hi, i'd just like to ask a different question, this time aluminium shops with CNC routers seemed rather common to find (e.g. those who make signboards may have them) i watched this video on using a CNC router to cut an aluminium sign https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5GzCdKhxmQ now my question is ar...

This entire thing is akin to a Budweiser product winning "Best Craft Beer". I’m pretty sure that the budweiser analogy would work only if a company like Dell won this category. Jelly key is still a very small artisan company and calling them out for making caps in amounts people want to buy them in...

6U spacebar please! :D But yes, a thing like this :p is it never ever gonna be good enough for you :lol: most would use a GH60 / SATAN PCB. I think this can only do HHKB style with 7U, right? I'm not aware of a widely available 60% PCB that supports HHKB-6U-spacebar layout. The 6U off-center spaceb...

Haven't made a decision jet but probably going back to countersunk screws like seen in the initial renderings. That's a pretty clever design! Would like to see countersunk screws or some very low profile ones though (like these: https://uk.misumi-ec.com/vona2/detail/110302280540/ ). WAIT, those "ul...

Love this, the felching Input Club doing it again, stealing another switch design and re-naming it as THEIRS :lol: . Simply stealing another design and calling it another name doesn't make it so, someone should let them know about that fact. Kind of reminds me of their MassDrop attack, claiming the...

Yeah, I agree that there is a difference, though whether massdrop would have given refunds is a whole another story. From the lack of any comment from MD on the stab issue I gather that what I:C said is accurate and then the only failure on I:Cs part is that they did not publicly denounce the quali...

I don't think that I:C could block the sale or production, so what do you think that they should have done to solve the situation if massdrop is ignoring their request on not having shitty stabs? The boards were manufactured by MD, not I:C and if MD decide to make it out of second rate shitty compo...

Massdrop and their utter shit crappy turd stabilizers. I usually only get them in their kits and just dump them. Still, this was offered and sold as an I:C product and now they shift the blame for weak spots to Massdrop. Claiming that a CNC alu case is automatically 100$+ and then adding hypothetic...

Also, why would they write the contract to be incomprehensible, if not to just employ more lawyers :lol: ? It isn't because it helps define potential outcomes for any opposing council, which every decent corporate lawyer agrees with. ALWAYS remember NOTHING is unwinnable, all commercial disputes ev...

Unless you are a contract attorney, the full document will have nuances that you won't pick up on. And it definitely won't be as seemingly straightforward as that excerpt. As stated above, until tried and precedent applied, any speculation is merely that. So in your mind, we would have the clearest...

So much of contractual agreements is about the intent of the parties, not the literal wording. Which is why I think the amendment clause is a red herring in this case. Based only on what has been made public, it seems like Massdrop was happy for Input Club to sell the switches in the I:C shop, and ...

As for my personal opinion, I really like that they did go for option 3. It is nice to see how petty the people at MD really are. For a couple switches they decided to ruin the only meaningful non keycap relationship that they had with the mk community. All information was not released (and probabl...

Note that they released one small section of a larger contract. Contract law does not work that way. if it did and was that clear cut, they would have filed claim already rather than taking this route. And the bullying is present even in the statement.

I have a working implementation done with nrf51. I'll be posting it to git in the following weeks. As for the nrf52840, the usb functionality is nice, but the 5v tolerant voltage input is unusable for battery operation due to its high q, a separate regulator is needed if you wish to use a rechargeab...

Don't bother with fluke unless you need to do some definitive measurements. For example the cheap ones from batronix are more than sufficient and are made out of quality components. On their site they list very clearly the actual resolution of their instruments and based on those you can decide if i...
