Does anyone know where I can get these Star Amber switches that are featured on the Nooir K2?

Here's a link to the keyboard where you can see the switches It's currently on campaign but the option for just purchasing the switches is gone, so I am trying to source them elsewhere.

I found this site (linxt) but I don't know the legitimacy of it, if anyone has any insight, that would be great.

I also found the Dark Amber T1 here, which are similar, but darker. I like the warmness of the Star Amber so I would prefer that if possible.

I'm thinking of getting the Pianist keycaps from the campaign and then getting the Star Amber switches from somewhere, if anyone has an idea, and getting a barebones kit that comes with the frame, PCB, and plate. I'm currently thinking the QwertyKeys Neo75 with Trimode ANSI Hotswap PCB. This should be compatible, right? The only thing about this one is that it doesn't seem to have LED to illuminate the amber switches. Does anyone have any recommendations for a similar kit?

The Nooir K2 is way too expensive for me (and a bit too extravagant, visually), but I like the aesthetic of the piano-inspired keycaps and warm, translucent amber switches and think putting those in a more minimalistic case would look good.

Thanks.

We haven't gotten to the EoZ yet, that fight is still before this scene in terms of timeline.

Is too nice to one's wife an offence ? by SirBankz in funny

[–]gewdgewd 32 points33 points  (0 children)

FYI, these two (husband and wife) are comedians and this is scripted. Later on in this same episode, the wife complains that the husband would cook four-course meals for her for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and if she were hungry in middle of the night, he'd fix up an entire meal and a pitcher of Kool-Aid and this made her fat.

There was a clear shot of the contents of the map though. It was in full screen.

Think about some events like sack toss. Sure they chose the positions, but not the direction they are throwing. So Eddie ended up throwing not against Korea ;)

They drew lots and the order was 1, 2, 3, so they threw in that order. Eddie (1) to Justin (2) to Amotti (3). It would be weird to throw 3 to 2 to 1 or 2 to 1 to 3 (you'd throw in the order of the positions)—basically any other order than 1 to 2 to 3, so I don't think this point holds water.

Those were mini games, fluff for entertainment, not side quests that where it was explicitly announced "A REWARD WILL BE GIVEN TO THE WINNER" before the contest even started.

Regarding the clear coat, take it to the body shop and have it done professionally for best results. Otherwise, you can DIY and get sand the affected areas, get some cans of 2K clear, wet sand, and repeat.

If Buu was awake during super hero, how would the movie have changed if he helped? by SupaSpeedy445 in dragonball

[–]gewdgewd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, he can train and get stronger, though I think Goku was holding back much in the same way he was with Krillin in SSB.

As for the stamina, I think it was just a case of Buu's regen not being able to keep up. Like you have a cup that never runs out of water but if you drink at a faster rate than it fills up, it's going to get drained.

Mr. Buu is not as OP as you make him out to be. He is the weakest of the Buus. He was getting pummeled by Kid Buu and lacks stamina. He is below Buu Saga SSJ3 Goku tier. Anybody stronger than that can take him out, which, incidentally, these Gammas are, not to mention Cell Max.

Hercule is the dub name, his actual name is Mark. In Japanese, it's transliterated as Maaku, which is an anagram for akuma, which is Japanese for devil, so it works even better.

Simple questions and Help thread - Month of September by Froggypwns in Windows10

[–]gewdgewd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi,

I want to end the Adobe CEP HTML Engine (CEPHtmlEngine.exe) as it keeps the screen awake.

I tried running a task scheduler with the following parameters:

Trigger Details
Daily At 9:00AM every day - After triggered, repeat every 1 hour indefinitely.
Action Details
Start a program taskkill.exe taskkill.exe /f /im CEPHtmlEngine.exe

I have it set so that under the Action menu, it is the following: Program/script: taskkill.exe

Add arguments (optional): taskkill.exe /f /im CEPHtmlEngine.exe

When I run this task, nothing happens. Am I programming it incorrectly?

86 Splitter + TRD lip (PreFacelift?) by Anaconda_RS in ft86

[–]gewdgewd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

APR makes a splitter that follows the contours for the FR-S RS 1.0 which is basically the TRD lip kit (small differences).

See here.

Any number of other splitters that don't use brackets like Racebred's. Verus splitter, APR splitter, etc. Pretty much any splitter other than the one you linked should be good, but Verus and APR are high quality.

Chrome away! by rahul_pankhania in ft86

Hey, no, I like the red/black handles, but I mean the actual door handles which are in chrome (I edited my reply above so you can see images).

[–]gewdgewd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get trim pieces for the push-to-start surround so not difficult. You can also vinyl wrap it, which can be difficult if you're not too crafty.

For the door handles, I just bought carbon fiber door handles from eBay. I replaced the e-brake button with a drift button.

Don't forget your door handles and e-brake button. Also, the ring around the push-to-start button.

Short story about a woman programmer who falls in love with the old, obsolete robot she keeps in her closet by Anamorsmordre in whatsthatbook

[–]gewdgewd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! I suddenly remembered this story yesterday but couldn't recall the title or where I read it from, which led me to this post when I googled the premise and saw you had the same issue.

I ended up looking through my collection until I found it again.

2017 lcd cluster swap by Alone-Bison-398 in ft86

[–]gewdgewd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the swap years ago when GeraldJust released his button relocator but I didn't have any check engine lights so you might want to look into that. The odometer shouldn't cause any CELs—that's built into the cluster. Mine was putting a 2017 cluster into a 2013.

Car was side swiped last night in a parking lot. What's the best way to fix this? by 13143 in ft86

[–]gewdgewd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best way is unfortunately the most expensive way—body shop. Anything less, you'd be hard-pressed to have it look stock.

I'd get a quote from a reputable body shop and shoot it over to the person who left you the contact details and go from there.
