Hi SharkFiNbowl,

I'm on Hong Kong Island in Midlevels, orignally from Australia, so a bit of a kid in a candy store with all the cool gear you can get here! :woot:

Send me a PM if you've got any more questions :happy:

Hey vault, I'm around the wan chai/midlevels area too!

thats a nice rig u got there Vault..

i want one of those keyboards though, where did u get urs from and what are they called? do they have a specific name?

let me know, thanks mate :)

Hi the_JOHN,

yeah they are sweet little keyboards. They are made by Benq, which is the "Funky" peripherals arm of Acer. Anyway, the keyboard is quite tactile - very much like the IBM Thinkpads keyboard, though a little smaller. Light as well - probably about 100-150 grams.

You can have a look at the "Mini Buddy" keyboard here at Benq's European site. I'm using a Benq mouse as well and the quality is top notch.

elfangor nice to see there are a few Hong Kong people on the board. I'll drop you a PM.

Here's mine... I need a bigger desk. I've got so much stuff on the floor and my CD's are all in my night table. It's a mess. I wish I had space for a corner desk but I gotta get mine custom made meaning I gotta build it myself and I still haven't gotten around to doing it :p

how much did it cost u Vault as i cannot seem to find anywhere in the UK that sell them

Cheap as chips actually! Bought it on a trip to Singapore and cost me S$50 which would work out to be about 25 euros if that helps your conversion. It should be about half the cost of a basic MS Internet keyboard for reference.

I had a bit of a look and I can't find anyone in the UK who has it available online.:pinch: Probably your best bet would be to ring up BenQ and ask them. The keyboard on the UK site has a great big flashing "New" next to it, so perhaps stock hasn't gone through the channel yet.

Hope that helps you out ;)

    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.

    • LibreWolf 151.0.4-1 by Razvan Serea LibreWolf is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM. LibreWolf features: Latest Firefox — LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. You will have the the latest features, and security updates. Independent Build — LibreWolf uses a build independent of Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. No phoning home — Embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. In other words, minimal background connections by default. User settings updates Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) Community-Driven Dark theme (classic and advanced) LibreWolf privacy features: Delete cookies and website data on close. Include only privacy respecting search engines like DuckDuckGo and Searx. Include uBlockOrigin with custom default filter lists, and Tracking Protection in strict mode, to block trackers and ads. Strip tracking elements from URLs, both natively and through uBO. Enable dFPI, also known as Total Cookie Protection. Enable RFP which is part of the Tor Uplift project. RFP is considered the best in class anti-fingerprinting solution, and its goal is to make users look the same and cover as many metrics as possible, in an effort to block fingerprinting techniques. Always display user language as en-US to websites, in order to protect the language used in the browser and in the OS. Disable WebGL, as it is a strong fingerprinting vector. Prevent access to the location services of the OS, and use Mozilla's location API instead of Google's API. Limit ICE candidates generation to a single interface when sharing video or audio during a videoconference. Force DNS and WebRTC inside the proxy, when one is being used. Trim cross-origin referrers, so that they don't include the full URI. Disable link prefetching and speculative connections. Disable disk cache and clear temporary files on close. Disable form autofill. Disable search and form history...and more. LibreWolf 151.0.4-1 changelog: Upstream release, see the Firefox 151.0.4 Release Notes Notable changes: DRM now uses a per-site permission, instead of allowing all requested sites access, when DRM is enabled.

    • Stopped using Windows as my main workflow. Migrated completed to Linux. Been happier than a clam without a single issue nor windows annoyance. Leaving Windows has shown me the light at the end of the tunnel, or rather I went through the tunnel and I'm already at the light.
