No vector :(

Vector = best weapon .

vector + kar98k + pan is the best setup :D

Takes longer to reload it than it takes to empty a clip.
I never really want to use a Vector unless I have an extended quickdraw mag for it. Best combo is kinda situation dependent, but in general I'm more of an ...

IIRC the DT Wiki directs you to this page as far as usernames go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(technical_restrictions)#Restrictions_on_usernames

Pretty sure the Wiki also doesn't like enormous passwords too. I had to make my password shorter in order to log into the ...

let's make this thing clear. I don't rerun it because

1) there's not enough interest. the first run made it by a whisker
2) SP SA tooling is booked until January 2123
Wow. Great business for SP.

Am I wrong in thinking you had said a long time ago you wouldn't run PuLSE again, but you did? If ...

I'm still awaiting my bad Massdrop experience...may it never come!

I almost forgot that Canadians also get the short end of the stick with this. Using some Toronto zip code, shipping of the Pingmaster would still be US $46.22, which is even more ridiculous than US $57.62 to Germany, considering the US and Canada are right next to each other…

Because of this ...

All of these are amazing entries, but I had to vote for Slom. It's the one I stared at the longest.

Such a beautiful, unique keyboard. The Honeywell colorway has to be one of my favorites, and that keyboard is just gorgeous.

You said you don't have a cable for it at the time being - what do you have in mind for replacement? I'm not familiar with keyboards this old at all to tell if that was a ...

Maybe my dad joined without me knowing. You're not my dad, are you?

Representing that '91-95!

I drive a '97 Lincoln Town Car at the moment. A luxury police cruiser, basically.


Is it true that in the US you can buy used police cars and similar ( post vans and so on) ? And that they are usually very well maintained ?
Police cars, yes. It's not uncommon at all to see civilians driving ...

Wow, it is super cool actually seeing the lights working correctly. I didn't expect that to happen. That plastic polished worked wonders on those keycaps. I may have missed it, but is there a name for the mount on this particular set of keys? Am I correct in thinking these could be replaced with ...

Alright! An Econline? My dad used to have a '61. He bought it with 200k miles on it and sold it for twice what he paid with 500k miles on it.

I can't speak for QC problems but I voted Jelly Key as well. It's the only artisan I've ever thought of purchasing.

mnemonics from the french or the english keyboard ? Because it's a french canadian keyboard and it's hard to see myself typing in french on this thing ... It's good if you come from QWERTY, sure. But not if you come from AZERTY... it's really not.
I don't know if I'm the only one doing this but I ...

]It's an Audi B3. I don't think it's a typical car for the Netherlands, but once in a while you see one drive by. Before that it was a Merc W201. I think both were in essentially the last generation of nice-looking cars that manufacturer made xD .
Oh, I actually quite like that! You only very ...

Range has never been an important characteristic in my book. I've done a flex fuel conversion on my car so that I can run E85 fuel, which is cleaner (more corn-based) and every so slightly less expensive but nets me 30% worse mileage (but more power)!

Electric cars are cool, but the upfront cost is ...

I can't see your images due to company blocking policy I hope I remember to check this when I get home.

Bought the Triumph Adler set, just wanted to drop in and confirm a great transaction! Bought and delivered in 3 days from Romania to the UK, very well packaged, photos and tracking number supplied etc.. even got a bonus cap in the package :)

I guess we don't have a karma system akin to r ...

No I put the plug into a DB9 breakout board and wired it up to the Pro Micro. The plug is quite large for what it is (which is why I thought it might be possible), but it's not large enough on the inside to house the Pro Micro.

You could take out the 2 screws from the plug and dismantle it to ...

I saw this when I was searching, and while reviving it wouldn't be the worst thing ever (we've all seen topics much older than that see a resurrection), it seemed that the topic was relatively focused and had ran its ...

Hey all,

I didn't see a topic on cars or general automotive stuff, so I guess this is it! I just came back from a Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 cruise down Skyline Drive, which was a complete blast. What do you guys drive? Anyone else an enthusiast? Like you needed a hobby more expensive than ...

When it reached 355 USD, I thought it would stay there for several days. Now it's at 480. This has all the markings of a legendary bidding war.

Now its at $630 :cry:

God, that was so three days ago . It's reached $1000 and it still two days and fourteen hours to go. :shock:

It finally ...

By that, do you mean that you integrated it into the (rather large) DE-9 plug that can be opened, as you mentioned in your second post?

Yokay, so I got mine yesterday and the experience was fantastic. Still waging whether or not I want to go the Pro Micro or Teensy route.

Any idea what the production dates of these keyboards are? Perhaps it's printed on the PCB? I haven't got a chance to split her open yet.

Hello, may I know which model you bought? VA87M or VA68M?
I bought the VA68M (MIYA Pro).

The LED under the Page Up key is mode indicator. I would like to clarify this key's function : Press FN and Page Up , F line exchange to Number line ( At the moment, LED of Page Up is on, but LED of Page ...

I have this on my desk at home - contemplating bringing it to work, but I don't want to have to explain it to everyone! It's a lovely keyboard, and for having a plastic frame the weight surprised me.

It's got a white LED on the MX switch under the Page Up key. Not sure what's up with that, but I ...

While it is very nice these colors may turn some people off...

You DO know Varmilo makes several color schemes for their keyboards, right?

No of course I don't. Judging by the name I thought it may be some kind of special edition.
You're right - this particular keyboard is called the Varmilo x ...

The funny thing is, the guys I've showed it to think it's the neatest thing. The females I've shown it to ask "yeah, but whyyyyyy?!"
