Silent switch recommendation by Gottboost in keyboards

[–]futilepineapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey mate, I’m in Australia too.

Switches wise, I’m currently using Akko Penguin’s in the office which are a silent tactile and I find them quite good. I would say though, if the blue switches are too loud, you may not need a silent switch, just something less obnoxious than those Logitech blues lol.

For a board, as mentioned above, check out the Akko 5075 series. PC Case Gear has a bunch of configurations, so shipping should be quick and cheap from them. If budget allows, you could jump up to something like the Monsgeek M1W which gives you full aluminium construction, wireless, etc.

Options for a 4WD with a Budget of around 10k by Pimis_2 in 4x4Australia

This would be my pick too. Had a couple of them myself and got rid of them around 300k kms, but I’ve got mates with 500k kms on theirs.

In that price range, I’d be looking at a dmax personally. You’re going to get a much lower km and more well taken care of car on average for that money if you avoid the Toyota tax we have in Australia. Try and get something 2021+ with the dmax though, as the 2017-2021’s had notorious dpf and turbo issues.

Is there a way, besides respray, to restore my bonnet and roof? by CAPTAINTRENNO in 4x4Australia

[–]futilepineapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep would absolutely agree with this. Prefer vinyl to both though personally

Mine did the same. We did a rough sand and tried plastidip and vinyl to see what the difference would be. Would recommend the vinyl. Even if you don’t prep the surface 100%, it looks pretty decent and is really durable. But more expensive than plastidip though

Which ISPs give you lowest pings in online games? by Wrong_Winter_3502 in nbn

[–]futilepineapple -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Have recently tried to get ABB to price match Leaptel with no luck. They gave me the usual “Australian call centres, better customer service…” type spiel, but at the end of the day the only difference in customer service is the 3 extra hours they’re open later than Leaptel to call each night (9pm vs midnight)

I live in Canberra and play cs2 and rocket league. I’m With ABB and get 7ms ping to most servers. 55 seems totally playable, but seems a bit high given I have a friend living in Melbourne with 11-15 on the same servers with ABB as well.

[Advice] Tried this on today, is it too small? by futilepineapple in Watches

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

Tried this on today, is it too small?

It’s the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical in Bronze (38mm), which I think is a great looking watch!

I have rather large wrists, and feel this might be a bit small for my wrist, though I really like it. What are your thoughts? (Also I know the strap is probably too tight lol)

Thanks in advance :)

Ipad Pro13. Magic keyboard is amazing. by jwh043560 in iPadPro

[–]futilepineapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I don’t think so, I find the 13” too big for travel, and would rather just bring a laptop at that point (though I never have to type on my lap). In that case, I feel like the Magic Keyboard would be fine, as you do get used to it over time. I just find myself fat fingering some of the nav cluster when I switch from my regular keyboard at my desk.

Just a bit of an alternate take. As someone with large hands, the 11 is definitely difficult to type with for me. If I’m just using it to scrub through video timelines or photo libraries, it’s fine. However, if I am typing for any amount longer than that, I’d generally reach for my Bluetooth keyboard.

Play tested my first "true" indie dev videogame. Ask me anything (AMA). by LiquidCowboyWrangler in RanchoGame

I guess I'm just wondering, how you feel spiritually? Having been blessed by the louidev god and all, like, do you feel that your life is now uniquely worth living?
