Hello, stranger. You shall find here odds and ends that pertain to the act (but not necessarily production) of putting words on paper, threads on fabric, fingers on keys. Isn’t it wonderful to go back to the era of old-school forums?
There’s a blog.

I have a Voyager split keyboard waiting in the mailbox for me today! Last time I used a Moonlander split key, I had to return it because the layout was too big for my hands. Not sure if the Voyager’s going to be an improvement… will share and see if I need to return it.
At work, I use a Kinesis split keyboard that’s more or less standard sized.
In other words, no worries, split keyboards rule :)
Ouch, I had no idea about the GPL violation or what that even meant. Thanks for letting me know. I already felt the ick buying a communication device from a Chinese company but convinced myself to push through… Wish I hadn’t.
The small keyboard is fantastic for quick typing though. I was skeptical at first, but am now totally comfortable using it for daily writing.
Layers. Like you would access capitalization by pressing shift, I access a num keyboard on the right (that lights up in blue) when I press a key. You can customize your own layouts and layers and it’s quite important to do so with a small keyboard like this. I can type equally fast on this thing, as I set commonly used punctuation marks next to my thumbs and moved the ctrl/tab/shift keys to places that are easier to reach.

notsocrazyanymore@feddit.orgOPto Books@lemmy.world•Reading The Language of Climate Politics & Careless People2·27 days agoI find it refreshing to dissect the underlying rationale of anti-climate change talking points. I suggest skipping bits of the science to dive straight into the analysis if you are more interested in the analysis than the facts about climate change.
Ah, that’s cool! My Planck is from the same Taiwanese company. I love these guys. Quality stuff. The main problem I had with the Moonlander was that my thumbs actually don’t reach that far and it was causing quite the strain. I also couldn’t quite reach the top numerical rows without strain. So maybe that’s why this 40% is working so well for me. Glad that you’re enjoying your Moonlander!
