[glacial wind]

they track that sort of thing. It’s really not worth losing access to aliexpress forever over some switches

[humble surge]

Not sure what you calculated but that is not it. I'll help when i get home.

[young viper]

Yeah even in the us, originally my purchase was 26 dollars and then tax/shipping/tarrifs ended up being an extra 17 dollars

[tropic urchin]

I think the case foam they included is a little too thick as it doesnt sit perfectly flat (very slightly raised) so it exposes underneath the spacebar slightly, but it sounds the best and also helps mask the screw issue ive had so far so maybe I just gotta deal with it 🥀

[amber dagger]

anyone here using spacebar foam?

[tulip rapids]

shhh dont say it out of the blue

those people meet on friday after 2am

[paper bison]

See if you can get one second hand in the EU

[opal bolt]

just finished the build

doesn't sound too bad to me

[paper bison]

Sounds exactly like mine, what stabs? backplate?

[opal bolt]

I got holy60 diffuser if that's what u mean by backplate yeah

stabs are stock wooting

didn't go out of my way to change them

using fr4 plate and 2mm foam in case

[regal patio]

Maybe he has a VPN or something

[glacial wind]

It gets traced unless he’s using multiple shipping locations etc

we have people in here who have been permabanned from aliexpress

[tulip rapids]

[robust siren]

@cloud crane older recording

[opal bolt]

interesting

I've used a lot of alts and nothing has happened

usually if you take a long time between orders nothing would happen or then keep buying on one acc for a while

before changing

[glacial wind]

You usually get away with it a bit but it’s tracked and if you do it enough you just get the permanent ban

[opal bolt]

I'll keep in mind

I usually did it for orders under 10€ to get free shipping and 5 off

so I basically paid nothing

[glacial wind]

That’s what a lot here did to get cheap switches basically

And some got away with it and some got perm banned

[opal bolt]

getting banned on ali

sounds like a nightmare though

😭

ty for the heads up

[regal patio]

Cant you generate a fake email?

[paper bison]

That's not the issue, if 30 fresh accounts join the referral system and order stuff to the same address, theyre gonna ban anyone trying to ship to that address or via payment method or whatever they do

[regal patio]

Ye you have a point

Ali is probably checking those

[safe thistle]

i mean i can try maybe yeah

[uneven cradle]

Maxgaming should have some options

[safe thistle]

if shipping is included in the price then yeah i think its the best option tysm :)

yeah nvm..

shipping isnt included

[rare light]

Does someone know how long it usually takes till my gt 80 will get prepared? Because it says pre order (i already bought it) but everything eöse arrived expect my stableizers and case

[silent wadi]

depends on shipping option

[final fulcrum]

what kb is that?

[silent wadi]

something with kois

[final fulcrum]

alr nvm then

[robust siren]

my rakka60 atlas

[humble surge]

@fallen pecan appreciate the link earlier today btw, placed both orders.

[young viper]

Wtf am I looking at lol

[humble surge]

Latenpows exactly, thanks for the reminder

[lethal iron]

$8.79 is a steal for gold wtf

[marsh saffron]

Inb4 per switch

[lethal iron]

oh. right.

[marsh saffron]

Thats probably like per 10 or some shit, maybe per 20?

[lethal iron]

$600+ for a full 60he

[marsh saffron]

[paper bison]

i bought kois bc i keep changing switch in my v2, blame Trips for showing me them

[young viper]

LETS GOOOO

[lethal iron]

how do they sound though

[marsh saffron]

Idk

I stopped caring about switches after I got ti he 🤷

[young viper]

Did tirps get her kois yet?

[paper bison]

i dont think so

[young viper]

I ordered them also

They're on the plane rn lol

[paper bison]

I just like new switches, I keep bouncing between DCF, UFO, Owlabs and Raptors

although I mostly use DCF

figured i'd try something new

[young viper]

I got the normal kois as well and I love them so far

[robust siren]

koi koi koi

[tardy bane]

where can i buy a modified wooting in europe? or i have to do it myself

[sly palm]

might take a look at the 80HE tenz

[long agate]

holy shit taking out switches on the 60he v2 is something

i’m removing my lekker45 v2 switches to test out whether the module works

but these are so fkn firm

[tardy bane]

Whats the difference between the normal 80he and the tenz 80he?

