[royal patrol]

i’m not paying $28 for 0.5mm foam that’s ridiculous

oh 3x2mm you changed it

[glossy sandal]

Yeah it’s bit of a luxury

but you could just cut it yourself

[royal patrol]

i’ll probably cut my own thicker foam

[glossy sandal]

Depends if you wanna do it yourself or have a specialty foam cut foam

[royal patrol]

i don’t care about retaining flex

[glossy sandal]

alright cool then

Do you need help with keycaps or switches?

I’ll assume you liked those pbtfans wob set and go with that

[royal patrol]

i used 10mm foam in my gk61 lmao

[glossy sandal]

I know someone who used 20 layers on tape on the back of his pcb, I’ve nearly seen it all

[royal patrol]

it actually dramatically improved the board

[glossy sandal]

Improved is a uhhh

Subjective thing

[royal patrol]

improved it to me

that’s all that matters

[glossy sandal]

Only thing I think it did was null the board’s sound

But again, preference

[royal patrol]

absolutely zero flex and zero resonance

i don’t know if it’s worth me going for the tiger80

that board is all about intentionally making it flex

[untold orchid]

flex is nice though

I love the bouncy feel on the Q1

[glossy sandal]

Flex is nice to type on, though if you want something stiffer I’d suggest looking at the scarlet TKL

Top mount might be what you’re looking for

[royal patrol]

i like a stiff board with light linears

[glossy sandal]

Refers to this

Only b stock scarlet tkls are available btw

I think they’re awesome boards but I can’t give you an accurate estimation on shipping

[royal patrol]

i unironically might prefer the gk87 if i’m going for a stiff dead board

prefer over the tiger80 i mean

[glossy sandal]

[glossy sandal]

I’ll leave you to your devices to decide, idk what you value more

I’ll assume stiff board and no sound

[royal patrol]

stiff board with light linears is the way

[glossy sandal]

[royal patrol]

it feels the most responsive

[glossy sandal]

I don’t mind flexy boards

I do prefer stiff boards but light linears and a tray mount sounds like something I would hate

[royal patrol]

you’d probably hate my old keyboard then

absolutely rock solid stiff gk61 with 35g linears

[glossy sandal]

I had a gk61xs at one point

I don’t mind it

[royal patrol]

i was surprised at how nice it turned out being so cheap

[glossy sandal]

I’ve been spoiled by nicer boards so I don’t see myself buying any cheaper tray mounts any time soon

[pastel drift]

Luck

[royal patrol]

that’s the only custom board i’ve used so i have no reference

[glossy sandal]

maybe a pc66, but that’s because I love the design

[pastel drift]

What about a 75% layout

[glossy sandal]

Wish there was an easily accessible way to try boards

[pastel drift]

Plspls

[glossy sandal]

?

What about 75%

[pastel drift]

I need a keyboard

[glossy sandal]

Buy a Gok 7v

[pastel drift]

What is geek hack?

[glossy sandal]

It’s like Reddit but keyborb

[pastel drift]

O

[glossy sandal]

someone will probably disagree with me but idc

interest checks and group buys happen there

[pastel drift]

400 dollars

Bruh

[glossy sandal]

Oh that’s msrp

lel

[pastel drift]

My budget is like 10 dollars

200 dollars

[glossy sandal]

It resells for like double

[pastel drift]

I think

[glossy sandal]

Honestly

Buy a qk75 and buy everything else in the meantime it ships

[pastel drift]

Bet

[glossy sandal]

That’s about 2 months of buying everything else you need

Which should just be switches and keycaps

[pastel drift]

180

Hot

[glossy sandal]

yeah, that’s why I said save up and buy everything else while you wait for it to be fulfilled

which should be 10-12 weeks (which is lightning fast)

[gloomy patrol]

I’m here to disagree

[pastel drift]

Woah lot of customization

W

[gloomy patrol]

When in doubt and on budget, jwicks and Shenpo

[glossy sandal]

Die

[gloomy patrol]

