[@stevethea5250]

@@mug4009 Almost any way you touch his penis will turn him on - if he's attracted to you, and often even if he isn't, this is almost a sure bet. The thing is that every guy is different in what they like most, and the timing and pace of what they prefer. So let him know you want him to let you know (verbal, non-verbal, showing) when you are doing things he does and doesn’t like (the “does” will likely be covered with moans and changes in breathing). Among the things you can try: Dry penis and hand: touch the penis, surround the shaft with your fingertips and lightly run them up and down the shaft; hold the penis like you would a carrot, just behind the head and just tight enough that the skin slides with your hand, slide your hand up and down over the head (a “hand job”). Do the above with a lubricant - some hand lotions work, or there are sexual lubricants that are better (water based, they won't degrade a condom if you get to sex later). Play with his balls however you can think to; do be careful not to squeeze too hard, but the balls in the sac and the sensitivity of the skin can lead to a lot of fun. Use your mouth on his penis and balls (a “blow job”). Take the head of the penis into your mouth, use your saliva to get it wet. Use your tongue on the head and shaft. Move up and down on the shaft taking as much into your mouth as you can. Use your hand to stroke his wet shaft while your mouth works on the head or his balls. A couple things for you to know: He's likely to cum (ejaculate). This will make him very happy, and may startle you until you learn the signs it is coming. It's not dangerous. You can’t get pregnant if the cum is in your mouth (and face), only if it gets to your vagina. Some women love the taste of semen, and some don't. He is very likely going to want to have sex, too. It's best if you discuss your boundaries if that's not something you want to do. If it is something you want to do, or in case you might change your mind, have a condom available and use it. Yes, you can get pregnant the first time!

[@WookieeRage]

Pretty good over view with decent references. I wish you had actually demonstrated the lubing process instead of just saying "less is more." Based on my limited experience I feel it's important to know where to apply the lube and understanding some basic techniques would be nice. There is honestly enough information to cover that many of these topics could be a follow up video of their own, and would have made for a fun series. Maybe this is something you could do this year since there is so much variety on the market, with many more custom keyboard options.

(I always thought ABS was the most expensive key-caps.) For gamers, I'd recommend using the PBT (durable) plastic on your WASD and (left-side) shift keys. Why? Good question: I've had a Razer BW keyboard (was free) for 4-5 years, and on the keys I just mentioned the letters have completed faded away, so instead of letters being lit-up by the blue light, there are these HUGE blue blotches of light. It's just gross.

Imagine some one who would be used to have no shift key on his keyboard and 2 times more keys. They would think your keyboard is silly and is missing a lot of keys ! But you really aren't.

[@ipullstuffapart]

The gold plating is only there to stop oxidation. Connections plated with other non-reactive metals would also perform admirably. Non-plated connections may suffer unstable connections if the connector was to move frequently, although non-plated connectors are very uncommon. The performance of any type of non-reactive metals will be essentially identical, with Gold actually falling by the way-side after multiple insertions due to its soft nature.

That intro is basically what it feels like to be on r/mechanicalkeyboards

[@ZaeBae22]

So the rings or bands at 14:26 makes my keyboard quieter? Fucking blackwidow wakes everyone up..

[@ZaeBae22]

btw this video was fucking amazing 10/10

[@slackerhobo]

Yeah they don't help the click of the key but help with the bottoming out so can help sound by quite a bit overall. I also have a blackwiddow (among many others) and keycap replacement can help quite a bit too there is a lot of rattle to the ABS keys that make quite a bit of noise

[@ZaeBae22]

slackerhobo just double checking :D just ordered ty

[@joshuasprucie8933]

MxZeal if you have cherry mx switches, it is possible to switch out the stem with other ones like cherry mx reds

[@Daschla]

14:00 - 14:10 Did anyone else do this before watching the video....?

[@TheCliffy007]

lol...pc on!

[@Kiadaw77]

ABS is opaque. It is also a soft plastic. The normal keys can be made from ABS, or PC/ABS, but if you need backlight, you need to use PC (Polycarbonate), a harder material that can be translucent. Another possibility is PMMA, but it is less likely due to it being brittle.

This might be my favorite lmg video. Just bought a Ducky one 2 mini.

Why are you eating keyboard switches? Is she a cannibal?

[@BrandonBeanland]

Akshay P V did you just assume the keyboard's gender?

[@akshaypv1313]

BBeanland Yes. He is not gay, is he?

[@travdump209]

Akshay P V the cishets are at it again on this comment chain, I see

[@akshaypv1313]

I just tried to make a joke. Sorry for assuming the gender of the keyboard.

[@setha2z544]

Is this Sexaphobic Nerdism, or the other way around ?

[@iamrengoo7857]

Is there weight to that keyboard?

[@ChrisD4335]

I skipped ahead to the lube section an was dissapointed

[@dho]

This guide is sponsored...they don't want to encourage 12-year olds to crack open their keyboard with a Radioshack iron to lube their switches.

[@KezzaMacFezza]

stop trying to get likes -_-

[@CRASDFGH]

I just passed the 3 min mark and I thought it was weird you didn't suggest knowing your spacebar size. The bottom row can very and I had to look up mine when buying my clear caps. The ctrl key can be 1.5 or 1 and the alt key can be smaller, the space bar can be like 5-8 or something. I think mine was 6.5. Units being one standard letter key size . so the S key is 1. also esc key is like .75 for mine.

[@brodiemcdonald6492]

BlazzedTroll I know this is an old comment but usually a standard bottom row is 1.25u keys for control and that and a 6.25u spacebar. Also what board did or do you have with that weird escape?

[@AngeloMellow]

This is exactly what I needed. Thanks.

[@patrickledgerwood5163]

every 60 seconds a minute passes in africa like 4 prayers

[@DrewMorv]

[@dixie_rekd9601]

I just throw my keyboard in the washing machine once a year...

[@bailey2296]

AwesomeVindicator but it's electric?

[@moko4980]

Bailey it was a joke made 4 yrs ago

[@darthollpheist1156]

Pok3r RGB all the way. I have a Max Blackbird TKL, but it was still too big for my work area so I needed to go to a mini. I got the Ducky mini but broke it trying to clean it. The case in it is so hard to remove and the tabs just broke instead of letting me pop off the lower plate. So, I ordered the Pok3r RGB because why not? It's only a few bucks more than the non-back lit one and I already have a set of black lit PBT keys. So why not go with a board that is really popular and has great reviews. And, you can turn the Caps Lock key into a Fn key to use arrows really easily. I loved my time with the Ducky mini, but I'm looking forward to the Pok3r RGB.

[@yssa1945]

wow linus youve come a long way

[@aggressivepizza2394]

360p club

[@MrCyclops00]

same

[@cassidylush]

1080p internet with crappy integrated graphics club. Anything over 720 will stutter and lag massively until the player crashes.
