Makes perfect sense. China can't force the world to buy their spyware-laden keyboards if pesky little forums like this keep resucitating vintage keyboards and putting them to good use.

Well, the site is not losing my login every few minutes anymore, so I'll call this a step in the right direction.
Besides, the idea that Cloudflare determines I am, indeed, a Human being provides me with a modicum of comfort.

Re: Corsair K70 Core review (Corsair MLX Red)
Come to think of it, if those "MLX Red" feel more like MX blacks or even stiffer, perhaps these Corsair switches' actuation point may have actually been 0x45g, but the marketing dept. couldn't make sense of the "0x" bit.

All this mythology about banana-shaped spacebars unless they're ABS is a distortion of the truth. Damn right. Lately, GMK has been producing ABS bananas and passing them off as "within tolerance".
