So after getting the Zealios switches sample yesterday, the cooler master switch tester with the novatouch topre switch came in today.
Within two minutes of getting my hands on that thing I knew that my next keyboard would be topre.
>>51808569
Anyone recommend a monitor
>>51808840
Get real Topre like a Realforce senpai. Novatouch felt like a cherry switch to me.
>>51808884
I considered the Novatouch, but the keycaps of the realforce are already absolute perfection in keycaps, and I don't have to shell out another 50 bucks for good PBT caps either.
I also prefer heavier switches, mx clear being my favorite of the cherry lineup, so I'm probably going with a 55u
good friday evening lads and lasses.
>>51808970
Fairo I got the ergoweighted 55g
>>51808569
you build amps?
>>51809000
Mind posting a picture?
I'd almost get a HHKB because the layout looks so comfy and the keyboard is just pure aesthetic, but I can't get over the lack of dedicated function keys. I need to look at more realforces in order to get over it.
>>51809001

Oh wow dude that is so fucking cool! Can you give me some advice on tinning wire? Mine's always shitty and it don't stick!
Why am I so Damn comfy?
>>51809080
wow that was vert rude and uncalled for. If you're going to be so obtuse, then you best take your leave.
i've yet to clean and finish it tho. New chair and shit incoming

Use more heat. Use more tin. Use more time.

>>51811063
That setup us pretty.
Finished putting the display case in the correct spot and fixated it at the wall.

Keurig is nice for college, keeps me from drinking a whole pot in one sitting, and it's convenient for taking a cup to go to class real fast, speakers aren't as horrible as most people would think but I want some better speakers
>>51809205
I know I want better ones but there surprisingly good, especially what I use them for, hopefully tell be replaced soon
just got a new monitor stand.
>>51809127
I NEED TO KNOW.
How much did it cost that fridge? Is it noisy?
>>51811313
The LED strips are rated at 6W / meter. I'm using 8 x 1.40 m = 11,2 m, so that's some 67 W maximum, but I never go higher than 40-50% of that with the dimmer, so normally I'm somewhere between 10 and 20 W, give or take.
>>51811483
>>51811547
What are you so angry about?
I spend money on things that I enjoy, one of those things being Manga. The ceiling light emits light that lights up my room, it does a perfectly good job at that so I'm not sure what you're so crazy about there.
The towel on the seat makes the seat far more breathable and keeps crumbs and shit off the chair. I don't really spend my time looking at what my ass is currently sitting on, so I apologize for not being as versed in proper things-under-my-ass aesthetics.
>>51811854
i also don't sit direclty on the chair, a blanket or a pillow is easier to wash.
Why do so many of you use keyboards without numpads?
>>51808569
Do you work with Tim?
>>51812014
>using a keyboard with a numpad
what, are you an accountant?
>>51812097
nope
just never seen a reason to NOT have a numpad
>>51811854
Oh...You must be the only one that walks into your room then. Believe it or not, other people actually want their things to look nice for other people.
Thinking about buying a new desk, what's the opinion on Linnmon from Ikea? I'm considering it but I'm afraid it'll feel too narrow.

>>51811668
Can I have a link to it?
It's really nice
>>51812110
more keys usually means a higher price, especially with a mechanical keyboard. also the free space is nice
>>51812178
TKL are usually more expensive than TK. Prime example being Topre keyboards.
>>51812201
I don't know just let me talk out of my ass c'mon man
>>51812201
>Prime example being Topre keyboards.
The full size realforce keyboards cost more than the TKL for all that I've seen.

