Alps Plate Spring vs. IBM Beam Spring
Alps Plate Springs have been experiencing a hype bubble that I'm going to partially pop, as they are regularly compared to IBM Beam Springs. I'll go over my subjective experiences with them and note the single objective issue that cropped up. Later Alps Plate Springs, in my opinion, are a cross betw...

White Alps keyboards are pretty cheap, frankly. I'm sure you can find one here for next to nothing. You can also check out a vendor site that tends to have good deals:

That's actually a great price for a 780 Ti, which outperforms the 1060 and RX 580. AMD card prices are inflated due to their suitability for mining (though ASICs have really taken over that market), but NVIDIA prices are just high because... Fast. The 1060, for example, is within spitting distance o...

Bat poop helped the early US space program
Check this out. Scatological humor aside, it's an amazing use for guano.

Because international shipping is expensive, slightly risky, and time consuming. My boss isn't willing to shoulder those things because the majority of our readers are US-based. Edit: I don't think it's a bad decision, to be clear. At one point our readership was 70% US-based. The demographics are c...

Well... It isn't like you can blame Daniel for not knowing about something that no longer exists. He certainly called out a perceived absence of proof. That said, expecting anything from him other than rigorous skepticism and assumptions of lacking documentation would be rather silly. Very few peopl...

I second Swift's statement. A collection topic with regular updates that cover non-exceptional keyboards is fine. Single topics for exceptional keyboards/keyboard projects are fine. But M15s and Unsavers are pretty well documented. Join the M15 owners' topic (I started that topic) and start/manage a...

The small space bar chunk uses a thinner wire stabilizer, whereas the wide one uses a normal wire stabilizer. They both use traditional M stabilizer slots on the barrel frame.taylorswiftttttt wrote: ↑What type of stabilizers do the spacebar and erase eaze key use?

Pardon the potato pics.

My rating system only rates what is there, not what isn't. If a keyboard doesn't have full programmability or some other feature, I don't judge it based on what it doesn't have. Features are so subjective and personal that I can only judge the implementation of what IS there. Not aesthetics or its s...

Velocifire EVM01 & EVM02 Vertical Mice
They're remarkably cheap, leaning toward impulse buy territory. Overall comfort is pretty high so long as your wrist is on a smooth surface or held above your desk. http://gomechanicalkeyboard.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/velocifire-evm0-featured.jpg Read GoMK's review to learn more: http://gomech...
