[sacred snow]

datto doesn't even remember it exists

[slow socket]

nor should he

[amber horizon]

crab arms dont actually exist, its just extremely late phase gaslighting by the D2 devs

[slow socket]

that entire season was

[sacred snow]

ima stay uninstalled until they either unnerf yas or drop a massive banger of a hunter exotic that just obliterates the competition

[slow socket]

nothing about that entire season actuslly exists

[amber horizon]

[slow socket]

ITS ACTUALLY GOOD THO I CANT DISRESPECT IT LIKE THAT

[amber horizon]

sunpoop

[sacred snow]

nothing will ever top yas for me

its just the peak solar hunter performance and you cant convince me otherwise

straight up dmc combo

[slow socket]

solar hunter isn’t a real subclass

name a subclass with less identity

[amber horizon]

arc warlock

[slow socket]

besides arc hunter

you’re actually certifiable

[amber horizon]

certifiably insane, probably

[slow socket]

that’s what i mean

[sacred snow]

like what,its so god damn clean like just look at it https://youtu.be/YXetYowzGcs?si=pbY4ew9QcUIm9kPn

[amber horizon]

certainly not certifiably able to operate a forklift :(

[sacred snow]

you may be cool but you will never be yas-solar-hunter-soloing-caretaker cool

[slow socket]

literally shut up he’s using mountaintop

[sacred snow]

forgot the mark the timestamp

[amber horizon]

how about solar titan soloing crota cool

[slow socket]

die

[amber horizon]

lol

[sacred snow]

legit cool tho

[slow socket]

mountaintop users die

[sacred snow]

but yea kicking crota off his own throne world

imagine if the rat in your kitchen just kicks you out of your 20th floor apartment room

[amber horizon]

i know its a joke but do cool it a lil bit with that here- it might be seen as an actual threat and i REALLY dont want that

[frigid trail]

Shi he can pay the bills

[slow socket]

but drifter’s the rat tho

[sacred snow]

by very aggressively eating a slice of cheese

[slow socket]

okay sorry

[amber horizon]

nah not your fault gamer

[sacred snow]

idk about you guys but i tried playing warlock and titan before and its just

not fun at all

[slow socket]

for clarification, was banter, not an actual threat, but will cool it

[frigid trail]

Warlock eww

[sacred snow]

except strand titan,he's cool

[frigid trail]

Hunter top

[slow socket]

strand Titan with banner is dope

[sacred snow]

hunter master race

[slow socket]

but yeah same

[sacred snow]

they nerf us cuz they fear us

[frigid trail]

I like hunters cause of the capes

[slow socket]

i was legit thinking about making a YouTube channel just to make an in depth guide on gyrfalcon hunter and never posting again

[frigid trail]

I should really reinstall D2

[slow socket]

pls

[amber horizon]

warlocks have the "i study so i can beat you into a pulpe with technomagic" vibe and i always live for it

[frigid trail]

Which class has the biggest ego in your honest opinion

[amber horizon]

you can tell i like those kinds of characters (PFP is Asuka R Kreutz)

[slow socket]

warlock

[amber horizon]

oh hunters have the ego easily

[amber horizon]

source 1

[sacred snow]

bro you main warlock you dont get to say that

[amber horizon]

source 2

[slow socket]

lol

[amber horizon]

bro i cited my sources

[slow socket]

not the mla format

[amber horizon]

oh my god hold on

[frigid trail]

Isn't there a subclass of the warlock thst has a bigger ego then hunters?

[sacred snow]

counterpoint

all of your points have no value now

[amber horizon]

No? Arc warlocks are arc buddy ferries, void warlocks just decided not to die, solar warlock is the team medic or is forced into well bc they are the only warlock, stasis warlock is the GM Guy and strand warlock is just some hippie going along with the flow, maan

[sacred snow]

#td2-general-chat message

and this too

[slow socket]

LOL

[amber horizon]

all classes will say they are the best.

[sacred snow]

ok but like unironically true

[frigid trail]

Ngl solar locks come in clutch in raids

[slow socket]

NOT THE FEBRUARY OF 2021

[frigid trail]

Healing well

[sacred snow]

in like less than 12 hours hunter will only have 2 viable subclass

solar hunter does not matter outside of dps phase

because joe lost a game of trials against yas hunter and got mad

[frigid trail]

I'm a ninja hunter I use the electric staff subclass

[slow socket]

1

[sacred snow]

and all warlock subclasses minus stasis are strong

[slow socket]

nah 2 you right

void and strand

[sacred snow]

arc domes on void

void is ok but arc is just

[slow socket]

that’s just blatantly not true

[sacred snow]

best hunter subclass by a mile

[frigid trail]

Haven't played d2 in a min Whats the meta

[sacred snow]

i cant hear you over the sound of killing a barrier in 3 punches

[amber horizon]

But the Ego is either solar hunters (oneshotting strike bosses) or arc titans (pvp menaces)

[frigid trail]

Arc titans are scary

[sacred snow]

bro its 2023 wake up nighthawk sucks now

[slow socket]

that doesn’t make you cool that makes you a sweatlord

[amber horizon]

its not about if you are sweating its the EGO

[sacred snow]

arc hunter is just built different

[amber horizon]

cmon

[sacred snow]

cope

[frigid trail]

do i splurge 230 dollars for a 3 day pass to twitch con in vegas?

[split axle]

No need to waste

Invest in a stock

[frigid trail]

Already did did not work out

[cyan lake]

ouch

how much did you lost in stock's?

[frigid trail]

Not much

I only invested like 200

I just decided to invest for shits and giggles

[frigid trail]

I didn't really expect to make a decent return

[random skiff]

Both twitchcon and the stockmarket are pretty much just setting money on fire at this point, but at least the latter has a chance to have some future use.

[split axle]

True if you get lucky twitchcon is blindly throwing money in a hole

[frigid trail]

aye mw3 beta is on steam now

cant wait to se if its worth the 90 dollar price tag

i saw some gameplay im interested in the conversion kits

[frigid trail]

the resetti or whatever pistol from mw2 can covert into the roni from R6

[frigid trail]

Smh not even 1 game in and there's already hackers

Ps5 beta was ruined by them but its harder to hack on ps5/ps4 because on pc all yoh gotta do is go to gethub link pay a guy 20$ and boom hacks

[amber horizon]

and this is why i'm never playing any more cods

they are the same thing and even if they arent, hackers ruin it

and 90 dollars? thats a joke

[frigid trail]

That's just to pre order it

The deluxe is 130

I'm honestly regretting spending 90 on the pre order I might ask for a refund

It's not fun when your getting wall hacked or aimbotted it's sad thst this is happening in the beta to

[frigid trail]

That's for the standard edition

With tax I payed close to 100

[amber horizon]

thats so dumb

genuine money grubbing

[frigid trail]

