For switches:

Durock Shrimp or Gazzew U4 switches for slightly on the premium side. If you feel .65 per switch is a bit much, I highly recommend Haimu Whisper (.30 cents per) or Wuque WS silents - not as thocky as Shrimp or U4 but more comfortable to type on, imo.

Didn't even know that sort of site was a thing. I do have a few kits I want to pass onto people who will be able to use them. Thanks!

Received my Susu set and have to say I'm enamored with it, there's just something about the satin feel and the way it cups your fingertips is just so right - I have a tendency to lightly feather the home row in between typing/composing text and best I can put it: gentle gliding vs. skidding compared to GMK/DMK CYL. Photos posted online seems to really highlight the grains and it was my main concern as I have the original pbt MT3 /dev/tty and really disliked the gritty texture not to mention the height, but once I opened the box and ran my fingers over the Enter key I was sold. Also being thockier and deeper sounding on the down stroke is a plus. Did lose about 3-5 wpm testing on monkeytpe but it's to be expected as I'm a long time GMK CYL user so I expect a few days to get back to speed. Very pleased over all but slightly dreading rebuying some of the CYL coloways I really liked once designers start releasing their MTNU versions.

You definitely have a winner Matt3o, thanks!

And for people who goes: "ewww GMK...abs yuck" - No, it's pbt.

How do you like the MTNU? How's the height compared to CYL, any transition mistype(s)? Lovely setup really.

If it's anything like their mini pc business, it can be hit and miss - best to wait a bit. Seems their business model (at least on the pc side) is to pump out the latest trend and move on and not really fix any issues that crops up. Also they are based out of china so you might have to eat the shipping cost for any "fix".

Always liked Susuwatari but could never get myself comfortable with MT3 profile. So glad for the reminder, placed an order - finally going to get my own set of Susuwatari, thanks!

I'll toss another silent tactile into the ring: Durock Shrimp tactiles. I use Zilent 62g, U4 62g, and Shrimps interchangeably and like them the most for the consistency(least spring pings/scratchiness), smoothness, and bump.

Coconuts I can sort of get, but watermelons? Is it some sort of metallic taste?

[-] stardust@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I know pour over is seemingly the norm at the moment but I'm still chugging along with my 10 years old Bodum stainless steel french press. Tastes fine to me and keeps the coffee hot decently long. Though I've been pondering to do the additional step of pouring it through a Hario filter and see if it refines the taste any further.

It might not be a device/iOS issue? Have had the same number for about 20 years through Cingular/AT&T and was getting calls on a regular basis, particularly bad leading up to and during covid era (3-4 per day). Ported same number to tmobile earlier this year and spam calls have dropped to maybe one every other week - at most. My take then is that depending on your carrier screening or not pairing with carriers initiating the spam calls.

Right, but does the instruction include how much soap to add? hehe

[-] stardust@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

The question becomes, if you feel that the fruits need to be washed with soap - should you really be eating it?

Laneware L-pad

Haimu silent tactile switches

Novelties:

  • HolyOOPS Totoro aluminium cap

  • GMK Plum

  • GMK Camping

  • GMK Pono

  • GMK Hallyu

The macro pad itself is kind of meh, with some QC issues. Would not recommend it for the price considering how many other options are now available in that price range with more utility.

Definitely, especially if too early in the morning and my mind still churning sorting out stuff for the rest of the day. Or just plain stressed.
