most tasks have become browser based, or at least able to be done entirely in a web browser.

That's why I've been using an iPad at work - someone decided our product management web client should work on mobile devices. It does (although the UI could be improved a lot) but the iPad is still a stupid tool to use for it.

I suppose anything that involves input is a bad job to have to do on an iPad.

*Cough cough* About that...




Duckys flagship, Shine 3 YOTS edition, white backlight/MX Blue switches. One of the 999 units made with aluminium body so it's pretty rare especially with nordic layout. Had to part with mucho dineros for this one.

The button between CTRL+ALT looks like a Hyena humping a chicken

I'm thinking about getting a Corsair Vengeance K70 Anodized Black. Does anyone know if they're any good?

I believe it uses red switches. I've been told they're good for gaming, but not so much for typing. I currently use some Logicrap keyboard with rubber domes, would it be any better?

I love the looks of it, and the backlight can be controlled for every key, which is a cool feature I think. I wish it had RGB LEDs, but you can't have it all. It's around 130 euro's here, which is a shitload of money for a keyboard I think, but would it be worth trying? I can always return it if it's crap.

dont get the "hype" about keyboards.
ive got a logitech keyboard which cost me 2,50€ brandnew...3 years old and still perfectly good

I'm using one right now, and I have to admit I can't stand the red switches. There's zero feedback when the contact is made, even rubber domes on flat scissor keyboards feel better IMO. Then again, it's a very personal thing which switches you like. Go try some mechanical boards out in a store if you want to avoid going through 4 keyboards like I did before finding the switch that you find the best.

My best advice would be this: wait for the K70 MX Brown version, those are the most beginner friendly switches.

If you do a lot of typing or programming, or just work on your keyboard in general, then you'll love a mechanical. You also can't judge them if you haven't tried one live, the feel is completely different to rubber domes.

I'll have to find a store that still sells physical stuff then. All I could find in those large stores are the usual crappy rubber dome keyboards...

If you want to try MX Blues atleast (my personal fav) then check if there's any Razer Blackwidows around to test. It's a shit keyboard, but atleast they're pretty common for testing. Logi G710+ is also very common for MX Brown testing.

They aren't for everyone - I tried one but didn't really get on with it, lucky I had a go before parting with £££!

Having said that I think I personally prefer the cheap keyboards that come free with Lenovo / HP PC's etc!

True, then again there are kind of mechanical hybrids like Topres that are kind of a middle ground between rubber dome and your usual Cherry MX feel. There's pretty much a keyboard for anyone if you dig deep and do enough research.

But if you don't mind rubber domes, there's nothing wrong with that either. Even something like Logi Illuminated (rubber dome+scissors) feels pretty darn good.

No more having to use mouse or buttons to look around


Temporary music solution for the car

Two packs of these (similiar)



Already went through 7 of them, with these results..
Goddamn impossible i tell ya.

the display MUST be completely dust free.
the bubbles are just there because of dust.
had the same problem with my SGS4.
id suggest go into the bath, and let the shower run hot for a few mins...the steam will get rid of the dust in the air.
then clean the display and apply the protection thing then.

Why do you need a screen protector if I may ask?

to prevent scratches...happend on SGS2 so this time i wanna make sure it wont happen again.

Thanks for the shower tip but i'll probably won't try it again, this screen seems proper, it's not gorrila glass but scratch resistant, and i take care of my phones anyway..

Ships on 27th, can't wait.

Been busy buying stuff lately,as I'm on vacation,so I had some extra free time to spend money.

Because I bought car with casette player and CD changer while not having a single casette or CD,threw the old stuff out and replaced with this (wanted to stay under 100€ for this unit):

+ 2 pioneer 17cm speakers,as the ones in doors were dead. Rear pair of Kenwood speakers are pretty decent and are ampified by some amplifier. Sounds ok,aren't too powerful,CBA to tune it up more.

Today's purchase (+16GB SD card):

Since I never had a dedicated camera before (just phone cams),it feels so great and amazing!

Now give us some proper shots of your car!

Just after then,when I purchase a carwash... (stupid flying rats and stupid dirt)

get a diy carwash
with the v1 rear wing an automated carwash will just wash all the dirt under the wing

I only ever buy Zagg protectors, no bubbles, lifetime guarantee and virtually un-markable

It's not about what protectors you buy, it's about the way you do it. I bought some cheap protectors from eBay (3 protectors + 2 cloths for $1) and managed to do it on the first try using my health insurance card (looks the same as a credit card).

As he said, you can quite easily get those air pockets out with a sturdy plastic card, just slowly move them towards the outside.
