[tropic urchin]

damnit who’s paying for my vella now

[harsh dove]

I was deciding what to do with them

[fluid ravine]

Bro took his sweet time

[little glen]

Mango wtf HAHAHHA

[little glen]

Is that the new deadlock character

[fluid ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/sea-lion-gif-6274474972916726262

[sweet oak]

yeah

[little glen]

I gotta say, i think whoever gets hacked by those scammers is probably young

[harsh dove]

yeah

[sly palm]

Or old

[fluid ravine]

I could never

[little glen]

I‘m sorry but if you‘re old and know who logan paul is and trust him to give you free money you have way bigger problems

[fluid ravine]

[little glen]

Like you should probably be seeing a professional

[fluid ravine]

Damn

[sly palm]

or you might need money

[fluid ravine]

[little glen]

I think if you really need the money you 1. shouldnt be on a luxury keyboard discord in the first place and 2, you‘ve probably been around for long enough to know that that shit is not ever going to be real

[fluid ravine]

Just get a j*b

[little glen]

No

[fluid ravine]

[sly palm]

I mean you are right, but some people not as smart as others

[little glen]

I think its mainly just a thing of experience

You know who doesnt have that

Very young people

[fluid ravine]

How young..

[little glen]

You decide

[fluid ravine]

Alpha kids

[little glen]

Just set the threshold in such a way that it suits you

[tropic urchin]

we call em yuncs around here type shiii

[fluid ravine]

Shi guess I'm one of them

11 more months

[tropic urchin]

well its purposely number less

[fluid ravine]

Lmao

[tropic urchin]

Uncs and Yuncs most affected

more news at 11

[little glen]

11 more months and then you‘re 👨‍🦲 ?

Anyway, sleep time

Have fun getting hacked by all the popular youtubers nobody likes to watch

[robust siren]

your people

[robust siren]

exactly what i said

[fluid ravine]

lmao

[tropic urchin]

what ABS keycaps do i buy for 80HE 🤔

@fluid ravine @robust siren this is a tuff call

[chrome igloo]

While cleaning, I broke a couple stabalizers and a screw head?
How do I find the right (or bettet) replacement stabalizers?

And what can I do about the screw mount?

[cyan lark]

Guys I just found out Logan Paul is gonna send me a bunch of crypto ‼️ 🤑

[fluid ravine]

silber?

[tropic urchin]

ye

I think you can make right work a bit on silver even if it wont really match super well

Cosmos on silver wasnt the worst ive ever seen and it should have more color to it with actual legends

the different reds would probably be the easier fit on it, but undecided since PBT sucks for marbly profile

[robust siren]

2

[tropic urchin]

I think im still halfway leaning selene, but the red cherry mod and cream alphas are alluring

fuck

[cyan lark]

Didn’t think I’d see the day you’d turn your back on Seline shaking my smh head

[robust siren]

by 2 i meant both

[tropic urchin]

if you zoom in on the updated renders it looks alot less sparkly

thats why

looks different from the zoomed in renders

[cyan lark]

Case of the cosmos dusties

[cyan lark]

I see what you mean

[tropic urchin]

that and i think i like the more saturated lighter purple variant more than the darker one

yeah idk

[thorn zealot]

did i miss out on gettin free nitro?!?!!?

[ionic breach]

theres a stabs guide in modding_faq

i would get the knight v3/4 stabs as they are the easiest to lube

[cyan lark]

Sorry buddy I’ll @ you next time

[ionic breach]

oh yea btw

all stabs comes dry and unbalanced

u will have to lube and balance them

[thorn zealot]

ty unc

[chrome igloo]

Thank you. What do I do about the screw mount?

[grizzled cedar]

do you guys recommend to use conductive sponge for TOfu redux for v2 friction fit or no need for that?

[ionic breach]

no clue, whats the issue

[glass dragon]

Only if its the alu/brass (metal) variants

[chilly mural]

<@&1098943457654997093>

[sturdy rock]

Do they not know that people don’t fall for these anymore

[chrome igloo]

This blue screw mount/standoff broke off from the red hole. Its supposed to look like the yellow one

@ionic breach

[ionic breach]

id ask wooting support honestly

never seen that happen

[fluid ravine]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7oE40SiFssg we need to make this

[chilly mural]

I like this. Easy to clean, easy to replace, and easy to move.

[fluid ravine]

@harsh dove dont edge em

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine mobius sound test tomorrow morning

and then maybe friction fit test

[chilly wagon]

are there any good low profile stabs for 3.4mm switches?

