YOLOed them before tariffs as my last switches since I’m not interested in nonboxstems anymore

[glossy pagoda]

Probably gave away more switches than they sold lol

[tropic urchin]

I’m their #1 fan and they made me pay full price 🥀

[tall hollow]

And maybe the tooling cost too?

[glossy pagoda]

Just means you're part of an even more exclusive club

[tall hollow]

Injection molds ain't cheap lol

[tropic urchin]

Frogson and marble pops kept that form to themselves 😭

[tropic urchin]

True

[tall hollow]

You gotta EDM those things with custom machined graphite blocks to create the negatives

[prime orbit]

Holy shit

[tropic urchin]

Alexotos and Mr arc said they’re pretty damn close to MX sound for a HE switch

[tall hollow]

2 dollar switches moment

[tawdry tree]

free keycap puller bro

[stray tiger]

You take that back!

[tropic urchin]

You never told me 😭

[prime orbit]

Wait true the key cap puller might be worth it

[tropic urchin]

🥀

The one time I wasn’t on 24/7 😦

sniffles

[stray tiger]

I was doing review samples with Alex not filling out forms

[cyan lark]

Lesson learned 😿

[snow yarrow]

Nice try, we already know it was an elaborate plan to make varedis and shf pay 200$ for switches bro 🥀

[sacred elm]

😴

[glacial wind]

Varedis used the code didn’t they

[tall hollow]

Real

[sweet oak]

Next shf will pay 1,500 for a sony lens, sno predicted this

[stray tiger]

As the Marines says "Never not be there always"

[trail bane]

At least free keycap puller

[sacred elm]

nope

[tall hollow]

Nah, they gotta get the G Master lens, 3000 dollars for those!

[glacial wind]

Ah a brother in arms

[prime orbit]

very truw

[snow yarrow]

Oh no, theres 2 of them now @sacred elm 😭

[sacred elm]

I love my 24-70mm f/2.4 GM II lens. Even though it was almost 3000 dollars lmaoooo

[sacred elm]

looks like temu keyboard

[trail bane]

Meh

[glacial wind]

We’re just keeping shafie from making the mistake of buying a non g master lens then spending the next year wishing he spent a bit more for the g master version

[tall hollow]

GM lenses are so worth it!

Like actually

[sweet oak]

Enough about casual lenses, we’re going straight to competitive

[tropic urchin]

I wish, I wasn’t fast enough

[glacial wind]

Hrm do I buy a geon event ticket or just roll up same time as hopper and do the foreigner entry

[tropic urchin]

I was too stubborn when the code was up

And when I decided I wanted to try it vanished like my dad going to get milk

[uneven cradle]

https://tenor.com/view/capybara-ok-he-pull-up-capybaras-car-meme-gif-25675731

[sweet oak]

Hopper take me with you to the event

I swear i wont eat anything there

[calm pulsar]

me too

i might eat a keycap or two

[tropic urchin]

I’m also a he, don’t misgender me @glacial wind 🥀

-500 social credit score

[trail bane]

Hmm

[glacial wind]

May you enjoy your wild magnetism and hopefully never need to remove the switches so the legs don’t fall off

[trail bane]

Hi guys, that’s me lander

[tropic urchin]

I only remove them from the plate so my Timmy legs remain 🌹

No issues with my batch to my knowledge so we sailin

[tropic urchin]

Replace the treads with Pom switches

[glacial wind]

I can’t help but notice there’s someone selling a brand new dual Sony battery charger for cheap within 1 station of the geon keyboard event

Truly god works in mysterious ways

[tropic urchin]

Very mysterious indeed

[snow yarrow]

No issues with mine either so far, set to 0.1 actuation and deadzone set to 0

If the magnets were bad, i wouldve noticed I guess?

[calm pulsar]

no chewing on the keycaps for me, just had a ceramic tooth fall out☠️

good thing it's on warranty

[tall hollow]

I don't think you should be chewing on plastics in general

No one needs more microplastics in their bloodstream

[glacial wind]

Maybe maybe not, it would depend on settings used, how far out of spec the magnets are, what sensors wooting used etc etc

It seems to have more issues with some venom keyboards from reports

[snow yarrow]

POV: @sacred elm waiting for new wooting teasers, but instead getting hit by more camera lens facts by @glacial wind

-ca 2025 (colorized)

[sacred elm]

F5 stopped working, need new keyboard Mark

[glacial wind]

Remember that time mark told us all a time and then the website failed to launch it

Good times

I forgot what item that was for

Benom bad confirmed

benom

[tropic urchin]

Real shame fluxies leggera so far is the best sounding pairing 🥀

[untold wigeon]

wait is this allowed?

or should i delete this?