[glossy sandal]

Astro when did you sleep yesterday

[royal patrol]

real gigachads design and 3d print their own mice too

[gloomy patrol]

3:45 and I still didn’t start my work

I’m not gonna eat lunch today

[glossy sandal]

You bumbling idiot

[royal patrol]

can’t be using a prebuilt mouse

[glossy sandal]

Not like you’re missing much

[royal patrol]

i eat lunch in 30 minutes 👹

[glossy sandal]

I can have breakfast in about an hour or two

[gloomy patrol]

Lunch overrated

[gloomy patrol]

Do you not have school

[glossy sandal]

Yes

I do have school

[royal patrol]

lunch is my breakfast

i wake up at 07:00 but my first meal is lunch at around 11:45

then i eat dinner around 16:45

and another meal at like 22:00

[glossy sandal]

I eat lunch at like 1700

And that’s it

[gloomy patrol]

Lucky

[glossy sandal]

but I eat big lunch and big breakfast so I don’t eat dinner

[pastel drift]

Bro I get to each uncrustable for lunch

Ez

[gloomy patrol]

Nah tf

[glossy sandal]

I wish they made adult lunchables

[glossy sandal]

Big breakfast goes a long way

[pastel drift]

What’s hotswap tri-mode ansi pcb?

[glossy sandal]

Bluetooth, Wired, 2.4ghz

And ansi is American standard layout

just pick it, it’s probably what you’re used to

[pastel drift]

Alr

I didn’t know it was qureless

Wireless

[glossy sandal]

Ansi vs ISO if you’re interested

[untold orchid]

ISO > ANSI

[pastel drift]

What’s fr4 plate?

[untold orchid]

fight me

[glossy sandal]

ANSI > ISO

fight me

[twilit flare]

For real for

That's what it means

[untold orchid]

I wanna see an ANSI board with Ö, Ä and Å without replacing other keys

[glossy sandal]

It’s the type of material the plates made out of

[pastel drift]

What about pc

[glossy sandal]

If you don’t know what you like it’s a really decent option to begin with

[glossy sandal]

Plastic, soft and flexy to type on

Same with pom, pom sounds a tad deeper imo

[pastel drift]

O

[glossy sandal]

and less flexy*

[pastel drift]

So many options

[twilit flare]

I kinda messed up I don't think the k6 I got came with aluminum case 😢

[glossy sandal]

Do you know what sound you want?

[pastel drift]

Cream

Hot cream

[twilit flare]

Tf

[glossy sandal]

Standard K6s come with plastic abs cases iirc

[glossy sandal]

😭

just pick pc dawg

[twilit flare]

Yeah Amazon barely had any mods to choose from

[pastel drift]

Alr

[glossy sandal]

Before you get mad

Please do remember

This is a preorder

10-12 weeks for it to be done

[pastel drift]

Ill wait

So fast

[twilit flare]

That's quick

[glossy sandal]

Really fast

[twilit flare]

Wdym

[pastel drift]

Lol

Amazon package takes longer

[twilit flare]

Faster than my will to get out of bed

[glossy sandal]

Specially when alot of boards go over a year

[pastel drift]

Relatable

[twilit flare]

I got up in sub 20 minutes today pretty happy

[pastel drift]

What Does aluminum make it sound like ?

[glossy sandal]

metallic, also stiffer to type on

[twilit flare]

Nooo

[pastel drift]

I got an extra 10 minutes of sleep

[twilit flare]

Glad I didn't get aluminum then

It just looked clean

[glossy sandal]

won’t be good for “creamy” whatever that means

[pastel drift]

W

It means hot sound

[twilit flare]

Actual Ws

Life Ws

[glossy sandal]

Aluminum case ≠ aluminum plate

[twilit flare]

Oh u meant plate

[glossy sandal]

Yea

[twilit flare]

Gtg that's the bell

[pastel drift]

https://youtu.be/qvsNyOhYMkQ

Hot

[glossy sandal]

a lot of people hate this video

[pastel drift]

Damm

Just for typing lol

Imagine

[glossy sandal]

More about how many people it attracts and how it leads to false expectations

[pastel drift]

:O

Plspls

But can I make sound somewhat like that?

