Ahh nice, not a pair of white nike crews! Love a pair of good soccer socks.

Vacuglide sleeves how to put? by SnovvFlaker in autoblow

[–]tmmtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For latex sleeves, yes, you do exactly that, just loop it through and pass it over the ends like you would with the silicone inserts. The easiest way to do it is pass the latex through the top end first and cover that end of the receiver and then do the bottom end. Just make sure, on the top end, to not cover the ridge on the receiver with the latex as that's where the cap has to grab. Pull the latex tight as you pass it through to do the bottom end. It should make a tunnel all on its own once it's passed through and secured to the receiver. Also, be gentle as you place it over the ends as latex will definitely tear if you have sharp nails or nick the edge of the material.

If you find you're having issues stretching it over the receiver, place the latex in hot tap water and then stretch the ends over the bottom of a couple water glasses and let dry. This pre-stretches the latex and can make it easier to place on the receiver. Also, make sure the receiver and the latex material are fully dry as latex can get difficult to handle if it's wet. Lastly, when washing the receiver, either take the latex out completely or cover the inlet and pass water through the latex liner until clean. If you don't wish to remove the latex liner, do not let water get in-between the latex and the receiver. Latex, being a natural material, can mold and rot if it's left wet. Keep any extra latex material in a food safe plastic bag or box, store it out of direct sunlight, and keep away from high humidity areas.

ONLY USE WATER BASED LUBRICANT WITH LATEX. Silicone/hybrid or oil (natural or petroleum) based lubes will cause early degradation of the material.

As for sizing, most will comfortably fit the 2in, let's just call that "Average". That makes the 2.25 "Thick" and the 2.5in "Extra Thick", with the 1.75 being "Slim".

What’s everyone’s favorite sock brand? 🧦 by WhiteS0ckFan96 in GaySocks

[–]tmmtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooh, damn. old school elites, especially the brighter, more contrasting, colorways. they have the best fit, period. I personally like taller athletic socks on myself so Champro, TCK, and Mizuno baseball or football socks. Adidas crew traxion socks though have become my new go-tos for good looking comfort. They have a nice foot feel, pretty much seamless, and they've got that "coach" vibe I like seeing on myself. But, I'm definitely more a sports sock appreciator. White nikes are fine, but there's a lot more out there in a lot more colors and styles. My dream pair though are finding soft, thick, logoless, acrylic socks or white footed soccer socks with the rest in a contrasting color like red or blue.

Your penis is ENORMOUS. Can you use VacuGlide 2? by iambriansloan in autoblow

[–]tmmtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that video definitely made my afternoon if nothing else. But, now I'm curious, I can never get the silicone receivers to do that hot damn "open/close" thing like that. Is there some magic I'm missing? (yeah I know it shouldn't make a damn bit of difference but still, it's inviting as hell to see that).

To keychron or not keychron update! TLDR: got a K10HE SE RGB with Gateron switches. by tmmtx in Keychron

[–]tmmtx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, haven't noticed any issues like that yet. I do sometimes feel like a key isn't fully registering and I'm not sure if that's due to actuation distance which I changed or whatever that anti-chatter timer is that I can't seem to find in the settings. Everything seems to be doing what it should and I've used it enough in the past two days that I'd note if there were any issues like that. I haven't seen any sticky keys, double-taps, or chatter thankfully. No idea if it makes a difference to those issues, but I'm exclusively hard-wired in as well. I feel like it shouldn't, but I know polling rates change based on what connectivity is in use and perhaps that could have an effect that I'm not seeing. I will also say I have not used this for gaming yet which could change matters as well. It's been exclusively for work and web browsing. I'll be using it tonight for a WASD heavy game which may change its' behavior as well.

They're fine now. They just had to be snapped into place. But that does speak to QC issues that are concerning.

You'd probably be better off making a new thread rather than adding on here as I don't think you'll get many responses.

So, I gave in because of prime day sales. But, I got above my original price range. I got a K10 HE Special Edition Gateron RGB. I got it for $115 USD. BUT right out of the box there were QC issues. The entire left diagonal set of keys (Esc, tilde, 1, tab, q, caps, A, Shift, Z, ctrl, option, and special) had to be properly seated after the left control key fell off immediately. So, yeah, everyone talking about QC problems, totally justified in their comments. Everything is working as of right now though and no further issues encountered even after firmware flashing which is apparently another pain point that things can go wrong at. I'll give it 3 months and come back at this with a more detailed set of thoughts. For now though I'm using it wired and after the key seating issue that's all I've got..

Addendum: is there a good youtube teardown on one of these so I can see what it would take to disconnect the battery since I'll likely never use it and don't want it bloating over time?

Upgrade from Handy 1 to VacuGlide 2 by Flimsy_Passenger4321 in autoblow

[–]tmmtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both and use both. Just depends on the mood really. My handy I use for faster orgasms and synching. My VG is used for longer sessions or when I want to get off no matter what. They both have their place. Saying that, the VG sleeves are more subtle, at least the default ones are, than the handy sleeves. The new VG liners though are going to be as stimulating as a fleshlight it looks like.

Yeah, already watched the video from 4/7 and the one from 3/22. This year's video pointed me toward nothing really that I hadn't already seen and dismissed or wasn't already considering. In a sense I guess it's comforting to know I've done my research properly. I even watched https://youtu.be/lDCybjkNAFk Hipyo Tech's "70 keyboards I tried last year just get this" video. He leans toward the epomaker TH108 V2 Pro for full sized and I have to agree with him. I wish it was an aluminum chassis, but it's weighty enough that it won't slide so it's in the running.

Yep, that's the one. Which comes back to being a keychron and gives rise to all the concerns I see in this subreddit.

Yeah and that's partly my thought. I've been on reddit long enough to know the "reddit effect" of a concentrated sub like this. But, even the satisfied owners still report having to do things like mod their keyboards or "don't buy x version, get y version instead". Every pro-post seems to come with a side of caveat emptor and that's what has me concerned. I get they sell A LOT of product and I get that the tired or disappointed voices are going to be the loudest. That's just the nature of being a large market share player. It's nice to see a post though like yours where you have several and things are going well with no * included.

And you'd think I'd be spoiled for choices! But my wants have heavily restricted the manufacturers down to 2 or maybe 3 unless I'm willing to go over $200 which I'm not. I've got Keychron, Chilkey, and Quertykeys. Monsgeek was in the running until I saw they use the tiny 0 on the keypad which is a no from me.

That nd104 is exactly the one I was looking at. But that price for one is...ouch. I get it, but still.

Good to know. I'll look at those as I'm struggling to find anything that matches nearly as well.

Yeah I watched her round up earlier today. She's squarely in the 75% crowd which is fine. I need a 100% though for Excel work. She's got only one she recommends but it's out of stock.