[tulip rapids]

finna steal that purple keycap set

[young viper]

THE NOVELTIES

Beautiful

[dusky geyser]

anyone have any idea how long this pre-order will take?

also if there is a pretty big difference in quality between the wooting zinc case and this one

[young viper]

Real similar quality wise. Id suggest checking out the ego-80 which is very similarly priced and is constantly in stock. It can be found on AliExpress

[ionic breach]

the coating is better

[dusky geyser]

what about sound? ive heard about some pingign issues. also is black zinc v2 supposed to release soon?

[ionic breach]

id say a bit higher pitch, but im not 100%

i wouldnt buy for sound

just looks

[deft jolt]

pink lotus arrived

[fallen pecan]

This gh60 case is trending among Chinese builders: 399 yuan, supports leaf spring / gasket / bottom mount, ball catch

[uneven cradle]

those chromeheart keycaps

[deft jolt]

yeah it's popping off

should I order

[fallen pecan]

the special edition only restocking after cny i believe

the silver and black with etched feathers on the bottom

[boreal violet]

Got new switches in the mail today

Time to test out the sound

[cloud crane]

Nah twin save up for F1-60 722 trust

[boreal violet]

when would you call keycaps "too loose" cuz on the sticky rice switches the first key i put in i can put it up with my finger without a tool but upside down it stays put

[deft jolt]

sticky rice?

[deft jolt]

ah knew it

[deft jolt]

I don't rmb facing this issue with my sticky rice

but I didn't like them, so I didn't use em much

[boreal violet]

yep, v2 i think

i like em more than my jade's i think

[deft jolt]

I also have v2

it's defo better than jades

[boreal violet]

i ordered these and deep clack flux

wanna build a new board with the flux'

[deft jolt]

my pink lotus and jade delta arrived today

also a new iem

[deft jolt]

they are nice, just pull it up carefully and directly straight up

or u risk breaking pins

[stoic sparrow]

thanks will check it out

[boreal violet]

ye i liked the sound test a lot and like the thocky sound so ppl recommended those

should be here before end of week

just researching how the ow60 works with the split spacebar since i wanna use that case

[deft jolt]

it's defo deep, but not really like a thock?

most HE has a variation of clack

[boreal violet]

i know im never gonna get a true thock but close enough is fine

[deft jolt]

or unless u get silents and shi

[deft jolt]

all cases support split spacebar

[boreal violet]

Performance is most important for me anyway

[deft jolt]

u just need them keycaps

[boreal violet]

yeah but the cf plate wont work with the spacebar

and mounting a bit diff no?

[deft jolt]

pink lotus is the successor of deep clacky flux, but I haven't tried it yet

[deft jolt]

? yeah split spacebar depends on your plate

and u need keycaps for em

[sacred elm]

You basically put stock v2 split module in the OW60. You don't need to use anything from Owlab.

[boreal violet]

keycaps is fine

[deft jolt]

but case wise they fit

unless u want some special mount then u gotta think abt that

[boreal violet]

so you just friction fit it in

[sacred elm]

Yes

[boreal violet]

and screw the front lip back on and done

[sacred elm]

You can use their sticky poron foam instead of preinstalled tape mod, but that's up to you

[untold wigeon]

What is the closest switch to this dual rail switch by Gateron? https://youtu.be/3pZN8vMEBfs

I like the sound of Jade Gaming switches but not sure if there is an upgraded version

[sacred elm]

Listen to sound tests and compare https://link.wooting.io/soundtests

[untold wigeon]

😭

[sacred elm]

tbh anything from the top will sound better than Jade Gaming

They're not worth it anymore

[untold wigeon]

Yeah i don't think i would like anything but silent after hearing those sound tests

not sure if it's the pings or what but some sound awful

[little glen]

So you want no sound?

I personally think TTC horses, deep clack flux and kailh ice creams sounded good in the tests

Those are the switches i am currently looking at potentially buying

Also keep in mind that the way a board is built and how the sound test is recorded change how things sound on video

So dont compare sound tests accross sources

[sacred elm]

If you don't like those then you'll hate Jade Gaming

Stick to silent switches then

[random dagger]

if i'm lucky today i receive my ice ultras

[fallen pecan]

2280 yuan, heh

supports mx and mag switches

[little glen]

pudding keycaps and ugly font

pick a struggle

[austere creek]

no ditto only? welp guess i wont get one

[fallen pecan]

ur studio ice ultra R2: https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=1017522800218 1.7 yuan per switch at the cheapest

[fringe quarry]

damn actually worked

[broken notch]

How much dollaroos is that?