baka weeaboo
Really want to upgrade to a nice 80% plus a numpad. The nonstandard keys on this steelseries keyboard make me regret buying it.
>>51812267
I'm guessing ordering from ebay or amazon.jp would be your best bet.
Or you find some Japanese website that ships to the US. I do hope that you're not planning it to use Kana input though, not even the Japanese use Kana input.
>>51812287
I think the white ones are generally more expensive than the black ones. Beats me why, the black ones look far better.
>>51812315
I didn't want to include the black ones because Amazon isn't selling them directly but they're going for around 22k
>I do hope that you're not planning it to use Kana input though, not even the Japanese use Kana input.
this desu, just use an IME like any normal person or be maximum "i wish i were japanese" and buy ATOK
>>51812287
my best guess is that TKL keyboards are more of a niche product so they can sell it at a markup
>>51812315
black dyes and carbon is cheaper than titanium dioxide, that's why white is more expensive than black.
No time for bst, there's trails to ride.
Also, my 980ti is toast and being RMAed.
>>51812345
Yeah that was my assumption too. If you look on sites like Massdrop too, you can find plenty of tenkeys for ~$60 but the TKLS never really drop below $80.

>>51812488
>rosetta stone
Stop.
Seriously, fucking stop. Head over to /a/'s DJT and start with the guide there.
>>51812552
>unironically recommending DJT
All they do is argue about core2k vs RTK, they're retarded and you're retarded for recommending such a thing.
>>51812570
I'm recommending the guide. Stay out of the thread unless you've got a question or want to shitpost.
>>51812589
Fuck the guide, it's useful for pretending you know Japanese and that's about it. DJT literally just produces fuckwits who take every little opportunity to try express their little Japanese knowledge and it's annoying as fuck.
>>51812606
Why are you so angry at the DJT?
Speaking of which, what's your level of profiency in Japanese?
>>51812623
Enough to realize what a farce DJT is. But what can you expect from weeaboos.
>>51812630
So you went there, tried to learn Japanese and failed?
Or are you actually going to answer the questions I asked you?
>>51812638
apparently asking someone if they're a huge weeb makes you a weeb
what
>>51812641
I'm sure you're really proud of that 100 word vocab and have a need to defend the place that got you there but eventually you'll understand.
>>51812669
Answer the question or don't bother replying.
I never even said that I know Japanese, why are you making such assumptions? Why are you so angry at the DJT?
>>51809108

>>51812693
>I never even said that I know Japanese
Go figure. Why are you being such an apologist?
>>51812703
I'm not. You're the one who's irrationally angry at the DJT, and I'm just asking you what the reason for this irrational anger is. I'm not defending the DJT, I'm asking you a question.
A question which you have been doing your best to avoid for some reason.
>>51811668
what vacuum/cleaner is that?
looks effay as fuck
>>51812728
>irrationally
You keep telling yourself that. Why defend something you have no experience with nor understand?
>>51812748
I am not defending it anon, I am asking you a question.
>>51812759
You're being trolled, chill out
>>51809056
I wish I had an oscope... and new how to use it... my repair days are gone and I miss them. IT work is so boring in comparison.
>>51812759
What question? Why I'm 'angry' at DJT? I'm not angry, I'm more upset at you recommending it without knowing what the fuck you're recommending.
>>51812787
Oh, you're not trolling. Keep on keeping on, then.
>>51812780
I'm chill, I'm just curious how far he's going to take this.

Are you envious of those who succeed in something at which you failed, or why are you this hostile?
>>51812847
Succeed at what? Making a shitty guide based solely on """"""""""opinions"""""""""" or shilling your own guide everywhere you go? Personally I don't see which is more pathetic, please enlighten me.
>>51812863
I didn't make the guide, I just maintain it and make minor changes such as updating links since the guy who wrote it originally has disappeared.
I recommend the guide because I found it to be a good starting point. Better than rosetta stone in any case.
I was referring to succeeding at learning Japanese.
>>51812887
How do you 'succeed' at learning something that is never ending? Don't tell me you're one of those idiots who thinks passing JLPT is a metric for success?
>>51809330
I can't believe this is true. First, it's a girl on /g/. Second, it's dual ~$1,300 monitors. Third, it's a stock photo from an ad.
>>51812887
I'm weebstationman. Believe me, I'm not using rosetta stone.
>>51812909
You succeed by making progress and improving. You succeed by reaching whatever goals you have, in my case being able to read the manga I want to read and watching anime without subtitles. I'm currently working on the latter.
I don't particularly care about the JLPT, but I guess that if someone would consider reaching N1 their goal, and they learn Japanese until they are able to reach that goal, that would be succeeding.

