good glossy layered screen will handle the reflections

#

matte is a decent budget alternative tho

matte is better in lower cost applications where the manufacturer wants to save money

i was asking about the glossy panel that handles reflections well

#

maybe S24 Ultra has one

you have one?

so there's a chance those glossy panels will be in more portable devices

would be nice if my phone stopped being a mirror

i’ve personally not had issues with phones that can do higher brightnesses in sun exposed enviroments

this phone is bright but i can still see myself, brigthness doesnt help much with reflections

I'm in a classroom right now and I have to specifically orient my phone not to reflect one of the fluorescent lights or else the entire screen turns white

So that's a thing too

Hey. I'm looking for a new keyboard to use for work. I mainly do programming and other software stuff and also do a lot of report writing. I was therefore looking for a decent keyboard for this. In the past I have some nice experience using a Keychron Q1 with Kailh Box Whites and is today by far my fave keyboard, but also my only "custom" keyboard comming from your gaming ones. I'm also Norwegian which means that I'm used to a Nordic layout. That means ISO and buttons for ÆØÅ. Recently I saw this from iqunix going here; https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iqunixmq80keyboard/iqunix-mq80-3-mode-mechanical-aluminum-keyboard
I did kind of want to get this one as it looked awesome, but I also sort of hesitated because of the ANSI layout which also means that I have one less key on the middle row. I'm then either gonna be missing ' or Æ which I'm not sure how I was gonna deal with. Perhaps you here has some recommendations to keyboards?

Mainly what I'm looking for is decent build quality, needs to have hotswappable keyswitches, F-row, I do like tactile/clicky and if it has a numpad, I really like the numpad on the leftside instead of the rightside.

#

which basilisk mouse is better, rgular v3 or ultimate

charred plank
#

They sound super clacky and are about as thick as the Chinese abs caps

#

Plus they use recycled abs

#

Maybe if I find a really good price

#

But to me it's just $15 caps with vibrant dies

worldly garden
charred plank
#

Tbh, I wouldn't buy any gmk sets at $80

#

Gmk to me is kinda like the Gucci of keycaps

#

They match the physical qualities of the cheap Chinese stuff and sometimes fall behind their knockoffs but you sometimes get a cool recognizable design

#

But the reality is a lot of that cost is just for that premium brand name

#

Which isn't what I usually am looking for

worldly garden
#

wwell iss not really for the name

#

they arr really good

charred plank
#

They have good dies, but it's just recycled abs cherry profile caps with a pretty normal thickness

worldly garden
#

u can see their print quality and caps consistency, compare them to chinese cmk's

charred plank
#

Tbh, never had an issue with prints on most cheap caps

#

Some don't sand the injection points tbf, but that takes like no time and isn't visible cause it's under the cap

#

Even the signature plastics set I had a hard time justifying given it is just pbt plastic for that price, but it's a unique profile in a color option I liked with a thicker body than almost any other caps I know of

#

Which made it a little justifiable

#

But even then

#

I'd rather not spend $100 on caps again unless they offer me something unique

worldly garden

since when sa sp is pbt ?

The flex kit is die sub pbt @worldly garden

about the matte vs glossy stuff earlier

#

for the first time in my life i have found a time where i could use a glossy display

#

i have just added an led strip that's right above my desk, and it sorta is illuminating my entire matte 2nd monitor

#

but i think the bigger solution is i need to somehow stop it from shining in the direction of my monitor

#

so you guys win that one point

#

i still stand by glossy being worthless in an actually well lit room with laptop

P1 is pretty hollow and thin sounding relative to what most people aim for

Also, imo the finish and plating are pretty sub par

You could also probably get a neo 80 for a little more

idk if anyone would make a specifically webcam device that's wireless because you probably wouldn't be moving your webcam out of range of the wire, or even moving at all particularly often

# main narwhal what happened

idk im assuming the tolerances are off or something becuase i either line up the holes and get it floating or fully seat the back hook and it sits popped up with a ton of tension like so

#

knight v3 stabs in a keychron v3 max, i put the stock stabs back in no problem and im gonna try again and do some measuring tmrw when i try new switches (so i might as well open it up)

and this happens sometimes

usually I'll fit the hook side in first and wiggle it side to side until it fully settles, then put the other end in and screw

ill play with em again when i open it up

hey guys im looking to upgrade my keyboard that i use for a lot of typing and gaming

i currently got the MSI GK50 with Low profile white clicky switches
and they hurt my fingers after i use them for a few hours i dont know if the cause is the low profileness or if its because i need to put a lot of force on the switches

i want something with a very tactile feel but i dont want it to feel like a membrane keyboard

the switches i got right now are not really tactile as i wanted, the sound is pretty nice but sometimes its too loud

