When I first got them sometimes the switch would feel super stiff too

[ripe nova]

Ig a pretty affordable option, I myself bought some phylina lightnings, although I bought them with a welcome discount, and as such they turned out rlly cheap, just waiting for my keeb to be delivered

[rare kraken]

Oh Alr

[cloud pivot]

do yours feel sluggish at the beginning? cuz mines do

100% same even with the lightbar

that's funny ngl

even the same standoff holes

[cloud pivot]

an inferior Classic-TKL smh

[trail bane]

Good ig

For those who wants non he holy80

[untold wigeon]

true

[tidal frigate]

Who is manufacturer

[untold wigeon]

in the item desc, i think personal made

the seller soldered it by them self

at least qmk / via capability tho

the main problem is they're using "wooting" brand name

[tidal frigate]

Wooting cant sue tho

[untold wigeon]

true, but it would be appreciated if they make their own name + 80mx

unholly 80

[marble sierra]

FakeItUntilYouMakeIt 80mx

[untold wigeon]

good idea

[tidal frigate]

So it is one of one right?

[untold wigeon]

u can purchase it

on the link

200 yuan

[tidal frigate]

Quite cheap

[untold wigeon]

$30

not bsd

bad*

[tidal frigate]

Wonder if it will sound like hall effect

[marble sierra]

Then buy this and you got yourself a Fake Wooting 🤣

[blazing bramble]

How people say the devil is in the details Thats why we all love WOoting

jerrzi "ru yi" switch

top bottom pom, modified LY stem

[glacial wind]

that design looks familiar

is that same as that other circle stem one that came out recently

[fallen pecan]

no clue, the post only mentioned something something soft plastic, quieter bottom out

looks like keychron is starting to use ks20 these days

bootleg naruto caps, 95 yuan

[snow yarrow]

Guys, you can currently get the owlab case on ali for 809 bucks with coupons and sale going on, 🔥 deal, dont miss out

Also, 1% off if you buy 2

[tropic urchin]

the tariff alone would be its own original owlabs case

🤣

[trail bane]

Guy from kbdfans last time sayid, they’re planning to release their own 8k mx pcb, specially for holy/gt80

[trail bane]

Should i ask them for trade mine 80he for their 60he?
Fair trade

[chilly mural]

smh, not even 128khz scanrate

in anycase, I hope they do KS-20 100%

[trail bane]

Making non ks-20 switches in big 2025💀

[snow yarrow]

Nah, they will prob hit you with the "where is the rest of the material in your case" (he has holy80 case iirc)

[trail bane]

Ma snakes eating my case

[sand summit]

ks-37b is pretty nice tbf

if u tried k2 he before

[snow yarrow]

Knock them out like van damme bro wtf

[trail bane]

Tmr?

[sand summit]

na its the switch type keychron was using for he

[trail bane]

Oke i’ll try

[trail bane]

Oh

[glacial wind]

the ks37 switches weren't too bad initially. They were like lekker v2 era stuff

doesn't hold up to todays stuff but they weren't too bad for a stock cheapie

[sand summit]

still cant forget about the feel of this board and its switches when i tried em

😭

[chilly mural]

Mmm, he's aware about Chinese Board faking test. In any case, Bold TKL HE seems nice but $229.

[glacial wind]

oh he made a sale video, those videos print money

[trail bane]

If only they were compatible with TMR, then it would still be fine. I hate optical switches precisely because companies like Logitech introduced their own proprietary standard and offer no way to customize them

[glacial wind]

had a youtuber friend show me his stats from one of those and they just print money for affiliate commissions when you do the 'these are the best deals for this sale' video

[sand summit]

ks-20 is compatible with tmr, not sure bout ks-37b

[chilly mural]

lmao, very nice then

he does give out nice discount to the board that he showed

[glacial wind]

yeah ali seasonal sales are hoenstly best time to buy stuff

i buy all my extra camera gear bits during those sales, you get an extra 5-10% vs buying normal times

[cloud pivot]

will it be tofix making them like they did for tiger lite gaming?

[trail bane]

Idk, you should ask kbdfans for more info

Get back to mx board, so uncomfortable

After like already half year using only 80he

[calm pulsar]

you just need a 3.0mm travel, 1.0mm actuation MX switch

[tropic urchin]

Erm

[wispy vine]

Uncomfortable how? I havent built a mx board before so I'm curious your thoughts.

[trail bane]

To slow in every aspect

[wispy vine]

Ah ok thanks

[trail bane]

If I don’t sell my Corsair, I might just desolder the Speed Silvers from it.

[tropic urchin]

If only we could get Mx sound and 0.5mm actuation, MX would be usable

[thorn zealot]

Erm just own both mx and he 🤓 ☝️

[tropic urchin]

I do

[thorn zealot]

[tropic urchin]

[thorn zealot]

No it’s rage bait

[tropic urchin]

This is what I picture

[thorn zealot]

Why would I ever get triggered

[tropic urchin]

That’s what someone who got triggered would say to save face

whats the nicest keycap packaging u guys have ever received

for me its pbtfans by quite a margin

[tropic urchin]

True

[marsh cove]

hi should i mod my Wooting 60HE (tofu redux case, gateron jade pro switches, blank keycaps) or buy a Wooting 80HE?

please helppp i cant decide

[tropic urchin]

If you wanna keep 60% the 60HEv2 releases EoY

[stray tiger]

It's obvious Arc is using MX, his B key is jacked up and he can't fix it

@thorn zealot did you get anything from the Omnitype sale?

[thorn zealot]

Nah ima stick to mars cadet

[stray tiger]

You have much more self control than I do. Congrats!

[trail bane]

Hell nah only 37.12 on monkeytype

[thorn zealot]

I mean I could’ve gone with dualshot

[trail bane]

On 80he i have 80+ at least

[thorn zealot]

But i think mars cadet would look better on raw alu

[stray tiger]

I ended up spending too much, including a second set of dual shot lol. I already had katana base and grabbed standard

[cloud pivot]

keycaps peaked with gmk wob and again with kkb wob

other options are redundant!!!

Are the akko astrolink worth upgrading to from Owlib Ti?

[stray pawn]

Sorry to reply to something so old, but I was looking into anodizing my own optimum case, coincidentally also black. Any chance you could link me to the video you saw someone do this in? Even just to see how the finished product looks.

[stray tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/hmmm-baby-suspicious-side-eye-funny-gif-6639201701448518735

[marsh cove]

i have no worries keeping it, is the 80he alot different than the 60he in terms of responsiveness and overall performance?

if so then i should just buy an 80he instead of modding my 60he

[tropic urchin]

havent tried the 60HE, but I have the 80HE. Its more of a layout difference/preference

60HEv2 will have the 8k polling that came with 80HE

Id also go owlab ti he instead of jades

[ripe nova]

Keycaps in a bag 🤩

[marsh cove]

got you im gonna order my mods right now then

[tropic urchin]

if you like the 60% layout alot id wait for the V2, but def cop the owlabs

[marsh cove]

im getting Tofu redux case (alodized silver) with grey blank keycaps. itd gonna match my setup since my mouse is grey and my mousepad is white

[ripe nova]

You could also look into ur ultras since they're rlly similar to the owlabs, just are sounding bit different

[tropic urchin]

anodized silver is tech

[marsh cove]

yeah. i like it im all about the performance

waiting for v2 takes a while though no?

