I've started "The GitHub Art and Custom Message Display on GitHub Contribution Chart" project by noticing the similarities between a GitHub contribution chart and a dot matrix display. They both are based on a grid based display. To provide a message or a simple pixel art, the dots on the specific coordinates needed to be turned on. In the GitHub contribution chart, those dots are basically days on the year. The "brightness" of the dots can be adjusted by changing the commit frequency on a given date. This is the main logic that I've used throughout this project. Overall it worked smooth. However, on the GitHub account that I've used for this project, you can see some artifacts on the GitHub contribution chart. Those artifacts are caused by electrical shortages, initial code errors, overheating on the device and so on. I've been working on this GitHub project for a while so I hope you like it. I had the initial idea of creating some sort of pixel-art via using the GitHub contribution chart but my art-skills are obviously not that good and that would probably take a ages to finish :) So, if someone manages to create some sort of pixel art with this thing, that would be amazing though. Also, let me know if you have any cool project ideas for me to make.

In previous video I demonstrated "How To Make A Custom Metal Keycap" at home. In this one, I modded my keyboard to produce quieter sound without losing any of its "Clickyness". So using the O-ring is not the perfect solution. So I chose a lazy approach which is going with a "Spray Lube" method. I basically spray lubed my Outemu Blue switches to produce quieter noise. Spray lubing also provided a much smoother pressing feel. But keep in mind that, in the spray lube method I've used a silicone based spray lube. Other spray lube options may damage your keyboard. And no, you cannot use WD-40 :) In addition to spray lubing my keyboard, I've greased the larger keys which have stabilizers. Since they have larger mechanical joints, only spray lubing will not cut it. By doing that they become buttery smooth.

However this quick spray lubing process worked properly for me. Keep in mind that, the switch and the keyboard type heavily influence the end result and the process itself. My keyboard is "Motospeed CK101" with Outemu Blue switches. Also a disclaimer, be aware that your experience may vary and this spray lubing process may ruin your keyboard. Remember, spray lubing is kinda a lazy approach. So act responsibly and take necessary health precautions if you attempt this, such as wearing a mask. Hope you like the video, it is my second time filming a physical building process. So, sorry for bad cinematography. I am open for any recommendations :) Thanks to :3ildcat for the inspiration. - His channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeHOkFGW-7uAZFvq3BXb8YA - His Guide on How to Spray Lube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFHomk3IBk0 Socials: - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_a2ClztgYY-hHYI-Qzz8g - Medium: https://medium.com/@mrrandomgenerator - Twitter: https://twitter.com/MrRandomGen #HowTo #MechanicalKeyboard #SwitchLubrication #MrRandomGenerator Music Used –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Punch Deck - Dream 13 (Instrumental Mix): https://soundcloud.com/punch-deck/dream-13-instrumental-mix -Punch Deck Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3M9... -PunchDeck Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/punch-deck ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CevbdkGVtzo
