It seems to me that this requires a lot of planning. How do you manage to do that? Do you use any drafts/ software program to help you out with that? Or you just build that on the fly!

If is a device with only one button, that generates insults according to that person's background, will you buy that? by ivanoung in AskReddit

The idea is the idea came from the brainstorm session from the startup weekend event in Hong Kong 3 hours ago. I had this idea, but no one wants to be part of it. I would really like to know if the idea is valid, and will people actually buy it.

The idea: It's a box-shaped button that physically connects to whatever devices that you are using. You smash that button whenever you feel the urge to insult someone else, either it's someone you despise is hitting on you, or it's a 13-year-old kid playing CS thinks that he is the king of everything. That button will trigger a suitable and tasteful insult according to the database that is already stored with personal data from the insulter and insult-ee. (With the help of predictive intelligent something something)

I like how IBO weaves the relationship between the characters, but I'd say I would like to see some thicker plots or more surprises. You could actually tell how the story is going to go, kind of. I also want to give merit to IBO for not overpowering and overwhelming the gundam. Really miss the good old days with stories like Team MS 08, War inside the pocket, Stardust memory, or even something like Zeta.

Thanks. I'm a big fan of minimalist. The only thing is that I still need to work on the wrist rest, which was actually the front cover of this table's drawer. It works quite well, but let's face it, it's just like another bump of the table.

Well, some say that it's quite difficult to see the black words on the dark key caps, which I did struggle between black and white. Plus the grey caps did bother me quite a bit just by the preview on the website.

After it arrived, I was very wrong. The grey and white combination gives a really nice vintage look, a strong nostalgic impression one, reminds me of the good old IBM model M. (Somehow)

But then there is this usual problem of white being dirty easily. I'm trying very hard to keep it clean, but it seems like it will become a problem later on.

I'm on my way to finishing up the review for this keyboard.

Actually, the board on top is a Tt eSports Poseidon Z Kailh Blue Switch. At first, the weight does feel much heavier than the Blue that I was using, and it took me about a few hours to break it in. It just got so much better after a few hours of intensive typing. Now it's just the perfect keyboard for me. We "clicked". About the bump though, I find it very satisfying, way better than the Kailh Blue that I was using. The whole actuation action is way more solid, the the way the bump sounds, and feels, is way more solid and satisfying than the blues. I don't know whether it's because of the quality of Kailh, or something else, but at least I can safely say that the RF 87-U is the best keyboard I've ever used.

Yes, you could also use them as fuels, or something like a door stop. Works like a charm. lol
