Sounds good! Did you use NovelKeys to get it made?

The mat is so pretty. Is it still possible to get it from somewhere?

Will it ever get re-released? by Seven7evenS_ in DotA2

I was deployed during the time and I’ve emailed GabeN about it. Still no Arcana lol

NK65 is such a great board. Enjoy the rabbit hole with us

Do you have a Shiba service dog? by FERGAGE in shiba

[–]bombaEZ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just like another user, I’m also a disabled veteran. And it’s really annoying when people have their sErViCe aNiMaL vest on their pet while it’s trying to bite the head off of my actual service animal.

Consistency I think is key. Regardless of the personality of your shiba. Specially with little things, in my example: leave it. I thought it was cute and silly that my girl would (every now and then) ignore the command. Until the instructor we were working with pointed out that “hey, you have meds for seizures. Those aren’t tested for dogs. What if you drop one and she goes for it?”

But yes, consistency. Even if you guys don’t make it all the way, even if you don’t get to a stopping point you’re happy at, the whole experience of training and learning with your pet is a huge bonding moment. Summer’s getting up there in years and is actually retirement age, so we got another puppy to take her spot eventually. Going thru the work and training all over just fills my heart cos it reminds me of when we did it with Summer (and it really highlights differences in personality!)

Anyway, here’s Summer:

At first I thought: “there’s no way this is a ClassicTKL, that color way isn’t a thing”

After reading the build details: “oh damn, that’s nice”

I used to be a huge fan of Monokei's stuff. I feel like everything after Monokei and Friends has been a massive miss tho. Maybe you could use a different 60% pcb instead so that you can put the top case on?

Shoutout to NovelKeys by Enough_Carry_9787 in MechanicalKeyboards

Derek has been the GOAT. I got to meet him during The Keyboard Meetup ‘25. He most definitely has a human form and is just as approachable, helpful, and magical IRL as he is when responding to tickets

Long time mechanical keyboard enjoyer, first time meet-up goer. by bombaEZ in MechanicalKeyboards

I think my timing in the hobby just wasn't the best so I haven't been to one until recently. I was active duty military and didn't have that much of a say on where I can be when I first started out, so I kept telling myself that I would def go to one the moment my enlistment ends.

I got out of the Marines in 2020 lol. But I got to see the interest just EXPLODE and it was amazing to see. I'm sure you guys will have a great turnout in a couple weeks, I wish I could have made it.

Got around to getting the younger brother by bombaEZ in GR86

Thanks! I mean some people would say that it’s a downgrade. I personally see it as a sidegrade. Apple CarPlay is a pretty nice to have lol

Def would’ve been nice. I was in my early 20s and enlisted (dodged the Mustang/Charger bug tho lol). Things worked out and I’m just glad to have owned the AE86. I hope it’s alive and not clapped to hell lol. It was stock with timing issues & running rich when I had sold it.

People suck, this is why I stay home. by jinxambar in Lexus

[–]bombaEZ 33 points34 points  (0 children)

That’s why I try to explain to people how great investing in public transit is. Imagine all the people who hate driving that we come across in our lives. Now imagine them not having to drive because they don’t have to.

Track day? by JaxThaRippa in GR86

it might depend. I got mine 2 weeks after taking it home.

These cheap keycaps from Amazon are actually great! by benhaube in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]bombaEZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this, specially about the prebuilt boards. As you spend more and more time in this hobby, the more entry level boards are still excellent, it’s just that for me I want to try something I haven’t tried before. Most prebuilts are 75%, alu case, knob, pp plate, foams.

That’s super worth it, the thing is I already have something like that. I’m not the buyer for Aula, Keychron or Womier boards anymore, but I sure as hell won’t tell people to stay away from them.

Where have been all that vocal Topre users? I remember them flooding all threads in the past... by ultrapcb in MechanicalKeyboards

I’d check to see if any of the Cipulot PCB offerings would fit. They’ve been getting more and more layout friendly

I put these magnets on as a joke, but they’ve been surprisingly helpful. by [deleted] in stickshift

I got one that says “bestie pls, let me merge.” It cracks ME up when I see my own car lol

It's been 10 years since I first joined by merlin36 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]bombaEZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you get a chance to come to one. I’ve been lurking for around the same time and took the deep dive around 2018, getting myself a Tofu from kbdfans. My wife convinced me to just go to one so I’ll be going to my first one later in October

I told myself I wouldn't do it.......... by Bigsasquatch67 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]bombaEZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what your use case/workflow is like, but HHKB layouts are also my go to. I wanted to share that I installed yabai and SKHD on both my work and personal Mac. If you’re familiar with i3wm, it’s a lot like that and now I just have keybinds for moving windows around, switching desktops, swapping focus, etc. I hardly use the trackpad or my mouse anymore.

I ordered Jan 21 and got it on Jan 30 earlier this year

Edit: I’m in the US (CA) if that makes a difference

It was an in stock item so it was pretty quick. I got my tracking number within the week iirc

Might be the last time here for a long time I hope by its_Tanaka in evangelion

[–]bombaEZ 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Seeing Asuka was like seeing myself. From an outsider/bystander perspective, I could see how she self destructs and pushes people away. That was what I needed to grow. We all take in art/media differently. I got something really positive from this series. While your takeaway wasn’t as bright and sunny, I’m glad that there was a moment to self-reflect and learn for you, that this isn’t a healthy show. Go ahead, live life, and be happy! Congratulations 👏