[tulip rapids]

dcf is a good upgrade

but if you want to ride them owlabs for a bit you can

[marsh saffron]

Ima ride them out for the next year at minimum

Dont need to spend any more money on keyboard

[tulip rapids]

very true

this chat is how to spend more money on things you dont need

[marsh saffron]

Got far more expensive endeavors to spend moneh on now

[tulip rapids]

havent seen snow like that since i was a kid

[marsh saffron]

Oh nah I just moved onto spending even more on something way better

[marsh saffron]

I seen snow a few years ago that makes this look small😭

Forget what town it was, somewhere near banff

They had like 10ft on either side of the roads throughout the entire town

[humble surge]

@young viper they are 40 CNY per 5, so 85 pieces is in the exact range of UFOs and Novas

[young viper]

The gold? God damn

Yeah I'd need to hear a sound test before I even committed on something like that

[humble surge]

i was gonna get samples, but already spent monthly budget at this stage

next month

[young viper]

Lmaooo same here

[humble surge]

they hit Ali before CNY started, so it's in plans for a month now

and like 5 other switches XDDD

[young viper]

Like next paycheck is tomorrow... But I already spent pretty much all of last paycheck on college stuff and keyboard

[young viper]

Lmaooo

[humble surge]

same tbh, even some from savings

i have like 150$ left for a month of food lmao

tbh perfectly budgeted, not getting fat here

also no case and UFO phase 2 either, it was gonna be march

[young viper]

What was phase 2? The grey ones?

[humble surge]

🙂‍↕️ Silver Mist

and maybe pink, if they stocked it by the time

still not stocked, so all good

How are the KOIs btw? maining it now?

[robust siren]

#1 duhuks hater in past fyi

[humble surge]

idk where that emote/gif is from, but that last one is my favorite

so goddamn silly

[robust siren]

[humble surge]

first time i saw it i cried in laughter

[robust siren]

tom lizard hoppers

[humble surge]

idk it

[robust siren]

i think its a new movie

[humble surge]

just funny the way he is looking and patting you in the back xD

[robust siren]

hes tapping on a phone

[humble surge]

see even more funny, in the emote version you can't see, but the motion resembles

[robust siren]

https://tenor.com/view/lizard-lizard-lizard-lizard-lizard-lizard-gif-10190631004156312327

[humble surge]

yep xD

https://7tv.app/emotes/01K1KQ1X1M8K7XME2MZVDRMKRS i saw it in this format lol

[young viper]

Yur

[humble surge]

berry gud

[marsh knoll]

@humble surge how much for 85 white ufos from superbuy to eu?

[trail bane]

Gn

[fluid ravine]

lmao

[humble surge]

723,6 CNY (~104,91 USD) for the 85 switches itself
And roughly 13-15$ to ship to EU

[fluid ravine]

i'd so remake the duhuk core right now

like this shi might slap who knows

spring swapped kois are slapping right now i can't lie

[humble surge]

(although the actual TaoBao price is lower, i just can't find out without direct access, and you need to ask the shopping agent to make use of the discounts and source it at the lowest possible price, ahead of time)

[fluid ravine]

small difference between my frakens but im enjoying that difference

[marsh knoll]

Same situation as with artisan pads, no? I will pay VAT for this 100%

[humble surge]

no

[marsh knoll]

How

[humble surge]

Artisan sends with DHL Express

which is taxxed 100% of the time everywhere

here you can choose the delivery line that the package is being sent on

[marsh knoll]

But dhl handling customs is only €10

[humble surge]

many includes a customs clearance

[marsh knoll]

I paid €40 month ago for 2 artisans

[humble surge]

thats normal, also DHL and DHL Express are two very different branches

[marsh knoll]

As i understand if they send it some tax free line then it a coin toss whether i will pay VAT

[humble surge]

I have never had to, considering it's a tax free line where theres a customs clearance fee being paid upfront, although minimal

[marsh knoll]

Anyway I paid around 125 for my ufos from ali

30 mins ago

And its brutal how gravastar.de stock disappeared tonight

[young viper]

@fluid ravine I just learned the fuckin raptors have a pa12 top housing lmaooo

[robust siren]

raptors sound so dead

wait

what about ags radiants

thank you

oo

its also pa12

wait

ags radiant top housing on kois?

holup

[cloud crane]

Nah HMX 1st gen molds are meh

[robust siren]

let me cook

[cloud crane]

Wait for their newer gen molds

[robust siren]

i already have ags radiants in hand

[cloud crane]

Lol you can try

[young viper]

Do it gore

[robust siren]

god this feels cursed

[young viper]

My biggest worry with the rgbs is that either they'll sound deep af, or dead af lol

[robust siren]

uhhhh

so the radiant stem doesnt fit in koi top housing

[humble surge]

bets on dead af

[robust siren]

but koi stem fits in ags top housing

this is cursed

okay

i take it back

the ags top housing doesnt fit on kois

[humble surge]

https://klipy.com/gifs/cats-what-4

[fluid ravine]

Well that's just dumb

[cloud crane]

Expected... Different mold

[robust siren]

what other switches can i try....

i got titons

and 2 ur ice ultras

lets see

BRO

i poured the ags radiants onto my table

and i find 3 more broken legs

😭

[fluid ravine]

[robust siren]

all i did was pour em out 😭

@cloud crane @fluid ravine i present: koitons and iced kois

[cloud crane]

LMAO

Peak

[fluid ravine]

Holeh

[robust siren]

they all clicked together flawlessly

[cloud crane]

Gotta give feedback to Aiglatson studio about this issue ig...