[tropic urchin]

end of year so in a few months

[marsh cove]

end of year and its inly june

[tropic urchin]

mid June but it'll go faster than you'd expect

you already got a HE board so it wont be as bad as if you had a kinda mid keyboard you had to suffer thru til it dropped

I remember those times ;_;

[thorn zealot]

Wait do u have a ulx or wlmouse

[tropic urchin]

I have Beastx pro purple and Ulx clix

[thorn zealot]

Cuz ever since I started playin fps games again I kinda want to try the beast mini/ulx mini

[tawdry tree]

No. It’s not an upgrade. A sidegrade at best. 😂

[tropic urchin]

Beastx feels nice for cloth but it sucks on glass bc of uneven base

It has a more rigid/better build, but the Ulx for me has felt even lighter and has better glide despite being similar weight

[thorn zealot]

Where u get ur ulx

[tropic urchin]

There’s a new Ulx drop happening during July I think

eBay

If you buy WLmouse you’ll prob get a tariff unless you buy it off someone else

[thorn zealot]

I would like to keep my streak of not paying tariffs

[marsh cove]

can you send link?

[marsh cove]

send me the link if you can

[marsh cove]

yeaaah i guess

im just gonna buy the mods

i can just transfer the mods on the v2 whenever right

itll be my first time modding a keyboard so idk anything

but so far people have told me the gateron jade pros are good

[marsh cove]

what are the mods on your keyboard? looks nice

[thorn zealot]

I think owlab ti he are better than those https://milktooth.com/products/ti-he-heavy?srsltid=AfmBOoowkgedpz_S0P2JF_YWGEBoUBinjpDZVxsBpBulW6b47Ss7ajaJ

[tropic urchin]

They’re just old (came out 9 months ago and owlabs are more recent and improved for less $)

[tropic urchin]

Venom60HE with silver leggera (gummy oring mount), owlab ti he switches and PBTfans ronin

[tropic urchin]

Here’s 80HE side by side

[marsh cove]

thanks i will order these

[ripe nova]

Well, Idk which site other than aliexpress is trusted, I personally bought phylina lightnings cuz they are the same + have a dust proof stem, I just ordered ones with the most sales + choice shipping

[marsh cove]

okay got you

[marsh cove]

looking nice

whats the leggera ?

[thorn zealot]

Kb case

[marsh cove]

ohh got u

im just gona buy the owlabs

do you guys think itll be a good match? these are the case and keycaps im going to buy for my 60he

and theres my mouse + glasspad

as you can see theres a white bottom, gray top look im going for

[thorn zealot]

Yes

[marsh cove]

yes i think so too thanks

im going to order them right now

[thorn zealot]

Imo for the redux case u should add on the brass weight

Makes it sound much nicer

[marsh cove]

ohh i didnt know it affects the sound

do you also have redux with brass weirghr?

[marsh saffron]

Beastx 💪 💪

[marsh saffron]

I do

[marsh cove]

Very fire mouse 🔥

[marsh cove]

what are the different with and without it?

[marsh saffron]

Makes the case sound more solid

Also more weight so brain likes that

[cyan lark]

More heavy, more good

[fluid ravine]

Less case resonanceeee

Also means less case pingg

More controlled hollowness and case sound

Yip Yap Yop

[thick hound]

Yo i could use some help with one thing. I was thinking of getting GEON Raw HE Switches but I really dont know much about those. I got a keyboard with basic lekker45's. Is there a major difference between those two?

[fluid ravine]

Someone's gonna come up in here and say get Owlab Ti HE instead watch

[thick hound]

😭

[thorn zealot]

used to before i gave my wooting to my friend

[thorn zealot]

owlab ti he

[thorn zealot]

but actually the difference is that raw is more stable and the travel distance is shorter

and the raw sounds brighter

[thick hound]

oh shit really? That sounds neat

[thorn zealot]

yeah and owlab ti he does everythin the raw does but better

[thick hound]

what do you mean better

[thorn zealot]

owlab ti he are more stable than raws, which results in a cleaner sound imo

and owlab ti he doesnt have the sticking issue the raws had

[ripe nova]

nothing can beat phylina lightnings at ~3 cents a switch 🤑

[marsh cove]

got you im buying added weight.

So owlab ti switches, tofu redux with weight

sounds good guys or what

[thick hound]

Damn thats something im happy to find out. I dont wanna spend shit ton of money onto some keyboard thats gonna have some whacky issues that shouldn't be there in a first place

[ripe nova]

definetly ordering it again

[thick hound]

I appreciate this alot thank you @thorn zealot

[thorn zealot]

not if ur in the us and have to pay tariffs 🥀

[thorn zealot]

👍

[ripe nova]

when will antarctica make tariffs on china 🇦🇶🇦🇶

[marsh cove]

why is shipping $30

💔

on kbdfans

[ripe nova]

which country r u in?

[thick hound]

Which ones do you prefer better. 50g's or 40g

[thorn zealot]

out of the 2 options they offer 50g but i swapped to 62g

i like 60-70g

[thick hound]

yea thats fair

[marsh cove]

United States

[ripe nova]

aw man, these tariffs must have hit u hard

[marsh saffron]

That's what I've got and it sounds great imo

[thorn zealot]

kbdfans ships from their us warehouses to avoid tariffs, u just have to pay a lil more for shipping thankfully

[ripe nova]

The keycaps I bought include a shoe like caps lock, but it doesn't fit in my keeb (I don't think it fits into any keeb with that stem hole 😭

Imma make a photo and show u rq

[marsh cove]

just the shipping because theyre shipping it from China

[marsh cove]

got youu im sold

how many should i get?

for it to be enough with my wooting 60he

[thorn zealot]

70 to be safe

[marsh cove]

got it thanks

[ripe nova]

Like look at this 😭 (shoe like caps lock on the left)

[thorn zealot]

yeah the left one are stepped caps and they only work for pcbs that have stepped caps compatibility

[ripe nova]

oh, so they do work on some keebs? Thought it was a defect

[thorn zealot]

yeah most custom mx boards have stepped caps compatibility on their pcbs

[ripe nova]

u mean discontinued?

[thorn zealot]

discontinued?

[ripe nova]

ye i'm just trying to understand the "stepped" definition

[thorn zealot]

thats just what the type of keycap is called

the look of it

[ripe nova]

ohhh i thought that was a verb

but that's an adjective

[marsh cove]

Owlab ti he light or heavy switches??

[thorn zealot]

yeah hopefully they didnt step on my keycaps

[ripe nova]

they're pretty light i'm pretty sure

[thorn zealot]

how heavy/light do u like ur switches

[marsh cove]

i dont care to be honest

which is best?

