Unlubed, they are nothing to write home about, in fact they're a little scratchy, but after lubing, they come alive.

The keeb and caffeine addictions make total sense since you're a masochist, I mean vim user.

that's sad that people do that. I had no idea you could buy full keycap sets on Etsy, I only knew about the artisan keycaps

I was wondering if -40C to +180C was a JEDEC thermal cycle test condition but surprisingly the max is +150C. So Cherry actually tests their switches at a more extreme temp than even a commercial electronics manufacturer.

Lower foam removed and tape aswell as forcebreak mod done. It just sounds amazing and weighs almost as much as a slegdehammer but after experiencing this i cant go back to normal keyboards.

A well thought out and appropriate answer.
One that answers a wealth of other, not necessarily contextual, questions.

Specializing in subjects is how humans have conquered the planet. As we continue to evolve and require less competition to survive, we have to actively control our impulses. Self-control is a critical life skill for mental health.
It's absolutely okay to enjoy something like mechanical keyboards, but it's not okay to have it interrupt the rest of your life. When people say they are obsessed, I like to rephrase it (when applicable) as chronically obsessed when it is negatively impacting their other priorities in life.

Absolutely, at first i didnt want to lube the switches but after trying one and feeling the difference i just had to.

You’re really comparing StarCraft apm to gw2? StarCraft players are literal freaks

I'm like that with sports stats. My wife is baffled by how I can remember who won the Heisman at a particular year, how many yards a QB threw back 20 years ago, or how many saves a pitcher has but I can't remember the name of my own friends that I haven't seen in a while.

If it helps it does have 2.5GHz wireless too. It's a pretty decent budget board, well worth looking at, and it takes customisation pretty well too.