[cloud crane]

Looks like they share the same mold lol

[robust siren]

whats the best place to put the switches

to compare

[cloud crane]

Middle row?, idk ask thockson lol

[robust siren]

rtyu?

@fluid ravine

1: stock kois
2: koi with titon top housing
3: titon with koi top housing
4: koi with ice ultra top housing
5: ice ultra with koi top housing

@cloud crane

[cloud crane]

I like 1 and 4 lol

[robust siren]

i think the issue with titon is either stem or bottom

[robust siren]

i unfortunately do not have any more ice ultras at my disposal

[cloud crane]

Well difference not big enough to justify doing frankens anyways

[robust siren]

radiants just want to be special and not get an invite

[cloud crane]

Lolol HMX has different mold from grain gold

[robust siren]

at least make the legs stronger so they dont break off in a 2cm drop

[humble surge]

2 and 4 are great

[cloud crane]

We need John HMX here fr

[robust siren]

skipped leg day

[cloud crane]

😛

[ionic breach]

ones my fav

[robust siren]

og kois

[sly palm]

just don't throw them

[robust siren]

i poured it out of my switch container

[ionic breach]

least friction

[robust siren]

throwing them will blow it up

[sly palm]

impact grenades?

[robust siren]

[opal bolt]

opinions

[robust siren]

get a deskmat/keebmat
or have your phone on something soft that isolates it from the table

the desk pounding is distracting

[opal bolt]

I have a keebmat under it yes

probably the mic arm that's the issue actually

[fluid ravine]

whats your audio setup?

[fallen pecan]

new tnt x offstudio switches: https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=1027165962144, orange is a cheaper flux, blue is silent, blue with white stem is +10gf heavier

[opal bolt]

elgato lp arm

rode podmic usb

[robust siren]

i use a mic arm but it isnt as severe

[fluid ravine]

waht mic arm?

[opal bolt]

I said it above

[fluid ravine]

ah

missed it

i have the same setup but non usb podmic

got the white xlr

[robust siren]

it looks similar enough to the one you get with fifine

(the one im using)

[opal bolt]

probably just fucked my arm on the desk a few times

the typing was difficult

w the mic there

I could redo it sometime

[robust siren]

how do you position the mic

[fluid ravine]

i set my boom arm like in a flat angle along side my mic and have it right above the keyboard

[humble surge]

interesting, i guess more to add to my order list.
First i thought that was the magma, but only the colors are similar.

[opal bolt]

that's tough

I love the podmic ngl

actually such a good mic

[fluid ravine]

you use an interface or the usb?

[opal bolt]

I'm still using usb, I'm getting all the quality for it that I need rn

I don't see a point in upgrading to interface

without recording vocals

[opal bolt]

it's like over my keyboard, facing down to catch the sound a little more accurately

[opal bolt]

perhaps it's too close

that's likely

[humble surge]

excellent price btw, only 10.4k CNY per 10pcs :)

[opal bolt]

NVM

kinda like his

[fluid ravine]

i record all of my sound tests exactly like this

arm and mic positioning

[opal bolt]

looked similar enough to mine, I just need to angle it a little better

downwards

[fluid ravine]

gain, all similiar, prob different by 1 db cus im eye balling it

[robust siren]

[fluid ravine]

lol

[opal bolt]

peak

[robust siren]

i kinda record like this

[opal bolt]

the am8 sounds nice but the build quality

is genuinely so bad

[robust siren]

i need to get a longer usb cable or reroute the wire

[opal bolt]

time for an upgrade

[fluid ravine]

its giving slight misdirection

[robust siren]

with where my mic arm is, i cant get it directly over the keyboard pointing straight down

[fluid ravine]

oof

[robust siren]

i couldddd reposition it

but that requires me cutting zip ties and i dont feel like doing allat

[robust siren]

tbh its fine for a $50 mic

[robust siren]

theres not really much to expect, id rather it be more focused for audio quality than material

[opal bolt]

@fluid ravine

[opal bolt]

That's fair enough honestly

The handling sounds just sound so bad

I hope u don't move it much

😭

[fluid ravine]

i'd remove the WS14

i have one as well but i dont use it ever for sound tests

and also make sure your dsp is off as well as eq

[robust siren]

i havent heard anyone complain about it the 2 times i do move it during vcs
the mic arm makes it convient to just swing it away

[fluid ravine]

and would keep the gain level measure to where you can't hear desk vibration

this is for your case with the usb setup

[opal bolt]

ohhh fair enough

I could do that yea

[robust siren]

me using microsofts sound recorder:

[opal bolt]

Came stock with the usb version so I've just had it on

[fluid ravine]

same same

[fluid ravine]

i do too

[robust siren]

just mic plugged into pc with usb

[opal bolt]