[ripe nova]

How can i check if a keeb has support for it (if my board is kinda unpopular)

[thorn zealot]

no best, just get 50g to be safe

[ripe nova]

ig get the closest one to the one u used

[marsh cove]

i have the stock wooting60he switches lol

[marsh cove]

got you so its just a weight difference

[tropic urchin]

Personal preference, worst case you can spring swap them with lighter springs (lekker 45g, geon pingless 42.5g)

[ripe nova]

ig that's the 60g one, so the 50g one would be closest

[tropic urchin]

Get the 50g ones and see how you like them, then you can get a switch opener and lighter springs if the day comes that you wanna try or swap em out

[thorn zealot]

By looking at the caps lock spot on the pcb

[marsh cove]

okay ill get the 50g

50g is the heavy option

10g lighter thany current switches

[thorn zealot]

the hole on the right is for normal caps lock keycaps

while the one on the left is for stepped caps

[ripe nova]

well, now i gotta find footage of the keeb that i ordered and should come any day now and try to find some footages of it without the switch on it's caps lock if i wanna find out sooner if the board is stepped cap compatible

[thorn zealot]

what board

[ripe nova]

ajazz ak820 max he

[thorn zealot]

i would bet my life that it doesnt have stepped caps compat

[ripe nova]

don't know until you try it 😉. Well, I got this board hugely discounted for less than 20 euros and like i thought i could spend that to try out a new keeb (my current one sucks)

[thorn zealot]

yeah its just most boards that cheap, esp he kbs, doesnt support stepped caps

[ripe nova]

well, it's ali retail price is like ~45 euros, but ye, that's cheap

[thorn zealot]

yeah stepped caps is usually in custom mx boards like over $100

ive never seen any prebuilt kb have stepped caps

[ripe nova]

ibm model m 😋

[ripe nova]

ig that's fine, I don't rlly care bout it, especially with the price i got my keycaps at

[marsh cove]

how many grams does your guys owlab ti switches have?

40g or 50

[ripe nova]

well, I'm just waiting for my he keeb to come, but I got switches rlly similar to the owlabs, they are at 35g +- 5g

[marsh saffron]

I went with 50g

[solemn crescent]

just wondering can you use any stabs with the 80he

[stray tiger]

Screw-in or clip-in

[solemn crescent]

thx

[thorn zealot]

yeah i personally dont use it cuz i use hhkb

[ripe nova]

when did u buy it?

[thorn zealot]

my kb? last month

its not the actuall hhkb, its just a kb that has the layout

[ripe nova]

ohhh, ig in that case it has modern improvements, like gasket mount, different foams, good switches, right?

[thorn zealot]

i mean the actual hhkb isnt bad

[ripe nova]

but like, ur keeb has, right?

[thorn zealot]

yeah it has its own version of a gasket mount, and i picked my own switches

i dont use any foams

[ripe nova]

u prefer keeb to be clacky?

[thorn zealot]

yeah

"thocky" stinky imo

[ripe nova]

ye, it's all to your own preference, i personally hate clacky keebs

[thorn zealot]

thats what makes this hobby nice

[marsh saffron]

Quiet clack 🔥 🔥 🔥

[thorn zealot]

not everyone copies the exact same build

[tropic urchin]

Your build sucks bc it isn’t mine

🔥

[marsh saffron]

No xray no talk

[tropic urchin]

Good thing I’m mute

[thorn zealot]

🥀 🥀 🥀

[ripe nova]

blud says that without toast modding it

[thorn zealot]

dont talk to me until u use a elitest kb layout like hhkb

LeBum

[tropic urchin]

Don’t talk to me until you have atleast a 2019 cpu

[marsh cove]

where can i buy those keycap decorations you put on the escape key

[marsh saffron]

Etsy

[thorn zealot]

😭

[marsh saffron]

No x3d = invalid opinion

[trail bane]

I have cpu from big 2012

[tropic urchin]

Big cpu bound

[calm pulsar]

intel bentium

[chilly mural]

60hz is a preference

[thorn zealot]

um sure

[calm pulsar]

b3d too good

[tropic urchin]

Baseline but preference too sure

[vocal idol]

Do you have a link?

[polar girder]

I doubt anyone that’s gaming on 60hz is by choice

[cyan lark]

60hz is more cinematic

[trail bane]

60hz iPhone 11 > 8000 hz wooting knob

[calm pulsar]

I'd take any upgrade to HE/TMR over the knob tbh

[glacial wind]

Hrm 25% off for jade air switches on ali, I might grab a few just to test

[calm pulsar]

jade maxes with pom stems... I wonder if it's going to be smoother now but still the same sound signature

[glacial wind]

oh still same sound? Meh

[tidal frigate]

Wooting already makes their own sensors

[calm pulsar]

according to the page they should be the same materials with the stem being pom, and it's the same dual rail design

not the same dual rail as their other switches, cause maxes had their own lower profile dual rail design

[chilly mural]

Really? I thought they just use off the shelve sensor because it's cheaper

[glacial wind]

The gateron stuff is so unfun to buy even to test

That new moonlight one is just recolored jade pro with the tighter top housing and jade air is just modified jade max

[marsh saffron]

I thought they did as well, never heard of them making their own

[glacial wind]

Guess have to wait for that new mold switch to maybe see anything different

[tidal frigate]

Look i have everything stored in most secured file storage

[calm pulsar]

wouldnt be surprised if the "new mold" is jade pro with tighter top housing, just as you mentioned

well ig any improvements are good, but I'd love some new material combinations

[glacial wind]

And it’s all so much more expensive too so even buying it to test feels dumb

[uneven cradle]

Tikken

[glacial wind]

With stuff like ur ice I don’t feel bad buying to play around with because it’s so cheap

[calm pulsar]

yeah im looking forward

to Bikkens

[glacial wind]

But gateron stuff is so much pricier for no better

I do need to get me a tikken switch

[uneven cradle]

Same

Matcha 🍵

[chilly mural]

I'll imagine it's just a recolored HE sensor to be of Wooting shade of black

[glacial wind]

I see lots of mt tai switches on Ali now, but China has the gt version which makes normal version pointless

[tidal frigate]

@chilly mural whats important my storage cannot be read

[calm pulsar]

that's why you have to come up with leaks and "truth" about wooting on the fly

[glacial wind]

Pretty nice early buyers deal on ur ice ultra blue switches from kprepublic right now

$25 for 70 before discounts

[tidal frigate]

Actually truth about sensors can be found on livestream

[calm pulsar]

on aliexpress it's ~26 bucks for me for 70 pcs, very cool
not sure about these switches at all though

how do they compare to Ti HE?