I checked my reciet it was 105.08

I stopped playing cod after mw 2019

I uninstalled and am gonna ask for a refund since i pre ordered through steam

In the states it's probably cheaper as thier dollar is less then ours

But not by much I imagine

I still can't believe somegames that are over 4 years old are still 69.99 or 79.99

[split axle]

FromSoftware

Sekiri Being at that price is something understandable games like MW2 is not

[sacred snow]

Colossal hot take here but ill buy mw3 remake if the zombie is good

I was a big fan of outbreak in cold war and also think that og mw3 is the best out of the old trilogy so this literally cannot go wrong

Scummy company whatever,shit is gonna break sales record for like the first whole month,cod cycle cannot be break because cod fans are literal sheeps

Vanguard(allegedly the worst selling cod ever) still topped charts back when it first released so it really puts into perspective on how consumerism is for this franchise

And ATVI is basically showing us their hand here,all those old maps and cancel sliding are only here because they are actually desperately trying to sell mw2022 people a 70-90 dollar dlc

[upper crag]

only game i brought full price right away was spider man 2 idk about mw3 yet im try beta this weekend see wassup

[upper crag]

Bro i have so much fun and good memories of OG mw3 I highly doubly this mw3 will have the same experience

[sacred snow]

sure but like the old saying:third time's a charm

mw2022 wasn't that bad with the gunplay and all,i just think what happened to it was unjust and greedy af

[upper crag]

Agreed they scraped it off so fast what the hell

thought it was goign be a 2 year thing or something

[hollow cairn]

How many here play GTFO? I guess most Division 2 players would cry if they saw the mission fail ratio in that game. lmao (Of the hundreds of thousands of players that have picked up GTFO this year, only 0.541% have completed GTFO's first Rundown, That number gets even smaller when we look at GTFO's second Rundown, titled "Infection," with less than 0.1% of players completing all expeditions. For Rundown three, "The Vessel," that number sits at 0.324%, and Rundown four, "Contact," is again less than 0.1%.)

[amber horizon]

GTFO and Div2 are very different games, with very different mechanics

now can you not try to incite fights?

[frigid trail]

Woo-hoo steam refunded my money

Took em lomg enough over 9 hours of waiting for a confirmation email from them saying I was refunded

[hollow cairn]

The biggest problem with Div 2 players is that they want matchmaking and now that they got it in Incursion, and now many complain that they get in bad groups and fail. That is the reality of matchmaking, if you want a well-coordinated team with a mic, matchmaking usually does not work optimally.

[umbral lake]

https://twitter.com/midwestern_ope/status/1712866126823129255?t=sUkF97KGs1lpzTM2W0HufA&s=19

@amber horizon

[sacred snow]

thats just 80% of pve games tbf

destiny 2 players want ingame matchmaking for raids and then fumbles at every possible attempt at it
see:guided games raid

80% of mm people just wants to be carried

the people that wipes once,uses a crappy build that fails the dps check at Wright and leave instantly blaming it on everyone?

that exact player exists in every coop pve game

you dont see that in harder pve games like GTFO because its just so hard people who are...."casuals" dont wanna play it

[split axle]

That player is using the YT meta build

[sacred snow]

THE OUROBOROS EXURO ALL BLUE BUILD

900 OUROBILLION DPS

[split axle]

900only lmao

[sacred snow]

the status effect st elmo pve cc player

[grand anvil]

I really wish they could give the Chamaleon some love... I really like that gun, but it is so trash that makes me sad... =/

[hollow cairn]

And GTFO missions take about 1.5 to 2 hours and if everyone in the team dies, you have to start from the beginning. there are no checkpoints. I like playing such games because I have a lot of patience.

[wicked egret]

it really isn't trash tho

[grand anvil]

Yes, it is. Along with Eagle Bearer. Two trash guns that need more love from Ubi.

[wicked egret]

when the buffs are up it is an absolute monster

[grand anvil]

Too bad you will have to burn through so much ammo to get it for just a while. With almost no precision for a AR and having such low dmg. Sometimes, it even feels like you are using an airsoft gun against your enemies. And Eagle Bearer now has such an useless talent. Man, the exotics in the Division 2 are really bad. If at least we could unfold the stock in the Ouroboros (which also has an useless talent with the only saving grace being its rate of fire)...

[slow socket]

i actually agree, i hate the way the stock is folded to the side. it looks so bad

[fiery ravine]

Ah the Division 2 community... they make very good screenshots, but get terribly angry about players not having the builds the exact way they want them. can anybody explain why people like that exist in a game like the division 2? why is it, that I get yelled at for having a build that keeps me alive and does damage, by a guy who takes command randomly and dies first every single round? give me a break.

[sour moon]

That moment when my phones mobile data has higher speeds than my pc's wifi

[rain dove]

Few reasons that can be the case. Either you're not doing the damage to protect your teammates (killing super slowly) or they are just bad. Either way you're being mocked for the build because it is proven to be worse in damage. It doesn't matter how often you survive if you're not doing damage and screwing your team over in the process

TL;DR either you're the skill issue or they're the skill issue; only one side has numbers to back it up

I'm not saying the numbers dictate it, I'm just saying they exist

[upper crag]

The harsh truth

[frigid trail]

Bruh why dose the Chinese version of apex legends mobile have better skins then the main game 💀

I swear apex needs to take a page out of Chinese apex mobiles book

Give us better skins apex

[amber horizon]

Afaik the chinese version is not developed by the same team

[cyan lake]

i mean somehow the chinese team make cooler skin then apex here

from what i'm seeing these message's

[summer jetty]

hi any mod here?

[timber coral]

[summer jetty]

hi @timber coral i got a problem on my nexus appearel caches reward "when i completing all appearel nexus caches" it didnt gave whole set the "power bank uniform"

[timber coral]

Yea, seems like it's a bug. The devs should be aware of this, pretty sure they are already working on a fix. 😄

[vestal furnace]

Hey guys, just wanted to ask, what is the division heartland exactly? Is it like a new DLC for div 2 or like another game?

[summer jetty]

ok thank GOD i was worried @timber coral thank you i submit a ticket on ubisoft support page want to resolve the issue

[timber coral]

It's a new standalone game within the Division universe.

[vestal furnace]

wow, that's a pog. I hope it's gonna be worth the waiting for like 3 years now

thanks btw

[prisma vector]

Hello guys! At the moment the Division 2 is playable w Reshade?

[rain dove]

No

[cobalt urchin]

iv e been told there are vc rooms on this discord how do i gain access to those?

[amber horizon]

There are not, not anymore.