>>51815212
'audiophile' is a dirty word, yes.
The concept is sound though, there are wonderful speakers out there.
>>51815262
and the concept of needing an equally expensive amplifier and DAC to get the 'full potential' from them is ridiculous.
or would you take apart your genelecs and make them passives just to use a 'better' amp with more 'synergy'
>>51815261
It does 60fps so werkz for me
>>51815283
no, to passive,
I think it's all about the box - 90%
7% active xover
3% driver
and any old amp, as long as it's matched so as not to destroy the drivers with too little power.
But I'm open to opinion on this, if anyone has one.
My genelecs use a 12 dollar toshiba amp, as standard from the factory btw.
>>51815350
post that on some subjective audio forum like audiokarma or head-fi and you're bound to get people complaining about how you aren't using them properly. also how are your genelecs using a toshiba amp when they're powered? you're using it as a pre/dac i guess?

>>51815939
no other place to put them, any closer to each other and it would defeat the purpose
>>51815962
what purpose? you can literally stick them between the little shelves you have for the consoles/printer
>>51815976
putting them that close to each other and the center channel defeats the purpose of surround sound
>>51815734
what?
I do a little rework and design myself...
>>51815992
so you're just gonna put up with shit sound for your 'surround'? seems like a terrible tradeoff.
>>51815992
I don't think surround sound matters based on the condition of your room and shit acoustics.
>>51816011
you dont seem to get it. there is no point to place them that close to each when i have a center channel, and 2 rear channels similarly placed on the rear wall
not to mention the receiver is calibrated for those positions, there is literally no reason to change it
>>51816041
smfh
>>51816047
shake your dick instead, maybe then you wont act so stupid
the one thing ive never done is mount my surround at a 90* angle at the sitting position, ive always put them behind the sitting position
>>51815383
I live in an apartment that I pay for myself.
>>51816111
and nowhere does that indicate how far apart the speakers have to be. it's more important to have them away from corners than it is to keep them 3m apart
>>51816156
the corners have nothing to do with it since they are pointed away. the reflection of the sound isnt going to make a difference in a place like that what would matter is their spacing from the center
>>51816206
>the corners have nothing to do with it since they are pointed away
glad to see you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
>>51816214
prove me wrong. these dont have any woofers or anything like that. or go ahead and post your dumb computer desk with speakers on the side to try and show how superior you are
>>51816237
>these dont have any woofers or anything like that
???????????
>>51816248
that is the only reason you would get sound that would need to reflect off of the front wall which would make a corner mean anything. you can either prove me wrong or stop trying to act tough
>>51816285
bass is going to sound extremely muddy if you shove bookshelves into corners. that's where subs should be. this is the most basic thing ever.
>>51816298
those things arent pushing out low range anyways, they are basically directional side channels
>>51814526
get some covers for that cabling on your walls and you'd be pretty set. as it is 8.5/10 good job
>>51816327
where's your sub then? or are you saying you've purposely cut off signals below 200hz?

nah i dont have a sub anymore. gave my 500w to my brother when i moved. wouldnt be able to do much with one anyways in this current place since the walls are paper thin, i only use the sound setup on the weekend when i play games and watch movies anyways, id rather not piss off my neighbors at 3am. when i move in about 6 months i will probably pick up a sub since i will most likely go to a bigger place like a duplex

It was once a factory that made socks and it got divided into 9 different townhomes. Basement, main floor, upstairs with bedrooms.

Damn that case does look nice. I'd love something like that, but bigger sort of. I have a lot of 1:18 and 1:24 models and a few hotwheels I'm particularly proud/fond of...
Custom built or where'd you get it?

AT2020 owner here, I've been using my Kingston Hyper X Cloud II headset more than this lately.
But the last I remember, the AT2020 can be pretty sensitive. Turn up that mic detection level and you can pretty much hear your dad fart on the other side of the house.
