infographic update when

never

I am surprised the first one ever got made

Yes

how do I create an invite to this discord <:chinese_think:323022148870602752>

there's one in <#247481427803897866> copy that

its on github @Stoopeedo @foxhunt

xiaomi wiha screwdriver set on sale for ~$14 👀

eventually will post to hot-deals

forget all that noise if you want something actualy good get Bosch PSR Select thing

one of smartest designs i have seen in ages

think revolver clip + electric screwdriver

(it wont drill anything with 3.6V but it aint meant for that anyway)

just put the wiha in a drill chuck

do you have to remove the clip to change bits

wait

no

holy shit

russian roulette but for screwdrivers

can I get a link to that github ?

<https://github.com/g-csg/g-csg.github.io>

maybe just throw that to room topic ?

i mean nobody reads it anyway but its easier to say its on room topic

@spaqin yeah they use magnets so you just pull the unwanted bit away and switch

its fucking brilliant design

i dont suppose it's better for precise work though

i finger fucked it for a while in shop and wondered why on earth nobody else has made it yet

@spaqin doubt but id say its small enough to be used with laptop teardown if you have sane trigger finger

(dunno how much the shop model was charged so it might have been lazy battery too)

yeah, so i cant use it with photo stuff

i cant use the wiha either, but i cant use the bosch too

yeah for precission work there is ofc own set of professional tools :P

but gotta admit it looks amazing

reason number 1 i wont nigger my waifus screwdrivers for any use

i never know if the current thing im holding is worth more than my monitors combined or not... fucking micromechanic/clocksmiths that shit is ridiculous

what i call precission tools are crude hokey pokey devices

:D

what does the verb nigger mean

<:pepewot:589100642820161551>

steal/borrow without permission.... cmoon good sir

ok good point

have you not seen any movies (okay that verb is used only in few bad movies but still

could you name one movie that uses it that way

i only watch movies made east of me

so around the globe still counts

gotcha

i havent heard ниггер or 니께르

dohoho

buut anyway yeah that revolver thing is amazing idea

i wonder when they make larger model with similar idea

i could use 12v model what has slightly longer chamber to store few longer drillbits too

tho i dunno if the contraption is too delicate for drilling/torque tools

who's the brainlet who left the Soldering Iron section incomplete? https://g-csg.github.io/electronics.html

<feel free to contribute>

wow if it offends you so much you should go ahead and change it

i probably will that being said

😘

im glad i decided not to do it on the wiki

because i saw a bunch of spam accounts being made then recently the wiki just went offline

o i gues they're back up

<https://wiki.installgentoo.com>

but with that being said history tends to repeat itself so ~~

i'd (ideally) add a subsection that differentiates the antiquated ceramic element vs direct tip irons

do it

feel free to make a pull request

also id stay away from ranking anything with
>>> 1.
2.
3.
5.
77.

as people will bitch "boohoo but X is better than Y in this and this part"

its sorted by price

..manually

that sensible just throwing "price at last check date <date>" there and people can also see if the price has gone up down since the date

sure gathering statistic averages would be better but take time and be PITA

also true test for Aliexpress and local shipping company

ordered A4 sized glasspane * a number

<:pepewot:589100642820161551>

cheapish "smart"glass

i estimate at least 1 corner will be fucked by delivery

or that it will be in 1000 pieces puzzle toy

hilarious 60 volt toys

tho this goes to one project as frontend window anyway

🤷 not my money

Hi on AliExpress I’m getting a big banner saying there’s a big sale starts in 2 days is it just me or?

Brands shopping week

Entirely just 4u

of course it's a sale week for everyone

any good deals?

also. both my yanwen packages did not arrive

what a surprise

@Tervy overhauled the section on irons, take a look if it interests you https://g-csg.github.io/electronics.html

mainly shilled the KSGER

noice

kinda wish that Rossmann or Dave from EEVblog checked it out tbh

they did reviews on the ts100/ts80 and i linked them

oh man i remember the fucking CURSED tablet that got on eevblog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2o8MDCIlOEk

I remember that vid

jesus

holy shit

I thought I made bad circuits

Maybe I should add a section about the Yihua 908D

also @onoderaSecurity have you had any luck with the solder, or solder wick that you bought off aliexpress? The solder wick is completely useless and does not work. And the solder is of very average qaulity, so I went out a bought a propper roll of MultiCore brand solder.

didn't test yet @Aqualiteking

my station aint even here yet

what solder did you buy?

Kaina?

