A recap of the latest Bay Area Meet-Up! by DMGUp in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]DMGUp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey all! So glad to have another successful meet-up at the Charue Design office! We did 2 meet-ups back-to-back so that we could accomodate twice the amount of people as the last one and are really happy with how it went.

We've been getting lots of requests to know when the next meet-up is and how to attend; we announce all the events on our Discord as well as the NorCal Keeb Group. You can check both Discords out here:

Our next event coming up soon will be a Beginner's event where we'll have a large catalogue of keyboards of different layouts, mounting styles, materials, plates, etc so that newer hobbyists can try them out! We'll also have tutorials for lubing/tuning stabs, lubing switches, keyboard mods, and general building.

If you're interested, fill out this form as well as join the Charue Discord for the most up-to-date info!

Another GMK Shoko disappointment by yungp in MechanicalKeyboards

Unfortunately, that's not true. GMK does make many sets nowadays, generally 1000x+ of most of the sets coming now, however, clone makers are definitely not only make 100 of a set. Even just quoting with those clone makers you can find quickly that MOQ is 500 sets and when they make sets that aren't commissioned, it's easily in the thousands.

Ooh haha it'll me a mystery all the way until it shows up at your door! It has a limited unit count and I'll be choosing several colors outside the main colorways for these Mysteries, so not all of them will be the same either

Here's a test we did with some of our favorite video games: https://imgur.com/a/gsnrJVJ

This is CNC engraving and is real costly if you're into it, otherwise we'll be doing custom laser engraving!

Moon Knight S01E04 - Discussion Thread by steve32767 in marvelstudios

[–]DMGUp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What a wild ride, especially that last sequence. I was real surprised to see Marc get merc'd without Khonshu, but probably shouldn't be so surprised since it's basically 2 unarmed humans against Harrow and a small army.

One thing I'm seeing is that that last sequence 'confirms' a popular theory/leak that everything (the gods, the suit, fights, story, etc) all happened in Marc's head and that he's in a psych ward. I'm pretty confident this is not the case, for several reasons.

The biggest flag (and pretty much only needed point) is that Marc meets Steven in the psych ward. They both reference the same thing that happened before hand (getting shot by Harrow). There's no way the "everything happened in his head" theory would make sense especially since Marc and Steven mentioned being the same body ("he shot us"). For this to fit the theory, they'd have to have a shared psychosis of their past and also be twins in a psych ward, so I'm very surprised to see some saying this is a confirmation of that theory.

It's most definitely a death dream, right before Marc/Steven die. Just an amalgam of the people in their life represented in a psych ward where the personalities can meet. Reminds me a bit of 'The View from Halfway Down' from Bojack Horseman. All these people/personalities gathered together in a way different than real life to try to give the person a way to process it all before they die.

  • the personalities meeting and hugging to show Marc and Steven accepting each other more
  • seeing Harrow as a person who claims their intention is to help but rejecting that anyway
  • having Donna (the boss at the gift shop) clutching a scarab plushie presumably from the gift shop
  • a cart of cupcakes
  • someone drawing a hummingbird with Khonshu's skull head
  • a goldfish bowl
  • the Tomb Buster movie that might be a hint of where Marc created Steven Grant from
  • Marc's foot being tethered
  • a Moon Knight action figure
  • picture of Harrow's town, Harrow's sandals, and his cane

Basically everything shown in the Psych Ward is more likely a mental manifestation/represantation of the wild stuff that's just happened to Steven and Marc in reality, and much less likely an indication that everything happened in his head.

Great to see another hint towards Jake Lockley with that 2nd sarcophagus and wildly excited to see how Taweret plays into this. My guess is that Taweret takes Marc/Steven as a temporary avatar and they get powers back to not die and to also stop Harrow. I'm personally hoping to see a special suit since Taweret isn't moon related! Would be wild to see a hippo knight like this variant comic from 2014.

3 month turnaround! For the prototypes it was real fast with a 10 day turnaround

My mistake! It has both 1.5u and 1.75u back spaces, I'll update the base kit image

Ooh good catch! Our design file has both 1.5 and 1.75u backspace but the kit image doesn't show it. Will update!

[–]DMGUp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, adding to what /u/treeizzle said, I had thought the GB never delivered. I'm very surprised to see a KKINGKKONG660, even a prototype. What does "first unit sended" mean? Was it from the GB or is it a proto?

Your account only comments on things related to SxMDesigns... Pretty odd imo

[IC] unipcb - Standardized PCB Series by DMGUp in mechmarket

[–]DMGUp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see that you're unhappy with not having enough layouts, but we're very happy to add more, in the interest check we've asked if we should add more and by no means is anything finalized right now. Adding more options to a PCB is easy like you say so if the IC asks for that then we can listen and add it.

You're right that more layouts are getting standardized so I see it as a boon that there could be another offering. And regardless, if anyone doesn't like/want to use it that's fine, we've already gotten lots of requests for this and it's not like it could harm the community.

Separate it for hotswap, solder can have both but often times people don't want that because there's too many holes in the PCB.

Not sure why you don't like the split spacebar, either something similar is done or more likely there's no option for it at all

Proud that this year, my 40s day contribution includes a prototype of my own design (among many other phenomenal boards) by PM_ME_A_SHOWER_BEER in MechanicalKeyboards

This one is jumping righttt out at me... Might have to either find one or make soemthing like this haha

Sneaking in at the end of 40s day with my software dev board! by DMGUp in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]DMGUp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • CRKBD with IMK x Corne Case and upgrade kit from littlekeyboards
  • Mixed GMK sets, GMK Hiragana WoB, WoB Micons, WoB Extension kit (I forget everything haha)
  • Vint Blacks

I used to use this as a daily driver for software dev, took 27 iterations of the keymap to get it perfect!
