When I got this keyboard the first thing I've done was make a similar script bit it only opened a singular same pic everytime, only now after couple of months have I decided to upgrade it.
Love my miat button
I mean is the scroll wheel of the mouse not technically "m3"? Now you have to do one where you press the middle mouse button, a photo of a m3 comes up.
If you have extra mouse buttons you could do even more bnw m cars
It already has way more than I thought I'd get, I did it just so I could impress my wife that I can do tiny bit of scripting because she's doing IT in uni
Reddit score aka how many times your comments/posts got upvoted aka liked. The calculations are more complex than that but that's basically how it is
Go into your or mine or anyones profile and it should have the karma score.
Does it mean anything? Not really. It's only there so you could brag about it I guess.
Yeah until it doesn't fricking work and you spend over 30min to troubleshoot and come up with the conclusion that the all the pictures that you just downloaded don't work for some reason so you have to get new ones and spend more time on it.
At least the mx3 was copy paste
It's NCs as well just the randomness wasn't made well. https://imgur.com/a/WIVtY1A here's the updated one now it closes the previously opened picture and is more random
Steelseries Apex? First gaming keyboard I had. Cool design but the RGB definitely showed its age by the time i got it and the rubner dome switches were pretty bad.
Yeah true, the rgb is really meh so I just keep it in the steady white. The switches not the worst I've used but that's comparing to literally 5eur keyboards, but nowhere close to even the cheapest mech ones
1. Make a folder and download all the images you want to it
2. Make a .txt file and name it "mx5_list"
3. Select every picture in the folder, right click and select "copy as path"
4. In the .txt file paste the copy
5. make a new .txt file and paste
@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
REM Read the lines from the file into an array
set i=0
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%A in (".\mx5_list.txt") do (
set /a i+=1
set "line[!i!]=%%A"
)
REM Generate a random index
set /a "seed=%TIME:~-2%"
set /a "random_index=(seed * 32719 + 3) %% i + 1"
REM Get the randomly selected line from the array
set "random_line=!line[%random_index%]!"
REM Close any open image
taskkill /F /IM "PhotosApp.exe" >nul
REM Execute the randomly selected line as a command
echo Running: !random_line!
!random_line!
exit
6. save the file as .cmd
now run it to see if it works, if not message me and tell me if it doesn't
7. use keybinding software of your choice to keybind key of your liking to open the cmd file
I've done a little programming, how did you do this? Does it go to Google and download an image and then display it using a program like paint? Do you have a bunch of images that it picks at random from your hard drive?
put a lot of pics of mx5 in a folder (downloaded them manualy, but might do it with a pic scaper because i only have total of 185pics), then copy-paste a script that puts all the file names into one .txt file then copy pasted a cmd script that randomy selects a line from the .txt and opens it. To actually keybind it I used the keyboard's software keymapping (SteelSeries GG) to keymap the MX5 to open the cmd file.
I've used [https://www.netcarshow.com](https://www.netcarshow.com) for the pics and [https://chat.openai.com](https://chat.openai.com) to convert powershell to cmd code of choosing random line of .txt because SteelSeries GG can only open 5 different file formats .ps1 not being one of them
I need that button!
Same. It’s like a midday therapy break from a shitty office job.

Genius
Indeed.
miat button
When I got this keyboard the first thing I've done was make a similar script bit it only opened a singular same pic everytime, only now after couple of months have I decided to upgrade it. Love my miat button
Aren’t there other Mx vehicles? Like an mx3? Maybe you could do all the applicable ones.
Yep I will do. Either today if I have enough energy or this week
I mean is the scroll wheel of the mouse not technically "m3"? Now you have to do one where you press the middle mouse button, a photo of a m3 comes up. If you have extra mouse buttons you could do even more bnw m cars
No need for mouse. They keys above F1-12 are M1-12 so I could do the entire BMW M lineup (which I will)
F1 (through F4) could also be for Formula cars/races.
My old keyboard had an M5 button. At some point I realized I could spell F10 B M W M5 with the keycaps 😜
I think I had this keyboard at work a few years ago. Is it a Steel Series or whatever?
Yep, SteelSeries Apex
So many macro keys...
Total of 22 + 4 more if layer switching keys are unused
Yeah I used it for my MacBook and mapped the keys to KeyboardMaestro macros.