[glossy sandal]

Yeah I guess

[pastel drift]

Epic

[twilit flare]

Why are you obsessed with creams lol

I hope my stabs don't rattle like hell so I dont have to bandaid mod and sh

[pastel drift]

The sound sounds pro

[glossy sandal]

Bandaids are ass

Just tune and lube your stabs

[pastel drift]

Imagine jev

How do you tune them?

[glossy sandal]

You bend the wire until they’re straight

[pastel drift]

O

[glossy sandal]

You can search it up

[native sundial]

this out of context was really funny to me

[glossy sandal]

😭

[twilit flare]

That's what I mean

[pastel drift]

Ez mod jev

[twilit flare]

And sh meaning etc

I don't wanna have to do tune

[pastel drift]

Why

[twilit flare]

Because I'm already lubing like 61 switches

[pastel drift]

Bruh

L

[twilit flare]

How is that an L for wanting to save time

[pastel drift]

Because you should spend time on your keyboard

To sound hot

[glossy sandal]

Takes like an hour and it’s a permanent solution

Bandaids degrade and make your stabs mushy

And when it degrades it’ll tick again because there’s nothing there

[pastel drift]

Rip

[twilit flare]

PLEASEEEE

[glossy sandal]

You don’t have to do your entire keyboard in a day

[twilit flare]

I'ma have to find the tutorials for the dumbest people

Like me

[pastel drift]

Jev you so smart

[twilit flare]

Yeah

[pastel drift]

Did you buy your keyboard yet?

[twilit flare]

It's fun when you know what you're doing but I dont

Yes

[pastel drift]

Noice

[glossy sandal]

[pastel drift]

[glossy sandal]

[twilit flare]

[pastel drift]

[glossy sandal]

Kind of

[twilit flare]

Because you're iq is 200 gas

[glossy sandal]

[deft wadi]

I picked up the Glorious GMMK keyboard at Best Buy for $75, and then read online about latency issues. Has this even been fixed or corrected? If this is an issue, I might end up returning it. Thanks.

[pastel drift]

Glorious 🤢🤢🤢

[twilit flare]

See yourself out.

[glossy sandal]

I’d assume they fixed it by now but I would still return it

[deft wadi]

[glossy sandal]

Gloros keyboards leave a lot to be desired

[twilit flare]

Nah we're joking

Phil is serious idk

[pastel drift]

Joking

[twilit flare]

Cap

[glossy sandal]

But I assume they’ve fixed the latency issues

[pastel drift]

You were the one saying glorious is bad

[twilit flare]

You would buy a gmmk just to burn it

Cap

[pastel drift]

No cap

[twilit flare]

Where is everyone

O

[twilit flare]

Where's gas

[forest pebble]

Hmm

[twilit flare]

Yoooo Blivion

[forest pebble]

Waiting for food to come 😁

[twilit flare]

Ayeeeeeee

What'd you order

[forest pebble]

Something that is not done where you are they call it french tacos (basically you take fries, meat and stuff in a close wrap )

Very unhealthy

[twilit flare]

Damn

Id eat it though lol

[forest pebble]

Could say it's a poutine but in a Fajitas/wrap

[pastel drift]

Sounds good

[twilit flare]

I'd try it

[forest pebble]

Yeah sound like I'm going to become wide 😁

[twilit flare]

Like the orange chicken burrito lmao

[twilit flare]

20 extra pounds

[forest pebble]

9kg not bad

[twilit flare]

I think the most unhealthy I've eaten was when I ate burger king every week

[twilit flare]

Nice

[forest pebble]

Reached 90kg at peak last winter

[pastel drift]

I’m kind of worried my dad will say no to a 180 dollar base

Not even the whole keybord

[forest pebble]

Went back to 82 then stable 85

[twilit flare]

Why is it so much 😭

[pastel drift]

Custom made

And stuff

[twilit flare]

U designed it?

