Off Topic / Re: The Economic Collapse
« Last post by tp4tissue on Fri, 02 October 2026, 13:54:16 »Sigh..
Guys, GOLD, is extremely risky.
Gold fundamentally, outside of scientific/ industrial uses, is the same as fiat, it has a fully imaginary scarcity/ value.
They advertise this stuff on Youtube, precious metals sites, by saying things like OH LOOK, China's buying GOLD, they must know something, It's all gold from here !!!.
NO !!
China is buying gold neither because it's precious, nor because it's valuable.
CHINA is buying gold, as an inter-operability mechanism to Facilitate Transition OUT of the $Dollar system.
They are fundamentally Going their own way.
Gina is already the world's largest economy, it has the most advanced technology across 66/74 critical high tech sectors, AND it has the industrial capacity to actually SCALE the applications.
GOLD, is not valuable beyond its real use case, here it's merely a conduit into their new banking system.
In fact, it's more likely that the Western countries would disavow any of our own pegged gold price, than the future of "gold" going up.
REAL SCARCITY is OIL, Buhtttt, the way the economy is set up, there's a cap on ultimate price, because demand destruction sets in more quickly than you'd think.
For example, in reality, OIL performs $100,000$ worth of manual human labor, per barrel. $2,000,000 worth if you hire in China, $10,000,000 worth if you hire in India/Africa.
So, why are we selling it at $60 or $100, or $150 <current real average price>.
Because if the price goes up, the consumption economy wouldn't function, no one can afford the product.
Reality is however, there is still ALOT of room for oil to move, $600-1000 is perfectly reasonable, even if it collapses the middle class entirely.
<This> is not Tp4 recommending you guys try to trade barrels, the clearing house systems don't deal in physical goods most of them, they're more/less just casinos and hedge trades for large interests.

That kind of reminds you of irnnt, defeating the 'murikn military with a ragtag crew and home made war tech.
The significance of this memory, is that, Tp4 be watchn' a chip review, and the guy'd be like, oh this callodut game easily stays above 60fps, and Tp4 thought to himself, who still plays game at 60 fps? All wrapped up in his knowit'all conceited world view.
Well you see, irnt plays games at 10fps, and it's defeted 'murkia. so...

Same with the esc key location. There is no windowed key in the pcb layout but there is a windowed key in one of your renders

But that's like... almost 7 Neo80 Cus... Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Keyboards / Re: What is best latest TKL keyboard kit I could buy?
« Last post by HaruEdwards on Fri, 02 October 2026, 10:04:51 »This is a great discussion for anyone exploring the latest TKL keyboard kits, especially with so many options and user experiences being shared. The detailed list of boards already tested makes the conversation especially useful for comparing different builds, with the same kind of product-focused curiosity you might see in R & D Medical Products.

Group Buys and Preorders / Re: [GB] MW Jirai (Doubleshot ABS) | 7 August - 7 September 2026 (Final week of GB!)
« Last post by jigumina on Fri, 02 October 2026, 09:49:00 »MW Jirai update
Hi everyone, our sincere apologies for the long delay. Unfortunately, we did not hit the required MOQ for doubleshot manufacturing and after some discussion we have decided it would be best to cancel and refund this group buy going forward. Please give your vendors some time for this process. If you have any questions or encounter any issues please feel free to reach out to me or your respective vendors.
I want to give a big thank you to those who have joined the group buy and shown your love and support towards this project ♡ While this might be unfortunate news for those looking forward to this set, I hope to be able to bring it back in the future, perhaps dyesub with a lower MOQ could be one of the options. Meanwhile, if you'd like to stay updated on my future projects you can find me at https://www.instagram.com/jigumikei/
Once again, sorry for this unfortunate outcome and thank you for the support during this period! I hope to see you all again!! ♡
