I read on a youtube video somewhere that rubberized feet make a nicer sound. I'm curious as to if this is actually true.
Keyboards are the only thing keeping me from consuming human flesh.

Why not try it and find out? Are your ears not good enough? :))

Made a test;

Edit: Compared my Filco MJ2 with reds vs QFR with reds, unrubberized vs rubberized feet - I couldn't hear any difference in sound to be honest... Tried with the same keycaps as well.

!SCAM ALERT! Be careful of BunnyLake, he scammed me out of a 360 Corsa, KMAC Happy and a JD40.

Ah right. Fair enough. Can't say I've ever noticed a difference.

You can always try one of my mats (hint hint) I have a few left.

"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.