I'll look into it

fair

[fluid ravine]

yeah i only have gain level setup, boom arm and mic level set, and made sure my eq's were off

[fluid ravine]

retake is the one i just took now and the r2 is the day i got the kois

[robust siren]

i keep forgetting theres a gain knob on the mic because i never adjust it and its on the underside

[fluid ravine]

keeping recordings as consistent as possible while being loud enough

[fluid ravine]

lmao

[robust siren]

never touching it = consistency

[fluid ravine]

lmao i have to adjust my gain all of the time between vc and sound tests

[robust siren]

[fluid ravine]

[robust siren]

i just tell people to turn my volume up

[fluid ravine]

lmao

i do it for the sake of my room not being treated

[opal bolt]

I feel like

there's still some

pretty audible

[robust siren]

your dcf is weirdly high pitched at top out but then again its the holy case...

[opal bolt]

it's just holy60 with the diffuser and 2mm foam

[robust siren]

a lot better compared to the previous one

is it tray mounted?

or did you keep the friction mount

[opal bolt]

friction fit

tray is worse if I understood correctly no?

[robust siren]

i dont remember my dcf sounding like this in a holy

[robust siren]

yeah

[fluid ravine]

well its much better now

can say that much

[robust siren]

wait did i even do dcf in holy

[fluid ravine]

i think its the holy60 doing that tbh

where sound leaks out

[opal bolt]

yeah it's most likely just the case itself

[fluid ravine]

cus i can hear the switch separation just fine so that mean the recording is good

[robust siren]

i only did kois and radiants in the holy

[fluid ravine]

its just the case

[opal bolt]

I love the case tho

I'd never downgrade it for just the sound

ngl

[fluid ravine]

downgrade

[opal bolt]

very subjective

[fluid ravine]

to which their own

[opal bolt]

indeed

tofu60 was nice but

it sounds very thin asw

[robust siren]

hmm

oh this was before i fixed spacebar

[fluid ravine]

yeah very holy like indeed

[fluid ravine]

can't be helped

got a lil xlr butt plug

[opal bolt]

😭 😭 😭

[robust siren]

gt-60 bestest case

i really need to redo this recording

[opal bolt]

sounds pretty close to mine

except for that space

[robust siren]

i guess i could redo holy case recording

takes at most 2 seconds to swap cases

this should be my dcf

[cloud crane]

Even the doodoo ahhh float65 sounds better than the holy60

[robust siren]

i lied wtf is that

also the hum in the background

is that actually how my dcf sound from a recording?

oh wait i have these with dedicated plates (second is cf)

the hum is killing it

average lianli aio

[opal bolt]

what's going on in the bg 😭

[robust siren]

^

ive changed fan curves and the rest since

[opal bolt]

ohhh yeah lmao

[opal bolt]

what case

were you using

with the fr4 plate config

[robust siren]

for the keyboard? KBDfans GT-60

it was on the 60he+

foam alphas silicone surrounding

[opal bolt]

impressive how big of a difference the case makes in sound as well

sounds really like defined in a way

idk

[robust siren]

i think there was 3 layer tape mod

[cloud crane]

I wanna cop derivative r2 soo baddd 😛

[robust siren]

do it

no bawls

[cloud crane]

[robust siren]

[cloud crane]

No monehhhhh

I'm waiting for my +84 TKL too 😛

[broken notch]

Never

[cloud crane]

[humble surge]

zoomer ha!

[queen kite]

do typeplus stabs needs lube on the wires or just some on the plastic parts

[robust siren]

they need lube on the wires and plastic parts like any other stabilizer

[queen kite]

alright i was just wondering because theres a geon video and he doesnt lube the wire in it

[young viper]

@robust siren I need you to go pickup my cf plate lmao

So coin has a eye that can see through walls and shit now

[young viper]

Dude im on gore 3

You're died a few times

[robust siren]

[young viper]

Coin went crazy for the first one, and I think you get malaria or some weird disease the second time

[sly palm]

He made me hungry and didn't share food with me. It's his own fault

[young viper]

I may buy one of the dlc's tomorrow cause I'm paid lol

[young viper]

Yep, exactly what happened word for word

[young viper]

Maybe I'll add the cloning mod also to it

[robust siren]

hey its not just me, its @fluid ravine too

[sly palm]

He next

I need to get some pwetty switches soon

[robust siren]

koi koi koi koi koi

[sly palm]

Tho the tikkens are actually kinda not bad

[cloud crane]

Koi rgbbbbbbbb

[sly palm]

They definitely better than lekkers v2

[cloud crane]

Or get XVX EC/HE switches 😛 😛 😛

[sly palm]

Imma kinda thinking about it but super buy scares me

[cloud crane]

Superbuy is easy if you're literate

[robust siren]

And @fluid ravine is really son

[robust siren]

[sly palm]

Tbf, that's a really good explanation
Now tell it to a goldfish and see if it understands it

