@kontroll blacks are good if you're an office worker. However horrible to gaymen keyboard intesive games.

2018-05-22 08:36:14 UTC  

I used my black for gaming for years.

2018-05-22 08:36:22 UTC  

I have blues and I like them

2018-05-22 08:36:30 UTC  

Kinda loud but comfy af

2018-05-22 08:37:12 UTC  

Red gaming meme switches feel beyond terrible for me anyway.

2018-05-22 08:39:03 UTC  

what chinkphone should i spend ~£120 on for my mum

2018-05-22 08:39:09 UTC  

she likes big screens

2018-05-22 08:39:44 UTC  

From the switches I've tried I wouldn't reccomend clears

2018-05-22 08:39:52 UTC  

get on my level peasants- try the acer ku-0355

2018-05-22 08:39:57 UTC  

They're like FUCKING STIFF browns, really gritty

2018-05-22 08:39:59 UTC  

this looks decent tbh

2018-05-22 08:40:24 UTC  

not full metal but the semi-transparent bottom seems nice idea

2018-05-22 08:41:32 UTC  

I'm not a fan of exposed sides, I don't want a slutty keyboard

2018-05-22 08:41:42 UTC  

Lol

2018-05-22 08:42:42 UTC  

Ohhhhhhhhhh

2018-05-22 08:42:56 UTC  

You can buy 3rd party cases for the Filco TKL's

2018-05-22 08:44:23 UTC  

ye looks like your only option is to DIY

2018-05-22 08:49:48 UTC  

Man Filcos are expensive

2018-05-22 08:49:57 UTC  

I think 75% is going to be my thing

2018-05-22 09:06:46 UTC  

I wonder if it would be at all feasible to convert a non N-KRO keyboard to N-KRO somehow.

2018-05-22 09:10:58 UTC  

yes, depending on how much effort you want to put into it

2018-05-22 09:12:32 UTC  

Assuming that metric is largely irrelevant?

2018-05-22 09:13:31 UTC  

You'd have to replace the logic with something that support NKRO

2018-05-22 09:13:46 UTC  

i'd imagine most keyboards use a generic chip

2018-05-22 09:13:48 UTC  

That's my thinking.

2018-05-22 09:13:58 UTC  

you'd need to replace that with one that does support it, or a microcontroller

2018-05-22 09:14:17 UTC  

arduino to rescue dohohohoho(dont)

2018-05-22 09:14:20 UTC  

Like replacing the controller with a handful of ardiuno type shitters, perhaps.

2018-05-22 09:14:20 UTC  

then you'll most likely get into problems with the pins

2018-05-22 09:14:35 UTC  

so you'd need to either deadbug that or some other approach

2018-05-22 09:14:39 UTC  

@Tervy Don't? Why? 😬

2018-05-22 09:15:21 UTC  

too much effort/cost instead of replacing board

2018-05-22 09:16:00 UTC  

Perhaps. Might also be fun to fuck with for a while.

2018-05-22 09:16:20 UTC  

actually, you might also run into issues with the scanmatrix

2018-05-22 09:16:33 UTC  

so at that point you're down to basically making a new pcb and moving all the switches over

2018-05-22 09:16:40 UTC  

Although if one could simply source a plug-in controller...

2018-05-22 09:17:00 UTC  

getting into ship of theseus at that point

2018-05-22 09:17:07 UTC  

@Goz3rr That's my fear. And that shit is black magic to me.

2018-05-22 09:17:27 UTC  

oh