[fallen pecan]

~320 usd

[broken notch]

Oooooooft

Thank you

[broken notch]

Sorry for the ping toasty, where did you purchase these?

[fringe quarry]

keytok

[cloud crane]

Nothing much changed...

[broken notch]

How do you add a coupon on keytok? I don't see the option

[fallen pecan]

as with all shopify apps, during checkout

[fringe quarry]

yep

[fallen pecan]

just the double prisms i think

[last heron]

Hey Guys! I just swapped my switches to Owlab Ti HE. How should I calibrate them in Wootility since their travel distance is shorter than the stock Lekkers?

[glossy pagoda]

Head on over to https://beta.wootility.io and select the fact that you've installed the Owlabs Ti HE in the switch selector section

[last heron]

Ahh, its the beta one, thank you so much! 😊

[severe prism]

My pc is about mid category what polling rate should i use? 2-3000?

[sacred elm]

[severe prism]

Or its not optimazable is it just 8000?

[sacred elm]

Are you talking about Wooting? If so, you can only choose 1000 or 8000hz

High polling rate on a keyboard has no impact on performance, so I suggest using 8000hz

[broken notch]

I'm gutted, I now realised I missed the GMK Shadow back in 2023, really wanted that keycap set

[fringe quarry]

im sure you can find one

[broken notch]

They are very pricy

I found the base latin set for 160ish, which is okay. But the novelties add another 72 usd, jeez

[pliant garden]

Is there any sound tests of the gravastar UFO with the holy60?

[broken notch]

Actually yes

I made one

It's not great quality the recording but it might help you?

[peak breach]

Dawg if u buying a holy case there’s no point going for sound

[tropic urchin]

0.1/0.1

[thorn zealot]

The best settings is pressin quit to desktop

[trail bane]

For linux: sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root
For windows: taskkill /f /im wininit.exe

please don’t try this lol

[cyan lark]

https://tenor.com/view/master-yoda-star-wars-do-or-do-not-there-is-no-try-gif-12852639

I just ran sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root and I feel like my computer is running really well now but it's starting to act a little wei

[trail bane]

There’s no way that this bro is really comparing the 80HE with pure gold keyboard 🥀

[tropic urchin]

“Sooo heaavvyy”

Bro has gold keycaps on an Asus/Razer clone keyboard

[pliant garden]

I mean yes to a point, but just because the holy case affects the sound doesnt mean I still cant find the most suitable for me sound out of what is available

[tropic urchin]

Actual clown behavior on that chap @trail bane

[pliant garden]

thanks!

[trail bane]

I’m sowwy

Or wai

[trail bane]

@tropic urchin Are you talking about me?

I can’t fucking understand

[tropic urchin]

No the guy with the golden XPG, was just a weird exchange flexing gold keycaps when he’s just using what looks like a cloned keyboard

Was ultimately agreeing with you

[trail bane]

Everything fell into place, damn. I thought that since the ping came after the statement, it was directed at me

[tropic urchin]

Sorry if that got mixed up

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine forgot i cant test friction fict becuase spacebar layout isnt right

and id need to cut it a bunch for the other stuff

anyways heres mobius

[tropic urchin]

No Vella OFD, the Gods have spoken 🥀😭

[robust siren]

skill issue

hmm

pbtfan crosshair time

[tropic urchin]

Not tenz lore accurate crosshair

#cloned

[robust siren]

pbtfan crosshair set does not have keys for split 7u or split right shift

im missing blank 1u key and the fn key

[chilly mural]

He's compensating

[fallen pecan]

keyhouse on TB has a bow with red cyrillic instead of japanese

Jkdk has the split space but sold out in all stores

[fringe quarry]

i ordered the Key Kobo WoB Spacebar Kit

not PBT tho

[lyric nimbus]

ok this has nothing to do with me because i got owlabs but im curious

is there anything stopping wooting from switching over to tikkens entirely for 2hes

[lusty river]

hey, do "fake" switches exist? are there fake products or shouldnt I be scared of that? thanks!!

[uneven cradle]

Can't imagine they're flying off the shelves like other keyboards and would require refitting, testing and qcing an updated assembly process

[cyan lark]

Switches not so much. There's certainly knockoff keyboards.

