Ordered myself my first new kb since 2012Filco TKSP set w/ cherry silent redI never liked TKL, but the included numpad sold me

>>107558411The link is not to the previous thread, but the one before that. You didn't just copy the whole text from the last OP you silly sausage?Here's the previous one: >>107517542
Is there a big difference between all the Chinese aluminum keyboards like Aula wobkey monsgeek etc? Like they are all sub $100 aluminum frame fully built with trimode connection and a little screen. Are there any definitive best ones out of those
>>107558411Nice of you to bake one, anon.
>>107560273They're all the same. Monsgeek is the least flashy of the lot.

Thoughts on this custom mod?
Just had a small panic attack, lol.Was changing out my switches and then two keys stopped worked after everything is fully assembled.I thought, okay, no biggie, probably bent feet, take them out, feet aren't bent.Okay, still no need for panic, probably broken switches, then I replace them, still doesn't work.now I'm panicking a little, I'm thinking, oh shit, did I damage the PCB?Then I pull the switches out, and...I bent the feet on the good switches, straightened them and now they work.
>>107560694autistic
>>107560700Anyway, sounds good man.https://voca.ro/17uXo2EqwnUc
>>107560700Always take the PCB out and place it on a flat, solid surface before installing your switchesALWAYS
>>107560694pubes are a nice touch
I found a 7.7 inch keyboard I am going to try out. Thanks for your help. I will post a pic when it arrives and a short review in case anyone else wonders what its like.
>>107560666I did, and thus assumed good faith (and not a deliberate goof)
Do girls like keyboards or not really
>>107558818Costar stabs plus silent switches would drive me to madness>>107559216At 312 replies so it's fine
Has anyone tried the new Keyreative KAP sets? I'd like to order the MV Classic Dark or the WoB to see how it is, but I just don't have a suitable keyboard for them.
>>107560753I'm notoriously bad at guessing what I'm hearing it sound tests but to me this sounds like long poles on foam. All I know for certain is I don't like the spacebar.
>>107561105Yea, I messed up, somehow. And I double checked.
>>107561173They do. I was surprised by how many real women were at the Toronto keyboard meetup.Almost 100% of them were Asian though. And they were greatly outnumbered by the men and trans women. Still, for a nerd hobby they were more numerous than you would think.
Will I get wide feminine hips by using a Geonworks keyboard?
>>107558411> Went to Five Below to see what they're shilling to the kids these days> They have nearly this exact keyboard with the little metal top and holders for $10lol
I hate that it's coming to this but I might actually have to filter posts containing the word "Geon"
>>107561751Chill, they are just shitposting
>>107561808Incredibly obnoxious repetitive shitposting that isn't funny and forces everyone to think about "sissies" "femboys" etc. at all times. I don't want your stupid lazy jokes. Keyboards are about aesthetics for me and this thread is aesthetically repulsive.
Gayon
Femboys have been in vogue since the time of the Romans. Geon boards balance form and function. Femboys balance the feminine and the masculine. It just fits, okay?
>>107561611I’m guessing it’s like 90% guys, 9% girls, 1% trans. No way trannys outnumber girls right?
>>107561980No I meant "guys and trannies together"
>>107560694Why not blu tack? Makes the key more dense than using foam, just don't add too much. The spring won't come back up from adding additional weight lol. I do this on "hollow" space bars; they're usually the best sounding key afterwards
>>107561847It's fairly reasonable to assume that very few posters here care about what you want. It is also reasonable to filter shit:boards.4chan.org##.replyContainer:has-text(/(Geon)\b/)boards.4chan.org##.replyContainer:has-text(/\b(geon)\b/)
>>107562541The unstated assumption of this post is that if I am complaining I must be in the wrong. Yes it's reasonable to assume some % of posters will be obnoxious. It is also reasonable to attack and shame those posters, to tell them they are unfunny, to encourage others to be hostile to them. People actually do respond to social pressure on this website, contrary to popular opinion. It's just that these pressures usually target stupid irrelevant things like "reddit spacing", rather than the thing that actually sucks which is one particular subset of "shitposting", where the least intelligent least funny posters make the same obvious zero-effort jokes over and over again. Imagine a female "comedian" doing a "muh pussy" bit, but it's a fat brown Asian guy going "muh boipussy" over and over again in the keyboard thread, and maybe you have an idea of what I mean.And I'm perfectly capable of writing a filter myself, thanks. I hesitate to do it because Geon is an important creator in keyboard world and it would actually be a huge loss to filter all posts that mention Geon products. And even if I could write the perfect filter to never see those posts again, they would still be a stain on the thread that appears to the view of all newcomers and makes us all cringe by association. It would be as though I had a ketchup stain on the front of my white shirt, and I just don't know it's there.
>>107562748(continued)You can insist on offering me 'quick and dirty' solutions to my problem, and I'm sure you can think of many ("maybe try going to a moderated community instead", etc) but there's usually a reason I haven't done any of these things. There is no simple solution to the problem of low-quality posting. The solution I'm choosing is to stop ignoring it or pretending it's acceptable. You don't need to chillax and tolerate everything. It's okay to be mad online. "Trolling" hasn't been cool since at least 2010, since it came to mean every kind of "I'm not touching you" booger-guy behavior on the internet. "I'm bothering you, therefore I win" is nonsense but most on this website are imprisoned in this mental model. You can just tell unfunny faggots that they are annoying you. You can "talk like Sephiroth". Etc.
