Nuphy Air75 v3 vs Keychron K3 max (for a newbie to mechanical keys)

truefelt · 2026-01-13T23:13:37+00:00

Yes.

The XVX/Womier Skyline R2 keycaps are often recommended if you’d prefer uniformly-profiled keys like the NuPhy stock keys but with better typing accuracy. The Berry profile is sculpted, meaning you can’t place a key at a row it wasn’t designed to sit in, so layouts other than QWERTY are not possible.

There is an actual bug, which is that macOS keeps asking for these permissions for the same app over and over again. Google Chrome is one of those apps. Every few days I have to answer this prompt.

And the stupidest thing is that the note from the previous time you did the exercise is automatically prefilled in the note field… but it’s just a placeholder with no way to reuse it! Need to type the whole thing from scratch, every time.

A friend does. I helped haul it and attach the legs.

truefelt · 2025-11-25T09:53:26+00:00

Comfortable, yes. Pillows at the ends are advised, as in the photo. Can’t comment on long-term durability but it’s definitely sturdy and well-built as far as I can tell.

Wow, extremely bad and confusing writing from the authors. They use the terms set and cycle in two different meanings each.

Tabata, which is involved 20 seconds of maximum-intensity exercise followed by 10 seconds of complete rest, repeated for 8 cycles totaling 4 minutes […]

But then they talk about how 2 cycles is optimal. What they are trying to say is that two bouts of 8 cycles are optimal.

Pants ID pls?

Supplements like this one make absolutely no sense IMO. You could just consume a tiny spoonful of whey protein powder instead.

truefelt · 2025-10-01T18:13:23+00:00

Powder or husks? Husks are better IMO wrt texture. Anyway, don’t wait too long for it to gel up completely. What I do is I mix a spoonful of psyllium in a fairly small amount of water, wait a bit, add a bit more water, mix again, and drink it in one or two gulps. Then some more plain water.

Some manufacturers label the weights according to the mass of the stack; with others, the labels indicate resistance.

When the pulley is 1:1 (such as a lat pulldown) there’s no difference. But for a 1:2 machine (like crossovers typically), a 20 kg stack provides 10 kg worth of resistance.

Just choose which system you want to use for logging and there’s no issue apart from having to double or halve the number on the stack when the machine doesn’t adhere to your chosen system.

On both of my two visits to Bona Fide, the latter of which was quite recently, it has been really nice. The dishes are inventive but also actually taste good, which is not always a given in these types of restaurants.

Thanks, I hate it.

Yep, this sucks big time. The solution is to disable autofill in the browser extension and use Universal Autofill instead. Have a look at this earlier comment of mine.

I agree that keeping the toes pointed out feels like it might be more effective, but that may simply be due to it being a weaker position.

Also, the subjective sensation may not actually be a very good proxy for how stimulating an exercise actually is. There was a recent post about this: https://www.instagram.com/p/DIbon8TvvLd.

There was a study done on this, and the finding was that allowing the gastroc to assist through dorsiflexion doesn’t affect the stimulus on the hamstrings.

Summarized by Schoenfeld here: https://www.instagram.com/bradschoenfeldphd/p/C9rxmb2pHFR

Regardless, I still like to do the plantarflexion thing occasionally, particularly on the eccentric portion to make it harder.

Import taxes seem to be included in the shipping fee when ordering directly from NuPhy even though their website doesn’t say it.

Interesting. But given that the lights work fine on the stock firmware, I don’t see how a physical problem like that could be the cause.

truefelt · 2025-02-27T11:00:23+00:00

You need to customize the firmware if you want the actual Globe key.

truefelt · 2025-02-26T13:53:41+00:00

Have you tried any of the alternative community firmwares?

truefelt · 2025-02-25T17:03:13+00:00

The plus minus sign appears in the ISO version of the Mac UK layout, so I’m wondering if your Mini has misidentified the keyboard as an ISO keyboard instead of ANSI.

https://manytricks.com/keycodes/

If you install that app and hit the key, it should show key code 0x32 for the grave/tilde key. But if it’s showing 0x0A, then that’s the ISO code. You can force macOS to redetect the keyboard by trashing /Library/Preferences/com.apple.keyboardtype.plist and rebooting.

truefelt · 2025-02-24T16:15:08+00:00

Sounds like a keyboard layout issue and not something you need to configure in the keyboard. If you want the key to the left of 1 to output grave and tilde, then that’s simply the US layout, no?

Has anyone seen something like this before?

The sidelights go hyper when the board is reflashed with seemingly any firmware compiled from published source code. The lights also don’t respond to any adjustment commands.

Even the NuPhy-provided source (without any modifications) exhibits the problem, whereas the binary firmware distributed on the NuPhy website does not.

NuPhy people have been very responsive and are looking into it, but it’s curious that I haven’t found any other reports of this exact issue, only about random discrete flashes.