[cobalt urchin]

copy

[wind oar]

My roommate is religious, thing is, I'm of the same religion but I don't practice anymore, and he wants me to move my stuff that's below his altar that's placed on a shelf on a cupboard. How do I approach this, since he expects me to share the same way of thinking?
I'm terrible at confrontations, lol. I need your help, fellow agents

I need a way to explain that I'm not that religious anymore, and that i'm not disrespecting his beliefs by having my stuff there.

[amber horizon]

do you have seperate rooms? if you do, ask him if he can move his altar to his own space.

[wind oar]

No, we share the room.

And there's no space where I could comfortably put my stuff.

elsewhere.

[amber horizon]

"hey, look man, i understand you take your religion seriously but i have to have a place to put my things, can we come to an agreement?"

just take out anything that doesnt sound like you and sub it for some stuff that you'd say, and you should be golden

sharing a room is almost never an easy time, especially a room with limited space like dorm rooms

[wind oar]

Yeah, it's only been 3 weeks, and i've noticed this guy has a habit of bringing things up only when it's really about to explode off of his head.

So i'm trying to handle this carefully.

[amber horizon]

when i shared a room i'd politely ask if me and the people i was sharing a room with could come to an agreement on stuff, i tried to never be "that guy" who just did stuff or got mad about stuff without saying anything

[wind oar]

Hmm

[amber horizon]

if possible you might need to find a space that a small shelving unit can go and just set that up as storage for yourself. probably not the greatest way of solving the problem but still a solution

[wind oar]

Yea

Appreciate the time.

[amber horizon]

yea no problem, gotta do something while sitting in val queue

[wind oar]

Heh. True.

Man, discord is such a blinking heaven for my social anxiety.

[sonic mango]

I collected all the items from the box, but I was not given a reward for completing all the collections. Am I the only one having this problem? And when will it be fixed?

[frigid trail]

Ur not the only 1

[amber horizon]

you arent the only one, and it is being investigated

[frigid trail]

Most people are in the same situation as you

[amber horizon]

come back in a few days and ask the same question

[sonic mango]

Ok. TNX

[amber horizon]

[frigid trail]

So is Starfield worth playing ?

[late vine]

From what I've heard it is very much just Fallout 4 in space - so if you like fallout 4, and you like space, then yes. Personally I'm probably going to give it a couple of years and get it on sale with dlcs (but that's my approach to most games).

[frigid trail]

I heard great things about it

[frigid trail]

assassins creed is going witchcraft

new AC game is called assassins creed hexe

its in devolpment

its gonna launch after assassin creed: code name red

[split axle]

So no assassins creed Japan

[frigid trail]

Assassins creed red is apparently going to the fudel Japan era

We will get to play as a assassin and a ninja

In hexe we will play as a female and apperantly hexe will involve witchcraft black magic and Satanism

Red is coming out next year and I assume hexe will come out October of 2024

[reef wing]

I played it for like 7 hours, but I uninstalled it because I legit have no time to even continue it. Plus I saved up myself space lol. The games good/okay, but that's more one and done, I'm just saying coming from me

[sacred snow]

Mobile game iirc

@timber coral hey i have question i have an image proof nexus appearel outfit caches

[frigid trail]

Holy this series on YT is so good

It's called helluva boss

[rain dove]

heard of it

[frigid trail]

I'm only on S1:ep2 but so far very well animated voice acting is good

Not a fan of the southern accent girl though

My tattoo artist recommended it to me so while he's doing my forearm I have headphones in and am watching it

Feels weird to type with okmu 1 hand available

[frigid trail]

Back from my tattoo my arm is sore

Outline was the worse part coloring was not as bad

[midnight grotto]

What are you getting on your forearm

[frigid trail]

I got a bloody cross

Went for a realistic approach

[warm stirrup]

wanana bang wananana bang bang

@warm stirrup Going to need you to clarify what that means.

Somehow for me where I live it's 28°C at night somehow

[rain dove]

Lucky

[fiery ravine]

I think it's song lyrics.

[frigid trail]

Fun fact the new AC game is linked to vallhalla

The lore confirms it

Basim later appears in valhalla

[random skiff]

Aren't all the games in the series linked?

[frigid trail]

I don't believe so

[random skiff]

I've played pretty much all of them except for Mirage and the mobile ones and there's repeated characters in them all so far.

A good example is the main characters of 3, Rogue, and 4; being direct relatives of each other.

[frigid trail]

Mirages ending is confusing I won't spoil but you need to Google the ending for it to make sense

I played through the whole game listened tk everything and even I was confused at the ending

[random skiff]

I'll avoid looking it up for now, but it's going to have to work hard to bypass the ending to Odyssey.
||where your char is still alive in modern times and then dies, meaning they potentially met Desmond too. ||

[frigid trail]

I will say it dose link to oddessy well the tech is the same in oddessy

[random skiff]

There's a single continuous storyline going back to AC1 through all games, so all are linked.

[frigid trail]

Even the psp games and mobile games?

[random skiff]

Give me their names and I can tell you.

[frigid trail]

Desmond/ezio best assassins creeds change my mind

Black flag is 2nd

[frigid trail]

Bloodlines for psp

[random skiff]

Direct sequel to 1.

[frigid trail]

Chronicles?

I feel like chronicles doesn't like to any other games

[random skiff]

same universe, different story, AFAIK.

Like how Freedom's Cry and Rogue and a character's story that we didn't see before.

[frigid trail]

I hear the next assassin creed is gonna set in fudeal era Japan and the 1 after that is gonna be witchcraft/voodoo and potentially some Satanism

[frigid trail]

I liked rogue I liked the idea of an assassin going rogue after he finds out what thr assassin's are planning

Though I hated killing hope :/

[frigid trail]

Got free gamer supps😎

Caffeine addiction, we can only assume.

[rain dove]

Yikes

[sullen gull]

Yoooo. I am looking for somebody to do a Division in game rp with me just for fun. If you want just hit me with a dm

[frigid trail]

nah just wanted to see if its worth the hype

i see it promoted everywhere

its only samples small packets not full tubs

i aint paying 40 for a tub

[amber horizon]

I can vouch for a few flavors. The tubs lasted me about a month, so the 40$ was well worth it. 2 drinks a day vs an energy drink a day, an energy drink costs like 3 dollars where i am... yeah, worth it.

40$ for a month of energy drinks (or more if you drink less than i do) vs 90 dollars for an energy drink a day for a month

Now you gotta throw in the delivery cost but even then its still worth it

[frigid trail]

i got the free sample pack

if i like the flavors ill maybe consider buying a tub

[amber horizon]

They have a ton of flavors and i've tried a few. Guacamole Gamer Fart is just Baja Blast without the fizz, Blue is... blue.