[pastel drift]

Ye

[twilit flare]

Ohhhh

Fair

[forest pebble]

Custom ? What keeb

Oh i see

[twilit flare]

Yes

[pastel drift]

The one has recommended me

Gas

[forest pebble]

Cheap then if it's customized by you

[twilit flare]

Yall on a rich level

[forest pebble]

I meant if it's customized by himself

Like what kind of customization?

[twilit flare]

You gonna add foam and toothpaste bro?

@pastel drift

[pastel drift]

Yea

[twilit flare]

Let's go

[pastel drift]

Well it’s options for the build

What color base you want it and the color of the weight and stuff

[forest pebble]

Oh the qk

[pastel drift]

Yea

[twilit flare]

That's so clean

[forest pebble]

Ok I see it's a custom keyboard

[twilit flare]

Show it again pleaseeee

[forest pebble]

Well it's very good value for the price

[pastel drift]

Ok

[twilit flare]

How much would a case normally be

Chstom

[forest pebble]

I have qk65 and it's good value, great starter

[twilit flare]

NVM

[forest pebble]

Depends on a lot of criteria, but you can start having mid range boards at 300 to 500, imo over 500 you start getting in the high end

[twilit flare]

Fuckin hell

[twilit flare]

OU MY GODDDDD

[forest pebble]

Of course price shift a bit depending on layout and size

[twilit flare]

YRS

YEESIR

[forest pebble]

A 65% has less materials than a tkl

[twilit flare]

Imagine how heavy that is

[twilit flare]

Yeah

I don't wanna build completely from scratch so all I'm doing is lubing stabs and switches

If I go anywhere near the pcb it's over

The keyboard isn't turning back on

[forest pebble]

I think now I have stuff from all kind of range if price

Never bought boards that were like 1k and more at gb though

[twilit flare]

Is keyboard building an addictive

[forest pebble]

(though i did buy in that range and more aftermarket)

But past a point it's more a collection thing

[twilit flare]

Oh yeah

[pastel drift]

W collection

[twilit flare]

Like model car building kits

[forest pebble]

I'd say with a lot of mid range custom boards you can get satisfied stick with it

[pastel drift]

Like funkos is but with use

[twilit flare]

I wanna do that

But I'm broke

I think I'm investing literally more than half of all my money into this

No joke

[pastel drift]

Maybe you can work a part time job?

[forest pebble]

Because higher end keyboard have additional designs parts that are costing more to produce and increase the price without really improving sound and typing experience

[twilit flare]

I want to

School comes first though

[forest pebble]

I mean a lot of stuff come with patience

[pastel drift]

During break maybe

[forest pebble]

I dunno what grade you are

[twilit flare]

I forgot

[pastel drift]

11th

[twilit flare]

1st grade or something

[pastel drift]

Lol

[twilit flare]

I think

[forest pebble]

But I did some "web app stuff contracts " when I was in what would be uni equivalent for yall

Or college also ?

After 18

[twilit flare]

Too complicated

[pastel drift]

Damm

In one year I guess

Too small brain to do anything

[twilit flare]

Same

But you already have a job

[forest pebble]

Nah I was student, just that doing some small contracts on side

[twilit flare]

You're really smart though

[forest pebble]

But it's like a few years ago

[twilit flare]

You're above average definitely, I'm not

[forest pebble]

Basically i was in generalist engineering school but I liked to code and stuff on the side. Apart from that nothing special 😁

[pastel drift]

Not really

[forest pebble]

I tend to min max

[twilit flare]

Wtf

[forest pebble]

Doing minimum to pass my grades

[twilit flare]

Engineering school

[pastel drift]

I mean all I do is constructction with my dad

[twilit flare]

Slow down slow down bro

[twilit flare]

That can apply into a lot of jobs though

That's a job

[pastel drift]

