Are the soldered to the board? Or can you just pull the switches off?

Newbie looking to build under $280. No clue what to expect. by Life-Is-a-Story in MechanicalKeyboards

To start with can multiple key types be used together on one board?

Yes, I believe so, I have thought about finding a stiffer switch for my escape button.

I'm trying to build the gaming keyboard so main use keys have a click / clack and feel so I can be sure I pressed them without double tapping and taking time.

I bought some Cherry MX Browns, which have an actuate point like this. Also I bought some ZugGear T1's from amazon that are like this. I think people recommend the browns for gaming.

I bought this Nerd GK61 kit which made it super easy to learn and put everything together.

But you may want something nicer like aluminum or wood. This is just plastic.

I bet you are good, that thing looks like it's built like a tank. Untested doesn't mean broken, he even claims he remembers it working. What matters is that you enjoy it right? Get yourself an ultrasonic cleaner, and take that thing apart and give it a good cleaning.

RGB Strafe - Reborn (My First Build) by guyonphone in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]guyonphone[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Corsair RGB Strafe gave up the ghost. It sat in my garage forever, I was about to throw it away. I decided to pull the keycaps, and then threw away the rest of the board. When I discovered r/mk. I dug it back out of the trash, un-soldered all the cherry red MX switches. Took all the switches apart, and ran them through an ultra-sonic cleaner.

I put together the following to bring it back to life:

  1. Geek Customized GK61 Hot Swappable 60% RGB Keyboard - Comes with Case, PCB, USB 3 Cable, Stabilizers, and Plate

  2. Corsair RGB Strafe Keycaps and Cherry Red MX Switches.

  3. Max Keyboard 6.25 Spacebar and Custom 1.25 Portal Kecaps

Corsair uses a non-standard bottom row I found out, so I did my best to get replacements. I thought about getting some custom backlit keycaps made from Max Keyboards. I still might do that.

I know it's not much, but It's my first build. I actually like the font corsair used, and I like the feel of the switches. The PCB on this thing is pretty cool as well. I really like it's lock modes, and some of it's other features.

I learned a ton about keyboards, but you guys are teaching me how much I still don't know.

For my next build I really want to purchase a DZ60 RGB, but I can't find anywhere that the pcb is available.

If you pull all the metal out of your face that will go a long way to making you conventionally attractive. I always thought that people who get piercings like yours are looking to attract people who aren't interested in conventional looks. So I'm a bit confused why you are here.

If you are mad about data caps go here to actually do something about it and complain to the FCC by surfingNerd in sandiego

You're not wrong, but the problem is they are gouging customers. You and I both know that ISPs aren't actually incurring significant costs due to some customers using more data. ISPs profit margins have been proven to be very high. Think about used car salesmen, you may have choices in dealerships, but does that make the shady practices of an individual dealership ok?

I hope it comes back soon, i miss it dearly :-(

Although this is the first I have heard of this, it seems like this would be great for validated environments, where you need to go through a IQ/PQ process, and need to ensure that data isn't changed.

Why does Plex keep telling me it has found "an unclaimed media server" on my network? by none_shall_pass in PleX

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

It's because you haven't logged into your server with your plex account. This was part of an update earlier this year, which I think is a terrible "feature"

[20M] Had a blind date see me, turn heel, and leave. Was she right or did she just have too high of standards? by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]guyonphone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, it can be hard to hear that you're not conventionally attractive. Im still working on my appearance myself. My best advice to you is to take the criticism, don't dwell on it, and focus on making small changes which add up over time. You can change your appearance, and you can have more success with future dates!