#

i heard of the brand wooting but i dont know if thats a good brand or not

the only brands i know for keyboards are the gaming brand ones but most of them are selling overpriced junk

flat dock
#

Hmm well for low profile there won't be as many options

flat dock
#

do you like clicky switches still or would you want regular tactile

cobalt eagle
#

i want a tkl one

cobalt eagle
#

that doesnt feel like membrane

flat dock
#

yeah but generally both can give you a heavy tactile feedback

#

you can choose whether to get clicky or not

cobalt eagle
#

yeah i want clicky

#

but i dont want it to be very loud

#

like those razer purple switches

flat dock
#

may be a challenge

cobalt eagle
flat dock
#

just looked up those purples and they kinda sound just as loud as others

#

actually as far as clicky there is the ttc brother which should be a bit quieter but i have no idea

#

thats for switches

#

what is your budget roughly

cobalt eagle
#

i dont really have a budget

#

if its very amazing i get for any price

#

i want something best value for my money

#

but if you really want a number

#

id say around 200

#

can go higher

#

did you find anything @flat dock

flat dock
#

got distracted

flat dock
cobalt eagle
#

just not loud

flat dock
#

ive seen neo80 as a good option for the keyboard part but honestly i think you should research for the best custom keyboards, and figure out which are good by reading reviews and your own opinions

cobalt eagle
#

do you think i should fully built my own keyboard

flat dock
#

most of the options are gonna be entirely built already, but you can change the switches to something you like more

#

some will be barebones where the keyboard is built, but doesn't have switches or keycaps installed yet

Keychron

Keychron Q6 Max is a 100% layout full metal QMK/VIA wireless mechanical keyboard featuring 2.4 GHz and a 1000 Hz polling rate. Customize any key or create macro commands through VIA software as usual, and connect the Q6 Max with up to 3 devices through Bluetooth for seamless multitasking across Mac, Windows, and Linux.

Is there a way to customize the key colors?

@timber zinc I also personally recommend against the keychron q series. Of the metal boards I've owned it's the worst imo

what do you recommend them instead

If they need the num pad hi98 or m1wV3 imo are better and cheaper options imo

got it with browns, currently testing baby kangaroos and silvers

Just bad in terms of value for money I believe

jagged jungle
#

yea

#

and the sound tests i hear are quite metally

#

i dont mind the plastic of the v max tho

#

just def avoid base v series and kinda K series if you are a gamerer

timber zinc
#

Can you send me a link to one of those 100% keyboard you recommend? I looked it up and it does not have a numpad so i did something wrong

jagged jungle
#

i mean you could always see if the v whateverfullsizeis max is on yamazon

charred plank
jagged jungle
#

im not super keyboard knowledeable tho

charred plank
#

Imo, v max isn't the moves either

jagged jungle
#

i mean i think its quite nice but idc all that much

charred plank
#

You can get a better quality similar board in the linky 87 for like $37

jagged jungle
#

i wanted 1000hz polling rate and good latency and via in a convenient package

charred plank
#

Newer v max also have really bad creaking

#

Got 2

#

And the newer chassis they cheaped out on even more

jagged jungle
#

odd

charred plank
#

Which was kinda upsetting cause they already were pretty poorly made

jagged jungle
#

i think my amazon order was older stock then cuz mine seems fine

#

the only sound issue i have with mine is the spacebar stabs

charred plank
#

Imo v max is the best rounded keychron line, but it's still overpriced and worse rounded than cheaper options

jagged jungle
#

Oh, and also a high fixed typing angle was a dealbreaker for me

#

it just kinda is right there with all the boxes i wanted

#

3 degree typing angle(or anything not too steep), 1000 hz AND good latency, hotswap, qmk/via/keychron launcher ig, tkl

What does rounded keychron line mean

well rounded

it covers a lot of categories/features well

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t really care what my keyboard sounds like. The video of the keychron and hi75 sound about the same to me. Both are leagues better than my current keyboard

but if you know what you want you can find better

Maybe not the right place for this, but I've been trying to find the answer for this for quite a while now. My question is about the D-subminiature cable connector standards. The name itself implies that at one point, there was a miniature variant and a full sized variant, but I've looked into the history and nobody mentions any predecessors... Only that it was developed by cannon in 1952, and later on HD and microD were created to keep up with the times. Does anyone have any leads or an answer as to what came before D-subminiature?