Nah honestly it won't be that hard, but me broke and stupid

[robust siren]

he understands it but his card got declined at step 2

Topruhhhhhh 😛 😛 😛

[young viper]

I'm starting to think they don't exist

[robust siren]

its because theyre FAKE

fake kois

[young viper]

Open bottom ahhh

[young viper]

THEYRE KOI SUPREME

I will soon have all the kois

[cloud crane]

For a reason, coz they're topruhhhh

😛

[robust siren]

clear kois ❌
glass shrimp ☑️

[cloud crane]

If you tried topre keyboards you'd understand 😛

[sly palm]

Mind explaining it to a tired and stupid goldfish?
Like I prefer closed bottoms

[sly palm]

This funny

[silent wadi]

i wanna try topre

i heard they feel nice

[cloud crane]

TL;DR electrocapacitative switches were made to have superior tactility feel and quiet sound

My very biased opinion 😛

[young viper]

Shrimp superiority

I'm gonna get the rgbs and they're gonna be super dead feeling aren't they lol

Either they're gonna be dead or deep, there's absolutely no in-between

[sly palm]

Ohh, well yea, the lekkers were more quiet than the tikkens iirc

[silent wadi]

how much is a decent topre anyways

[cloud crane]

Like metakeebs or dynacap? Those are quite the sum

Metakeebs cheaper tho

[sly palm]

I have to test out some switches after my wallet gets revived after ordering 2 wootings

[silent wadi]

il check them out

if im intrested enough i might pick one up

[cloud crane]

🗣️ 🔥

https://youtu.be/OdHHt99VZLc
😛

[fallen pecan]

just get a used one from mercari.jp, got 2 in decent condition for about $100 each

[silent wadi]

it actually sounds quite nice

[young viper]

Hmmm what's this

Could this possibly be a blue koi??

[silent wadi]

thats what it looks like to me

[cloud crane]

Probably grain gold mold but blue

[young viper]

Lemme find the koi's for contrast

[cloud crane]

Ah yes the typical PC POM Nylon combo

[silent wadi]

the only topre keyboard ive heard about os like something

i forgot the name

like hbcb or something

[cloud crane]

HHKB?

[fallen pecan]

cheap cheap

[silent wadi]

yesss

[silent wadi]

r these good?

[fallen pecan]

fun to try, not that good for gaming

i was in a topre kick few years back

[silent wadi]

i like typing and i wasnt planning on switching from 80 he anyways

idk seems cool to try

[fallen pecan]

they sound really nice tho, thick pbt keycaps

[silent wadi]

they sound like if silent keyboard were really good

best office keyboard prolly

[fallen pecan]

ye really nice typing board

[cloud crane]

You can go the XVX EC/HE route, 70-80% of the topre feel but can put in HE boards

Or you get second hand HHKB like jabber said

Metakeebs maybe

[silent wadi]

id probably do something like this

[cloud crane]

Zamnnn

https://youtu.be/IgWGATqmchk
Very sexy

[silent wadi]

waow

[young viper]

Low key I need to stop spending money on my wooting and set money aside for when the Styx releases ngl

[silent wadi]

styx?

[fallen pecan]

i'm seeing a few grimier ones but at a good price

[silent wadi]

how are you finding these

so cheap

[fallen pecan]

this is bluetooth too so quite a bit more exp when new

[silent wadi]

i could pick one up right now

[fallen pecan]

mercari.jp

[silent wadi]

thats like what 50 bucks

[fallen pecan]

use buyee as a forwarder, might save a few bucks on shipping

[silent wadi]

i might lowk get one of these for my mom

[young viper]

Bottom weight has moons engraved into it so like I feel like I need to get it lol

[cloud crane]

How much are topre ursa caps again

[cloud crane]

HHKB Pro 2 mogs

[sly palm]

Me too, I hate it how it doesn't align with the space bar and makes more useless space under space

[young viper]

I kinda want a Alu one since I've never messed with Alu plates ngl

[cloud crane]

Oh then get alu tried and true

[fallen pecan]

hhkb lite is just regular rubber dome, not EC

[silent wadi]

[silent wadi]

i can clean it up

[cloud crane]

Pretty good deal 👀

[silent wadi]

yeah tht one is rly nice

but its like 2 orders of kois

[thorn zealot]

time to cop

[sly palm]

Has anyone here actually designed and manufactured their own PCB?

[young viper]

I'm gonna have ai make one called the tooting

[fallen pecan]

this looks like an auction tho, go for fixed priced listing

[robust siren]

my rakka is about as close as you can get to that with zero knowledge of pcb manufacturing

[silent wadi]

dudeeee

[cloud crane]

My keyboard is in production 😛

[sly palm]

Yea I was just curious if someone made their complete own PCB

[sly palm]

Ayy let's go

[fallen pecan]

that's in jp layout

[sly palm]

This is a smol space bar

[cloud crane]

Ask in rukia or hypekeyboards server 😛

[silent wadi]

yeah but cheap

[fallen pecan]

if you're fine with jp then not an issue

[silent wadi]

a bit more

but looks nice

[sly palm]

Well fair, imma just tired and if I am tired I tend to ask stupid questions and make stupid shit

[cloud crane]

Lolol

[fallen pecan]

[sly palm]

Yea with the UWU, I know that one

[silent wadi]

[robust siren]

[sly palm]

Ohh this a different one?

