>What headphones/earbuds should I buy?
>/g/iemg
Yeah I'm not sure I want to ask there, I feel like I'll enter a hellhole, like the gear threads on /p/.
I think I'd rather ask the comfy /csg/ : I'm in the market for some wireless iems. My audio preferences are standard, just a standard V signature. I like bass enough BUT I tried the Sony 1000XM5 and found them too bassy/muddy/whatever the term that is used to tell it had too much emphasis. Though I know by experience I like bass still, but here it was a tad too much. Hope it helps as a point of reference from a popular well known model.
Which ChiFi model should I look for? Let's say budget is up to 150 bucks, but less is welcome. Ideally I want a pair that's able to save up an EQ profile in its hardware/memory (so I can use them on any device without having to depend on a software EQ on each device). Also a long battery life is welcome, alongside noise canceling, though as a bonus.
And bonus points if I have a waifu making cute sounds when I switch some mode instead of a boring robotic voice or a random beep. Moondrops Golden Age and Moondrop Ultrasonic seem to fit the bill, but maybe there's better considering my budget allows to go further.
I think Anker also does good shit?

Does anyone here know anything about nintendo Switches and joy-cons?
I'm trying to revive my old Switch and I'd like to fix it up a bit. The rubber on the left thumb stick is gone and also the "lock-up" with the switch is loose.
Does anyone know which stores on AE have decent joycon parts? DO I have to replace the whole thumbstick or just the rubber? And is it possible to make the lock-up tighter? And any opinions about replacing the whole shell?

Sorry if this is the wrong thread but I have no idea where to ask these questions and given that I'll be buying from AE, thought it would be a good match.

Another parcel of boring shit arrived.
Threaded inserts: nearly $80 of the stuff, but considering how a previous impulse buy of assorted inserts saved a very profitable project recently I don't mind the variety.
Washers: seem to go through these to some degree.
Two bags of assorted grommets: have never had a use for them, but might some day.
nylon washers: might find a use for them at some point, though I might still just use a strip of kapton tape if electrical conductivity is a concern.
Acrylic markers: not for me, they'll be a gift.
Mechanic melamine sponges: they're precut into 10mm cubes and function admirably. I've made a small container for these that's a permanent desk item.
box of o-rings: it's a box of o-rings.
star shaped ptfe tube: single linear length of tube will become a series of tubes to be used with my 3d printer.
3d printer lamp: adding this to cart somehow reduced the total cart cost, so it was added.

Do you guys have any recommendations on chinese SSDs that fit inside a Steam Deck? Something that's okay enough is more than fine, brand-name ones are really badly priced on my end

Also, any KVM switches that are good on sites like Ali and whatnot?

>>108988770
>know anything about nintendo Switches and joy-cons?
Nope!

You're likely best off opening the joycon and replacing the lock and thumbstick. Individual sticks are cheap (for other controllers at least), and aftermarket stick caps aren't something I've looked into but afaik they're usually intended to fit over the standard cap instead of replace it.

Shell swaps that I've looked at don't include sticks or locks, so you'd still need to buy those separately.

How can I convert my passion for Chinkshit into a paying job
Become an agent? Become a dropshipper?

>>108988770
I just switched to TMR sticks and a metal joy-con lock, just replace the whole stick anon, it's only like $5 for TMR and it will never drift, just don't lose the spring for the lock (or buy a kit that comes with extra springs and the small metal bracket that holds it in)

Is there some kind of chink android alternative to something like an iPod touch. I essentially just want a small 4-5 inch android tablet with a camera and ability to sideload apps just without the cell capabilities of a goyphone.

>>108989444
ive considered getting custom patches and mousepads printed but the margins are too low. youd have to sell large quantatites in order for it to be worth while. Also im not much of an artist so id have to AI slop designs, pay someone, or steal artwork

gimme ur best magsafe accessories

>>108988770
pretty much what >>108989558 said
addition to that i also recommend a pair of ceramic tipped tweezers
the cables in the joycons are generally hard to reach and it's a huge qol boost. and i said ceramic because i blew up the ant shit sized 0402 fuse in a joycon before with steel tweezers and if you cant do microsoldering you're cooked

>>108989874

I've been looking for a new pair too, want to upgrade my old galaxy buds.
Been looking at the oneplus buds 4 but these are supposedly very bassy.
Another choice is the huawei freebuds pro 4, more balanced iirc but also kinda expensive.

>ceramic tipped tweezers
nta, but could you post a pic of tweezers that you actually recommend? Ali has hundred diff types.

>>108990417(me)
if you mean the brand mechanic is alright
but they are sharp as fuck, might puncture your cables
honestly for the joycon repair the picrel one is more than enough really

>>108990417
Thanks anon. I had no idea ceramic tweezers even existed.
I don't have a switch but I do sometimes work on GPUs and laptops and disconnecting cables is always scary to me when I have to tug on things.
>>108990460
>but they are sharp as fuck, might puncture your cables
Yes! That has actually happened to me. I tore up one of the cables on the 3080 GPU.
>honestly for the joycon repair the picrel one is more than enough really
you forgot he pic.

Why are ceramic preferred over just regular stainless steel ones? Solder doesn't stick to stainless anyway...

