Excellent work on finding out the definitive lubricants they used! :D I've tried a wide amount of lubes on Alps switches before, including lithium soap ones, silicon oil, krytox, and a whole bunch of others. They didn't help much, or actually made it actively worse. nvDQKUwBy_8 However, I have NOT t...

Already done by Datahand 26 years ago.

Really? xD I thought they were just microswitches!

This is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen. Someone 3D-printed magnetic levitation switches with adjustable tactility and travel. Also, it's analog-Hall effect. And hot-swappable. And it's contactless. Jeez! The creator is called Riskable and he called them Void switches and I'm DEFINI...

Today we look at the extremely anticipated Model F77 repro keyboard by Ellipse! There's so much to say about this keyboard, so it turned into a quite lengthy review. Hope you enjoyed the video!

HHHHHHNNNNNNGGGGGG

THAT'S AMAZING

Thanks zrrion!

Oof. That looks exquisite =o .

Oof! You set that board some stern competition. Stiff is definitely not the right word in this context! Getting done over by both vintage and modern rivals? Ouch. Do love the caps though. Cherry’s doubleshots and dyseubs are timeless, unlike those truly vintage MX blacks. Now to try and forget that...

Hey Chyros: have you ever reviewed Nixies?

(Expects to see self shown right up with Nixies appearing in this very vid. Here’s to hoping! )

...Kinda xD . I reviewed a Nixdorf with a few keys left as Nixies, the rest were substituted MX blacks. Was part of a deal.

Today we take a new look at vintage Cherry MX Black switches! This includes a comparison between them and other switches, both vintage and old. Hope you enjoy the video!

This thing is just effortless in its looks and classiness .

[…] As [Chyros] said 'imself, he's not making videos purely selflessly and for the good of the community, that's a secondary thing that happens to go with the territory. He's making videos because he likes making videos. […] So apparently the revenue aspect of being an "influencer" does not play th...

But calling someone who disagrees with you an insignificant spec of dirt not worth your time of day is cold. It shows that Chryos doesn't value criticism or the people that watch his videos. I feel like I should address this so as not to create misunderstanding here. What I meant by that is that at...

thinking of picking up one of Unicomp's new Ms just to try it out. Then I might go a little more vintage. Great starting point. If they were making them 10 years ago, I'd have grabbed one for myself and could* have been quite delighted. Compelling price. *Depends how janky it is when hooked up to a...

TLDR; How dare you to put opinions in your reviews! :evil: :lol: Seeing as you're here, Chyros: how are you getting along with the Unicomp SSK? We're just talking about it on another thread, and I brought up the issues you described in your review. Can't remember exactly what they were, though, jus...

Personally, I preferred the knicker-knotting drama of the lube thread. It took it to another level, y'know? And lubed!

Haha, yeah, but it's still mildly amusing, isn't it? xD

I didn't create any drama, I just showed how you were talking out of your ass on a topic you don't have any knowledge of. There's no drama, you think it is because you've grown to shell yourself at every criticism against you by "trolls" (read as anyone you disagree with). It's fine that you have y...

This goes for several other DT members as well. Truth be told, I stopped caring about DT a long time ago. I never really read it anymore because it's all drama. Arh, I don't think that's entirely fair. I learn a lot from people here, and most of them seem genuinely helpful. Don't you think that's i...

Hahaha I didn't read any of that, but it's always funny to see how much my videos upset you :lol: . That's such a sad sight, not only can you not make good content, you also can't take any form of criticism. Hope you enjoy creating, interacting and more than anything enabling an ignorant audience (...

I'm not sure which I like more - the video or this thread.

Ah man, DT is a thousand times better for drama than reddit is. Let that sink in for a second xD .

good god, that is by far the worst video you've made, I usually don't like them for a few different reasons but this one takes the cake. @ 9:12 ... now to me making your keyboard a fraction bouncier sounds like one of the most pointless things anyone ever came up with. Seriously guys, if plate boun...

Today we look at Glorious' new GMMK Pro! With a whole bunch of extras, no less. And aso the much-requested Glorious Pandas. Hope you enjoy the video!

I would've thought that F's would take a dip in value with the coming of Ellipse's new ones.

I'm quite sure I'll never do another video about a generic, cheap keyboard again xD . I'm quite picky what I review nowadays, as I don't plan to make that many more videos, so I want to make them count.

But your ultimately devious motive is to mislead them, as they have such respect for your product engineering nous, so you've always something to complain about! If they made a thoroughly good keyboard, think of the video! No, no, much better they screw that pooch good and royal like. Woof! :lol: I...

"It's good now." Well, for certain values of good. I could never stand those goddamn legends for a start. And a wobbly wrist rest? C'mon man! The most serious issue is the USB stutter. Care to try plugging it into an iPad or a Mac? Curious what they've fucked up there exactly. :lol: When I see a Ra...

Today we look at Razer's hew v2 Huntsman, the analog version of the optoelectric Huntsman I've reviewed previously. This ought to be quite something.... and as it turned out, it was! hope you enjoy the video!

All XT keyboards are Keyboard ID: 0000. They have no way to tell Soarer’s converter otherwise. Unidirectional data stream. An XT keyboard just shows up and does all the talking. You can’t ask it anything. Can someone paste a full log output of an working xt keyboard using hid_listener. I really wan...

That's not super weird. XT keyboards handled lock lights themselves, because the XT protocol was unidirectional. The computer couldn't tell it what mode it was in, so it just counted the amount of times you pressed the lock lights. It's pretty easy to desync them. What is weird is that it's not work...