[chilly mural]

link pls'

[tropic urchin]

Bink

[calm pulsar]

imagine asking sno while he has his own website smh my head

[glacial wind]

They’re basically slightly deeper sounding ti he

[calm pulsar]

oh they're not on wootingmods yet it seems

[calm pulsar]

so like the same molds?

or just similar on tolerances

[glacial wind]

Yeah I’m not 100% sure if exact same but their tolerance is similar

[calm pulsar]

25 for 70 is a good price if that's the case

might try em out

someone happened to buy my duhuks, just in time for this lol

[glacial wind]

Oh I forgot to add the blue version to the site lol

These are just the blue version instead of pink

[calm pulsar]

ah so the pink are there, I was just searching for "ice ultra"

[tropic urchin]

Bowlabs -_-

[glacial wind]

The weird part of the blue is they changed the springs to 15mm

From 17mm

[calm pulsar]

ah maybe I can just enjoy mx for longer while waiting for tikkens

interested with getting adam 80 as my mx board

more or less because I want to try out Cherry mx switches

I never tried those in my life

[tidal frigate]

I have ordered nearly 4000 g of my favorite chips

Propably it will be enough for two months

[calm pulsar]

what are those

[glacial wind]

You ordered 4000g of old Dutch jalapeño and cheddar chips?

A good pick honestly

[tidal frigate]

Those. https://lorenz-snacks.com/pomsticks

Like 50x packs

[calm pulsar]

ah we have those here too
they're all right but I'd prefer if they were in bigger pieces

[tidal frigate]

Paprika

[tidal frigate]

It is only way i can enjoy old lays sticks

[glacial wind]

You can get them mega piece in Korea

[chilly mural]

what should I order in subway today

[glacial wind]

they do both that size and chunky size in Korea

[calm pulsar]

the same brand?

[tidal frigate]

50 x 75g soo

[glacial wind]

Nah 2 different brands

[tidal frigate]

What ingridients are in subway

Because i never ate subway sandwich

[glacial wind]

I think it’s originally a Japanese brand

[tidal frigate]

I think it is based on pomsticks

[chilly mural]

has no pork, chicken slice, beed slice, tuna, fish, egg mayo. tomato, anchoves, cucumber, onion, corn, and mac+cheese.

[tidal frigate]

I'am talking what options to choose..

Bread veggies cheese meat sauces?

[chilly mural]

yeh

[calm pulsar]

okay added to my shopping list for Japan
I think I might end up like these people from reels, where they have to buy new bags just to fit everything they bought there

[glacial wind]

Add mannan life konyaku jelly

Comes in a few flavors but they’re jelly cups made from konjac jelly that’s thicker and chewier

[tidal frigate]

@chilly mural gimme sec i found ingridients list for Poland propably it is the same

[glacial wind]

I guarantee any female in your life will love those jellies

[calm pulsar]

okay added, I think my gf might already know those

[tidal frigate]

@chilly mural what country subway should I look up

[glacial wind]

Yeah she might, they went viral years ago and are on a lot of folks Japan shopping list for sweets

[chilly mural]

Malaysia, Singapore is close too

[glacial wind]

I bring back an entire bag of those every time I go to Japan or Singapore

They got banned in Korea because they’re not suitable for super young kids due to being too chewy

[tidal frigate]

Well i will try something

[calm pulsar]

is all food like that banned in korea? I imagine there are a lot of similar snacks that you just know not to give to small kids

damn my typos are always in the most important words

[glacial wind]

Just those I think because there’s now other Konjac jelly products in Korea but poor mannan life ate the og ban and never got accepted again

[calm pulsar]

I already picture myself going to don qijote to get some of those healing items from yakuza series

[glacial wind]

The liver pill things surprisingly work too although it’s not a full no hangover solution

Just helps body process alcohol better

[calm pulsar]

ah so that's what they are, I thought they are mostly energy drinks

[tidal frigate]

Italian bread toasted, Barbecue chicken, salami, feta cheese, peppers, jalapeno, lettuce onions, hot chilli, garlic sauce.@chilly mural

It will work

[glacial wind]

Yeah it’s basically protection from a night out lol

You drink one before and one after and it increases your normal hangover limit by a couple drinks

[chilly mural]

thank you

[tidal frigate]

But make it double feta

And make it melt

@chilly mural and tell me if it works

[calm pulsar]

I'll keep that in mind, but I rarely drink, so I might just keep a couple around in case I have to fight yakuza gangsters

[chilly mural]

actually im not sure if that's cheese is there

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/kiryu-mine-qte-final-boss-final-battle-gif-6276884957351862805

[tidal frigate]

Tell me what cheese is therr

[chilly mural]

shredded and sliced cheese

mac and cheese is also there sometimes

[tidal frigate]

But what types

It is fucking important

[chilly mural]

IDFK

sory

[tidal frigate]

Pull up ingridients subway pdf in your country and tell me

[chilly mural]

shredded mozza and sliced cheddar

[tropic urchin]

It’s starting to smell like #cooking in here 🤓👆

[calm pulsar]

@chilly mural would you hurry up I want to order a samwich too

[tidal frigate]

It is 2nd general

[ionic breach]

me eating a subway sub and opening discord to see a convo abt subway

[tidal frigate]

Get cheddar but double on hot sauce

[calm pulsar]

what you got in your sub

[ionic breach]

random stuff, i didnt buy it

[chilly mural]

okay

[ionic breach]

teriyaki chicken i think

[tidal frigate]

@ionic breach i have mastered art of mixing pizza ingridients

I can mix all types of flavours

[chilly mural]

mmm, gonna be more expensive than what I usually spend but ehh

it's fine

[tidal frigate]

And it will be your best pizza you ever ate

[tidal frigate]

Just get half

[ionic breach]

[glacial wind]

Drakon doesn’t eat pizza though

[chilly mural]

noh, I don't mean I'll do the footlong of the bread, im not american

[glacial wind]

Disgraceful eating subway for breakfast when you could be eating a kaya toast set with soft boiled egg like a true Singaporean

you better start heading to toast box now

[ionic breach]

i didnt buy it so its free

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind do you have real pizza places in Seul

[ionic breach]

i cant say no to free food

[glacial wind]

Yeah there’s some decent places

[tidal frigate]

What do you mean by decent

[chilly mural]

man, I feel hungry, and it'll be 3 hours before I eat

[glacial wind]

Like places that do proper New York style pizza

[tidal frigate]

Talking about italian pizza

Like neopolitan and classica

[glacial wind]

I don’t think you’ll find full Italian style pizza outside of Europe that much

There might be maybe 1 place in an entire large city that does that from what I’ve seen

[tidal frigate]

New york style is based on classica but it is wrong take tbh

[tidal frigate]

So you dont live in seul?

[glacial wind]

I do but I don’t really look for full Italian style pizza

[tidal frigate]

Oh

[glacial wind]

it’s not very popular outside of Europe

[tidal frigate]

Propably ingridients italian are extremly expensive in korea

[glacial wind]

a lot of food you eat probably isnt much of a thing in Asia

well it is but Italian is actually incredibly popular in Korea as the 1st date option

[tidal frigate]

How much for small triangle of real Parmegiano?