[frigid trail]

i heard grampas ashes was a good flavor

dont know why a flavor is named that

[amber horizon]

Gamersupps collabs with a bunch of content creators. I think that one is the Goon's flavor

[frigid trail]

smii7y just got sponsered by them

ive tried gfuel but havent had a tub of it in about a year

[amber horizon]

I've been wanting to try Grandpa's Ashes and JFJ Brand Snake Oil, but havent had the time to go and order.

[frigid trail]

a buddy of mine tried grampas ashes he said it was 1 of the better flavors

[amber horizon]

I've atleast enjoyed most of the flavors i've tried. guacamole gamer fart i've grabbed like 3 tubs of. I'm a sucker for Baja Blast, what can i say.

baja blast is so good i had the mtn dew 1

[amber horizon]

Baja blast is mountain dew, yea

[frigid trail]

never had the 1s from taco bell

[amber horizon]

....its the same, dude

Taco bell had an exclusivity contract for awhile for baja blast

[frigid trail]

they have a limited edition year 3000 coke flavor i wanna try

or whatever its called

[amber horizon]

I just remember back in 2018/2019 they actually made Baja Blast available at other places, and in normal cans. Still has the "Taco Bell Original" on the can, probably due to the old taco bell exclusivity campaign

[frigid trail]

i hear this November there bringing back halo 3 mtn dew cases

Drinking energy drink everyday doesn’t sound like a bright idea

[amber horizon]

L thanh opinion

[rain dove]

caffeine bad

[amber horizon]

you can say its bad all you want, i'm not really capable of stopping

[rain dove]

thats.... bad

i used to have a really bad caffeine addiction

so i just stopped

[sacred snow]

I know someone who stays up late and drinks energy stuff daily

Bro looks like an actual zombie

I dont think he’ll make it past 30

Coffee though

[amber horizon]

I have too much i need to do, and i've been trying to not do a full energy drink every day- just a can of soda or two. Just dont want to have a multi day headache.

[rain dove]

aspect..

the more you have the higher your tolerance is

[amber horizon]

Ok.

[rain dove]

stop taking it

[sacred snow]

You sound like symbiote spiderman rn

“I need this suit to be a better spiderman”
“I need coffee to be a better person”

Jk i drink coffee everyday

Im gonna die:D

[rain dove]

i used to be in the exact same situation. seriously, stop..

[sacred snow]

I mean i dont drink it if i dont have class

In the morning

[rain dove]

how often is that

[sacred snow]

Currently?3 times a week

Maybe 4 if i go out with some friends

[amber horizon]

I'm aware its not good. If i stop, i will not be able to do anything for a few days at minimum. I cannot do that.

[rain dove]

youll experience withdrawal symptoms if you have it more than 2 days consecutively from my experience

aspect have you tried lowering your dosage a little at a time

thats how you prevent intense withdrawal symptoms

[amber horizon]

"just stop!" Not happening.

[rain dove]

like for a week just have half as less as you did previously

[sacred snow]

telling programmers even in uni to stop coffee is like telling disabled people to just stand up lol

Besides this coffee i have in the cafeteria

They suck big time,i take like 3 sip and the whole cup is gone

[rain dove]

coffee is fine, caffeine isnt

[amber horizon]

...are you joking?

[sacred snow]

mate its practically the same thing

[rain dove]

decaf coffee exists

[sacred snow]

L and cringe

I LOVE DYING YOUNG

🗣️🔥

ok but fr i gotta try it sometime

[rain dove]

yikes

[sacred snow]

Never heard of it before

[rain dove]

youve never heard of decaf? lol

[amber horizon]

Look, i appreciate you trying to look out for people's health and all, but "lol just stop being addicted!" doesnt help

[rain dove]

im trying to provide advice on how to do so

tapering off of it helps a lot

[amber horizon]

Yeah, no.

[rain dove]

?

[sacred snow]

Does decaf at least work the same as normal coffee

Like caffein is the reason why coffee works

[rain dove]

idk ive never had coffee :p

not a fan of flavoured drinks

[sacred snow]

Did you consume like,raw caffein before

[rain dove]

what

[frigid trail]

Since when did off topic turn into medical advice?

[rain dove]

anyways moving on

[frigid trail]

Anyone going to see the new FNAF movie coming out soon?

[sacred snow]

Half expecting it to be awful

They make caffeine pills, called Stay Awake and Jet Alert it says on bottle equal to "about" a cup of coffee.

I have adhd so i live on caffeine. Can't stand coffee unless its cold and black in ice. No idea why.

[sacred snow]

Warm/hot coffees are cringe

You can even refill the ice coffee cup with water for a complimentary cup of iced water

[random skiff]

Y'all need water.

[sacred snow]

i have plenty for a day

[sour moon]

Lol that moment when your plane departs 20 mins late but lands 2 mins early

[split axle]

Water is life

[fallow chasm]

Can I get server mod to PM me please, I have a server question.

[lethal plank]

what up? also you can DM the mod mail bot

[neat merlin]

Water is very essential. But water don't always have pH and don't always have electrolytes, sometimes it won't have either. Very important to know where you're getting your water. pH and electrolytes both very essential for our organs.

[rain dove]

Ngl I just drink water

Fancy water tastes awful

[sacred snow]

i drink like 2 bottles of water a day

[rain dove]

Also it has to have pH to exist

Unless I'm missing something

[sacred snow]

my mom always talk to me about how important good water is,ph,etc

look,if its drinkable and i dont die from it

[rain dove]

It's unnecessary

[sacred snow]

ill drink it,its not like im drinking piss

[rain dove]

Healthy but unnecessary

It's mostly the minerals that matter tbh

[late vine]

yeah, pH is not a nutrient, it's a measure of acidity, all water has some level of pH (usually 7, neutral)

[rain dove]

Yeah, all liquids have pH

[tranquil spade]

selamlar türk var mı ?

[frigid trail]

Bruh why is everything so pricey nowadays 2 boxes of candy was 30$

[modest pebble]

I love how autistic the water PH discussion is. Electrolytes are important but bruh we really talking about PH level of fucking water

[neat merlin]

Fancy water isn't always good either. They just have fancy name brands sometimes. And to be more specific on pH, there's lvl amount of how good and bad the pH is. Just bc its water doesn't mean its safe pH. There's flavored water, that has zero pH. There are some fake water unfortunately. But yes, real water will most definitely have at least good pH as well electrolytes.

[neat merlin]

I will always bring up when water brought up bc too many ppl do not know it is just as important than anything else. 🙃 srry

[neat merlin]

Smh no they don't but its ok.

[neat merlin]

Never said it was, it is very essentially bc it helps your organs in so many ways. Wayyyy too many don't know about this....

[modest pebble]

caring about PH is the deinfition of using studies in the wrong way.
many dont know because its a very useless topic and unimpactful

no one is gonna care if it affects them in a 0.001% way.

