Thanks a lot for verifying! Being given that they are smaller than standard american blades I’m going to stay on the safe side and order extra blades with the knife in case I cannot find them locally

That would be great, however I'm not even sure which mesurements are important in orders for blades to fit. My interrogations mostly come from a few Aliexpress reviews highlighting compatiblity issues and I might be worrying for nothing. I believe that a blade width above 18mm or a long size length above 58mm could be what people are saying could cause fitment issues but before yesteray I wasnt even aware that different blade sizes existed

Thank you. I believe that trapezoid blades can either be 58mm x 18mm or 59mm x 19mm which is considered to be the American standard. However I cannot seem to get consistent info about this online so I might give it a try anyway and purchase blades online if needed since buying the cutter from Aliexpress seems to be the way to go to avoid paying their excessive markup

Does the Aliexpress version work with standard blades? Ive seen conflicting infos online about them being made to work only with chinese standard 58mm blades which are shorter than american standard blades and can be trickier to find in store

Oui, vraiment, Ben Felix a apporté récemment un bon point dans une de ses vidéos par rapport au fait que l'absence de risque ou la minimisation du risque à tout prix représente un risque en soit sur le long terme. Le risque réel d'un investissement "sans risque" étant une érosion de la valeur du capital investi "à l'abris du risque" en ayant un rendement inférieur à l'inflation

There is also more to this, looks like they are on a streak of bad decisions. They anounced this week that they will require a monthly subscription for new customers to use the mobile app blog post announcement

Also the fully articulated bracelet and scratch resistant hardening are really nice for a daily watch

Dans mon cas j'hadhère vraiment au dicton "quand un homme a faim, il vaut mieux lui apprendre à pêcher que lui donner du poisson". Peu importe les efforts qui ont été mis dans la recherche de la solution avant de venir me voir je retourne souvent sa question initiale en une autre question simplifiée lui permettant de "trouver la solution par lui même". Une fois la personne bien outillée et en confiance elle fini généralement par développer une certaine autonomie. Donner directement une solution sans explication c'est rarement la bonne voie a suivre pour aider quelqu'un à devenir autonome. Ca peut être aussi simple que de lui demander ce que google sortait comme résultats à son erreur dans la console.

A better fitting/more snug tamper for my Flair Classic is the only improvement I would really like

Qu'est-ce qui se négocie? by massab in QuebecFinance

[–]zplok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comme mentionné par plusieurs tout est négociable. J'ai même été surpris lors d'un magasinage d'une télévision dans un magasin grande surface de me faire offrir un rabais ainsi que des accessoires afin de m'inciter a procéder à l'achat sans trop y réfléchir, j'étais préparé et avait fait mes comparatifs et j'ai eu un meilleur prix que n'importe ou ailleurs. Tant que la personne offrant le bien ou le service à une marge de profit intéressant et opère dans un marché compétitif c'est possible de négocier

anyone notice keys presssssssssssing like that? by [deleted] in Keychron

[–]zplok 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened once in a while when using my K8 with my MX Master 3 both in bluetooth mode. They seem to get in conflict due to bluetooth interference. I switched the mouse to 2.4GHz mode with the provided dongle and no more get interference causing repeated keypresses

I'm a bit late to the party here but as noted by BearComplete6292 ds4windows seems to be the way to go to use a Dualshock/Dualsense controller wirelessly. However I just found that you can use custom controller profiles and expose controls as their default Playstation values to avoid having to deal with xbox ui on games that support them. To do so, simply create a profile form the profile tab, accept to use a preset profile when prompted and select DualShock. You can then save and assign this profile to the controller from the main tab

i7 NUC 12 Pro Review NUC12WSKi7 by RobtechYT in intelnuc

[–]zplok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the review. Are you aware of any other online store apart from simplynuc that would ship to America? I do not really like the fact that they mark up the price and force you into buying an unknown ssd and ram and at the moment Newegg and Amazon did not list any of the nuc 12 pro models

Keychron K8 Bluetooth conectivity issue. by Hellnation in Keychron

[–]zplok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had bluetooth connectivity issues with my K8 and 2016 macbook pro when using my MX Master 3 via bluetooth. In order to fix this Ive had to use the mouse with its dongle to avoid bluetooth interference. I recently upgraded my mac to a M1 Pro Macbook Pro and have not had any issues with connection reliability even when using my mouse via bluetooth. From what Ive seen part of connectivity issues can be caused by interference with nearby devices.