[glacial wind]

But people don’t really know or seek out Italian style minimal cheese type pizza

Like living in Australia there was maybe one Italian style pizza joint in the city I lived in at one specific coastal spot 1 hour away

Italian style pizza just isn’t that known outside of Europe

[tidal frigate]

That's bummer

Poland is mostly modified classica land

But it is very close to classica

[glacial wind]

Outside of Europe it’s almost all either New York or Detroit pizza for the popular fancy pizza joints

[tidal frigate]

Thats horrible

That you cant eat real pizza in asia

[glacial wind]

You just got to expand your pallet a bit. I like all the types of pizzas

[tidal frigate]

Unless you are extremly rich

And can afford importing ingridients

[glacial wind]

Its not really about importing ingredients more so its just not popular

[tidal frigate]

So Americans are to blame

[glacial wind]

Once you travel a bit you’ll realize a lot of dishes that are popular in one region are basically non existent in others

[ionic breach]

tbf in big cities u can

[glacial wind]

Like some Americans I’ve met who grew up in smaller towns barely know what Indian food tastes like

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/fact-check-poland-polish-patriots-polish-fact-check-gif-11290677148453805758

[ionic breach]

its just too ex for bread

[chilly mural]

ah yes, a place where I need to book an airplane just to go

[glacial wind]

Big cities is cheat code though, it’s mostly folks who don’t live in big cities

[tidal frigate]

Good to know russian

[chilly mural]

Some even need to board an airplane just to go there to yeh

[glacial wind]

Folks tend to stick to the food they grew up with too if they don’t travel much

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind well technicly i could go for lunch to italy by cheap plane and eat pizza there

[glacial wind]

Like some college friends I have run away from most Asian foods because they’re not used to it

[tidal frigate]

But why when i can already order it near me

[ionic breach]

fr bread as a meal is just not popular here

[tidal frigate]

You have sweet bread

It is not real bread

[glacial wind]

Singapore has proper breads

It’s Korea and Japan you’re thinking about

[tidal frigate]

They do?

[ionic breach]

suprisingly so

[glacial wind]

Singapore has basically everything

[tidal frigate]

I thought all asian countries are like that

[glacial wind]

It’s a food capital of the world

[ionic breach]

we have both normal bread and those supermarket bread

[glacial wind]

Singapore is unique in that it has basically every good food you could want

[tidal frigate]

Well i'am addicted to those chips

[calm pulsar]

my uni friends (girls) on the contrary travel to Korea constantly

[tidal frigate]

Thats why i ordered 50 this time

[tidal frigate]

They want korean boyfriend

[ionic breach]

tbf korea is just so nice

i really would retire there

[tidal frigate]

I don't think so you should

Because their population goes very quickly down

[ionic breach]

sounds like cheap housing to me

[glacial wind]

That’s not just a Korea thing nowadays. Korea is leading but the entire world is going to be hit by that

population growth is crashing worldwide

[calm pulsar]

I saw a ton of reels about cheap real estate in Japan
maybe I should move before ww3 sets off

[tidal frigate]

Well somehow poverty = more kids

[tidal frigate]

Best one would be iceland

[glacial wind]

Japan is unique because they treat housing as disposable

[cyan lark]

Solving the world's problems in #🔧│keyboard_modding ?

[calm pulsar]

it's probably similar in US where they have hurricanes and stuff

[glacial wind]

So you don’t buy property to invest and its value doesn’t go up outside of specific Tokyo regions

[sacred elm]

https://tenor.com/view/fact-check-poland-polish-patriots-polish-fact-check-gif-11290677148453805758

[glacial wind]

Japan has its own big issue though in that their economy might be about to completely crash

[tidal frigate]

Didnt it already?

[glacial wind]

Yeah but it might happen again and worse than what happened to Greece if they don’t figure something out

Their debt is now 260%+ of gdp

[calm pulsar]

might be my ticket to moving somewhere if I keep working on this singaporean office for dollars

[sweet oak]

This post was fact checked by TRUE Crunch Church Members

[tidal frigate]

Euro happend to them

[glacial wind]

I don’t know what euro has to do with it

[calm pulsar]

these 2 words together look so good

Crunch Church

[glacial wind]

It’s their own problem caused by long term debt issue

[tidal frigate]

They had a lot of money borrowed

After getting euro everything collapsed

[glacial wind]

Yeah that’s not really why japans economy is in trouble lol

it has nothing to do with euro stuff

[ionic breach]

he talking greece

[tidal frigate]

Aging Population

Is issue in Japan

[glacial wind]

I have no idea what he’s talking about half the time honestly

outside of when he says Poland is the best

[sacred elm]

[calm pulsar]

this conversation got so hilarious lmao

[sacred elm]

Real and true

[tidal frigate]

Lets go back to food

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/fact-check-poland-polish-patriots-polish-fact-check-gif-11290677148453805758

[sacred elm]

go sleep bro💔

[ionic breach]

it is funny how we achieved a longer lifespan and that has cause a suprisingly amt of damage to us

[sacred elm]

ok ok its time for "reborn rich" @glacial wind

[glacial wind]

well countries just need governments that are willing to do unpopular but good things

[ionic breach]

but tbf people retire later, so its not that bad

[glacial wind]

But everyone runs away from fixing budget issues because it’s unpopular lol

[chilly mural]

killing off people that's 70 and older?

it's unpopular

[calm pulsar]

[glacial wind]

I think reborn rich is literally 2nd highest rated cable k drama ever

[sacred elm]

😳

[tidal frigate]

Fixing budget = removing lots of benefits

[sacred elm]

is itaewon class first

[glacial wind]

Probably raise taxes before they go the killing people route

[chilly mural]

oh

[glacial wind]

I think itaewon class is 7th

[sacred elm]

oh

[chilly mural]

mmm, I mean, my government do started raising tax and removing loophole that makes food cheaper

sad

[tidal frigate]

Making kids should be their main priority

[glacial wind]

Reborn rich had a bigger main character starring but it’s also based on a webtoon like itaewon class

[chilly mural]

but then they spend 10mil to make bad decision

[ionic breach]

singapore has a really good way to make people have kids

and that still is barely working

so its kinda doomed

[uneven cradle]

The wealth divide in every country is growing larger and COVID definitely made it go up to the next level

[glacial wind]

Yeah even Singapore is struggling to keep housing prices from going crazy

[chilly mural]

if we're happier and have reason to be with other people, more people going to have kids

[glacial wind]

And it previously had a great housing scheme before it lost control of prices lately

[chilly mural]

unfortunately, it takes a car to meet my friend and I don't own one

[ionic breach]

tying marrage with cheap housing kept us afloat for a long time

[stray tiger]

All that food talk reminded me that we had a new Korean fried chicken place open up recently that I need to go and try.

