So many buttons and has QMK firmware so I have actual layers on my mouse!
This is the future
QMK?
Very configurable Open Source Keyboard (and mouse I guess) firmware
configutable how?
everything from rearranging the keys (for instance I use vim, so I swap esc and capslock), to changing tap and hold behaviors (my capslock key does esc on tap and ctrl on hold), to really elaborate stuff like tap dances (https://thomasbaart.nl/2018/12/13/qmk-basics-tap-dance/), all while being configured directly on the firmware of the keyboard, so it just works no matter what computer it's plugged into, and it doesn't have any weirdness that comes with software remapping tools.
I have a pair. They're really cool, but I haven't found a use case for them. They're open-back, so I can't use them when I'm working in public spaces. They require their own USB DAC/AMP, so I can't use them in my analog chain at either my desktop or home theater. And the DAC/AMP requires too much power to use them with my phone, so I can't use them while walking around. The only time I use them is when I'm working from home and for some reason I want to use my laptop in bed or in the living room instead of my desktop, which is rare.
Why did they use such an obscene word for this?
Why did they use such an obscene word for this?
"Ploopy"? I would say it's weird (for headphones) and maybe non-descriptive. How is it "obscene"?
Someone didn't read diary of a wimpy kid
That's true. But I guess I'm not the only one haha!
Not the only one; I'm wondering, too
In the book it's a word the little brother came up with, and if anyone said it to them they'd cry. Their mom banned it so in their house it was on the same level as swearing.
It's far easier to search for and find things with unique names, especially if one name will unite a family of things.
A coworker has a pair of these and it’s pretty neat.
I have a pair, and they sound great! I do have some issues with the connection into the amp though, I think I've been to hard on the wire.
I have a ploopy mouse and it's utterly fantastic.