[lyric nimbus]

i keep forgetting

gamers like small keyboards

[lusty river]

alright thank you! I was thinking of getting these switches here - since none of the other sellers ship to my country or are super expensive
but they sold 0, so I guess im the first one haha
https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005011569338399.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.1a414ae4M03uSk&mp=1&pdp_npi=6%40dis!EUR!EUR 56.69!EUR 56.69!!EUR 56.69!!!%40211b615317694469681986899e7eac!12000055946642380!ct!DE!4726338966!!1!0!&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu

[lyric nimbus]

people who use fullsize are probably better off choosing an MX kb

[lyric nimbus]

wtf $70 for 90pc deep clacks

i am so jealous...

[sacred elm]

Not only gamers

[lyric nimbus]

i thought fluxes were double that price

[lyric nimbus]

and enthusiasts sure

[sacred elm]

People just don't like having useless keys

[lusty river]

All the other stores sell them for double the price, Im also a bit spectical!

[lyric nimbus]

it might be a shipping thing ngl

idk

[lyric nimbus]

ok thats fair

me likey a lot of keys

[uneven cradle]

Would say it's very popular in the mainstream but mainstream people aren't buying Wooting keyboards

[lusty river]

yeah, I might just go for it and see what comes out
There are other sellers who people order from that sell around the same price, but they dont ship to me :( I might just try these

[warped glade]

I like small keyboards because I’m a small person and ergonomically my right shoulder was suffering from years of having to hold the mouse out to the side that extra distance

[sacred elm]

Those seem legit, I highly doubt there are any fake Fluxes

[lusty river]

Thanks for your response!! Ill order then and see 🙏

[cyan lark]

Seems reasonable, also a good switch. Godspeed

[lyric nimbus]

dude i cant wait for all my parts to arrive

[sacred elm]

If ordering directly from Wuque, yeah, but on AliExpress they're very cheap. Can find some for $50/90 I think

[lyric nimbus]

once the prototype works i get to commission a full PC case

then once thats done im gonna show it to my high school engineering teacher on what i designed

:)

this would've been like

a bigger pain in the ass if i wasn't taught CAD at high school

[humble surge]

no, its been floating at 70 usd for a while

[tropic urchin]

Depends on region, think US is $1 and some EU/other countries can get it cheaper

[uneven cradle]

But it's so cold ou5 I don't wanna go outside

Cf plate ready to ship

Come on, the cable might be cold too. Let them in

[fluid ravine]

The cold is for the weak

I got it

Literally just came back in

[chilly mural]

Mmm, chill

[chrome igloo]

The guide has stab recommendations for the 60He. I have the Wooting two HE - Full-size. Does that mean i just need anything that fits full size keyboards?

[robust siren]

debtson

[hybrid condor]

my wooting v2 just arrived lol. am I the first non-sponsored person to get one?

idk

[fluid ravine]

Hai

[hybrid condor]

either way im happy

[robust siren]

people had them since december

[fluid ravine]

Weh?

Yh

I got mine during Dec as well

[hybrid condor]

dang rly? I thought they werent releasing til march and then got their release date pushed to january lol. guess im wrong

[chrome igloo]

I was not sponsored. I painfully chose and returned half a dozen keyboards and switches to amazon before finally settling on preordering the 2 he

[fluid ravine]

Founders pre order during founder campaign, once Nov ended. They started shipping out in dec

[hybrid condor]

I see

[robust siren]

plastic cases were originally going to be delivered in march but got pushed to april
the aluminum cases + module were starting deliveries on dec 8th earliest

[fluid ravine]

I ordered the day after founders but I didn't order my stuff as a pre built. I ordered everything separately in order to get it during dec

[hybrid condor]

ohhh. thast makes sense actually, thats why I saw the release date being later probably. I am tweaking hehe

[hybrid condor]

I also got everything seperate

holy60 case

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine i wonder if bakka fits in holy60 with rgb pcb

Holeee sheeet this beeech sounds bright af

Sorry

Geon stem spacers

[sullen kiln]

it still does it

[fluid ravine]

Really?

[sullen kiln]

I have those already 👶

ya I bought em just for that reason

[fluid ravine]

Hows the keycap tolerance

[sullen kiln]

tried other keycaps and switches

[fluid ravine]

Like when u remove the keycap is there any resistance?

Or is it loose

[sullen kiln]

I'll try and see

it's pretty snug I gotta pull on it but not too much

[fluid ravine]

Hmm

[fluid ravine]

What caps and switches?