[robust siren]

[sly palm]

I should go to sleep

[silent wadi]

[sly palm]

I am yapping nonsense

[silent wadi]

[fallen pecan]

they had the madlight 60, this is just an upgrade of sorts

Non quattro

[broken notch]

What an awful awful render

[candid bramble]

sliver

[paper bison]

good enough that you would be wasting your time to hand lube them all for hours

[candid bramble]

i am thinking throwing a set of gmk alert on it

just havent thought what colour alert on it

[dusky geyser]

kk ty

[cloud crane]

Violet Alert 🗣️ 🔥

[candid bramble]

i will see if i can get a set lmao

i kinda want the prussian alert to pass IC

it will look so clean on sliver

[cloud crane]

Oooh that's kinda peak too

[candid bramble]

still in IC :c

[cloud crane]

Ye...

All I need is SWG Euler coz I wasn't in the hobby 3 years ago when GMK Euler came out lolllll

[candid bramble]

well there is a clone on taobao

of the prussian alert

but i dont know if i want to get it

[cloud crane]

Well if its just alert row maybe ok to get

[candid bramble]

since the keycap itself look very fire

kinda want to buy the real set instead

[cloud crane]

Trueeee

[candid bramble]

fuck it

i am getting a set and see how it is

[cloud crane]

Hope its properly colour matched loll

[candid bramble]

i might just end up getting like 2 set of the gmk when it pass IC

idk why they are printing korean sub LMAO

yea imma get a set and see how it is

[cloud crane]

🗣️ 🔥 🔥 🔥

[candid bramble]

[cloud crane]

Though my aifei set looks fine kek

[candid bramble]

[cloud crane]

日当午?

[stoic ocean]

I was going to tell you that, actually, but I had a busy day

[fallen pecan]

ye

[stoic ocean]

@cloud crane By the way, did you buy the Gehirn yourself?

[cloud crane]

No 😔

Got +84 TKL

Coz I need TKL

[stoic ocean]

that's good too 🔥

[cloud crane]

Ye 🔥

[stoic ocean]

I took the aged and the Mechameleon then

[candid bramble]

yea

[stoic ocean]

too hyped

[candid bramble]

the review pic looks clean

so i hope it comes out clean as well

[stoic ocean]

I'm thinking of getting the Ophanim or the Constance 60 as well.

[cloud crane]

Zamn

[stoic ocean]

Then there's the F1 8X FE; I don't know when it's coming out, but I've been interested in it for a long time.

[cloud crane]

Constance 60 would be peak ngl

[stoic ocean]

The prototype alone is pretty

[cloud crane]

Geon I think said on stream that its still in design phase

[stoic ocean]

Damn 💀

I saw a keyboard on Twitter, it's a TKL with cartoon characters on the back, it looks like the Slots60 style, I forgot its name, but I need a keyboard like that

[fluid ravine]

I HAVE THE DRIP

[fluid ravine]

OOO TIMING

[fluid ravine]

UHHH MESSAGE LINK FOR THE BOWL SWITCH THINGY

[cloud crane]

Keygeek Intro?

[fluid ravine]

THE BLACK ONE I GOTTA GET READY FOR SCHOOL I'M LATE

[fluid ravine]

UHH YH WTV IT IS

[cloud crane]

Oh keygeek nylon

[fluid ravine]

[cloud crane]

Wait

[fluid ravine]

Send me wtv but I meant this

[cloud crane]

That's gateron 4mm nylon w/ pom stem HE

Not yet out

[fluid ravine]

Dafug

Message link to it tho?

[cloud crane]

It's in gateron discord

[fluid ravine]

Oh oka

[cloud crane]

HE switch design contest resulted in this

[mild cargo]

Finally installed my torontokeyboardman kit

And added the superstrike mouse to the setup

[sacred elm]

[little glen]

🐴

went and updated all my wootings

[broken notch]

Good job @glacial wind !

[tropic urchin]

Nice blueberry kois

[glacial wind]

we survived

eriks computer died

i think his computer or cam was overheating during last 1/3 lol

[little glen]

you will hear from my people about the rawhuk slander

[broken notch]

That's so funny

[verbal urchin]

Wooting is now my first modded keyboard ever!! (Tofu60 redux, tape mod with extra foam, durock v3 screw in stabs and incoming gateron jade pro switches)

[glossy pagoda]

Pretty case color

[verbal urchin]

Thanks 🙏

[lyric nimbus]

welcome to the abyss of modding

[urban ingot]

My Purple Tofu Redux should arrive tomorrow. I'm excited for it. My Grey GT-80 should arrive today. I won't get the keycaps for the 80HE for another few days though.

