It may well be the Covid but neither of us are at the age where we can bounce back and be like we were. As we get into our 70's often it's the accidental fall or back twist, the cold that becomes pneumonia, or some inherited condition finally coming out that sets us back and that becomes the new norm.  I know that you take good care of yourself and that's about the best you can do.

Buh, why kurplop not try the Max-veggies.

Nice, really need to try that game.

Tp4 thinking about upgrading to a 4090 for this game. It's slightly more power efficient.

Don't open PSUs unless you know what you're doing.

The capacitors in there are strong enough to kill you and it will hurt the entire time.

It's not a myth, they CAN kill you, but you have to be touching them in a very specific way where the current crosses from one arm to the other across your heart. 

Or if you have a pace maker.

This is untrue and unnecessary scaremongering - thrust me I have experience with charged capacitors.
BTW most PC PSUs will deplete all caps pretty quickly after unplug.

The danger is only when you plug-in exposed PSU and forget about it putting your fingers inside.

I'm quite interested on this board, but just a small doubt that worries me: Why is there no GB post for this IC under "Group Buys and Preorders" subforum?

Because I didn't create it on the "Group Buys and Preorders" forum, all my previous GB are like that. I find that posting in multiple places will dilute the information.

I can understand that reason, but reading what Group Buy Rules and Guidelines (Updated 2023-09-11) (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=115197.0) states, every IC must have its corresponding GB post in order to be reviewed and approved by GH's moderation team.

It's just my opinion, but don't you think that in order to avoid any kind of suspicion about possible frauds or exit scams (I am not saying that this GB will be that) and in terms of transparency and best practices, would't it be a good idea to publish a GB post under "Group Buys and Preorders" forum for this keyboard? Then you can also post there all the updates during manufacturing phase till the delivery to vendors...

As I said before, that's just my opinion and maybe I'm wrong and this IC is the normal way of doing things for a GB...but for sure that from my side I would be calmer and safer in joining this GB...

Thanks. A Ducky TKL and an aigo a100. Apparently it is unpopular, but I am looking for a good 100% mechanical keyboard.

The reason why they are unpopular is because it's too big, but I specifically don't like full sizes cause of the layout, I use really small keyboards (60% boards) and stuff like layers I'm just too used to. If you are looking for good 100% then there are a couple options though.

there a lot of vintage keyboards in that layout, stuff like the IBM model m and the apple extended keyboard I (specifically the m0115) model are pretty good keyboards. Model M's can be found for pretty good deals on places like ebay, but if you want to buy something newer than unicomp has buckling spring full sizes on their website that are still good. If you are gonna get the m0115 try to get a clean one, the switches in the boards, alps are very susceptible to dust and bad ones feel really bad.