[frozen sparrow]

“water that has zero pH”
THIS WATER IS PURE
PURE ACID

[neat merlin]

Hey, drink what you will. Take it or leave it. Opinions are not facts. Srry yall hate it but honestly was being helpful and seemingly it was apparent offensive so I extremely apologize.

[modest pebble]

its a fact that wayter PH levels effects you sure, but how much does that actually effect you?

tiny, extremely tiny effects.

again using studies in the wrong way. Yes studies have shown that PH can effect bodily function but you have to now take that and apply it to real life

your skipping that second part

caring about PH is hyperfixating on statistics and theoritcal studies

hence why i called it autistic (that wasnt meant to be a insult)

[neat merlin]

Disinformation doesn't really work well trying to manipulate facts but good try.

Srry yall got big mad over pH water. Like that's sad.

[modest pebble]

no ones mad lol

[modest pebble]

its not manipulating facts, its simple interpreting them instead of taking them at face value

[rain dove]

Link them

[late vine]

it's all about that base

[modest pebble]

https://jissn.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12970-016-0153-8

"A significant difference in whole blood viscosity was detected in this study when assessing a high-pH, electrolyte water versus an acceptable standard purified water during the recovery phase following strenuous exercise-induced dehydration."

thats really all you need to read

thats in the context of exercise

there was no ak variant it just had the ak appearance

hi

[fiery ravine]

If Massive ever wants somebody to throw some vehicle ideas their way, and if they want more misc details for them, then I'm the guy.

I mean, what the hell is the deal with the police cars? they are just reskined civilian vehicles with a lightbar added ontop.

taxis don't have a taximeter or a divider. if we're gonna get into the police cars......

let's just say, no cop would be able to do their jobs with the lack of any policing equipment inside. no wonder the JTF in DC fell. they didn't have ANY communications or any electronic systems like patrol laptops in any cruiser.

hell, the JTF standing around the white house don't have radios, cuffs or hell, even Body Armor. those guys are lucky they didn't get picked off by the BTSU earlier!

[sacred snow]

thru sheer plot armor did the black tusk not take over DC in the 10 minutes we were absent

[opal jetty]

btw when did we get a bunch of BTSU shields and a lot of bullet holes in the White House? i kinda missed that

[fiery ravine]

during the BTSU's assault on the BoO

[opal jetty]

and when did that happen

[fiery ravine]

... Sigh

[opal jetty]

sorry i forgot:(

[fiery ravine]

stovepipe manhunt.

[opal jetty]

oh, i was not around for that 😔

[fiery ravine]

also, we have a ton of BTSU gear on the lawn and in the BoO. you'd think we could reverse engineer some of that stuff. especially the damn Razorback sitting on the white house lawn.

[opal jetty]

okay, what's a Razorback?

[fiery ravine]

Play the game, and you'll find out.

WONY and the Dark Hours Raid have the razorback as a target to take care of.

[opal jetty]

is it the giant BTSU quadcopter?

[fiery ravine]

so I'd start there.

[fiery ravine]

... that's a marauder.

[opal jetty]

😔 sorry for not remembering all the enemies

[fiery ravine]

you're not forgiven 💢 😡

[opal jetty]

aaand i cant access WONY or dark horse to check the enemy, riight

[rain dove]

Have you played dark hours before

[opal jetty]

no :(

[rain dove]

Have you beaten the dlc

[opal jetty]

2 years ago so dont remember almost anything

[rain dove]

Did you do the uhh

Season 11 manhunt

[opal jetty]

only the final mission with stovepipe because wasnt around for that

[rain dove]

So no

Yeah can't explain what razorback is without spoilers then

[opal jetty]

i'll never get to dark hours anyway ;(

Is it a problem when the right side of your jaw hurts for a extended period of time?

[modest pebble]

how old are you?

my first thought would be wisdom teeth if your under 18

[frigid trail]

Getting ur wisdom teeth pulled sucks

I had mine pulled when I was 19

[proper lodge]

27 y.o. Wisdom teeth are gone.

[frigid trail]

When I got my wisdom teeth pulled I was so out of it especially when the pain meds kicked in

Only thing that sucked was I could eat only a few things

For like 2 weeks

I didn't even talk for the first 3 days cause my mouth as so sore

[upper crag]

I had two pulled out it was the worse i had take narcotics to help with the pain barely.... could eat... Same i couldnt talk for 3-4 days shit sucked

[frigid trail]

It hurt to move my mouth

After a week the pain and soreness decreased but was still there

During the 2nd week I could eat some things besides liquid by the end of the 2 weeks I could eat all the food again and the pain went away with only very minor soreness in my mouth remaining but after a day it went away as well

Only being able to drink liquids sucked I couldn't enjoy pizza sweets or junk food

[frigid trail]

I had all of mine pulled

[proper lodge]

I think the cause of my jaw pain is because I ground my teeth too much.

I know it isn't a tooth infection.

Would painkillers help ease the dull aches?

[dire zodiac]

Look up TMJ, but normal over the counter pain killers would work.

[proper lodge]

Alright, cheers.

[dry island]

i got kind of a wierd question: I realy like the design of the Ninja Bike backpack and would like to own one IRL, but i cant find anything like it. Does anyone know what the base for the in game model was?

[modest pebble]

Send me a screen shot if it. Can probably figure it out

[frigid trail]

Why do 90s cartoons and commercials hit different

[limber karma]

Are there any veterinarians on here i have a question about a recently born kitten.

So basically past few days she/he has developed a crusty eye slightly puffy and struggles to open it upon doing some research i believe it to be a URTI or conjunctivitis i have been following some guidance of cleaning it out with cotton and distilled water to some improvement but the crust still continues to matt her her shut.

Someone told me about a eye gel called Terramycin my question being is this something a Veterinarian would prescribe and how effective is it thanks

[frigid trail]

It is very effective and reliable

It's a good alternative to surgery

I've used it a couple times on my cat and it seemed to work

It's a effective antibiotic

[frigid trail]

I'd recommend it

Though idk the dose to give to a kitten as my cat is a grown adult

I'm not a vet but I'm somewhat knowledgeable in this field

[limber karma]

@frigid trail thankyou her eye isnt that bad it needs surgery very similar to when people get allergies like hayfever etc just watery and crusty from when it dries but thankyou handy to know its familiar to someone else

The vet clinics out here dont care about some simple genuine advice over the phone all they want is the money for a visit $70 i dont see the point in spending that for them to tell me to buy the same Terramycin which is around $25

[frigid trail]

Just try to look up what the right amount to give to a kitten is

[limber karma]

Yea saw one video on YouTube was literally half a little finger nails worth there only 2.5 weeks old so their eyes arent very big

[frigid trail]

Yay my motorcycle helmet is now a cow 🐄

Guys, I just received a household survey, and I'm wondering if I should fill it up because I share this house with around 20 other people.