File: file.png (281 KB, 700x430)

>>108990479
>Why are ceramic preferred over just regular stainless steel ones? Solder doesn't stick to stainless anyway...
because they are non-conductive
>>108989911 the battery is there and an unfortunate short is enough to blow the fuse
picrel is the size of joycons' fuse
well you dont want to add more shit to repair or do you?
>you forgot he pic.
well the picrel i tried to mean the one you posted
dont ask me why i used the word picrel lel

>>108990479
also fuck i deleted >>108990417 by accident
what a shitshow
it's on da archive anyways

Is there any good windows / pc bluetooth adapter for wired keyboard

>>108990636
what do you mean by bluetooth adapter for wired keyboard

>>108990663
Like a usb hub, but using bluetooth

Has anyone ever gotten credit from mysterybox keys? I don't mean the level up credit but the actual keys. I play the mysterybox everytime. Never a single credit win. The odds must be so low or actually zero.

am I still the only leaf who has noticed more and more items having taxes and duties applied?
we're getting fucked by tariffs too??? i guess we must be a small and boring enough country that nobody else has noticed legislations being passed. it's effectively negating the sale coupons. might as well be buying from amazog pretty soon.

All my gamecube shit from Taobao arrived at my house. The way they handle consolidation/international shipping is actually pretty cool. The seller just ships it to the Taobao warehouse with whichever courier they would normally use then they put the parcel in a bag and send it to you. Pretty different from what I'm used to with getting stuff from Japan using zenmarket where they open the parcels to consolidate them.

>>108990520
>because they are non-conductive
cant you just get titanium tweezers then?

>>108992492
this is only possible because china gets some weird global kickback allowing free shipping

>>108989444
You could offer to be a drop off site. Buy a very small commercial property, sign up to every site and you get paid commission for it. This might be the easiest option but also costly if you don’t know how much people would pay to drop off vs delivery at home.

should i get a jetkvm or nanokvm
or something else altogether

it's for a headless server so i dont care about video quality or refresh rate

Wanted a console but the price is way too high these days
Anyway no world cup sale this time?

>>108993365
What type of console? I prefer to buy old used consoles from Japan then get most of the accessories for them from China.

I'm becoming depressed thinking about the new cucktax...
but maybe it will be easier. I will just accept that I'm not going to buy anything anymore. I have a decent stockpile but it means that I can't do any new projects. maybe I need to invest into woodworking tools or 3d printer.

>>108993365
You can consoom one of those bug lights that you charge via usb c, ordered one myself the other day, was like 10 eurocucks

What's the best cheap (sub £20) usb soldering iron, I use a soldering station at the moment but it's massive and doing my head in. Want an upgrade

Thank you kindly anon!!
>Shell swaps that I've looked at don't include sticks or locks, so you'd still need to buy those separately.
Are there any popular and good looking shells that you could recommend? Or someone else who has some experience.
My Switch is an OLED if that matters (I know each edition had diff colors).
>>108989558
>it's only like $5 for TMR and it will never drift
Bud, I see a lot of them on AE. Do you have a recommendation or a spec/search term I should look for?
>>108989911
>addition to that i also recommend a pair of ceramic tipped tweezers
Thanks! I see others followed up on this. I'll buy a set. I have a shitty set of tweezers that don't work well.
>and if you cant do microsoldering you're cooked
I want to avoid this as much as possible!

pinecil, provided you have a pd power source.

>>108993869
i have one of those cheap $7 battery powered soldering pens and they work fine for my needs.
not sure what kind of projects you need it for but i only need it to fix low gauge wire connections on electronics every once in a while.

I assume we're mostly from western hemisphere or euro and platypus land. Byt are there any countries where csg is cheaper than on AliExpress?

Is csg cheaper anywhere in Asia?

i'm going to miss you zany europeans. an end to an era of cheap chinkshit comes with a whimper not a bang.

>>108994045
>conical
disgusting

>>108994124
i've seen people argue that the flat horse shoe is better than conical but honestly i didn't notice any difference for the things i solder so i just went back to conical because it's easier to move around.

>>108994121
Chang will probably figure it out in year or two, I refuse to pay some politically connected middleman buisniess fag 500% markup on my chinkshit

I bet you'd like it more if it were a penis tip, wouldn't you, you massive faggot?

>>108994040
Extremerate and dbrand are all I know of for first party shell swaps, and I tend to prefer extremerate's selection. The threading on several screwholes in the last shell I ordered from them was awful, but it still came together eventually so whatever.
>TMR
K-Silver JS19 or the newest Hallpi revision
Older Hallpi and Gulikit sticks have issues like tremor and briefly misbehaving after console wake.

>>108994045
>pinecil
that was popular like 5 years ago. I'd stay away from it because the cartridges are shit and not readily available.

>>108994247
you gotta have a weird penis if a chisel tip reminds you of a dick

Thank you thank you thank you! This is exactly the kind of detail I was looking for! I'll order them today.

Oh, I also have a Lite with a broken thumb stick. Do I need a different type for this one?

>>108994504
lite, same form factor but just white
i recommend k-silver js19
it has the original stick shape too unlike other options

>>108994520
Got it. Will order everything today.
I need to add few other items to reach the coupon stage...
thanks again!!!

What the deal with air and gas sensors for arduino? are all the same? are there any fakes? trying to build a monitoring station cuz I feel the air in my house is killing me, so the sensors better work for real instead of being like those chinky stations that just show bullshit on a screen.

Which are the good brands? which are the stores that wont sell you bullshit?
