Other Geeky Stuff / Re: Game for Couples

That's great to hear that you and your girlfriend are enjoying playing It Takes Two together! It's always wonderful when you can find a game that both of you can get into, especially if one of you isn't as experienced with gaming. It's a really well-made co-op game that requires teamwork and communication, which can be a fun way to bond. I'm glad you're both getting invested in solving the puzzles and taking down the bosses. As for what my partner and I play, we tend to go for more casual, relaxing games that we can play together in short bursts, like cooperative puzzle games or party games. But the most important thing is finding something you both genuinely enjoy.

Interest Checks / Re: [IC] KAM Soda Squid - Updated Kits & Vendors
« Last post by kinnju on Thu, 02 May 2024, 21:21:03 »
More updates!
After discussing with the vendors, we’ve decided to run this set as a pre-order

I've also added a Colevrak and NordeUK kit for broader support.

The Squid Party deskmat has been slightly adjusted so the colours of the blue gradient are on the left while the colours of the yellow gradient are on the right to match the set.

Also updated the vendors list to include the following:
US: Keebs For All
CA: Ashkeebs
UK: ProtoTypist
CH: ZFrontier

This Sakura switch is amazing. The combination of a cute design, thocky sound profile, and specs perfect for daily typing is a dream come true. I can't wait to get my hands on them and experience the feel for myself.

R5 & windowed keys make me moist.
agreed. too many designs taking a step back to R4 lately and it's so annoying

I feel like designers are starting to use r5 a lot more, now that all the keyset designers who came in during the panemdic to make a quick buck are gone and didn't really care about profile that much, r4 is far more mainstream because it became the standard. I don't mind r4 but vintage inspired sets like this need r5 to keep in theme.

What's the reason behind no barred F and J keys?

The main reason was,  cutting what we could to help with the costs, due to creating new molds, all while keeping as many people as possible. By not cutting 4 key 40s, Alice and UK ISO. You will also notice we removed barred 5 along with F & J.

Another reason was that we didn't like how the bar was interfering with the doubleshot sublegends in our render tests and decided to go with scooped over barred as there is less interference and more aesthetically pleasing look.

I appreciate the response, interference makes sense and glad you were able to support additional layouts. Gonna try out scoops for a bit now to see if I can deal with them haha, love the set

Off Topic / Re: TikTok Stealing User Data?? SHOCKING!

i think it's one of the most potent social media/entertainment apps out there at the moment.

These apps are levers for further capitalist rot. So we already agree, it's not there to entertain you, it's there to Sell-You-Stuff. The funny cat videos they insert in between advertisement is just to manipulate a person's emotional state, to compel spending.

So we see that it's selling the user's data/ attention, the ads themselves sell planet destroying junk that you'd get bored of after 30 minutes, and reach for the app to brainwash you into buying Yet-More-Stuff.

Social media applications under capitalism, greatly accelerates the death of our planet.

I don't understand peoples' obsession with social media, but there is no doubt that "China" wants to vacuum up all the information in the world.

tp's point is fairly accurate, but an extension to it is that there's monetary value (and power) associated with gathering user data and a profile about a given user, and naturally everyone wants to make money. the ban is looming so we'll see what's in store for tiktok. i think it's one of the most potent social media/entertainment apps out there at the moment. very quick to sift through content that interests you, amazing recommendation algorithm, and very effective/productive content creation tooling.