[glacial wind]

Korean fried chicken is never an incorrect choice

[tawdry tree]

KFC 🔥

[glacial wind]

at some point they’re going to export level 2 to non Korea and it will blow peoples minds

There’s popular chains in Korea now that do baked chicken that you’d have a hard time knowing it’s not fried chicken

[calm pulsar]

in my town we only have bubble tea and corn dog places

for all the stans

[glacial wind]

who invented corn dogs anyhow

Is that originally a US thing

[cyan lark]

AFAIK yes

And to the first question, a visionary

(I've yet to have one)

[glacial wind]

Korea did have its corn dog phase where they were on every corner with mixes of mozzarella blocks inside the corn dogs

[calm pulsar]

the place here sells them as Korean corn dogs

could be just bs lol

[glacial wind]

I assume it does the Korean trend ones

With cheese and dip in sugar or other things

[ionic breach]

a lot of wacky stuff originates from american state fairs

[glacial wind]

Actually the best fair food I had was still fresh cinnamon sugar donuts when it’s still hot and they just cover it with cinnamon and sugar

[calm pulsar]

indeed, cause it looks like this

[tidal frigate]

No one tried making zapiekanka outside of Poland

[cyan lark]

Nobody wants to

[glacial wind]

Makes sense. These stalls were everywhere in Korea for like 3-6 months

[tidal frigate]

Definetly looks korean. You know why?

[glacial wind]

That was right after the Korean French fry phase

[calm pulsar]

wdym? we make zapekanka here

[tidal frigate]

Show me

Or i dont belive

[glacial wind]

I miss the Korean French fry phase actually. They had fresh fried chips with tons of sauce options everywhere

[tidal frigate]

Thats babka ziemniaczana

[stray tiger]

@thorn zealot just got word that the Mars Cadet child kits arrived in warehouse today so I expect them to be live in the morning.

[calm pulsar]

well now it's all the rage outside of Korea

[thorn zealot]

🙏

hopefully i get paid tmr then

[calm pulsar]

oh you meant french fry

thought you were talking abt corn dogs

[glacial wind]

the corn dog phase was good too

[tidal frigate]

@calm pulsar you dont have Polish fast food then

[glacial wind]

We just finishing up the end of the sugar fruit phase right now in Korea I think

Is tanghulu everywhere outside of Korea yet

[calm pulsar]

that we probably dont

[calm pulsar]

we do have a lot of sweets from Poland though

in stores

[tidal frigate]

Zapiekanka is good

[uneven cradle]

I went to Moms Touch to get my honkai star rail combo

[glacial wind]

A good choice. They have the best chicken burgers in Korea

[uneven cradle]

If Eddie Lees endorsing it I had to try it out ya know

[thorn zealot]

i fixed this server for me

[calm pulsar]

in russia we have a pizza place collabing with genshin

[glacial wind]

You’re missing the Sony lens channel

[calm pulsar]

this looks good

[thorn zealot]

wouldve kept it if i could

[tidal frigate]

@calm pulsar looks zapiekanka is easy, baguette cut in half,mushrooms in bottom, cheese into oven then ketchup on top

@glacial wind am i addicted if i would eat 3700 g of same chips in two months?

[calm pulsar]

its funny that the zapekankas between russia and poland are entirely different, just like some words that sound the same but mean opposite things

[tropic urchin]

New glass pad arc

Maybe Goku buys it

[tidal frigate]

Zapiekanka fastfood and Zapiekanka is diffrent thing

Thing you shown was babka z ziemniaczana

[uneven cradle]

I just remember my friends ordering a plate of fried chicken to themselves and I warned them beforehand that the serving size was going to be for at least two

[tidal frigate]

So it is not zapiekanka

[tidal frigate]

I can eat it alone

Thats small portion size

Also why watered down coca cola

[glacial wind]

That’s boneless, it’s a lot of fried chicken lol

[tidal frigate]

Thats just chicken breast

[uneven cradle]

Was pretty large portion size guy in the back is 6'5"

[ionic breach]

thigh no?

[tidal frigate]

Might be

[glacial wind]

Yeah usually one portion like that is for 2 people at least

[polar girder]

Same

[glacial wind]

like if I order one Korean fried chicken portion it’s usually for me and wife

[tidal frigate]

Just give me Barbecue sauce and i can eat it alone

[glacial wind]

I’m pretty sure they kick you out of Korea if you put bbq sauce on fried chicken

[tidal frigate]

Because Polish kfc gave me bigger portions on small bucket

[tidal frigate]

As dip

[glacial wind]

Yeah that’s not a thing in Korea

[tidal frigate]

For extra flavour

[glacial wind]

You don’t use bbq sauce for fried chicken here

[tropic urchin]

Korea not saucy 🥀

[tidal frigate]

So no wonder you cant eat it whole

[glacial wind]

they have their own sauces

[tidal frigate]

Because your mouth get dried

[tropic urchin]

I demand pics or it didn’t happen

[ionic breach]

or a mountain of onions

[uneven cradle]

If you want sauce you order the chicken that has been cooked in sauce already

[glacial wind]

It’s their own version of sweet and sour but a little spicy

That’s their national chicken sauce

Then they also do honey soy garlic and such, but never bbq

[tidal frigate]

I prefer dipping because i can control how much sauce i have

[calm pulsar]

damn Im getting messages at work now and missing all the food talk

[tropic urchin]

Honey soy garlic sounds fire actually

[calm pulsar]

[tidal frigate]

And it is not soggy

[tidal frigate]

Do you have proper garlic sauce atleast

[ionic breach]

speaking of fried chicken'

for the life of me i cannot tell the difference in normal and buttermilk fried chicken

[tidal frigate]

Like 20 cloves and proper home made thick mayoneese

[glacial wind]

I don’t think their garlic sauce is the same as yours

that’s a Europe thing

[tidal frigate]

I want feel garlic

If it burns

It is good garlic sauce

[glacial wind]

Koreans use this for all their basic chicken sauce

[uneven cradle]

T1 base camp food was pretty damn good for a PC bang 😋

[glacial wind]

It’s sweet and sour but with red pepper paste

[tidal frigate]

Koreans eat soggy fried chicken?

[glacial wind]

You eat it fresh

Korean fried chicken is usually voted the best fried chicken in the world

[tidal frigate]

If you get small portion it will be soggy on last piece

[glacial wind]

People who don’t come to Korea don’t realize that fried chicken is the literal most popular store in Korea

It’s probably fried chicken chains then kbbq after that

[uneven cradle]

True and food delivery goated in Korea too

[calm pulsar]

now I gotta make a list of things I want to try in Korea as well

[tidal frigate]

Isint it like oil based

[glacial wind]

You can look up recipe online it’s called yangnyeom sauce

[polar girder]

I just had Korean fried chicken today

Half and half soy garlic and spicy

[tidal frigate]

Can you food deliver vodka in korea or more weird stuff

[calm pulsar]

or more weird stuff like zapiekankas

[glacial wind]

Alcohol is available at every convenience store

[tidal frigate]

No more weird

[glacial wind]

You don’t need that delivered

[cyan lark]

You have a trip planned?

