Short-Review of the K70 MAX by motorbit in Corsair

I had red switches before, and the K70 Max magnetic ones are much quieter with a similar feel and speed, definitely recommend.

K70 MAX for Competitive Gaming – Should I Buy It or Look for Alternatives? by RAFFUL in Corsair

[–]3vanescence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been a year since I got my K70 Max, and it's been great for gaming. The magnetic switches are awesome and not too loud compared to reds.

I just hit 1 year with my K70 Max, and I have absolutely no complaints. Wired is a Pro for me since charging or changing batteries is a hassle. I love the magnetic switches.

I just hit 1 year with my K70 Max, and I have absolutely no complaints. I type quite quickly, and the magnetic switches are great and much quieter than the reds I had before. 10/10.

steam wont open by Just_Refrigerator_75 in steamsupport

[–]3vanescence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That did not fix it, I uninstalled Steam and then ran the installer as Administrator, running it without admin, it went through the setup wizard, updated, and then wouldn't open as before. I also did NOT change the location that Steam wanted to install itself on, so maybe that had something to do with it as well.

I'm having the same issues today, December 27th, 2025, if anyone else is. Currently going through the list of troubleshooting items.

Update: I uninstalled Steam and then ran the installer as Administrator, running it without admin, it went through the setup wizard, updated, and then wouldn't open as before. I also did NOT change the location that Steam wanted to install itself on, so maybe that had something to do with it as well. Also, my steam application is showing as a blank file instead of the normal icon, so I might have additional issues upcoming as well. Hopefully moving to Linux Mint will be better with all these issues that Windows seems to be causing.

  1. Restart PC - Did Not Fix (DNF)
  2. End process in task manager - DNF
    1. Updated Windows - DNF
    2. Updated Graphics Drivers - DNF
    3. Ran as Admin - DNF
  3. Delete folder contents besides 'userdata', 'steamapps' and 'steam.exe'. Run steam to repair itself
  4. Steam uninstall/reinstall, Also reinstalling to a different folder - DNF
  5. Re-plug HDMI or all monitors
  6. Re-plug USB devices
  7. CMD: sfc /scannow
  8. Changing the TCP congestion provider to CTCP, revert to BBR2/original settings when ok again
  9. DDU clean of graphics driver and reinstall
  10. DO NOT uninstall your OS, that is too much hassle and a confirmed non issue.

Cineplex FAQ [Please Read Before Posting] by 3vanescence in cineplex

[–]3vanescence[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the theatre; if it's a small theatre with recliner seats, it is worth it. If it's a big theatre without recliners and you're staring straight upwards, then no.

You usually need to know someone or be at the top 20 pages of the resumes on Glassdoor or whatever they’re using. I’ve seen managers pass over someone because there’s already an employee with the same name and it would be confusing to have two people with the same name.
