  1. That's not a very good attitude to have. Being complacent stunts intellect and potential progress. You do, however, have a good point. In a lot of cases, you shouldn't try to improve or change yourself for other people. You should do it for yourself.

      Ahh those files are thicc. https://www.amazon.ca/M7-Resolution-Lossless-Player-Bluetooth/dp/B07D7Z67F5/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=fiio+m7&qid=1628838777&s=electronics&sr=1-3

       

      That should be able to play whatever you throw at it but it is a bit over budget.

  4. Have you actually used Brown switches? All the Browns I've tried (Cherry, Outemu) felt like scratchy Reds, the bump was not noticeable during regular use. I looked options for you on Amazon Australia because I assume that's more convenient for you. Womier K66: https://www.amazon.com.au/Womier-Keyboard-Swappable-Mechanical-Crystalline/dp/B08B3GNC2J/?th=1 Epomaker SK61: https://www.amazon.com.au/EPOMAKER-Swappable-Mechanical-Programmable-Waterproof/dp/B096XFNBLT Royal Kludge RK61: https://www.amazon.com.au/Mechanical-Keyboard-Wireless-Bluetooth-Programmer/dp/B07P832XSX/ Out of the keyboards I've linked, I have the most experience with the SK61. It's a really good budget board: The stabilizers are alright (mine came factory lubed decently, but I still recommend that you do it on your own), and you can hotswap switches. Its software is horrible though; thankfully, it's optional.

    Marvel Movies

    Have you watched Loki?
  6. I liked the movie, but yeah, I did think it was kinda stupid. Why would you send people into the future? People who barely have any training at all. Even if they were 'scheduled' to die relatively soon, you're potentially changing the timeline for the worse, potentially accelerating the apocalyptic events. For example:
  7. I think you just came here to humble brag.
  8. The "best" keyboard is pretty subjective, as it depends mostly on your preferences. Royal Kludge RK61 is a pretty decent entry level keyboard.
  9. In my opinion, it's not a bad idea to go for something a little above what you need, just in case. Unless, of course, you're really tight on budget.
  10. What is this question asking? Which one do I use more? Which one do I hate more? Which one do I want to buy?
  11. In no particular order: The Mass Effect trilogy Deus Ex The Witcher 3 X-COM Pokemon Yellow Half-Life 2 God of War (2018) Those are the ones that come to mind right away.
  12. Yeah, if you like Cherry MX Blues, you'll get excommunicated for the rest of your life.
  13. Right click on the Speaker icon (I assume you're using Windows), click on "Sounds". On the little window that pops up, go to the "Recording" tab and make sure your Blackshark is the default device, it should have a green check mark on its icon. If it still doesn't work after that, repeat the same steps, but right click on your Blackshark mic under the "Recording" tab. Click on "Properties", go to the "Levels" tab in the new window that opens up, and slide that bar to the right. Some microphones will also have a dB slider (Microphone Boost). You can also make that higher, but keep in mind that boosting it up too high will make undesirable noise like static much more noticeable for whoever is going to listen to you. Maybe you've already tried that, but I don't know what exactly you mean by "like every solution". If you did literally try every solution, then just throw that headset in the trash and buy a new pair.
  14. People from a different culture/country than yours.
  15. Sure, ESD can be a threat to PC components, but a lot of parts these days are made to be much more resistant than their predecessors a decade ago that the risk is much lower now. I've done a few builds while moving around on carpet and nothing bad happened. I just made sure to touch a plugged in (but off) PSU, or the case (I install the PSU first for grounding) every few minutes.
  16. The Mass Effect trilogy remaster (Legendary Edition) is coming out this Friday, I would keep my eyes on reviews.
  17. If you're okay with your purchase, go ahead and do that. In terms of health, it should be fine after disinfecting the handle and not using the dirty brush head. When I buy a brand new product, I want it to be up to a certain standard. So I would personally get an exchange.
  18. Even if Sony were to kill the PlayStation Store and online support for the PS4 next year, it would still be a good, cost-effective gaming machine if you buy it second hand. But I highly doubt they are going to do that soon. The PS Vita has been on life support for a very long time now and it's still going fine. Sony was going to kill its PlayStation Store (along with the PS3's) this year, but after the backlash they received from the community, they left it alone. If anything, they'll pull the plug for PS3 and Vita before even thinking about touching the PS4.
  19. Hi everyone, quick question. What kind of lube do you guys recommend/use for your keyboards? I'd like something that's available on Amazon Canada.
  20. Yeah, something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Griarrac-Cherry-Mechanical-Keyboards-Testing/dp/B07CHSKY13/ https://www.amazon.com/Max-Keyboard-Gateron-Zealios-Tealios/dp/B087Q1Z391/
  21. Only on the linear (red) ones. The clicky (purple) ones aren't nearly as sensitive. Razer has released a second gen of their linear optical switches (with lower actuation and lubed stabilizers) but for whatever reason they are only available with their Huntsman MIni.
  22. OH MY GOD, THEY ARE THE SAME PERSON.

    I don't know for sure, but I think they customized that desk with one of these: https://www.amazon.ca/ZESHAN-Multimedia-Connection-Desktop-Conference/dp/B07XXLHLN8/
  24. What do you think "SOLD OUT" means?