Since cannon only used D as the prefix for the product line

#

guys whats wrong with VA monitors?

ionic briar
#

otherwise, not much else tbh. The good one minimize that drawbacks enough that you probably won't notice, while keeping VA's advantage over IPS in terms of contrast ratio and stuff

deep umbra
ionic briar
# deep umbra So basically for fps games IPS is the way to go?

IPS is like the most versatile, it does all thing pretty good
TN is like tryhard level professional player playing for worlds or something like that. TN has the fastest pixel response time out of the 3 LCD tech, but everything will be off-colored when you look at the monitor not straight on

#

OLED is the new frontier, 0.3ms pixel response time, great color etc
but the current tech has burn in issue over time

deep umbra
ionic briar
#

Kinda, yea
You basically trade VA's higher contrast ratio and stuff (which would be nice when you want to enjoy the visuals in game, maybe HDR if that monitor has the hardware to support it) for better motion clarity from an IPS. Don't have to deal with the black smearing and motion defects and stuff, you know

#

and since your priorities are fps games, I don't think you spend much time enjoying the visuals

Im thinking about the Pulsar PCMK, I've looked at the ROG HE keyboard too as well as some others

#

I just dont wanna spent 300$ on a wooting lol

worldly garden
#

the 60he

serene sluice
#

Id want the 80HE

#

plastic or metal doesn't matter to me too much

#

my roomate has the 80HE and he likes it

#

I also program so I dont want to lose all my keys, but I am thinking more just straight up gaming for this keyboard, and then another for typing

serene sluice
#

Plasting 80HE is 199 so id spend the other 24$ on it

worldly garden
#

check those out

#

this one is 80he killer

serene sluice
#

You gotta add all the stuff to it though

#

Not too knowledgeable on what I have to put on it on the website

#

the checkboxes part

worldly garden
#

is the add ons

#

u are fine not choosing any

serene sluice
#

150 for it with Gateron Jade Pros seems pretty good

worldly garden
#

better than wooting for sure

serene sluice
#

Is there even a difference between the Jade Pro and Jade Gaming besides the top of the switch

worldly garden
#

the specs i think

serene sluice
#

Ill take a peek at it more when I get home since I am about to leave work

worldly garden
#

right

serene sluice
#

My roomate has a Wooting and I've used the Lekker switches before on my Sayodevice since they are better than the stock switches on that keypad

#

Also software is a big part of it for me since I basically use iCue for everything right now and I am about to move completely away from corsair cause its giving me problems

worldly garden
#

gaming brands are just a gimmick

#

is time for you to buy some actual good products

serene sluice
#

Fr

#

I’m gonna get an LTT desk pad, and then a new keyboard and mouse. Def wireless mouse and want to try to get a HE keyboard

worldly garden
#

so you play games or just wanna try out what he is ?

serene sluice
#

I play games

#

Siege mostly for FPS but thinking gonna be getting into some other stuff

jagged jungle
#

SIEGE

jagged jungle
#

well atleast i ordered it

worldly garden
#

deskmat

serene sluice
#

I have a corsair deskmat right now that has a small USB hub on it which I like so I can have my charger for my headset and mouse on it

#

Its is old and lowkey kinda nasty since the only place I could eat at in my Freshman dorm 3 years ago wass my desk

#

Also convienently need to measure my desk and havee no tape measure

jagged jungle
#

use your thumb

serene sluice
noble chasm
#

whats the best keyboard under $150

jagged jungle
serene sluice
#

Deskpad I have right now is 930x400 so Imma get a 900x400 deskpad

jagged jungle
#

i did not read all of the first paragraph

#

😭

serene sluice
#

I just looked at the figure not the text lol

jagged jungle
#

same

serene sluice
#

My mouse is "2000 Hz" polling rate, but polling rate test shows just under 1000 Hz

jagged jungle
#

r u using a website?

#

those aint accurate

serene sluice
#

Yea I was

#

I got the razer app for polling rate testing

#

NuPhy and MCHOSE are coming up a lot when I am looking for HE keybaords

#

K70 Pro TKL seems interesting, but the F keys row, arrows keys, and some other ones are normal mechanical keys

serene sluice
#

Yea that too

worldly garden
#

dont get that

serene sluice
#

I keep seeing the ROH HE keyboard too

worldly garden
#

items being advertised mean they arent good enough

serene sluice
#

Pulsar, NuPhy, Wooting, and the ROG are the 4 I see a lot in reviews

worldly garden
#

reviewers are paid

serene sluice
#

I think LTT Labs is unbiased

#

Plus tehis Pulsar keyboard is hot swappable so i could buy a bunch of Lekkers or Jade Pros and put them in there. THey come stock with Gateron Double Rail

worldly garden
#

up to you really

#

i gave u the best option i could find

serene sluice
#

I dont feel like building a keyboard

#

Otherwise I would go with that

worldly garden
#

hmm

#

hummingbird68 ?