Possibly a warp space bar as well

[sullen kiln]

this sound drives me crazy too, barely touching the space bar

[sullen kiln]

I tried owlti and I'm on deep flux right now

The only switches that it doesn't make that sound on are the astroaims

[fluid ravine]

Check if your keycap is warped

[sullen kiln]

looks okay to me, I just swapped it with another black one and it seems a little better. And what's a good thing to do for hollowness sounding for the space bar , Like is there specific kits to buy and stuff to put in the little blank spaces in the bottom

pulling out the switches is a pain in the ass 😭

[fluid ravine]

Space bar foam

[sullen kiln]

every time I try to pull out the keycaps it just takes off the plastic housing over the led

I mean switches*

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine rakka will not work in hoyl60 if i have the bottom plate on

[fluid ravine]

Interesting

Led?

[robust siren]

yeah

[fluid ravine]

I see

if take the led pcb off it works

i can even add foam

[honest flume]

Okay so now installed the switches and now it won’t register

[deep swift]

Has anyone bought from Keybay Tech? Saw they have the Pink Lotus and wanna get some

[robust siren]

i bought a keyboard from them but he didnt really seem like he knew what he was selling
but since its just switches youre getting it should be fine though i think theres a premium on it since hes a reseller

[deep swift]

Appreciate it

[honest flume]

Where is the auto calibration thing for wooting?

i just instaslled owlabti he switches and want toe st em

[robust siren]

it auto calibrates when you plug it in

[honest flume]

oh

so im good then?

i just unplugged and replugged the keyboard to be safe

to test em* lol i prob should lower the actuation points ngl

[rough drift]

may I ask what are these keycaps

[pearl cairn]

Hello guys im new to this “keyboard modding” thing, im planning to buy wooting 60he v2 white edition is there anything is best to do after it arrives to make it better or its fine as it is?

[polar girder]

Get hype.

[fluid ravine]

GMK Dualshot

[polar girder]

(No mods necessary)

[fluid ravine]

Wooting 60HE v2 is loaded with mods as is so you dont gotta do anything really

[tropic urchin]

It depends on your tastes and how you want to change it once it arrives. I wouldn’t go out of your way until it arrives imo

You could like it perfectly as is and the v2 was made to be a better stock experience as well

[pearl cairn]

Ye and 1 more thing. Should i buy keycaps for ex from temu, ali express or there is some site where i buy them from?

[lyric nimbus]

keyboard modding is about your preferences

[fluid ravine]

[lyric nimbus]

[pearl cairn]

Does that do shippings all around the world? And how much does it cost, how can i see how much shipment is going to cost to my country. thank u so much 🩷

[lyric nimbus]

that's a list of vendors

it's a list of shops rather than being a shop itself

[fluid ravine]

these are vendors aroun your region bsaically

yeah

[fluid ravine]

there's filters to which region you're located at, what you're looking for, etc

[tropic urchin]

@fluid ravine it’s looking like a mid to end week Bella build 🥀

[fluid ravine]

oh hell no

:(

[polar girder]

And then add to cart to see final filing costs

[fluid ravine]

imagine my cf plate comes before you get your vella

[lyric nimbus]

This was my dog trying to find her frisbee today

[lyric nimbus]

[pearl cairn]

So i find basically any vendor under eu region and then it get shipped to my post and then it come to my adress?

[fluid ravine]

yes

[pearl cairn]

Sorry for being annoying

[fluid ravine]

no you're good

[lyric nimbus]

nah

[pearl cairn]

Tnx guys 💪💚

[fluid ravine]

i mean this place is where you ask questions and discuss about keyboard modding after all

np

[tropic urchin]

Not allowed, it’s almost shitpost Tuesday

[lyric nimbus]

basic rundown of keycaps

• abs is more smooth/softer
• pbt is harder and more rough
• the thickness of the keycaps can change the sound profile

the material also affects the sound profile too

[fluid ravine]

harder and rough

[lyric nimbus]

idk the difference in sound profile from abs and pbt exactly though

[fluid ravine]

lul you can say more textured as well

[lyric nimbus]

yeah sure

[fluid ravine]

ABS is more higher pitched basically

[lyric nimbus]

and avoid keycaps that have intricate images like these

these will NOT LOOK GOOD IN PERSON

[pearl cairn]

yeye okay

[lyric nimbus]

yeah i stole from glarses video

theres also some different keycap profiles

[fluid ravine]

most common is cherry

[little glen]

it already looks shit on the first picture 😭

[fluid ravine]

some to most stock boards come with OEM

[fluid ravine]

😂

[lyric nimbus]

there's also some more exotic materials that keycaps can be made out of besides abs/pbt too but unless if u know that you specifically want them and understand what properties that they will come with

i would avoid them

[fluid ravine]

ill prob try fr4 right before i get my cf plate

3/4 benom plates acquired

i wonder what copper is like

[lyric nimbus]

would a gold plate thock or clack...

