Keen eye, initially I did sort the right split from left-to-right. But also over time the fat from the fingers affected the color as well, so I figured it's a loosing battle anyway. I'm waiting for a white colored MJF print, which should eliminate these color woes once I figure out the proper dimensions.
I’m really good at helping pack vehicles for moves. My kid got to take three extra boxes and the driver got use of the rear view mirror back because I repacked the car.
So you need some sort of sealant on the keys? Or maybe just a flame polish?
Sealant is not a bad shout once I find the perfect switch<>cap fit. This elusive tolerance gap has been my moby dick moment for some time. (So when I get around to buy a resin printer)
Thank you,
My first few attempts were with a SMD stencil and a 50x50mm hotplate, it's true that maybe a larger hotplate that could span the whole PCB might have done a better job. But with the smaller plate it was "easier" to just manually apply solder paste and do 4 switches at a time.
I think this method is also highly specific to these switches. They are known for being difficult to solder with hobby-tier equipment.
Definitely looking into adding trackpad/trackpoint/touchpad(?) into the V2. And finding a way to do so without sacrificing the minimalist look and feel too much.
Haha I didn’t think it would be misinterpreted as a typo. It’s colloquially called “pain rectangle” within the ergo community. But happy it amused the readers. I edited the article to include that explanation!
No questions, just sharing that I was smiling like an idiot when I saw the wire transfer email screenshot. Maybe I felt emotionally invested since I remember reading your previous posts about the less-than-ideal design studio collaborations.
Designer here. They really shouldn't because it is de facto the industry standard and no other software even comes close. Why do you think Adobe was willing to buy it for 20B
There's a beauty in people finding and fixing these seemingly tiny gaps in their daily lives. It reeks of the serenity in someone's world where 1) this is a problem they're willing to invest time in, 2) they have the time to resolve the problem, and 3) they seem to really enjoy it.
It's in my mind akin to the master craftsperson perfecting their work over the years.
Not a stupid question, having built a small form factor PC,
I can say that liquid cooling the whole machine would require an 10x effort as you need to install extra equipment to make it work such as: pumps, reservoirs, dealing with tubing, leak testing, annual cleaning of liquid, dealing with corrosion if you use the wrong metals for the cooling parts and million other things.
Note that the author used AIO (all in one) cooling for the CPU, which is equivalent to plug-n-play liquid cooling in a closed loop. You don't have to deal with any of the above with this.
And finally, the GPU are very optimized for air cooling anyways, especially the Founder Edition cards that you see here. You would not see any huge temperature drops going from air > liquid. But liquid sure looks cooler.