serene sluice
#

Looks nice

#

Seems a tad tall for no wrist rest

#

My main issue with my current keyboard is that I do not have a wrist rest for it and it is fairly tall

worldly garden
#

then buy the wrist rest

#

lol

serene sluice
#

Yea I’m just too lazy to

flat dock
#

the keyboard test on that same website gives me 50 hz lmao

#

that's just because physically the fastest i can press and release a key, not a very smart way of doing their test

flat dock
#

i am really using the wrong switches for this lmao, let me test it

#

where tf is that

jagged jungle
#

spacebar clicker at the top

flat dock
#

why is "spacebar clicker" on that website a mouse clicker

jagged jungle
#

then spacebar counter

flat dock
#

o

jagged jungle
#

gotta have faith

flat dock
#

did they even test this before releasing it

#

thats like the most obvious oversight ever

jagged jungle
#

just do 5 sec

#

and uh

#

no rules other than meat presses only

flat dock
jagged jungle
#

no cheating

#

(i switched to a speed silver and used both pointer fingers lol)

#

got 39 with just right thumb and 35 with left

flat dock
#

i can get 40 with pointer fingers

jagged jungle
#

guess im goated

flat dock
#

these are full travel tactiles

jagged jungle
#

oh well i got 56 with a baby kangaroo (not full travel)

#

lemme try brown

flat dock
#

dont make me install a pear in this spacebar

#

or a beer actually

jagged jungle
#

the baby kangaroos are hella grippy

#

to keycaps

#

took the switch out with my spacebar

flat dock
#

my gateron melodics are like that

#

melodics are the only switch to get pulled out of my keyboard with the keycap so far

#

man the gateron beer sounds awful on spacebar

jagged jungle
#

ive had it happen with the jupiter browns but only the 5 pin ones and only somtimes

flat dock
#

also it crackles when i push down

#

gotta love that housing wobble

jagged jungle
#

meanwhile the bbks managed to pull out a letter key

#

with a brown lmao @flat dock

flat dock
#

i might have a brown somewhere here

#

ttc brown

jagged jungle
#

gat jupiter for me

flat dock
#

im slower with the beer

jagged jungle
#

in a v3 max as im sure you know with all my yap

flat dock
#

this is such an awful spacebar key

jagged jungle
#

skill issue?

flat dock
#

itjustfeelshorrible

jagged jungle
#

not a fan of the bbk spring ping if i go slow or push on the south side medium speed

#

still good switches tho

flat dock
#

no this spacebar just sounds awful

#

did removing the pet sheets do that

jagged jungle
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

stuff it with sticky tack or tape

#

i just stuffed mine with a small maount of sticky tack

#

its now slightly heavier and substantially deeper

flat dock
#

it's like bypassing the gasket i think

jagged jungle
#

mf what

flat dock
#

no

jagged jungle
#

baby kangaroo just pulled out when i took off my spacebar

#

again

#

grippy af

#

i ordered new stabs

#

i really dont want to open this shit up again tho

#

takes ages

worldly garden
#

hello

jagged jungle
#

#

jk

worldly garden
jagged jungle
#

couldnt use my hand if i wanted too

#

cant get under the bar

#

not a floating keycap board

worldly garden
#

umm

#

so u use a puller ?

#

nice

jagged jungle
#

gateron baby kangaroo box is fire btw

flat dock
#

using a screwdriver on keycaps is chaotic good

#

oh i dont have ny of the boxes from my switches

#

they get repacked by milktooth

#

at least i can buy reasonable amounts though

jagged jungle
#

@flat dock cute

flat dock
#

lmao

worldly garden
#

thats bullshit

#

use a puller

#

is 3 bucks

flat dock
#

its the gigachad method

#

not buying yet another single purpose tool :gigachad:

worldly garden
#

gigachad method to destroy your keycaps

#

buy a 2 in 1

flat dock
#

who looks at the bottoms of your keycaps

worldly garden
#

switch and keycap puller

flat dock
#

ive scratched a few of my keycaps from the switch puller because of how tight some of them are into the plate

worldly garden
#

keycaps use keycaps puller not switch puller lol

flat dock
#

i know

worldly garden
#

if you are aware alright

#

just dont tell others to do the same

flat dock
#

often you remove singular switches while keeping other switches and keycaps installed

worldly garden
#

i usually remove keycaps then switch

#

99% are

flat dock
#

what if you want to replace one switch

worldly garden
#

then i replace it like it intended ?

