It'll arrive in time for me to assemble during my upcoming #holiday break, during which I will very much enjoying nerding out. #HackClub #HackTheWorld #Ctrl+Alt+Create #RightToRepair

  10. Reporting great success in gradual moving away from proprietary platforms! Specifically away from Android TV and toward a web client on Linux on a cheap low wattage PC or open(ish)-booting ARM like Raspberry Pi.

    Anyone remember WebTV?!? Let's go back...to the future!

    My excuse for all this is that my bride is fed up with the way our Android TV dongles get jankier over time. She complained, but saw the open standards glint in my eye and said "I am not using a keyboard to watch TV!"

    So, I am using the flirc TV IR receiver (and configuration app) plus the keynav utiltity (awesome in its own right for saving your time reaching for a mouse).

    I configured a few remotes we had around. I kept learning, and I finally happened upon the perfect old GE universal remote in the attached picture. Why is it perfect? Because its cursor keys auto-repeat.

    It's absolutely a requirement for laypeople using this set up that the cursor keys on the remote repeat as you hold them down--this allows a normal person to use the cursor keys on the remote exactly like a d-pad or track-point to move the mouse.

    Why someone doesn't just sell a full function PC remote with a trackpoint or d-pad for mouse control is beyond me because air-mice force you to move your whole arm and aim requiring as much nerve effort & motor control concentration as if you're in a firefight.

    Having bought and tried a rather decent air-mouse remote, I'm still sure my family would have rejected an air mouse out of hand. And it didn't have the extra keys that would be nice to have in a web browser (not presentation!) use case.

    So, below are my custom keynav config file (keynavrc) additions.

    #Use below for 1K resolution
    ctrl+semicolon start,cursorzoom 16 16,warp
    #Use below for 4K resolution
    #ctrl+semicolon start,cursorzoom 64 64,warp
    alt+Left end
    Escape end
    Left move-left,warp
    Down move-down,warp
    Up move-up,warp
    Right move-right,warp
    space click 1
    Tab click 3

    TODO: I have yet to figure out how dragging works in keynav. But that's a nice-to-have, not required for this use case.

    Attached is an image of the remote and the mapped keyboard & mouse keys I'll be handing out to my family. I'll even set the Linux user account password to something so they can use just the a, b, c, d, and 0-9 keys mapped exactly as expected.

    (Of course, the media keys not shown mapped in the pic are mapped to PC media keys via the flirc TV config app exactly as expected. And of course a normal keyboard & pointing device will still be available when I need them.)

  11. :CTRL: ALBUM RELEASE IMMINENT :CTRL:

    I've now finished ALL tracks on my upcoming #CTRL album, and it'll be out either tomorrow or Saturday! :MOULE_Stars:

    This #album introduces five new MOULE tracks:

  12. I may as well announce that I've been quietly working on my 3rd #album, #CTRL! :CTRL:

    It's about the Cyber Threat Resistance League, a group stopping dark web malware agents called the :Bugs: Bugs wreaking havoc and trying to bring about The Singularity, and to save their friends trapped by them! With 20 tracks (including 5 new ones), can they save Rocky in time?!

    No planned date, promo videos or pre-ordering this time; it'll be out when it's ready!