Damm

[twilit flare]

All I can do is type fast lol

That's it

[forest pebble]

I think I met a lot of people clever than me that did less studies

[pastel drift]

Do coding then jev

I wanna do coding

[forest pebble]

Experience is as valuable if not more

[twilit flare]

It really is

[forest pebble]

But studying is also giving a set of tools

[twilit flare]

I hate studying

[pastel drift]

Lol

[twilit flare]

It's stressful

I don't even think I know how to study correctly

[forest pebble]

That's why sometimes it's good to try different stuff

[twilit flare]

Yeah

[forest pebble]

Like if you have some specific skill you like using (let's say cooking) try to improve on that

[pastel drift]

Hey bliv. What’s the most common coding language?

For jobs

[forest pebble]

No idea python ?

[pastel drift]

Alr

[twilit flare]

Probably python or html

[pastel drift]

I’ll start there then

[twilit flare]

Thoughts on html blivion

[forest pebble]

Sounds pretty common to me, html is not a language is more like description

[twilit flare]

Oh

I'm stupid

[forest pebble]

A way to format or represent data

No worries

[twilit flare]

Thanks

[forest pebble]

Because often in html for web stuff you embed JavaScript which is an actual language

[twilit flare]

Yeah yeah

JavaScript is cool

[pastel drift]

Pro

[forest pebble]

It's let's say, wild west

[twilit flare]

Lol

[forest pebble]

You can do a lot of cool things

[pastel drift]

Wild West

[forest pebble]

With a lot of different ways

[twilit flare]

The mug

[forest pebble]

But also a lot of wrong ways 😁

[twilit flare]

So java is inconsistent?

[forest pebble]

JavaScript is not Java btw

It's like two different thing

[twilit flare]

Oh bruh

I meant JavaScript then

Oh yeah there's the Java with the coffee logo

[forest pebble]

It's very permissive, doesn't means it's bad

[twilit flare]

Ofc it's not bad

[forest pebble]

But I'm not really a dev rn 😁

[twilit flare]

You sound like one lol

[pastel drift]

Ong

[forest pebble]

I'm the category of people that don't really know what they are doing but it's called DevOps

[pastel drift]

Pro

[twilit flare]

If you know this much and don't know what you're doing I'm not gonna know crap

[pastel drift]

Lol

[twilit flare]

Stop laughing at me I'm insecure

[pastel drift]

Idk how they just put codes together

Know which one does what and how they connect or if they work with teach other

[forest pebble]

Apparently yup

And it's all in the manual

[pastel drift]

Dang

[forest pebble]

(to an extent)

[twilit flare]

It's all muscle memory

[forest pebble]

Nah

[twilit flare]

It's all in your midn

[forest pebble]

It's all google, stack overflow and reading the docs

[twilit flare]

Oh lol

[forest pebble]

You do have to have logic

[twilit flare]

I thought they just remembered everything they learn each day and type it down for hours without stopping

[forest pebble]

Because problem needs to be understood

But you do remember stuff from time to time

[twilit flare]

What's stack overflow btw

I haven't understood it

[forest pebble]

Because at some point there are a lot of problems or solution you already used

Stack overflow is a forum

[twilit flare]

Ohhh

[forest pebble]

Where devs helps others

And there are very good ones there 😁

[twilit flare]

The best ones

Sounds great

[forest pebble]

But going back to keyboards

Currently learning how to do fusion360 magic so I can make a keyboard

[twilit flare]

Fusion360 magic?