flat dock
#

that's what i was saying

worldly garden
#

handle with care

flat dock
#

not possible with a lot of switches

worldly garden
#

it is, you are just a careless person

#

is sad to see people sabotaging their keyboard

flat dock
#

no there are just some switches that stay so tight into the plate that you cant keep it dead straight when p[pulling up lol

worldly garden
#

apply gentle pressure and it will eventually come out

wooden ember
worldly garden
#

what plate you are using

wooden ember
#

be gentle

flat dock
flat dock
#

but some are

#

that is how i scratched one of my keycaps

wooden ember
#

If the switch went in, then it will come out

#

Wait, are you taking switches out with the caps still on??

flat dock
#

it won't wiggle out lol

#

no

#

i'm just saying some switches have a really tight fit into the plate

wooden ember
#

So then how are you scratching caps when taking out switches?

flat dock
#

after the switch comes out and my entire hand assembly shoots up

wooden ember
#

what does that sentence even mean

flat dock
#

your hand shoots up after the amount of force required to pull it

wooden ember
#

Are you chucking the switch at the pile of caps??

jagged jungle
#

there are caps surrounding it

wooden ember
#

oi vey

#

very careless

flat dock
#

whatever you say man

wooden ember
#

It is what it is

worldly garden
#

treat them like how you treat your girlfriend

wooden ember
#

maybe remove more caps then before taking out switches...

#

Get a better switch puller

jagged jungle
#

every time its taken me too much force ive just had a bad grip on the release prongs

wooden ember
#

idk, definitely skill issue though

worldly garden
#

those laze speedrun disassebling keyboards

worldly garden
#

he will seprerate the top and bot housing

flat dock
worldly garden
#

while pulling the switch out

#

😂

flat dock

wooden ember
jagged jungle
#

worldly garden
#

flat dock
#

worldly garden
#

😭

wooden ember
jagged jungle
#

yknow whats funny

worldly garden
#

next time build your keyboard plateless bao

jagged jungle
#

literally every keychron keyboard ive looked at has a "no discount codes can be used on the [this keyboard]" disclaimer

worldly garden
#

u wont even suffer from those anymore

wooden ember
flat dock
worldly garden
#

and thats it

flat dock
#

that would make it easier would it not

worldly garden
#

it would

#

@wooden ember hope god forgive me for this sins

jagged jungle
#

wow

flat dock
#

idk why you said that then

worldly garden
#

no plate = no stiff pull out

jagged jungle
#

so you can take it out easier

worldly garden
#

am i right

jagged jungle
#

duh

worldly garden
#

yeah spooky

flat dock
worldly garden
#

even easier if you use a 1.2mm pcb

wooden ember
#

#

no struggle

worldly garden

no plate = no problem

wooden ember
#

it is VERY gasket mounted tho

wooden ember

i have anodized cases that dont leave fingerprint marks

worldly garden
wooden ember
#

why does that one show prints

flat dock
#

idk

worldly garden
#

bad anodizing

jagged jungle
#

i mean for keychron keyboards

worldly garden
#

u wont expect much

wooden ember
#

$100usd for cheapest semi-built board

worldly garden
#

if u want to support china buy neo or kbdfans

wooden ember
#

glad I never bought

flat dock
#

the pp plate is also so flexible i can't insert switches on the edges of the keyboard without supporting it with an ifixit spudger

#

i'm glad i bought it

worldly garden
#

to stabilize the plate

#

then u do the edge

flat dock
#

it's just insanely flexible

worldly garden
#

or use a plate fork

flat dock
#

yeah my plate fork is an ifixit spudger lmao

wooden ember
flat dock
#

it works ™️

wooden ember
#

you risk damaging the pcb though

flat dock
#

i'm supporting the plate not the pcb

#

and it's also a nylon tool

#

like i push up on the plate while inserting the switch

wooden ember
#

just get a plate fork

#

they are cheap

flat dock
#

idk if that would work really for what i wanted to do

jagged jungle
#

can i get a plate spoon

wooden ember
#

plate knife

#

oh shit new username dibs

flat dock
#

those are the only linears i like

jagged jungle
#

other than that i like tactiles

deep inside

that's why tactiles are better

#

idk why i am even using linears right now

jagged jungle

browns are fine

#

i like the baby kangaroos but they are a bit heavy

#

i do like how soft the browns sound

wooden ember

#

i am a big fan of the outemu pear

these switches are so scratchy

im literally using super tactiles
