okay so now my LEDs are working and my F key is working flawlessly, sweet!
but uhhh, i've got some other problems. keys are pressing other keys and i can't use backspace unless i highlight text first. no idea wtf is going on.

@matana except now i can't use backspace unless i select text first? okay this has GOT to be a software issue, 100%. how the fuck do i fix that though???

@matana hey hey hey would you look at that, the LEDs are back xD

@matana okay well idk what i did but i just fucked with it a bit and it is working now lol.

LEDs still dead though. they like keep flickering trying to turn back on, no idea what happened there. the LEDs have always been pretty spotty on this thing though, like a bunch of the colors died only like a year in to me owning it. i'm guessing they are just very low quality.

@matana indeed

maybe i'll just use that emote as my key rom now on.

@berkberkman well, it was working without the keycap. now it isn't working at all actually. wtf

@berkberkman it actually seems like the switch works fine, it's the keycap that's messed up. if i take off the keycap it actually works.

@berkberkman nah i think they're soldered on, unfortunately. it wasn't a very expensive keyboard, relatively.

@LukeAlmighty the best way i can put it is that she was perfect before and she's still perfect now.

scratch that, everything works except my "F" key now for some reason, which is having the same problem that my spacebar, S, D, and I keys were having before. they just sometimes don't work. i cleaned the hell out of this and it fixed 4 keys in the process so why is one of them now refusing to cooperate? :S

maybe i just need a new keyboard at this point. that sucks though because i thought mechanicals were supposed to last for a lot longer, not like 3 years.

@LukeAlmighty there are definitely points where it breaks stuff, but there are also a lot of areas where if you try to do that you actually end up taking longer than you would have if you just solved things normally lol. i still did it anyway because i wanted to see if i could. you have to make some pretty elaborate setups.

@coolboymew @xianc78 i've never tried it but apparently yeah, it's incredibly easy.

hey, i'd rather have a functioning keyboard again that doesn't have keys that stop working than one with LEDs xD although the keys don't light up at all and don't have white paint, it's all clear... so it's kinda hard to see.

well, since i wasn't able to play music today because the FUCKING WEATHER IS STILL BALLSHIT

i deep cleaned my keyboard instead :3 it looks very nice! took about 4 hours lol but it was worth it. took off every key and cleaned each one, pulled apart the keyboard itself to clean the inside, etc.

i must have fucked something up though because the LEDs aren't working too well xD

@vaartis almost all my VAs are my friends lmao