Or bucket list-y 🙂

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind well we can do it from delivery app so no need going out

I think you can order everything from glovo

[glacial wind]

I don’t think you realize quite how saturated the convenience store thing is in Korea

[tidal frigate]

By everything i mean everything

[calm pulsar]

right now im saving up for a trip to Japan, but want to visit Korea as well at a later point

[glacial wind]

I have maybe 10 convenience stores within a 5 min walk of me

[cyan lark]

Jakubix, I have to ask- have you ever left your country?

[glacial wind]

Lol

[tidal frigate]

We have like 20 żabkas in 500m range

[cyan lark]

Nice!

[glacial wind]

Delivery apps are quite common in most modern countries now btw

It’s not just a Poland thing

[uneven cradle]

True and they all sell alcohol and lots of it 🍹

[tidal frigate]

Yes i did. To our old lands

[cyan lark]

Where's that?

[glacial wind]

If it’s a 500 meter range in kr or japan it’s probably more like 100 convenience stores

[calm pulsar]

any country that is near Poland probably

[uneven cradle]

Here's my at home attempt at making fried chicken with yangnyeom sauce

[tidal frigate]

Czech republic and lithuania

[cyan lark]

It just seems like you don't have much context for what's outside of Poland and its neighbors

You gotta get out there!

I would love to go to Korea, seems like a trip

[uneven cradle]

Was a fun time for sure

[tidal frigate]

Can you order stuff from top floor japannese store, you know what floor... that floor in your delivery app?

[glacial wind]

Yeah

You can do that in most countries now via various apps

[tidal frigate]

"That" stuff

[glacial wind]

folks will deliver anything

[tidal frigate]

Sussy stuff

You know

[glacial wind]

I’d more question why you need it delivered via a random uber driver when it can be delivered via normal means in 5 hours

[tidal frigate]

Well it is possible

You can even order meds too

[uneven cradle]

My friend ordered a custom PC in Korea and had it delivered to his house 4 hours after placing the order

[glacial wind]

I don’t think you realize those delivery apps are in every modern city now

it’s not just a Poland thing

[tidal frigate]

You dont have blik tho

[cyan lark]

😂

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/fact-check-poland-polish-patriots-polish-fact-check-gif-11290677148453805758

[glacial wind]

Australia had blik variant before blik was a thing btw. Let’s not go down the weird Poland thing again lol

[sacred elm]

https://tenor.com/view/fact-check-poland-polish-patriots-polish-fact-check-gif-11290677148453805758

[chilly mural]

pretty normal in big city

[tidal frigate]

Blik is better and longer on Market

[tropic urchin]

Going down weird Poland rabbit hole will always happen

[chilly mural]

but damn, that time to make a custom is pretty fast

[glacial wind]

Neither of what you just said is true

[tidal frigate]

And Austrians are starting to understand how blik is good

[glacial wind]

blik came out after similar system existed in Australia already

[uneven cradle]

Don't think it's that normal to custom pick out parts and have them build your PC and deliver it to you in 4 hours

[glacial wind]

no one is talking down on how great your polish services are but a lot of what you have is also available in other countries

[tidal frigate]

Whats most important blik is compatible with everything

Just plug your banking system and people could use blik

[glacial wind]

They have Coupang here these days too, which is like Amazon local delivery so it all comes guaranteed by next day

[calm pulsar]

so like a lot of apps these days

[tidal frigate]

Blik requires all banks working together so using Blik is seamless

Polish people cant live without blik now

[glacial wind]

Although I don’t know how great that is because apparently much like Amazon they slave drive their drivers to work crazy fast and long hours

[glacial wind]

That’s literally how a lot of bank app systems work in many countries

For example Australia just uses pay id now and before that it was called osko

Which is just an email or username to send money any bank to any bank in Aus

And it’s instant

[calm pulsar]

we have SBP which functions similarly for stores and also allows you to transfer money via a phone number, no matter what bank

so yeah most of the world has smth similar now

[uneven cradle]

It's even built into our public transport system in Auckland at least you can just paywave with your card or phone and get on the bus/train

No need for a bus card

[chilly mural]

hmm, I feel a sense of deja vu

[calm pulsar]

have you ever shopped at Playtech?

[glacial wind]

PayWave really was such a great invention

[uneven cradle]

I have, not in person though

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind payid is only for sending money

While blik is for everything

[glacial wind]

It’s still weird to me that Australia/nz was somehow the first the mass adoption the whole paywave thing

[cyan lark]

Jakubix, Poland is the tech/banking center of nowhere my friend. We all have the same or better tools, I promise you.

[glacial wind]

Lol

[tidal frigate]

Then why blik is already used in atleast four countries outside of Poland

[calm pulsar]

totally random question, I'm just binge watching Viva La Dirt League and learned that Playtech is a real store

[cyan lark]

😆

[glacial wind]

What I never get is that jakubix literally has no knowledge outside of Poland and always insists these things don’t exist elsewhere lol

[uneven cradle]

Hate to tell you but my card wirelessly worked in Korea as well as it did in NZ

[glacial wind]

Yeah Korea finally adopted paywave in last few years but it was real rough before

[tidal frigate]

If it was better. It would be implement in Poland

[calm pulsar]

he's probably just happy to engage in conversation

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind actually if you didnt know Poland have one of best banking systems

[glacial wind]

im sure its swell jakubix lol

[uneven cradle]

Yeah Koreans love a MasterCard though, we just paid through our Korean friends for some extra discounts

[tidal frigate]

If something is done well, there was definetly Pole in chain of making

[cyan lark]

Yes that's the common Polish joke. Wait...

[glacial wind]

Okay now you’ve jumped the shark. The whole Poland banking thing is as trustworthy as the wooting church of truth thing now

[cyan lark]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_joke

[calm pulsar]

polish patriots fact checking gif

[tidal frigate]

[glacial wind]

The weird part is Koreans don’t have payWave themselves because Samsung pay was the leading party for so long

So it’s mostly foreigners who have paywave cards

[calm pulsar]

you can't state something, then have everyone question that statement and send copium emotes as a reply

[tidal frigate]

Hes coping

[uneven cradle]

Wish that Samsung pay took off here, the tech they had with spoofing the signal of an eftpos card swiping to wirelessly pay at any eftpos terminal would have been so cool

[tidal frigate]

There is no danger of spoofing if you use blik

[glacial wind]

There’s no danger of spoofing on a lot of the other systems too

[cyan lark]

God I wish I had Blik

[glacial wind]

The weird thing is I looked up blik before last time he talked about this and it’s only existed since 2015

[tidal frigate]

Only foreigners use applepay

[cyan lark]

Does foreigner mean non-Polish?

i.e. the whole world? (minus one little bit)

[tidal frigate]

More like tourists

[cyan lark]

Where are they touring?

Not Poland 😉

[uneven cradle]

Anyway best burger comp is in town again

[cyan lark]

Goddamn, I didn't have dinner yet

[tidal frigate]

ngl Poland is quite unique country because we have everything.