Fell for the MX Black meme 100% all the way, and I much prefer my BCPs on PP. Bully for metafags!
Gonna type on this for a while because this fucking board makes it feel really good now that I've started using this build. God damn lol
>>107559501huh? Troonkeyboards are like 60%, that has way too many keys.
>>107562970The GODsize seething troon is still mindbroken, ignore him.
Yeah this is ridiculous. It felt a little too fast and responsive at first, probably due to the leaf-spring design that makes the plate bouncy and the keys light and crisp since they're spring-swapped. I could never get the same feeling or the same near-immediate acceptance of the alu plate on any of my Intro S100s. Even the Cycle8 falls short big time and I love that thing because it's a good board for using Xinhais and Clouds together.Seriously impressive versatility on this F1, I feel content.
>>107562970most trannys i see use full size boards now, for awhile actually
So the Evo guys did a full-size and nobody's talking about it simply because the upper-right blocker is ugly?https://divinikey.com/products/ticktype-dp104-keyboard-kit
>>107563184this is for goys
>>107563238I think it's for Chinese people and Chinese diaspora
>>107560273Get yourself a TGR Jane. TGR boards are designed by one guy for a relatively niche audience, and he's not making thousands upon thousands of them. They cost that much because they're significantly more expensive to produce per board and you'd better be okay with that, or you'll never feel good about owning it as a bespoke art piece.
>>107563470Lazy ineffectual trolling. The last post was 9 minutes before so we didn't need this bump. What's the point?
The reason why it cost this much because it's not mass produced, and its a collector's item right now. Neither typing feeling or sound acoustic make this board unique. It's purely due to the popularity of the name "Jane" from old days.... The value of Jane v2 series keeps going down these days since people realized it's really not that special other than being very limited in supplies.
>>107562748>The unstated assumption of this post is that if I am complaining I must be in the wrongHmm, no. Seeing this in terms of right and wrong seems like a hopelessly naive position to me. As is trying to attack shitposters for that matter. They are not a homogeneous hive mind; even if you might shut up some, you end up arousing others. In fact I believe that a substantial portion of shitposters ultimately seek attention, which is precisely what you're giving them by reacting, all the while shitting up the thread with off topic yourself. This is very much amplified on a anonymous platform like 4chin. But don't let me deter you, if you think it works and it's worth your time, go ahead>>107562761>You can insist...I'm little interest in insisting, I merely suggested the filters because I use those myself, and it was also my first reply to you. I filter a lot of repetitive nonsense, I think it substantially improves the 4chan experience
See now, I like to bring the opposing sides together. Reverse the polarity. Q: How do you fit a Geon onto a Jane? A: TGR Jane V2 and GMK & GEONWORKS Black Snail
Tell me you don’t appreciate TGR without telling me
I don't care much for it, no
limitless arousal indeed
>>107563499>I'm little interest in insisting, I merely suggested the filters because I use those myself, and it was also my first reply to you. I filter a lot of repetitive nonsense, I think it substantially improves the 4chan experienceI'm sure it might. But I'm not here to have an experience, I'm here to participate, to have a proper discussion in a shared environment.>In fact I believe that a substantial portion of shitposters ultimately seek attention, which is precisely what you're giving them by reactingI know the theory. I know. "If you give them attention, they win." Well if you admit this thought into your mind they have already "won" a more serious battle over you. They have erected barriers in your mind. "I can't say what I think, or they win somehow..."—who cares lol. I am completely indifferent to whether they think they won or they lost. And in this case I think this tard actually is trying and failing to be funny; inasmuch as he thinks "LOL I made someone mad" it's a transparent cope and I doubt he really believes it. If he does make himself believe this, so much the worse for him—it is a victory when your enemy is forced to defensively adopt false ideas.
>>107563570filter final boss
>excuse me, did you just purchase a Geonworks keyboard from the mechmarket?>okay, good, what's the condition? B-stock? Dinged?>flawless? Really? Okay, that's good to know.>so fucking flawlessly cute
This is what TKL troons look like vs full-size "IT'S MA'AM" ogres
No, if you're full-size, you get the chicks. If you're small size, you get cock. It's not up for debate anymore, it's reality.
fullsizetroon can never pass. tkltroons are innately better at being sissies.
What is a good 75% under 100 bucks, I was looking at Royal Kludge but reading reviews they have a lot of QC issues and they don't last a year.
>>107563810The epomaker Aula F75?I remember hearing good things about it, but I don't remember how long ago that was.
>>107563620To me this site is about entertainment. I see it as a massive trash heap, with some interesting stuff hidden in plain sight. It requires some balancing between the interesting and the uninteresting stuff. Filters improve the ratio
>>107563828>>107563810The aula f75 is good and inexpensive. has hot-swappable mechanical switches. There is one made in concert with Epomaker; which is the exact same thing except the switches to choose from are different.
I fucking hate my ducky one 3, the screws are stripped to shreds on the first disassembly.