Will I be in any problems with the landlord or law?

[rain dove]

That depends on the country mate

[random skiff]

Are all the people there like, registered to live there?

because in my country, anyone over 18 needs to be on the lease.

[wind oar]

Ireland

[rain dove]

I don't think anyone here would be able to answer that for you

[wind oar]

I think so, I haven't asked around, but most of them work and have visas and rights to work and live here so..

[random skiff]

its not about rights to work, in some countries you literally need to be on the lease.

[wind oar]

There's no lease agreement.

[random skiff]

wait, so youre just squatting?

[wind oar]

:/

[wind oar]

I do not know the definition of that word, but yes, it appears so.

[random skiff]

Yeah you might want to ask someone who would know and could give you the right answer.

[wind oar]

Thing is, when the guy called, I was like.. Oh shit, do I say 20 people live here, or a believable number like 5?

I said 5, and he sent me 5 copies of the survey to fill out, and now - I gotta hand them out to different people and they'll probably just dump it somewhere, but I'm thinking of just filling out my own and sending it back to them. Or I'll just ignore them and enjoy the 10 Euros. Lol.

[rain dove]

So you lied to your landlord 😬

[random skiff]

There is no actual landlord as their is no lease.
So they lied to the person whose house 20 people are staying in that the person owning it just doesn't know about...I think?

This is starting to sound made up.

[rain dove]

the person owning it is the landlord no?

[wind oar]

No, I lied to the surveyor.

[rain dove]

if im understanding correctly thats really bad

[wind oar]

Well, I panicked. 🤷🏻‍♂️ It's my first time sharing a house, I have no clue what's allowed or not.

New country, too.

[wind oar]

No, lol. I was referring to the person who called to ask me about the household I'm living in.

Okay, just looked up the term squatting, and no, I am not doing that.

I pay rent, and so do the rest of us occupying this space.

Hey @polar ibex, do you think you could check your friend requests? I'd like to inquire you about something but your DMs are closed.

This time I was in a burning building filled with enough smoke to kill a whole forest of bees.

Recurrent dreams suggest you've got something weighing on your mind, an anxiety or similar

[timber coral]

I dreamt I was back home, at the flat we used to live in. My mom was there and one of our cats that dies a couple years ago and a ghost, telling me to "Get out". No idea if it was an evil spirit or not but I assume it was, since it told me to leave.

[sour moon]

Obviously none of my buses come for the next half hour and debating on whether or not to walk home in 3° weather

am i the only 1 who plays with thier keyboard sideways?\

[amber horizon]

no, a lot of pro players of games do weird stuff with their keyboards, so its probable that others will do even weirder things

[random skiff]

Some kid I knew in High School would do that and also hold a controller sidewards too.
I didn't realise it was a thing.

[frigid trail]

my keyboard is massive

its a msi gaming

[amber horizon]

cool

i've been using a steelseries apex 7 for like 2 years now, which isnt small by any means

[frigid trail]

i want to get a smaller keyboard

[amber horizon]

Then get a smaller keyboard.

[frigid trail]

idk which to get there are so many options

[random skiff]

Do you like mechanical or membrane switches?

aka: noisy or silent.

[amber horizon]

mech are generally better, membrane just feels... ick

[frigid trail]

well when im playing with friends/randoms i dont want them to hear my keyboard

[amber horizon]

you can get silent mech switches

[frigid trail]

im thinking of the hypeX x alloy orgins 60

[amber horizon]

its a 60% keyboard, its got mechanical switches, looks fine enough

congratz you found your keyboard, next

[random skiff]

needless to say, wait for Black Friday sales.

[frigid trail]

oh true

[random skiff]

and make sure they're actually sales and not previously raised prices.

[frigid trail]

or cyber monday?

[random skiff]

most stores just have a big sale on all long weekend

[amber horizon]

cyber monday is just an extention of black friday to continue the sales- they are the same thing

[random skiff]

Comp store near me just kinda got bored with combo'ing the sales and just put everything on sale from Black Friday until New Years Day.
I can respect the "ah screw it" attitude.

[frigid trail]

black friday can get pretty hectic

[rain dove]

@willow idol what dslr do you have

i have one too lol

[willow idol]

D5100

[rain dove]

nikon?

[willow idol]

Yeah, I mostly use it on motorcycle tours anymore tho. I used to do some street photography when I lived in Jacksonville Florida but now I'm in the boonies in Pa.

[rain dove]

what kind of lens do you use

wide zoom or telephoto

[willow idol]

I've got a few but mostly a common one 35-55 forget the rest of the stats on it.

[rain dove]

rest isnt that important lol

i did photography a bit last year

so i have my own dslr

[willow idol]

Oh I've also done some light painting cause it's cool.

[rain dove]

oooo

i did more nature photography, i even got a really lovely picture of a fox up-close

[willow idol]

Yeah I've gotten some good landscape stuff of sunsets at the beach in Florida and of the mountains where I'll ride in a bunch of different states.

[rain dove]

do you have lens filters

[rain dove]

if you dont have a circular polarizer you should definitely get one

[willow idol]

I've wanted some polarized ones cause it really helps with the contrast of the sky. I just don't use it as much anymore so dropping money for it doesn't make sense ya know.

[rain dove]

guess so lol

[willow idol]

It bed time yo

[sacred snow]

bit late to this but you should be sure that the keyboard fits your need

i currently have a 60% keyboard and now i need a new one despite the current one being pretty good for me because it doesn't have the function keys on top which i need for some coding stuff and i dont like reaching my hand to the laptop's keyboard

[split axle]

Lol I use laptop keyboard

[sacred snow]

I mean im not like an insane keyboard bro who would spend a shitload of money on a custom keyboard

I can cope with a laptop keyboard but typing with a separate keyboard just feels better.
Also i usually have a 2nd screen so the way i position my laptop and the 2nd screen requires me to have a keyboard

[split axle]

Yeah I can understand

For me it is about feel I have been using mine for like 4 years and I still don't like any other keyboard

[frigid trail]

I swear kids be doing anything for nitro 💀

[split axle]

Lol 😂

[rain dove]

no

if you want a good keyboard dont go logitech, razer, hyperx, redragon, corsair, any name brand

[random skiff]

in fact buy no brand at all, make one out of rocks and some twine.

make sure you get a slightly longer rock for space-bar.

[rain dove]

no just get one from like keychron or something which is an actually good brand

[modest pebble]

Yea build a key cult there better 🔥

[rain dove]

?

[modest pebble]

Don’t know what a key cult is?

[modest pebble]

Or leopold

[rain dove]

leopold is meh

dont suggest soldered boards to regular people

[random skiff]

but how else am I going to bind the rocks and twine together?

[modest pebble]

They have full built ones

[rain dove]

hotswap ymean?