[forest pebble]

Well fusion 360

Some cad software

I model parts, send them to be CNC

Boom keybor

[twilit flare]

Love Canada

[twilit flare]

Oh wow

[forest pebble]

That's the plan

[twilit flare]

That sounds like a cool task

[forest pebble]

Yup

For now plan is basic 60% wkl sandwich mount keeb

Then I'll see what can be improved

[twilit flare]

Do you only model keyboards

[forest pebble]

Next step maybe top mount

[twilit flare]

Damn reception

[forest pebble]

Well for PCB I'll use a standard one

But I'll look into making one later on

[twilit flare]

Brave for even touching a PCB

[forest pebble]

I mean keyboard pcbs are not that complicated (relative to a computer motherboard as an example)

[twilit flare]

True that

Me and my brother spend like 30 minutes tryna find all the correct plugs for stuff

[true dirge]

I've been thinking of replacing my rk Reds with gateron browns

Could someone tell their experience how good gatheron brown are

I really like the blue switches but there's too loud for work

So I was thinking brown

[stoic tangle]

If you just want a better linear experience I'd suggest gateron milky yellows. I haven't tried browns though

[twilit flare]

Facts

[pastel drift]

Milky yellows

W

[untold orchid]

stock theyre pretty ass

lubed pretty great

if you want the smoothest stock switch I would look at the tangerines

[pastel drift]

O I forgot about those

[stoic tangle]

There's also neopolitan and boba u4t, those are niceee

[onyx summit]

Jwk t1 or bust

[pastel drift]

What about black inks?

The first version

[stoic tangle]

black ink v2s were notably better from what I heard, typing on them right now, crazzzzzzzzy smooth

[pastel drift]

O

I’ll have to heard them again

[twilit flare]

You keep talking about black inks and black inks

Lol

[stoic tangle]

I mean they are a legend switch, which got even better with V2 so it makes sense. They're a tad expensive though so I don't tend to mention it for beginners

[twilit flare]

Let's go

[pastel drift]

luckily jev is a pro

[stoic tangle]

Who's that?

[pastel drift]

nossta i meant

[stoic tangle]

Oh okay

[hot glade]

Anyone know if this set from Aliexpress is a clone of a legit set? https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804433805457.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.648a38da8HeReT&mp=1&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa&_randl_shipto=US

Trying to find out but I haven't gotten any hits

[sweet thunder]

Clone

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=112021.0

[coral fern]

anyone here know if i can just buy a anne pro 2 board by itself? my friend gave me his broken anne pro 2, but all the keys are still good

[glossy sandal]

You mean the case?

[stoic tangle]

When you say all the keys do you means switches and keycaps or just keycaps?

[twilit flare]

Trooper

[sweet thunder]

CT6969

[pastel drift]

no way

my dad said to ask my mom lol

[glossy sandal]

rip

[pastel drift]

90% chance she says yes

i should get the akko cream yellows

[onyx summit]

How long will lubing switches take

[glossy sandal]

Depends how fast you are

you could probably knock them all out in an hour or two, or maybe three

[chrome raft]

Durock POMs >

[chrome raft]

14years

[forest pebble]

From less than hour to a lot of hours

Depends on technique, and how you lube

Like when I have to keep the original housing and stem per switch it's slow for me

And fastest is to tub lube springs and stems

[last trench]

Built this a bit ago

[chrome raft]

You shouldn’t tub lube stems -_-

[forest pebble]

NGL works well

Only for linear stems though, and non borken in stuff

I mix 205 and 105 to have a more liquid solution also

[amber tartan]

have fun with wobbly keycaps and uneven lubing

[chrome raft]

Hand lubing isn’t that big of a deal

A couple swipes on each side of the stems and the bottom sliders

1-2 drops per 10 springs in a bag for 5 minutes

[stoic tangle]

Well idk, banana splits are pretty good

[chrome raft]

They’re just a trash recolour

So many switches are complete ewaste

[twilit flare]

Lol

[glossy sandal]

Nice keyboard

[blissful dragon]

fr

[glossy sandal]

2hu fan

[blissful dragon]

?

[glossy sandal]

forgor

[blissful dragon]

you forgor 💀

[glossy sandal]

idk

[pastel drift]

Keyboard

Lego keyboard

[amber tartan]

ok

[twilit flare]

WSG rye

2 more days until I see keyboard

[glossy sandal]

Heyllo

[twilit flare]

Hey gas