[tall hollow]

Please no more frakenswitches

[glacial wind]

probably not due to self promo rules, but if you buy a Sony gm ii lens then we may allow it

[tropic urchin]

It’s not tho

No part of it is a frankenswitch

[untold wigeon]

bro, even i’m taking pic on my phone :(

still saving up

[snow yarrow]

We post wooting teasers in this channel sir, delete this post at once please (jk)

[untold wigeon]

for some high end cam

[untold wigeon]

sad sir

i was expecting the tee heee fam to back me up

[mental salmon]

Did the new product already dropped? Or are we still in high expectation mode 😄

[untold wigeon]

but i was left alone

[snow yarrow]

Wait you really deleted it, i was just kidding 😭

[untold wigeon]

high expectations

[calm pulsar]

[glacial wind]

Don’t worry, if you subscribe to my notifications you can find great deals on Sony lenses like shafie. I linked him a Sony 24-70 gm ii lens for $1200 usd. All he needed to do was buy a ticket to Australia to pick it up

[untold wigeon]

wasn’t confident on the pic ngl

bad editing, my eyes are not clear rn

but some follows would be appreciated on my x account with the same username as my discord

bro, we have to wait for this 60he pro

i’ve prepared my case

i’ve prepared the switches

[untold wigeon]

what happened

[glacial wind]

I’m pretty sure the creators of the switch didn’t invest in the right Sony lenses and this was divine punishment on their magnet qc

[untold wigeon]

ahh i see

[glacial wind]

Understandable really

[untold wigeon]

maybe we need to change the pom maxxing to sony maxxing

[glacial wind]

Indeed

sorry for advertising myself,
but quitting valorant t2 is the best decision i’ve ever made

i will be at computex 2030 when i’m famous enough to be invited by wooting

love you all fam

wooting numba 1

@glacial wind i might buy a sony cam

i will ask u some questions in the future because u are a cam master

[glacial wind]

Oh wooting took back market share in valorant comp scene it seems

[untold wigeon]

i think since 60he came out

no?

[glacial wind]

47% of all pros in valorant using a wooting

[untold wigeon]

that’s insane

[glacial wind]

It went down a little bit last year with razer sponsoring a ton of teams

[untold wigeon]

where is benom

nooo benommm

[glacial wind]

But seems it’s gone back up again now with 80he launch

[untold wigeon]

and upcoming 60he pro

[errant escarp]

hey i have the wooting 60 he which i got in feb 2023 and was playing around with white but it reminded me that it's not pure white and was wondering if the 80he has the same problem?

[untold wigeon]

white rgb?

[glacial wind]

White is often like for a lot of led

80he definitely has similar things going on with its white depending on brightness

[untold wigeon]

i’m pretty sure it’s normal

right?

[marsh saffron]

Yes it likely will

[glacial wind]

yeah it’s normal

[errant escarp]

i was trying to have a plain white light on all of my keyboard

[untold wigeon]

bcs most board white light will be something blue-ish

[stray tiger]

Most of the time white is very bright blue. Just the nature of the beast when trying to do multicolor on a single LED

[marsh saffron]

I will say white looks more white with my ti hes, probably because of the light diffuser

[glacial wind]

You can kind of play around to try find the closest to pure white but yeah, almost never going to match a real pure white

[errant escarp]

that's what i figured, so the 80he is probably like this as well then?

[glacial wind]

It’s definitely like that with some pinkish in the 80he

[errant escarp]

it has a pinkish hue on the 60he as well

[marsh saffron]

Also shine through keycaps (at least all I've used) add to the blueish/pinkish tone

[glossy pagoda]

Request denied, user error

[tropic urchin]

@sacred elm just buy back your 60HE

With jades 🌹

[sacred elm]

its gone

[marsh saffron]

With my ti hes and pbtfans xray i can get a decent actual white rgb

But it's still ever so slightly blueish

[errant escarp]

yeah the stock keycaps somehow makes the loght even more pink lol

[tropic urchin]

When there’s money there’s always a way unless they live in Dubai

[marsh saffron]

Its because the shine through part tints it a tad

[glacial wind]

@sacred elm dont worry though, if you buy the 300c amaran creator light and softbox combo you’ll have excellent pure white light https://a.co/d/gRbODum

[errant escarp]

can they fix that by putting an led light next to the rgb ones or no?

[calm pulsar]

it says rgb in the name

[glacial wind]

That’s why it’s great, it does full colors not just white. Some days shafie might want a nice pink sunset hue

[tawdry tree]

it is loose in there on the Raesha’s as well @glacial wind you’re right

Even has the little thingy on the top

[glacial wind]

Yeah it looks exactly the same with that weird round thing

[calm pulsar]

looks detached from the stem lol

on 2nd pic

[tawdry tree]

both are

One has the nipple on the stem itself and the other on the magnet holder

so the stem can pivot/wobble

maybe

odd af, doubt it’ll work well

[calm pulsar]

i can only say

mx better

[stray tiger]

It's always the nipple stem

[tropic urchin]

Induction clears
