Some1 typed, how to take over the middle east into their llama @ home model, and it said, just kill them bro, trust me.
Then they typed into the wiibeeree, write a plausible military plan to accomplish, just kill them bro, clicks the THINKING mode button.
The model was writing the plan half way, 2 minutes in, the dude got impatient, and clicked Answer Immediately.
Followed by, what stonks to buy?
ANNNNND here we are.
Damn idiots lost us all them spacers.
What's left of our PERCEIVED Hegemony has a 99.9:1 chance of ending in oh..... 2 more weeks.

Interest Checks / [IC] Sonic170 V2 | 10% Macro + 65%

SONIC170 V2
Interest Check
Hello everyone, here I will present the Interest-Check for SONIC170 V2.
Back in 2023, we introduced SONIC170 to you, and the group buy was very successful. SONIC170 has become one of the favorite keyboards for many keyboard fans.
Three years after the end of the SONIC170 group buy, we are about to bring out its updated version, which is also the last group buy for SONIC170.
To optimize the installation of SONIC170 V2, improve the feel and sound, we made significant changes. Please read the following information if you like.

Design
Front
The overall design continues from SONIC V1. The slightly wider right bar and the left Macro keys create visual balance and house the EC11 knob.
We have also prepared a version without the cross-shaped strips, so that you can choose it if you hate the cross-shaped look.
Side
The biggest visual change from V1 is the curved side transition. The side and bottom are connected with dual curves. This makes the keyboard easier to lift and adds more depth to the profile.
Bottom & Rear
Bottom: Less is more. The bottom keeps a minimalist design language. We avoided extra lines and patterns to maintain harmony. The bottom logo uses a PVD finish.
Rear: The USB port has been moved to the right side. It aligns with the backspace key. This makes it easier to connect multiple small PCBs with pogo-pins. It also better showcases custom coiled cables on the desk.
Lighting Module
A matrix of 149 LEDs forms the lighting system. Each LED can be turned on or off individually in VIA to create custom patterns. Due to controller memory limits, it supports saving up to 5 custom patterns and 3 built-in patterns. You can switch between them using shortcuts.
The light board and macro board use pogo pin connections. You can remove or reposition the lighting module without replacing the macro PCB. Additional lighting modules can be purchased; you can install two modules for different combinations.
Right Light Bar: The right light bar and Caps Lock indicator now use side-facing LEDs. This solves the issue of visible LED beads at low brightness and harsh glare at high brightness. The light PCB board is connected using pogo pins, reducing installation difficulty by removing the need for FFC cables during assembly.
Structure
Leaf-Spring Gasket
The SONIC170 V2 uses extended plate arms to reduce resonance. A wall-like frame design separates the plate arms from the inner cavity, reducing contact between the top and bottom shell. The brass mid-frame also helps reduce hollow sound and case resonance. The kit includes silicone gaskets in three hardness levels to match different inner setups.
Inner Structure
A brass mid-frame and brass internal weight reduce internal resonance. Even without foam, the keyboard delivers a solid sound and feel. The kit includes a Poron foam pack as standard which you can mix and match freely.
Connection Method
The SONIC170 V2 uses multiple pogo pins and magnetic connectors to reduce assembly difficulty. These parts come pre-installed from the factory. During assembly, you only need to connect one FFC between the main PCB and the macro board.

Group Buys and Preorders / Re: [GB] BOCC GB (Ended) - In Production
« Last post by meowoofun on Sun, 08 March 2026, 18:37:37 »Does anyone here have a copy of the json file for the Bocc keyboard?
EDIT: Figured it out. I had to compile through QMK configurator under "dztech/bocc", use the preferred layout, compile the hex and then flash with QMK toolbox.

BEFORE we merely rode upon the Fascade of Absolute Militaristic power.
So, it was easier to gut education, maintain mostly blue collar workers, what humans we did educate are mindless white collar servants, the Democrat-BLUE-Magas.
We've created so many idiots, that our most basic systems are uncompetitive. Our machines are as overweight and bloated as our citizenry. 40% of our adult population is obese by BMI, 80% of are obese when xray scanned (accounting for bone/muscle/fat mass)
The current brain power comparison, is like having our well dressed fat guy run a race against an Ethiopian.
It's not that our fat guy can't run, he's been taught to run, albeit poorly, he's been over-fed, and given the wrong equipment.
This is pervasive in the entirety of our western human and technical systems.
