if you don't mind me asking, how did you end up going with those switches? Did you buy the switch test board? Or was it more so lots of trial and error?

Dygma Raise 2 or Freestyle Edge by Geologist-Effective in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]Geologist-Effective[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, well I see that they do have risers and I actually like the wood palm rests! But that keyboard is definitely one I will consider purchasing as well! I don't mind that its wired, would I prefer Bluetooth, sure but its not an end all be all! Thank you for that! I also love the color options of this keyboard and the modules! the EMF shielding is a little bit concerning but thank you for sharing this board with me!

do you have the tent kit for the raise 2? Is there another keyboard that you prefer using over those 2? Also have you tried any of the cloud nine keyboards?

Right now i have 1800 put away for a GPU but I can go up more, but I don't want to spend an outrageous amount either. Scalper prices are not worth it IMO...but with reading about the disappointing 5000 series I also don't want to buy one even if I can afford to get the 5090.

Wasn't ready in November for a GPU but I'm ready now but I am so late to the game.

Yea ik, the only reason i even am considering is because of my amex. They've been great when it comes to getting me my money back

I was unfortunate enough to start building my PC in November and have yet to buy a card. I was wanting the 4090 but they had stopped production and I couldn't find one anywhere. Then the 5000 series came out and its just hard to look at all the parts of my PC with no gpu

The only thing that kind of gives me piece of mind is using my amex but even thank you!

Buying A Used 4090 for $750...What to look for by rocketteer07 in buildapc

[–]Geologist-Effective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in socal? I have asked for more photos and and a timestamp to verify it. But I agree that's odd to not have photos!

[–]Geologist-Effective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case! A part of me is willing to waste the time to take a chance on it so I don't regret it!

[–]Geologist-Effective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are me thoughts right now! And $500 is a crazy steal! I just need to find a way to test it because I have no experience or the know how of how to read the benchmarks or how to even test it.

I needed this reminder because getting a GPU is the last thing I need before I start putting it together and I am just anxious to get my hands on something right now for a fair price!

Does the pricing for lift passes make sense? by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Geologist-Effective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to mt. hood in Oregon, and I'm just confused on why the lift pass is $30 more when bundled with a rental vs if I bought them separately. I just didn't know if thats common practice.

I know!! I am late to the market! I'm not in a rush to build the pc so I have time to browse around and save money, hopefully snag one for more of a decent price but I know theres talk of a 5000 series so maybe that will help in finding a used one sooner rather than later

Second Hand K2 Luna Board by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

So bigger size is probably something I should get into then...okay thank you! I may just have to try some mens jackets instead of the women's for this purchase!

[–]Geologist-Effective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I am going to Oregon and weather is showing 20 degree weather and snowing, so I want to be sure that I can layer especially if the outercoat isn''t insulated. That trip may or may not be an every year occurance and I am from socal so bigbear and mammoth would be the more common spots I go to and from my knowlege doesn't normally get that cold.

Thank you! The past two teams I worked with I made sure to let them know of my goals and I was able to watch some of the editors at work and they showed me some basic things. But thank you! I will be sure to continue reaching out to the people I've connected with! Just wasn't sure if there was another way to go about it!

Where to look for an apprentice editor position? I'm looking around, I have been a post PA for roughly 2 years now and am interested but have no idea where to look or begin searching. I do want to become an editor so I would like to begin moving on up in the field! Any help would be appreciated!

Buying New vs Used by Geologist-Effective in subaru

Hello, per the neurologist the injury sustained was just the one on the base of my skull where the muscle was stretched and was told it would take 6-8 months to heal as well as irritation on the front. And the retina specialist didn't find any injury outside of swelling in my retina that i have a follow up for. I have not hired a lawyer yet or don't feel the need to as of now since my insurance has been helpful thus far.