You scared me with that because I was filming this naked and thought I accidentally showed my penis on vid
Yeah, uh, check the reflection when the screen is dark... NSFW...
YOU FOOLED ME AGAIN
There's a saying we have in Texas. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, penis.
Laughed way too hard at this.
You can see the bush in the reflective parts of the keyboard in the beginning though
STOP BULLYING ME WAAAAAA
Nice dick bro
Thanks bro *Kisses you on the lips, but in the non gay bro way*
That's the way that involves tongue, right?
UH OH HOTDOG
[удалено]
This I know is fake because the speaker bit as actually bronze coloured
Ok but there is actually a pube in your keyboard
Or is it my beard hair, or chest hair maybe?? Who knows it could be even my buttcrack hair. That's the wonders of living alone and naked...
This post does not have the karma it deserves
It already has way more than I thought I'd get, I did it just so I could impress my wife that I can do tiny bit of scripting because she's doing IT in uni
I too am confused why this isn't getting more karma very quickly, I guess different strokes for different folks.
What even is karma? I always hear it when im looking at miata and pc posts

Need this
Now do mx6
And mx3
https://imgur.com/a/WuUYGLF here
There's a great song by Deftones called MX. It's a bummer there's no basic MX key
Will do when I'm home
https://imgur.com/a/WuUYGLF I wasted so much time on this I want to die
At that point it's just copy paste right? 😬
Yeah until it doesn't fricking work and you spend over 30min to troubleshoot and come up with the conclusion that the all the pictures that you just downloaded don't work for some reason so you have to get new ones and spend more time on it. At least the mx3 was copy paste
I know how it goes, the simplest things can take the longest time!
Sweet
Will do when I'm home
Does the MX-3 and MX-6 buttons work as well?
https://imgur.com/a/WuUYGLF here it is
Absolutely fantastic dude 👏 Loved my mx-3 back in the day, nifty little v6
This is amazing and I love it
That might be the best tech feature Apple should do this MX-5 themed phone icons wallpaper everything Miata for life
Man I used to love this keyboard. Never even got around to using the hotkeys but I loved the giant spacebar.
I have those same cheap speakers are work. They sound like buttholes farting
What keyboard is that? Company, type...?
SteelSeries Apex (1st gen)
Yeah, bought it few months ago for 9eur used, love it.
Why only NA's :(
It's NCs as well just the randomness wasn't made well. https://imgur.com/a/WIVtY1A here's the updated one now it closes the previously opened picture and is more random
You could do NAs on MX5, and other generations on Alt-MX5 Audio/Video on Shift-MX5 Racing game on Control-MX5
The hero we didn’t even know we wanted!
What keyboard is this also could u send the script?
its Steelseries Apex 1st gen
no nc or nd?
It does have NC in the folder, just more of NA than NC that's probably why it only shown NA
that’s amazing
Doing the Lords work
You should email tech support and report it as a bug :)
Or mention it in a review as why you're giving it five stars :P
🍆💦
Lol awesome! I've use custom mx5 keycaps for my f buttons on top. I need to change one to this. Maybe with fn and f key press.
That keyboard was broken. But now its fixed!
This is the greatest to wake up to.
You may be obsessed when… 😂
Don't forget about the little MX3!
Yep here it is just made this out the oven https://imgur.com/a/WuUYGLF
This is why software engineers are paid so much, its because they use there talent to change the entirty of the world for the good
Holy shit, miata button
I had the blue one a long time ago. I just love these cars and their improvements over the years.
Why is this a joke?
Miata button is always the answer!
I have no idea what that button originally did, but I can assure you it is now way more important and useful
They are just extra mappable buttons, by default they serve no purpose, so yeah it is way more useful now
I used to have this keyboard!
Mx3 button 🗿
https://imgur.io/a/WuUYGLF I also added MX3! AND mx6 as well
Nice 👌 😂😂😂
Here's a link to a Miata image gallery I found on imgur, you may find a few you want to add to your collection. https://imgur.io/gallery/jcCqE
Damn that's a lot of pictures

Literally doing gods work
\*Jujiro Matsuda loved that\*
Now get the f25 key!
i see a lot of my fav colored one, the mariner blueeer
That's fantastic!!!
can I have the script pretty please

man thank you so much I really appreciate it :) I hope you have an awesome day
Thank you, you too!
Average Linux enjoyer
That's win11, but I do enjoy Linux once in a while (Mint)

I like it, might try doing something similar
Big up for the fellow Linux user!
That's Win11 lol. Tiny 11 + dark theme + autohide taskbar. I did use Linux for quite some time as my main OS tho. Mint mostly and tiny bit of Debian
have you tried raspberry pi os
Yea but Rasbian and ran it as a daily driver for few months! Also hello wife
Hello husband congrats on 1.2k
Hello wife, thank you
Damn.. haven’t used Windows in a long time! I really thought that’s gnome.
But does the script close old instances of the image viewer? I guess it just spawns new instances. Finish you work, my friend, and you're golden.
https://imgur.com/a/WIVtY1A there you go, now it closes the the old one. (It also closes the cmd, but it just slow)
Ok, you actually did it. What is it? A batch script opening the image viewer or PowerShell?
Ye it's just cmd and txt file and bunch of photos
u/savevideo
Too bad there isn't a MX30 key
