How do I clean my keyboard o.o
« on: Wed, 24 April 2013, 16:12:22 »
I have a Ducky Shine (v1), and I'm good with taking the keycaps off--but it's absurdly hard to clean in between the switches...any special way/guide to doing this? =D

Compressed air always worked for me, unless it's baked on(shouldn't be). In which case, just take an old toothbrush/ any sort of fine brush and gently rub then turn upside down and shake.

Why not just get a keycap puller and take the keycaps off? Does not take too long. It is not like you need to do it every day and you can leave any key with a stabilizer on.

Though I can not blame you. I am lazy. Cleaning often means keeping it upside down for a bit, and wiping it down with microfiber cloth.

Vacuum is better than pressure, in general.

Q-tips and alcohol are good.

"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."

I've always used a vacuum with the narrowest attachment I have. Although sometimes I wish I had an even narrower one.