[glacial wind]

That’s a very New Zealand price

[calm pulsar]

It's starting to smell like #cooking in here cause Turing is cooking Jakubix right now

[cyan lark]

True that price is brutal

[uneven cradle]

Yeah... 💸

[glacial wind]

If you live in a few other places you’ll quickly realize that a lot of places have advantages that other countries don’t have

[uneven cradle]

That's around $16 USD equivalent

[tidal frigate]

I already know cons other countries have

[glacial wind]

No one country has it all

[tidal frigate]

Thats why Poland is better for me

[uneven cradle]

No bias for sure

[glacial wind]

Lol

[tidal frigate]

Definetly not

[cyan lark]

Marry your first gf

[glacial wind]

Like Australia has probably the best banking apps and services in the world, but Singapore has better food, Vancouver has better air and water and Korea has better transportation

[tidal frigate]

Have you seen Polish banking app

[glacial wind]

Yeah I had a look at your polish bank websites earlier

They suck compared to the aus ones

[uneven cradle]

Have you seen any banking app that isn't polish

[tidal frigate]

Yes

[glacial wind]

aus and nz is a bit unique in that area though in that they got into the app game way earlier

[jade storm]

playtech isn't real

[glacial wind]

for whatever reason they adopted apps and a lot of services way earlier than almost any other country

[jade storm]

only Rowan and the clan work there

[glacial wind]

So they’ve had a lot more time to streamline and make it nice

[tidal frigate]

Still no cheap fiber internet

[calm pulsar]

what about techtown

[glacial wind]

yeah that’s where Aus failed because their government fought over installing fiber for ages

[tidal frigate]

Well i will have my fiber internet this year

[glacial wind]

That’s where other countries do better

[calm pulsar]

I thought poland adopted it in 1996

[uneven cradle]

I've had fibre since 2013

[glacial wind]

For example Korea has 10 gigabit fiber if I want it right now

[tidal frigate]

How much tho

For month

[glacial wind]

Iirc like $90 a month maybe

[tidal frigate]

Sounds reasonable

[glacial wind]

I don’t pay for it because it’s overkill

The slowest internet you can get in Korea is already fiber

[uneven cradle]

What kind of options does your app give you to control what you want to do with your cards?

[tidal frigate]

@glacial wind is it symetric?

[glacial wind]

The literal free bundled internet with phone in Korea is fiber already

[jade storm]

that one's real.

[glacial wind]

100/100 yes

that’s base fiber level for basically free

[tidal frigate]

I cant screen shot my mobile app because it blocked from screen shoting

[tidal frigate]

10000 / 10000 ?

[uneven cradle]

In sure they have examples on their website on how the app the works since it's polish made

[glacial wind]

Yeah, although I don’t know anyone who pays for it since it’s pointless

[tidal frigate]

Well symetric fiber is not that Popular i poland, but also I do not have access to business plan

[uneven cradle]

Yeah we have that in some areas here too not that anybody needs that

[glacial wind]

you don’t need a business plan in Korea

That’s just basic internet at 100/100, then I think iirc the $50 plan is 2.5 or 5 gigabit and so on

[cyan lark]

Can host a datacenter outta your home 🙂

[chilly mural]

I can live with that

[tidal frigate]

Well we have 10gb / 10gb but only for big cities and viliges that are under specific isp for like 100usd

[glacial wind]

Korea is unique because population density means the entire city is wired for high speed fiber easily

[tidal frigate]

But i wont have Access to symetric internet

[glacial wind]

Most folks don’t need more honestly

[calm pulsar]

I have access to symmetric bottom row and im happy with that

[glacial wind]

Like 500/500 is already overkill even

[tidal frigate]

Well i could pay extra for symetric but isp dosent want make money

[glacial wind]

I think the brands just like doing it to flex because Koreas been leader in internet for so long

[uneven cradle]

I got 500/500 could pay for more but don't need

[tidal frigate]

Swiss people even have 10gb symetric for fucking 25€

I'am fucking jelous

[calm pulsar]

do you really need that though

[glacial wind]

there’s no real gain

Once you have a few hundred+ you don’t even notice more

[tidal frigate]

My familly dosent know whats a dowland limiter

[glacial wind]

you can literally run downloads on everything at once and have room still

[tidal frigate]

You dont know my familly

They would use whole 500gb fully

[glacial wind]

Gb?

[calm pulsar]

wait you guys are talking about internet traffic limits?

[glacial wind]

Yeah I’m confused now

Why is he bringing up 500gb

[tidal frigate]

500mbs

My bad

[glacial wind]

some countries do limit still though for gb

Korea is unlimited but Australia still have download limits for most plans iirc

[tidal frigate]

I had no limit internet since i was born

[cyan lark]

Ngh Poland so good

[tidal frigate]

Look having internet like one of first in village was good

[uneven cradle]

I had a cap back in the early days of broadband they went away pretty quickly though

[cyan lark]

I didn't even have internet when I was born T_T

backwards-ass place

[tidal frigate]

Early what year tho

[uneven cradle]

That would have been ~2008-10

[glacial wind]

I didn’t have internet but that’s cause it didn’t exist

[cyan lark]

Oh right

[calm pulsar]

I remember figuring out how to download Twilight from torrents for my mom when I was like 10

[tidal frigate]

Thats not early

[calm pulsar]

at 12 kb/s

[tidal frigate]

Early would be 90s

[cyan lark]

Compuserve live

[uneven cradle]

Was early for me I was on dial up previous to that

[cyan lark]

life*

[tidal frigate]

I think in like 2010 we started changing from copper to fiber already in Poland

[uneven cradle]

And you still don't have it?

[tidal frigate]

Dialup was a thing in Poland like in 90s

[tidal frigate]

Ye my village was forgotten for years in fiber expansion. But this year i will have fiber

Remember fiber is mostly founded in my country by goverment

[cyan lark]

Many countries

Not to keep banging the drum 🙂

[uneven cradle]

Ours is fully funded including the installation to your house even if they have to dig up your driveway to get the lines in

[cyan lark]

Public infrastructure investments and all that

[calm pulsar]

imagine inventing fiber internet and not even providing it to every citizen smh

[cyan lark]

Cruelty

[tidal frigate]

Isint it what they are supossed to do it?

[glacial wind]

does Poland have good chicken burgers though

What’s the best polish chicken burger chain

[tidal frigate]

We dont have one

[cyan lark]

I want chicken so bad after all this chat

[glacial wind]

Whelp Poland just dropped in rankings I guess

[uneven cradle]

Yes and that's what they did (in 2014 to my house)

[glacial wind]

No chicken burger is a big red flag for country

[tidal frigate]

But some burger spots might have chicken burgers

Technicly there is fancy burger restaurant chain

[glacial wind]

At least Australia has access to nandos and oporto

[tidal frigate]

And they have Chicken burgers

[glacial wind]

Poland below Australia now due to this chicken burger development

[tidal frigate]

Nandos is British

@glacial wind you have Polish kfc

[glacial wind]

nandos is indeed British, but it’s popular in Aus as well

[tidal frigate]

Really recommend grander
