omfg I'd murder for that cap set in DSA. I'm a coffee junkie

LOL! I'm also quite the coffee junkie (I add a little chocolate ice cream to mine), but it's only coming with the case and a half plate :p

you just HAVE to find that capset for it! xD it is amazing.

Thanks and I agree that it's adorable lol. As for the caps, I really like them, but I'm not really into sp ABS :p

I just got a DHL notification on my door for a missed package. I get unexpected packages quite frequently, but this one was expressed from China 2 days ago. I never get packages expressed to me, so I'm quite anxious to find out what it is or who sent it. It won't be redelivered until next Tuesday though, so if you sent me this package, come show yourself...

I think I have the same thing in the mail as you (Poker II) and I also missed it on Friday. Did your DHL slip say they would retry on Tuesday? Mine said they would retry on Monday (I hope so) , but the guy also marked 11:31 in the morning as 11:31 PM.

I called and they tried to have the driver go back and drop it off later that day but he never came  :-[

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

^ Where is the white sanctuary set from?

I got on my soldering set building yesterday by getting my first piece: a desoldering tool from RadioShack (one with the rubber suction thing)--$5 after a coupon, woop!

Also waiting for my Ducky Shine to arrive from Taiwan, either today or tomorrow :) And hoping my o-rings from IMSTO won't be traveling too much longer.

I think I should set up a "What was lost in the mail thread" so we can record what the Postal Service has taken fro us; as well as which country has the worst Postal Service.
unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)

i agree though, a raid should be organized
somewhere out there...some dude has all our stuff in one room in a distribution center

It's finally here!  My Purple LED Ducky Shine II TKL!  And it's perfect--this batch of Browns is wonderfully smooth, almost no friction: I lucked out :D

23914-0

And as someone mentioned, the frequency of the LEDs is indeed very irritating  to look across.  Has a strobe light effect that my Storm Trigger with RED LEDs had none of.  But I'm replacing the caps soon anyway!  I mostly wanted the LEDs for the soft glow around non-transparent caps :)  Anyway, very excited! 

Going to paint the case soon, either in silver flake or some form of purple/pink flake!

* KeyCool keyboard from qtan

I just received tsangan's KMAC mini and I couldn't be happier! 



I didn't know whether I'd like the mx blacks, but they're great.  And man, it's hard to keep myself from drooling all over this thing.

Nice keyboard :)

Do you fnid you hit the Fn keys when aiming for Esc much?

Looks like the mouse is in the middle of a slow motion explosion ;)

I haven't had a chance to play around with it all that much yet.  One of my ssds died and I haven't bothered to reformat everything so I'm on my laptop right now.  From what I've used of it though it seems as though the key placement is pretty great.  I have pretty big oafish hands and yet I haven't had any problems with missed keys or anything.  Yeah I was so excited I didn't even bother to clean up my computer station before snapping the pic  :p

Oh you meant the mouse itself?  Yeah I like it because I can adjust it to fit my hands better.  I don't like it because the sensor has problems.  I'm definitely going to do more research next time :D

Well you'd be horrified if you could see the rest of my room so I guess we're even!
