If you're going to go for a serious down jacket at this price level, make sure it is a box-wall type, not a regular stitch-through. SO many expensive brand-name jackets just use the cheap stitch-through sewing system, where you can feel the cold spots along the stitching. A proper box-wall design (as used in serious sleeping bags) has the down in what would look like boxes if you could see a cross-section, with no cold spots along the stitching. ...

Yes,, used to be a purer engineer,, then joined the dark side... marketing/sales weenie stuff. I got tired of those idiots making bad decisions screwing up my life, there are still mistakes made; but they are smaller and I made them, then I fix them.
Funny thing here is that my whole career, '79' onward, is in making thin film vacuum physical vapor deposition equipment,PVD, used to make solid state devices for the most part. High vacuum pl...

Atlantic was actually quite popular in the US before the quartz crisis (1970's). Their Worldmaster model is a particular favorite of mine. I thought they died back then with everyone else (as well as the entire US watch industry). My guess is that someone bought their name and started making watches under it, just like Blancpain or Squale.
Most of the classic watch brands died in the 1970's. Their brand names were sold back when Swatch and Richem...

I have this keyboard with clears. I'd say that if you like a very springy feeling action, the clears may be for you.
I found that my fingers got really fatigued when I got this board with the clears. Then either I got used to them, or the keys broke in somewhat, but I can really use them now without experiencing fatigue.
It may also be that I put in clear silicone O rings which prevent the switches from dipping down into the heaviest, most fatiguin...

With PCB keyboards, it's pretty easy to solder switches on. to SWAP switches, it's not as easy, but you have the right idea. you have to physically desolder every switch, then you can remove it from the PCB and swap a new one. There's no special wiring involved since the PCB takes care of that. You can damage the board if you're not careful, but with proper tools and technique the risk would be low.
Cherry MX switches tend to fall into three categ...

QMK is awesome. Assuming this is an atmega32u4 based board you need dfu-programmer for your platform, I've tried it on OSX and Linux. The docs are really good, but you can start out using kbfirmware.com and load one of the templates into the web based editor.
Once you're happy with the layout you can save a JSON file and compile a hex file on the website, and upload it into the keyboard using dfu programmer. You'll be able to access 80% of the fea...