[verbal urchin]

removing every single switch and putting them back on was very fun i swear

[urban ingot]

My UFO should arrive for my 60 v2 in a couple of days too. Then my 60 v2 will be purple everywhere, even where I can't see.

[verbal urchin]

make sure that the cable ports allign lol, i realized they didn't after i assambled everything back together

it was painful

[urban ingot]

I saw that it's adjustable.

[glacial wind]

oh they made those limited time discord rewind decorations redeemable for orbs, that's neat

[verbal urchin]

yep indeed, good luck with it when it arrives

When people say they want that rough PBT sandpaper feeling.

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine relocated my mic to somewhere better

[chilly mural]

Sounds very close to the flick. But lighter (prop due to the distance)

[chilly mural]

Very airy but has more weight compared to the previous.

[robust siren]

i had to turn down the gain on my mic cause you can hear desk reverbs
past mic setup had it in front of the keyboard and not over it

[chilly mural]

I see

Time for you to invest in a mic stand

[robust siren]

i just need shock absorber

fifine doesnt even make one for the am8

[hard hawk]

its the one ttc horse switch for the spacebar

[polar girder]

The redux and Wooting wrist rest fitment is so satisfying. Enjoy!

[urban ingot]

Use a suspension arm for it. That should get rid of vibration pick up.

Or if you like Fifine, get the K688. It has a shock mount built into it

[fluid ravine]

what mic arm you have rn?

[robust siren]

fifine low profile

[fluid ravine]

ohh

what's it made of?

[young viper]

vibranium

[robust siren]

its metal

[fluid ravine]

ah

[robust siren]

but for some odd ass reason

[fluid ravine]

wdym

[robust siren]

the ball joint connecting it is plastic

[fluid ravine]

i see

[robust siren]

so when you move it it just gets turned into plastic dust

[fluid ravine]

elgatos metal

but paint dust instead

lol

its ashy

[robust siren]

real

i found someone who 3d prints one online

[fluid ravine]

of the shock mount?

i remember there was one for the am8

[robust siren]

yeah

[fluid ravine]

and someone made a simple ring around the mic for the k688

[robust siren]

its like 20 bucks

[fluid ravine]

@cloud crane you know any vendor that sells bumpons?

[robust siren]

idk if the orings are included tho

[fluid ravine]

the ones i got from amazon makes my board tall

[robust siren]

and then theres whatever this cursed object is

[tropic urchin]

Also, the new plate foam legit doesn’t do anything to dampen the overall volume but adds some nice deepness to the Bella

We cookin now

[fluid ravine]

naice

got a sound test

?

[tropic urchin]

Not currently but it would be only skibidi iPhone 🥀

[fluid ravine]

oofy

[tropic urchin]

But it sounds pretty close to what I want

[fluid ravine]

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine did you listen to the ones i sent

[fluid ravine]

guess i keep my foam then

[tropic urchin]

The case foam is too thick so it pushes it up a small bit but it manages to counteract the silver accent screw issue I had

[fluid ravine]

uh for a brief moment

i was playing val with some friends

they were too loud

[silent wadi]

guys can anyone suggest a good keycap/switch puller?

[fluid ravine]

@robust siren all you bub^

[robust siren]

wat

[fluid ravine]

or was it varedis

i forgot

[robust siren]

keycap puller the wooting one is fine

[fluid ravine]

the 3 in 1

thing

[fluid ravine]

hekkkkk no

[robust siren]

you could get the tx 5in1 or the gateron 3in1

[robust siren]

the switch part of it is shit

[fluid ravine]

gotchaaa

[silent wadi]

yeah and novas are hard to take out

[fluid ravine]

well the space in the bella is kinda small i can't lie

[silent wadi]

and i dont mind getting one

wym 5 in 1

[robust siren]

tx 5in1

[fluid ravine]

5 functions in 1 puller

[robust siren]

i need to bomb some clankas now

so

[fluid ravine]

this crazy thing

[robust siren]

2 of the uses are... useless

who is measuring pcb thickness and stem thickness

[silent wadi]

thats a little overkill tbh

[fluid ravine]

Switch Puller
Keycap Puller
Switch Opener
PCB thickness Measuring
Stem Length Measuring

for a good $22

[silent wadi]

switch opener is nice

[fluid ravine]

well the gat 3 in 1 is $30

soooo

[robust siren]

get gaterons 3in1

its big boi

[silent wadi]

why are they so expensive

[fluid ravine]

cus 😂

[silent wadi]

i dont need it to be made out of diamonds

[fluid ravine]

the functions speak for itself

plkus they're made out of metal

why wouldnt it be

[fluid ravine]

atleast its not $50

like it COULDve

[silent wadi]

plus i want one i can find on amazon

i got prime and want to take advantage of it

[tropic urchin]

