A picture of me with Luke at Pax East last year (2017)

Im going to post my vintage keyboard stuff
I bought 2 IBM Pingmasters, one which I converted to TMK (a keyboard programming software) and the other I harvested the switches and keycaps from to create a vintage styled 60% keyboard in an Aluminium case.

I super dislike it actually. I think that minimalism is a much better aesthetic. The gamer-aesthetic is too vibrant and busy IMO.

Sounds more like an angry rant than a review... 

Hey guys.
 
I used to be pretty active on this forum a few years back, and then about a year ago I mostly vacated the forums. I ended up becoming more invested in custom keyboards and gravitated to those forums instead. But im back now, at least for a bit. Some of you I recognize and some I don't, but i look forward to getting to know all of you, either for the first time or again.
 
I was curious about what I had missed. Not so much in PC hardware because I have still been following it loosely, but with things like this forum, Floatplane and LTT in general.
 
Anyways I'm looking forward to diving back in

I like how Canvas looks, not how XDA feels. Would prefer SA or MT3 versions of Canvas. XDA is too light. Weighty keycaps feel and sound nicer. 

Welcome back. In the past month or so custom keyboards are starting to get more attention in the forum so there will be a lot more discussion on those.

Ok

Ive had
-Ipod Shuffle
-Ipod touch 4th gen
-Iphone 5
 
I enjoyed all of them. I later discovered I was more of an Android boy (although if apple gives me a good reason ill go back). I also don't have a use for an Ipod anymore cause I carry my phone everywhere

If you have Windows 10, with a Microsoft linked account, and had that "Find my PC" feature enabled, you can track your PC where it is from IP address. It's not precise, but can help police to track your computer to recover it. Of course, the person that stole the PC must hook up the PC to power and Ethernet and turn it on.
 
Please note that the exact location may be wrong, as it goes by IP, and VPN will fool this system (unless you have added a GPS system in your desktop, for the feature to use).
 
Of course, change all your passwords, and setup 2 factor authentications.

Too bad that those people are not likely to lurk around these parts.

Thanks a lot

any of these

yeah the masterkeys line of keyboards are pretty damn good, and for 65$ thats a steal

I dont know why you bothered blocking out payment method, we all know Canadians pay eachother through maple syrup and kindness  

Horizontally sliced bread should be released too... ?

240Hz monitor that's some extreme stuff.

Given the cost and the last year SoC, i would still lean toward an iPad.
If it came with ChromeOS it'd be more interesting imo

So I did pass!
 
I got my Ford company email and everything, so I’m guessing all is good. HR wouldn’t have set my email up if I didn’t pass. But that’s good news, I love this job, first day was great.