[fluid ravine]

cronch

@robust siren oh shyt

divinikey restocked

[thorn zealot]

u said that last week i swear 🥀

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

[cloud crane]

It depends, abs can be rough and pbt can be smooth, up to the manufacturer

[lyric nimbus]

but isnt it usually like that though

[cloud crane]

Nah, better to compare between manufacturers

[robust siren]

do it

[fluid ravine]

[cyan lark]

Heavier than your mom

[lyric nimbus]

lemme see how heavy they would be LOL

[fluid ravine]

yeah i dont got any

[lyric nimbus]

ok

if i were to make my 2he case out of tungsten

it would weigh 32 FUCKING POUNDS

literally mjolnir

[cyan lark]

And you'd be swole

[cloud crane]

🗣️ 🔥

[lyric nimbus]

and it'd probably cost like 10 grand to machine

hell is it even machineable

[fluid ravine]

yeah that's shattering my arm right there

[cyan lark]

Again?

[tropic urchin]

Yeah the shop app lied to me and then we got snow galore

[lyric nimbus]

only the worthy will be able to wield my keyboard

[thorn zealot]

sounds like usps to me

[cloud crane]

Yes but too much work

[cyan lark]

We got 1.5' of snow

[uneven cradle]

Get you that wombat

[cyan lark]

Knobs

[lyric nimbus]

how many keys are on the 2he again

[uneven cradle]

Brass edition was gonna be 27kg for that one

[cloud crane]

Bro is living the dream 🔥

[lyric nimbus]

ok about 100

[cyan lark]

104 I assume

[lyric nimbus]

104

sure

guess whos buying 104 wooting knobs

[cyan lark]

You're not gonna

[lyric nimbus]

not me yeah that's gonna cost like 5k

[cyan lark]

If they don't at least do a promo video of an all knob build they are fucking up big time

[lyric nimbus]

i genuinely want to see this now

when they add the wooting knob

surely it won't be THAT hard

[cyan lark]

I will be

Knobs

Almost can't believe we didn't lose power today

[pearl cairn]

Why are there keycaps without win button? And how can i know is it suitable with 60he?

Not these ones but i took those for ex

[lyric nimbus]

some keyboards are WKL (windowkeyless)

idk why exactly but those keyboards exist

oftentimes the keycap manufacturerers will specify what keycaps you will get

like this

unless if u got split keyboard im pretty sure most keycap sets will fit the 60he v2 though

[robust siren]

smh

[cloud crane]

Homage to OTD "Kustoms" and they look cool

[uneven cradle]

Pretty rare for a keycap set not to come with both, like all the sets you linked have a normal 6.25u spacebar and modifiers in the box for the base set

[pearl cairn]

Every one site on alexotos.com dont have keycaps for kb with win why tf???

[cloud crane]

??? They do

[pearl cairn]

Ye…

They dont.

[cloud crane]

... Link an example

[pearl cairn]

Sec

[cloud crane]

Super >>> Win logo 🤮

[pearl cairn]

https://salvun.com/collections/keycaps-1

dk why tf

[cloud crane]

Plus its still gets detected as windows key in the end

[lyric nimbus]

oh yeah they come with them

[pearl cairn]

They do?

[lyric nimbus]

yurr

[uneven cradle]

You need to look at the picture of the full kitting like I linked earlier

[lyric nimbus]

they're just labeled code/super here

[cloud crane]

[pearl cairn]

Ohh mb okay

Don't want microslop on my keys

[cyan lark]

Windows is the worst of the OSs, no need to emblazon it on your keyboard

[tulip rapids]

[tulip rapids]

do you use linux?

[cyan lark]

Every day

[tulip rapids]

[cyan lark]

I’m not a distro nerd, usually Ubuntu or Debian

[tropic urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/bart-simpson-springfield-elementary-wrecking-ball-gif-21813724

[cloud crane]

Arch linux as daily

[cyan lark]

I have thought about setting it back up for gaming again using maybe Fedora

[cloud crane]

Been smooth

[cyan lark]

Literally the only reason I keep the windows install is gaming

And dual boot can be unpleasant

[cloud crane]

Dual boot is ok if you have seperate drives

If only one drive don't bother

[cyan lark]

Sure but then you gotta hit bios to switch right

[tropic urchin]

The day Linux works well with AC will be a glorious day
