[Cancerous cunt's MKB ramblings] Everglide Aqua King v3

After using EG Oreos for a week, and I still can't get used to them. So, I'm swapping them out for the Everglide Aqua King v3 switches. I'm changing the format a bit, will be posting my thoughts after a week of using the switches, instead of right after putting them into the keyboards, so that I can have a better impression of the switches I'm using. That being said, the goal is still to try to use a new switch for a month.

Well, I guess I failed the EG Oreos test.

The EG AKs are linear switches with 3 variations of actuation - 55g, 62g, and 67g. I heard there is a 37g variation, but I'm unable to find that variation anywhere. That said, I went with the 55g variation since they feel just right for me - not too light, not too heavy. As for my impression after a week, this must be the smoothest linear switches I've ever used, I don't feel any scratchiness at all. I'm also quite impressed there is almost no wobble on switches. I'll admit, I'm a pleb for when it comes to the non-mainstream linear switches, since the only other non-mainstream linear switch I've used was NovelKeys Cream switches, and they aren't even comparable to the EG AKs.

These switches are very well lubed from the factory. I read some reviews that mentioned people are getting underlubed or overlubed switches, but I didn't encounter such problems. I thought it might not be a widespread issue, but perhaps I hit the jackpot with this batch. So, I just left mine factory lubed. Hey, don't try to fix something, if it isn't broken, right? I encounter another reported issue where the pins of the switches are bent, and I had to straighten quite a number of them.

Another plus for RGB fanbois is the clear transparent housing and stem. Although I'm not using any backlight on the current keyboard, the transparency will allow the backlight to shine through properly, and with the exact color. For example, I'm using the Gateron Ink Blues on my other keyboard that I turned on the backlight, and due to the blueish transparent housing, my white backlight becomes blueish as well.

I'm not very good in describing the sound of switches, and I'm a pretty pleb typist, since I only know how to type using 3 fingers on each on my hand. No, uh, 4 fingers on my right hand. There is a soft clacky sound when bottoming out the EG AKs, while a higher pitch than expected when topping out. Even though I prefer clicky sounded or thocky sounded switches, I think they sounded pretty nice as well. Here's a random sound test video I found on YouTube:

I'll probably use these babies for more than a month, since I just adore them so much, and skipped 3 weeks on the EG Oreos. I'd highly recommend these switches if anyone would like to try them out.

(update)
I've managed to buy a pack of the 37g variation (200 pieces).

After testing a number of other linear switches, I felt maybe my experience with the EG SKs was the ones I owned were only slightly overlube. To test my suspicion out, I bought another batch of EG AKs, and the switches came with this batch were definitely overlube, more than those I were using previously.

Even though, I'm lowering the ratings I gave the EG AKs in this update, I still think the EG Aks are pretty interesting to test out, and if you have the budget, it's worth trying them out.

[Cancerous cunt's MKB ramblings] Everglide Oreo

I haven't been posting anything on this blog for some time. Close to 3 years, I guess? I've been collecting MKBs and switches for some time, and I thought writing some of my thoughts here would be nice. Enough with the ramblings and let's get down to it!

I'll be starting with the Everglide Oreo switches.

As usual, I've cleaned the keyboard, and lubed the switches. The EG Oreo switches are tactile switches with 55g actuation force.

In my opinion, they're pretty bad without lube - feel very scratchy; I feel lubing is a must. The initial press feel nice, you can feel a pronounced tactile bump, if you're switching from the usual mainstream tactile switches, ie Cherry Browns and its variants. That said, it feels "sticky" when bottoming out, with or without lube. You can feel this, at least I felt it, pretty easily especially on the larger keys. As for the sound, they sound a lot better than the usual mainstream tactile switches.

To be honest, I'm kinda indifferent toward these switches, even though I'm a faiboi tactile/clicky switches. I'll try to use them for the month. Next month, I'll be testing out the Everglide Aqua King switches.

Just when I'm just roasting Arweeb...

Let's see how long will Arwin John Raul Gonzalez VII aka Arweeb keep failing in society.

Look what we have here...

Someone is officially now a weeb, in addition to being a retarded lens flare hunter.

Maybe it's time for Arwin John Raul Gonzalez VII to clean up his stains under his desk, get a job, and move out from his mom's basement.
Just saying. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The debacle relating to privacy on consumer ancestry mapping sites

If you don't know what I'm talking about, here's a link.

The logic where it is justifiable to allow law enforcer or government to able to use whatever tool they need to apprehend criminals even though everyone's and anyone's privacy will be sacrificed is plain arrogant and retarded.

The best part is they are the first to whine and moan when shit hits the fan. I have absolutely no sympathy for these morons, and I sincerely hope they get fucked so high up their ass, when their own privacy are being abused by big brother, especially these two assholes and anyone who supports their decision.

No issue can be compared against an individual's privacy; if one doesn't want to share certain details of his/her life, it shouldn't be out public, period.

My thoughts on the recent "Pewdiepie is racist" incident

I can't fucking believe I'm writing this shit to defend Pewdiepie. Fucking Pewdiepie, the lamest person on gaming community.

I like how everyone starts jumping on the bandwagon of "I'm holier than thou", and starts calling Felix a racist, because the context doesn't matter. You know, just like when I'm calling you a cunt, you're not actually a cunt - because it's a fucking general insult to you as a person. Just like how Felix is insulting the player he is playing against.

If you are pissed at someone cussing in games, or such, please go back to your safe space, because NO ONE GIVES A FLYING FUCK ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS. Every fucking multiplayer game is toxic - it's just human nature. If you're going to deny it, you must be either:
  1. a recluse, who stays in your mom's attic, and never actually played multiplayer in your lifetime;
  2. so much denial, that you're detached from reality.
You know what? Leftist white liberals are still the most racist and toxic kind of people on Earth. It's funny when black people don't actually give a fuck about Felix saying "Nigger", but these morons shout louder about racism, and start abusing the said black people.

It's SJW morons like you guys who make the word "nigger" sounds offensive, because you keep saying how racist, how bigoted to speak of it. But, you know, IT'S JUST A FUCKING WORD. Empowering the word will just elevate its status.

Just like what Dave Rubin says, the more this outrage continues, the more I find myself drifting away from the left.