Weee bit, but I’m just gonna pretend it’s an 80HE where I can see everything under my keycaps

[bleak jolt]

my gravastar ufo switches will finally arrive on monday

was faster than expected

Guys, how do I change the actuation point to 0.05mm. its not showing up
I have a 60he v2

installed the new beta update

[silent wadi]

switch selector

idk where it is in the settings

[bleak jolt]

well it doesnt show in the switch selector

I selected the switches I have

[uneven cradle]

its not in the switch selector yet

its in the process of being added though

[bleak jolt]

ok thank you

[fluid ravine]

new sound tests for my woot

gummjy

[bleak jolt]

flux sound the best

[fluid ravine]

Wooting v2 split

Without the pad

[slate fox]

https://wooting.io/product/wooting-lekker-tikken-medium-switch?Size=90+pack

Did they reduce price?

[fluid ravine]

sounds a bit more open
wont be using any of the silicones, dont like how the mids are just gone and it became a snappy board

[fluid ravine]

the 90 pack?

[slate fox]

ye

[fluid ravine]

looks the same to me from what i remeber

[slate fox]

thought it was more before

hmm

any new switches coming from wooting on the horizon?

[fluid ravine]

nah its priced correctly

[slate fox]

ah

[fluid ravine]

i dont see them planning to :^

[slate fox]

hmm

then I might as well use my gift card on those switches

oh delayed till May

[trail bane]

Gn

[cloud crane]

I dunno, I just buy from taobao, just find some lower ones on amazon 💀

[stoic ocean]

there are some interesting things

It's a 65% keyboard; I'll have to see if it's Venom compatible, otherwise I'll make an MX build.

[glacial wind]

0.05? We don’t go below 0.1 because it becomes unusable

Deadzone is already automatically set to lowest depending on the switch you have though (and the switch being an option in the switch selector)

[silent wadi]

i thought it went to 0.05 aswell

[quick finch]

the recent beta means you can do 0.15mm actuation for example

[silent wadi]

its not like it matters all that much tho

[quick finch]

0.1mm is still the minimum

[silent wadi]

theres no way it would even be noticable

[sly palm]

the only thing you will notice are missinputs

[silent wadi]

yep

the wind in your room prolly pressing the button

tx multitool sold out... any other recomendations?

[sly palm]

keycap to heavy

[silent wadi]

i wonder if ceramic keycaps actuate it

[fluid ravine]

they should if the springs can't support it at inital height

[sly palm]

depends on the spring I would assume

@young viper had a feather light space with kois and cerakey iirc

[robust siren]

i use gaterons 3in1

[silent wadi]

30 dollar is steeep

[robust siren]

they should restock constantly so it shouldnt be that long of a wait

[fluid ravine]

where from?

6 off my pb

[silent wadi]

u fast

i havent typed in a while

im prolly rusty

[fluid ravine]

damn where you been

gotta lock in now

[silent wadi]

yesss

[fluid ravine]

lmao

[silent wadi]

my goal is to beat this

[fluid ravine]

shi whats your avg

[silent wadi]

15 seconds is rough

[fluid ravine]

im rusty as hell i can't lie

[silent wadi]

i do burst

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

[stoic ocean]

Baionlenja serv

[silent wadi]

[marsh saffron]

What's your 1 minute

[silent wadi]

i started in like 6th grade

[silent wadi]

uh oh

[marsh saffron]

Around where im at iirc

But my 10s way slower

[fluid ravine]

10 words?

[marsh saffron]

I cant do fast bursts but I can stay consistent

[fluid ravine]

my 10's are slow

[fluid ravine]

yeah same here

my 10 words

[marsh saffron]

My 15s is basically same as my 60s

[fluid ravine]

[silent wadi]

my 15 second is 147

tbh it was a fluke

[marsh saffron]

My pb is 135 on 15s, 60s is like 126

[fluid ravine]

wait how many fingers yall use

[marsh saffron]

All but my pinkies

[silent wadi]

all but pinkies

LOL

[fluid ravine]

i can't be the odd one out getting bullied for my british pinkies for the past 3 years

[marsh saffron]

And right thumb

I dont use that either

[fluid ravine]

THANK GOD

i use my right thumb for sb
i dont use my left thumb

[silent wadi]

i click spacebar with both my thumbs...

[marsh saffron]

I only use left thumb for sb

[silent wadi]

like both at the same time

[fluid ravine]

those that press sb with index...

[silent wadi]

whenever people start typing i see that

my wrist has been hurting lately

hope i dont have something bad

[fluid ravine]

carpal tunnel

[silent wadi]

i used to train typing by doing 10k words a day

[glacial wind]

0.02-0.05 is the accuracy level and how low the deadzone can go so maybe that’s what you saw