[modest pebble]

No

[rain dove]

barebone?

[modest pebble]

If your not an enthusiast there’s really no reason to get a hot swap board. Leopold comes full built, switches caps etc

[rain dove]

whats the switch choice though .-.

[modest pebble]

Build quality is very nice. Keycaps are similar to ePBT etc. switches are typically cherry, gateron or topre

[rain dove]

yeah so youre kinda stuck to bad switches

unless they offer gat yellows

then they offer one good linear switch and no good tactile/clicky

[modest pebble]

Most people will be happy with gateron milk yellows or cherry hyperglides

[rain dove]

what are the stabs like though

and how is it mounted

[modest pebble]

Stabs are cherry, it’s just normal hard mount

[rain dove]

so bad

these are all the reasons i suggest keychron over anything else

case mount is just bad

[modest pebble]

Your forgetting that stabs are all about sound, mounting is all about placebo, switches are about sound. People who aren’t enthusiasts really don’t care about sound or mounting styles

[random skiff]

Just fyi, this conversation is exactly why people don't like keyboard enthusiasts.

[rain dove]

mounting is all about placebo

what

[random skiff]

I'm enjoying being totally confused by all this though, please go on.

[rain dove]

Your forgetting that stabs are all about sound

to an extent

[modest pebble]

Leopold is well built feels nice and costs 100 bucks. That’s what none enthusiasts care about

[modest pebble]

You can’t seriously think a gasket mount acutally makes a difference in day to day typing

[rain dove]

keychron is well build feels nice has open source firmware and swappable switches, better stabs and easier to customize, and costs 100 bucks. its literally what non enthusiasts and enthusiasts care about

why would you purposefully opt for the worse model

[modest pebble]

The cheaper keychrons use the same mounting style as leopold. They come with the same switches, stabs are also just cheery stabs lol. Only thing that keychrons does over leopold is hotswap. Keychrons keycaps are also pretty shit

My point was never leopold > keychron

My point was both are pretty nice for a none enthusiast

It’s like recommding a EK civic to a commuter who knows nothing about cars cuz it’s more tunable then a newer civic

[rain dove]

not anymore

the V series is better than the K series

[modest pebble]

In the way that there’s foam and silicone pad

Your still using cherry screws in lol

[rain dove]

leopold used plate mount last i checked

the stabs

[modest pebble]

Either way no one outside of enthusiasts cares about stabs, mounting styles and sound quality. My point was leopold is extremely well built in the areas that none enthusiasts care about for a decent price

I don’t really care about focusing on enthusiast features for a none enthusiasts

[rain dove]

but you can get better so why would you purposefully opt for something worse with no actual reason

[modest pebble]

Also software is a major reason to get “gaming” keyboards. QMK is good but g hub, razor etc are just easier to use

[modest pebble]

Because the better means nothing because the better features are something the user will never see

The things that are better about the leopold are things the user will see

[rain dove]

so just blow money for less features because you wont use the features? thats not a sensical logic

[rain dove]

such as?

[modest pebble]

Keycaps, external build and feel

[rain dove]

how are you comparing the keycaps exactly

"feel" is in no world an objective measurement

[modest pebble]

Based off feel and quality of manufacturing

[modest pebble]

Man this whole hobby is feel dawg

[rain dove]

then youre contradicting yourself

[modest pebble]

What switch is better? Feels better. What mounting style is better? Gasket feels better. What Keycaps are better? These feel better

[rain dove]

youre saying the stabs dont matter because theyll never see it then saying the keycaps matter even though theyll never see it

?????\

[modest pebble]

What?

“The things that are better about the leopold are things the user will see”

“Such as”

And I said Keycaps.

That would equal. Keycaps are something the user will see

[rain dove]

the user will only see the colour of them

which isnt relevant at all

[modest pebble]

They will also feel them?

[rain dove]

now we're back onto the contradiction

the user feels everything

[random skiff]

We remaining civil?

[rain dove]

im just doing my math homework*

[modest pebble]

Eevee this is entirely pointless. Dude just wants a board that works. Keychain is an option, leopold in an option, even gaming boards are an option gate keeping to only to enthusiasts boards with enthusiasts features is pointless

[rain dove]

*im not actually doing all of it

[modest pebble]

The user doesn’t feel the difference in stabs

Lol

[rain dove]

by your definition, the user feels everything. if they dont feel everything they dont feel anything. you cant pick and choose what makes sound and what doesn't, thats called manipulating the laws of physics

[rain dove]

ok my math homework is seriously a waste of time im gonna play div instead

[modest pebble]

What? I’m saying the user doesn’t really care about stabs. Where did laws of physics come into this

[rain dove]

you didnt say they dont care you said they dont feel it

which is a blatant lie

[modest pebble]

No one mechanically feels the difference in stabs dude

It’s a sound Thing

[rain dove]

nobody mechanically feels the difference in keycaps either whats your point

[modest pebble]

Then why not type on the bare stems

Lol

[rain dove]

whats your point

[modest pebble]

Difference in Keycaps is 100% something a normal person feels. A stabilizer is not

[rain dove]

feel in what regard

you only compared existence to non-existence, not between two types of sets

[modest pebble]

Alright let’s just agree to disagree we aren’t gonna go anywhere. I get the keyboard hobby I was in it for a very long time and I held the same opinions as you

Leaving it made me realize that most of the keyboard things are placebo

[rain dove]

and i can assure you they 100% are not placebo

[modest pebble]

Cheap ABS Keycaps vs ePBT

Can you tell which one is which?

[rain dove]

i mean what abs set are we referring to in specific

because i have an epbt set and the only good thing about it is the colour

ePBT fall specifically

[modest pebble]

Jesus dude. Corsair whatever

[rain dove]

used to use epbt GoW and hated it

[modest pebble]

Any cheap ABS set

[rain dove]

id argue cheap abs > epbt

dont like epbt

at least cheap abs doesnt fall off your stabilizers

.-.

[modest pebble]

That wasn’t the point but

[rain dove]

i know what your point was and lemme reword it like this

can you feel the difference between legos and cellophane

[modest pebble]

Yea?

[rain dove]

thats because youre comparing two plastics

well not plastics but youre comparing two entirely different materials

[modest pebble]

Lego vs Amazon 5.99 Lego. Difference can be felt

[modest pebble]

ABS and BPT are both plastics

[rain dove]

both plastics with different properties

[modest pebble]

Can’t compare 2 different types of the same material?

