Off Topic / Them escooter and ebikes
« Last post by tp4tissue on Sun, 19 July 2026, 21:16:45 »
Doctor video making the rounds telling people how dangerous these things are and kids getting spinal injuries.

Tp4 actually knows a guy he got really excited about scootn' between warehouses on an escoot.

Couple weeks in, no helmet, he fell off, 20mph, broke 2 front toofs.

Sooooo... long story short $20,000 later,  welp, hope ya'll got $20,000 just lay'n around.

The escooter was $300.

Why don't they broadcast world cup in at leastttt 120fps.

It's ridiculous @ 60fps, the motion blur is unwatchable. Can barely see the ball.

There are keyboards with ability to detect intermediate positions of keys and convert this into virtual gamepad sticker movements. On some keyboards this is WASD and arrows. Some keyboards have all keys upgraded, but single virtual gamepad sticker can of course only use limited set of keys.

I know about Cooler Master MK850 (AimPad) and Wooting Two HE. The competition is scarce and colors are horrible. Alternative keycaps can fix it to some degree, but keyboard itself stays black.

I read about programmable solenoids in Model F keyboard. And I wonder. Can position measurements be translated to virtual gamepad sticker by just flashing new firmware? Or are solenoids in some isolated enclave, away from sending arbitrary USB signals.

Reviews / Cherry MX Lumina Brown Switch Review

Hey all,

What if I told you Cherry has already released its first switches produced solely out of their new Chinese production facility they said they were moving to in late 2025? Would you be shocked that you hadn't heard anything about these new switches yet? Well, there's plenty more you'll be surprised about the Cherry MX Lumina Browns so definitely take some time to go through this review...

As always, thank you all for the continued readership and support week in and out. Hopefully the coming weeks will yield switches that are a bit more predictable in terms of their quality and backgrounds for the next sets of reviews!

Cheers,

Input Devices / How long is/was the warranty on your current trackball/mouse?
« Last post by Stupidface on Sun, 19 July 2026, 02:49:51 »
30 days?  6 months?  A Lifetime Warranty, perhaps?

[Pause for Howls of Derisive Laughter]

I suspect there are also manufacturers who offer a warranty that lasts approximately as long as it takes to break the seal on the box (ask me how I learned about that).  And I imagine there are quite a few more of these manufacturers at present than there are of the Lifetime Warranty sort.

However, the length of a typical warranty in 2026 is a mystery to me.  I am hoping a few replies might help give an idea of how things are.

Looking forward to seeing how the project develops and what the final version ends up looking like.
