Watched a few reviews

2017-07-07 14:35:17 UTC  

a lot of mechanical keyboards are listed as "nkro" but don't actually have true nkro

2017-07-07 14:35:51 UTC  

the cheaper chink keyboards typically do this

2017-07-07 14:36:02 UTC  

The fuck is nkro

2017-07-07 14:36:25 UTC  

nkro means you can press any amount of keys and the keyboard will register it

2017-07-07 14:36:41 UTC  

I think mine has that

2017-07-07 14:36:52 UTC  

you can test it pretty easily but nobody ever does

2017-07-07 14:37:03 UTC  

I remember my old PS/2 keyboard, it started beeping when I pressed more than 5 buttons

It supports at least 10 presses, the one I have. I pressed all my fingers just now

2017-07-07 14:38:41 UTC  

what keyboard do you have?

2017-07-07 14:38:48 UTC  

i could only get 6 on my shitty mac kb lol

seems like DHL didn't show up today <:kms:327934280619655179>

2017-07-07 14:40:11 UTC  

Because you live in the middle of nowhere

2017-07-07 14:40:19 UTC  

no excuse

2017-07-07 14:40:26 UTC  

plane to nearest airport

2017-07-07 14:40:38 UTC  

drive for 1.5h to get here

2017-07-07 14:40:44 UTC  

Often they stock up on packages if they see you have multiple before delivering. According to my step-dad that used to work for them

2017-07-07 14:41:02 UTC  

for the chink keyboards with nkro

2017-07-07 14:41:07 UTC  

try plugging them on PS2

2017-07-07 14:41:18 UTC  

might solve the nkro

2017-07-07 14:41:30 UTC  

you mean without right

2017-07-07 14:41:44 UTC  

yes, I got wrong

2017-07-07 14:42:02 UTC  

I still need an adapter for my aula f2012

2017-07-07 14:42:15 UTC  

i've seen an article where they recommended using a usb-to-ps2 then an active ps2-to-usb

2017-07-07 14:42:18 UTC  

but with USB I can't even do ctrl+alt+shift+S at the same time

2017-07-07 14:42:21 UTC  

i didn't even know active ps2 to usb was a thing

2017-07-07 14:42:28 UTC  

Does PS/2 support more than 5 presses?

2017-07-07 14:42:39 UTC  

Yes, I think

2017-07-07 14:42:43 UTC  

it has to do with the keyboard

2017-07-07 14:42:45 UTC  

I had a really cheap non mech keyboard

2017-07-07 14:42:55 UTC  

that was like 5 dollars

2017-07-07 14:42:56 UTC  

in order to do nkro via usb it costs more in materials

2017-07-07 14:42:59 UTC  

Yeah, but the connecter itself only has 6 pins

2017-07-07 14:43:08 UTC  

and I could press like 8 keys at the same time

2017-07-07 14:43:22 UTC  

but with USB I couldn't press more than 5

2017-07-07 14:43:25 UTC  

I'm talking out of my arse hereā€¦ soo

2017-07-07 14:43:41 UTC  

i know some keyboards have a system to switch between 6kro and nkro, I believe its a compatability thing

2017-07-07 14:43:44 UTC  

mine does