[rain dove]

they arent different types of the same material

plastic is a ridiculously broad term

its like comparing steel to tin because theyre both metals

[modest pebble]

They are both plastics. Yes they carry different properties but they are still plastics just like wood is still wood even tho there’s many different types

[rain dove]

but you cant compare low quality balsa to high quality oak

[modest pebble]

So your saying that. Keycaps can’t be compared because they have different chemical make ups

[rain dove]

im saying you cant compare the feel of them because they are physically different plastics yes

you cant say they are physically identical while ignoring blatant physical properties

[modest pebble]

This is done a lot btw

[rain dove]

i meant structurally

[modest pebble]

This is also done a lot

[rain dove]

you know what i mean

[split axle]

Lol

[modest pebble]

I really don’t. Saying you can’t compare 2 materials cuz they differ chemically is nonsense

[rain dove]

when in a context of preference you cant objectively compare physical properties

[split axle]

Preference is solely dependent on person

[rain dove]

so you cant say pbt is objectively better

[split axle]

PBT? Which Poly is that

[rain dove]

butylene terapthalate iirc

[modest pebble]

In terms of raw feel? Who cares about chemical make up lol

[split axle]

Yeah you are right

[rain dove]

because youre making the argument its not up to consumer taste and rather something theyll notice

[modest pebble]

Notice is cusomer taste

Feel is consumer taste

[rain dove]

but the presence of a property is not

[modest pebble]

But that’s makes them uncomparavle?

Their comparable lol

[rain dove]

the only thing they notice is the texture

[modest pebble]

Aka feel

[rain dove]

feel is more than physical

but the texture has almost nothing to do with the plastic and is primarily the production process

[split axle]

Texture is both visual and tangible

[rain dove]

that doesnt change anything lol

[modest pebble]

Ok?

That doesn’t change the fact that you can compare to sets

Saying you can’t compare 2 Keycaps sets because they differ in chemical make up and manufacturing process is just wrong

[sacred snow]

this actually depends on what you REALLY need.
gaming keyboards are made for,surprise,gaming.a brand keyboard would generally excel at actually playing games depending on the brand versus a custom keyboard at the same price range.

anything OTHER than gaming and custom beats it

[rain dove]

thats not how it works

[sacred snow]

infact if you dont even do hardcore gaming it doesn't matter

thats why people think customs are better

but thats also why esports people use branded keyboards even when streaming at home

[rain dove]

theres only one "gaming" keyboard and i forget what its called

[random skiff]

Eevee is right, and it's this one.

[rain dove]

no its some keyboard that has switches that release immediately upon drawback i forget what its called

[sacred snow]

just type it out telepathically

why need a keyboard at all

[random skiff]

Other people are using a keyboard, I'm using the ps2's eye-toy.

[sacred snow]

typewriter users😎

[random skiff]

in another decade I'll advance to the Kinect.

[rain dove]

ive considered getting a stenograph

[sacred snow]

genuinely impressive that you typed that with a ps2 controller

[sacred snow]

i have budget of around 80-90,should i get the monsgeek m1w?
a friend recommended it to me

[random skiff]

pfft, who uses a controller?
I'm just playing Wishi Washi right now.

[sacred snow]

wishiwashi the pokemon?

[random skiff]

Uh no, this is a "you just kinda have to know it" thing.

[rain dove]

i forgot that pokemon existed

kinda got cloned with tatsugiri though

[sacred snow]

being fomoed in a destiny 2 division 2 server smh

[random skiff]

you can youtube it if you really want, but you may get a very old and weird song stuck in your head.

[sacred snow]

kill me

this song does not feel real

like im in a fever dream or some shit

[random skiff]

the world of incredibly old jokey songs is a strange one.

next you're going to look up "lily the pink"

[sacred snow]

you're not my mom

[random skiff]

So help me, I will change your username.
now go clean your stash box.

[sacred snow]

try me Rainbow Rogue

[random skiff]

Nah too much paperwork.

[modest pebble]

i dont know enough about it

[sacred snow]

:(

[rain dove]

thats not 80-90

at all lol

[rain dove]

looks like just a straight up gmmk pro clone

[sacred snow]

What price do you think it is then

[rain dove]

im looking at the prices rn

cheapest i found was the barebone for 80

fully assembled seems to be $140-150 from their own site

oh no wonder its cheaper it comes with a default PC plate

and plate mount stabs

yeah its literally just a cheaper gmmk pro clone

In addition, it also comes with extra TPU Double-shot stabilizers to cater to the diverse preferences of users.

is there something im missing cuz last i checked this would never work

[shrewd hearth]

the other d2 seems to have gone a little down hill :3

[willow idol]

So what is a good keyboard? Full layout and not loud af? Don't need media keys or RGB or anything like that.

[rain dove]

Full layout you're very limited but hold on

Keychron V6 (didn't realize they made a v series in full xD)

[willow idol]

90 dollars seems a lil cheap naw?

[rain dove]

Then q6

[willow idol]

What's the major diff between them?

[rain dove]

Plate mount style primarily

But also has things like foam

[willow idol]

foamy

[shrewd hearth]

q6 weighs alot

then again it doubles as a self defence weapon so theres a bonus

my one weight 3.7 kg which is like 8.2 pounds

[cyan lake]

Well I finally finished the entire watch dogs campaign here and man was it good and now I will head to bed cause I stayed up till 3:20 am where I love so cya

[sacred snow]

Mate i can literally get a full assembled one for less than 100 here

[rain dove]

Where

UK?

[rain dove]

Yes aluminum does tend to weigh like aluminum 😎

[modest pebble]

mfw aluminum alloy

[sacred snow]

Asia

[modest pebble]

kinda sad i cant call Q series pot metal blocks anymore

[rain dove]

Ah makes a little more sense tbh

[rain dove]

Wdym

[modest pebble]

their 6063 now instead of "aluminum alloy"

which is just 75% zinc 20% all shit 3 % aluminum

[rain dove]

6063 is 98.751% aluminum

[rain dove]

Where did you get this from

[modest pebble]

i thought it was fairly obvious i was talking about aluminum alloy

i 6063 is actually aluminum

[rain dove]

I mean those percentages

[modest pebble]

Thats why i said i can no long call it a pot metal block

[modest pebble]

aluminum alloy used in other things, their not exact lol

[rain dove]

I'm looking at a chart rn of composition and it says 98.751% aluminum in aluminum alloy 6063

[modest pebble]

ues

[rain dove]

?

[modest pebble]

yes 6063 is an alloy im aware. but its an actual aluminum alloy, not the "aluminum alloy contrustion" bull shit pot metal stuff is made out of

do you not know what pot metal is lol

[rain dove]

Tbh not really lol

[modest pebble]

its just cheap ass metal

and because it has some content of aluminum in it, china companies like to call stuff made with it "aluminum alloy construction"

keychron used to be some kind of pot metal idk remember what it was actual composed of but not 6063

but that changed a long time ago

it was kinda funny cuz some of their early metal boards weighed a metric fucking ton due to being shit metal

not like metal quality really evne matters, structural integrity on a keyboard doesnt really matter