Does anyone actually own a Aoyue 469 and can vouch for it? The Yihua 908D has a proper temperature read out and it better priced.

jesus if you're fucking speculating about irons just buy a KSGER

please

@onoderaSecurity Nah I have bought Jinhu and Kaisi

which are both ass

no I already own a 908D

kaishit is, well
jinhu i'm pretty sure is average

anyway don't expect us to really bother adding old style type irons

the 937D is like, over 5 years old I think

Spooky

I'm scared of Jack Ma

@nobody_san did you make that video review?

holy shit a chink bluetooh speaker with usb c?

we're in the future

@Tribit step up your speakers, man

this

I demand a tribit speaker with clavinetjunkie sound setting and usb c

Anyone got anything cool in their shopping cart for the sale tomorrow?

thinking of getting a chinky homage watch

not cool in any way, the deal isnt spectacular either

I have some rings my cart, and some pins for my backpack

still a deal, but less of a deal than it seems to be

probably the same goes for all other discounts

The biggest "deal" in my cart is a screw/nutdriver set, that's getting $3 off

Im just browsing my wishlist

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32863426249.html

please do not post any dildos while browsing your wish list

I will post all my dildos and you will love them

@Matthew can you repost your ali plushes? I cant find them

Need to go down to IKEA eventually and get one

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32974459687.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.69857ce42GfAnO&algo_pvid=14244dd1-33dd-4956-916b-f0ad7650378e&algo_expid=14244dd1-33dd-4956-916b-f0ad7650378e-8&btsid=a02c6365-7f06-46a0-94c5-792bca5c00f0&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_1,searchweb201603_52

yeah theres what look like legit blahajes on ali now

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32970884009.html

Bootleg Blahaj

@Julian I broke that news like a month and a half ago, and y'all were just like "They're the same price at IKEA, idiot"

ah

In fact, it was YOU who said it

Oopsie woopsie 😊

a real fucko boingo on my part

<:alithink:327930371796893698>

So apparently China Post tracking shows exactly which plane your package is on now

Someone needs to make a Banepost with Bane being a Yanwen employee

*Crashing this plane...*

Anyone want to vape some women's swimsuit flavor?

*imagine the smell*

thoughts on isopod pushies?

I want a source

Japan though, so I'd assume it's pricy

@Millwood

I dunno, I saw one in osaka aquarium giftshop

Probably nip amazon

But I'm guessing its not cheap

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32891813039.html

c-close enough

hoping that Xiaomi dyson like vacuum cleaner goes on sale

would make for good present

https://www.mi.com/fr/mi-handheld-vacuum-cleaner/ costs about 150 euros in china

it did

it went on sale on geekbuying

price?

235

i dont know if thats a sale but it was the first time i saw it

https://www.geekbuying.com/item/Xiaomi-Dreame-V9-Cordless-Stick-Vacuum-Cleaner-White-418174.html

debating on whether I should get that one or the robot vacuum, robot seems better for apartments and small houses

live in a 3 story building

uh

no you should get the stick

robots cannot traverse floors

also did u check ali for the upcoming sale

$199.33

it's not china holiday right?

in 3.5 hours it will be

im actually in the market for one of these stick vacuums but im not entirely sure what the difference between the $20 and the $200 ones are so i think ill wait it out for now

might pick one up if based chink gives "tax free" with dhl

was checking some out since our old one is dying but dyson is super expensive

Think the main difference is sucking power, accessories and battery life. Corded vacuums will always be cheaper but they're a hassle

I have the older model Dyson cordless, can go back to corded

Cant

Make sure you get the right motor head, the hard floor head (they call it 'fluffy') can't clean carpets at all

Was almost gonna buy the Dyson V8 absolute even though it's fucking expensive, hope the price drops to normal levels for that xiaomi one

xiaomi makin me HECKIN WAIT so I can get rid of their shitty OS off of my new 9T

Reeee

i feel like im the only one that likes miui

@the_cook no

it's good, I liked it when I had it

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33027988483.html thing thang got knobs

how do i know if i have a redmi note 7 pro or non pro

you go to device info on ur phone

also the pro was only for pajeets

yeah thats the thing, becasue of that i was thinking it wouldnt be noted in the device but was more of a market seperation thing

and the official lineage os release says redmi note 7 pro

out of all the fucking things they could have made those potentiometers to control

they chose their own shitty led lights...

like what in the fuck

yeah I dont even think its volume control

damn shame

Knobs the size of a single switch are now becoming popular in the mechanical kb autist community, turn controls volume, press is play/pause

now someone should improve that and make it into a 4 direction joystick for previous/next and other stuff

for many your average psp-joystick chip would be way better option with proper coding

you can spin it for volume

it has 8 axis and click iirc

just simple microprocessor to scan for the movement and interpret what they are trying to do

~derp

but yeah as someone said times ago.. its only time when those autists find slide potentiometers and other stuff

tho is the community actualy using pots or just encoders ? ... considering some nutjob is planning/kickstarting even succesfully a fucking hall-effect keyboard.... im not that suprised about anything anymore related to keyboards

8 axis <:thonk:288060975775612929>

i mean i can understand 3 axis

but where do the other 5 come from
