depending on what you bought, but generally buying chink keycaps is safe and solid

2017-03-20 10:29:40 UTC  

lemme get link

2017-03-20 10:29:43 UTC  

they seemed fine

2017-03-20 10:29:44 UTC  

mostly you can get better ones than stock caps

2017-03-20 10:29:49 UTC  

and had good reviews

2017-03-20 10:37:44 UTC  

thick PBT is fine

2017-03-20 10:45:16 UTC  

NPKC is decent

2017-03-20 10:45:35 UTC  

See the keycap page on the wiki

2017-03-20 10:56:52 UTC  

Are mechanical keyboards just a meem

2017-03-20 10:58:11 UTC  

well you dont become better typer with them but for some people they feel better

2017-03-20 10:58:16 UTC  

so they are meem

2017-03-20 10:58:35 UTC  

Don't they break more often

2017-03-20 10:58:44 UTC  

no

2017-03-20 10:59:35 UTC  

opposite since if you have membrance keyboard you most likely cant change keycaps if they go loose or break

2017-03-20 11:01:23 UTC  

Mechs are legit

2017-03-20 11:01:47 UTC  

But switch autism, keycaps, etc are sort of a meme

2017-03-20 11:02:09 UTC  

Still, get a switch that you'll like

2017-03-20 11:10:00 UTC  

i have membrain keyboard

2017-03-20 11:10:06 UTC  

feels like a mechanical keyboard

2017-03-20 11:17:34 UTC  

maybe in the way that a baby mouth car masturbator feels like a real prostitutes mouth

2017-03-20 11:17:50 UTC  

yes

2017-03-20 11:18:14 UTC  

Has anyone ever bought these loli lips from the csg infographic?

2017-03-20 11:18:22 UTC  

which one

2017-03-20 11:51:41 UTC  

@Archy brown and blue switches can improve your typing speed by having the tactile bump / click to indicate when you can step depressing the key. If you use it as a way to train you out of bottoming out keys, it can improve your typing speed on all keyboards substantially. Beyond that there's the durability argument. Mechanicals will out last membrane keys, then there's just the feel. I had to switch back to a shitty dell keyboard until I get my aula fixed and it feels gross, to be honest.

2017-03-20 11:52:32 UTC  

placebo and autism makes mechanical keyboard your perfect computation partner

2017-03-20 11:52:41 UTC  

Now I know I just said Mechanicals will out last rubber domes, but that I have to fix mine. You can't account chinky soldering with switch failure.

2017-03-20 11:53:50 UTC  

You can also teach yourself not to bottom out on rubber domes, you just don't have that feedback to help you find the sweet spot.

2017-03-20 11:54:46 UTC  

actually

2017-03-20 11:54:56 UTC  

i been using my mx brown for over 2 years know i think

2017-03-20 11:55:28 UTC  

i began to not bottom out without noticing

2017-03-20 11:56:20 UTC  

I would assume so after enough time. Your subconscious will just equate the bump with the end of the keypress.

2017-03-20 11:56:31 UTC  

that's my thought

2017-03-20 11:56:51 UTC  

because the travel distance to the bottom is still pretty far compared to the click mechanicsm

2017-03-20 11:57:01 UTC  

Just like people like me who never learned how to properly typed just inevitably learned to type without looking through exposure.

2017-03-20 11:57:33 UTC  

i also didn't learn to type, i just slammed on it like a piano without piano lessons

2017-03-20 11:58:11 UTC  

humans are amazing

2017-03-20 12:02:28 UTC  

Lol, I always used three fingers on each hand, pinky fingers for far reach like shift, and thumbs for space. I would just look and scan the keyboard as I typed. Eventually I just had to glance down for reference to where my hand is, now I just find the nubs and type away. Still don't use all my fingers though. Can type 70-100wpm so it's whatever.

2017-03-20 12:05:07 UTC  

same

2017-03-20 12:05:34 UTC  

still instinctively use pinky for far reach

2017-03-20 12:05:43 UTC  

same
