The new displays for my Corne-ish Zen have arrived. I've had it for over three years, and everything is still working great, except for these two sunlight-phobic vampires ⌨️ :neofox_bongo:

Bon, j’ai un MicroJournal Rev 2:

https://github.com/unkyulee/micro-journal/blob/main/micro-journal-rev-2-revamp/readme.md

J’ai mis à jour Raspian, j’ai passé le clavier en #ergol et là, catastrophe ! Comme le clavier est hyper custom, je suis complètement perdu.

Une idée de comment il faut avancer chez les #ergonautes ?

C’est un truc qui pourrait intéresser @NuclearSquid ;-)

Ugh, so the Moonlander software (QMK) does have caps word built in. But… using a layer key breaks the word. So, only good if the characters you need are all on the main layout. Or if you want to custom compile the firmware to ignore layer keys.

Of all the things going on, custom compiling firmware for a keyboard is not a thing that I want to add to the pile.

So close, yet so far…

After 5 years of aggressive use, my keyboard needed some upkeep and upgrades.

@bouncinglime @keira_reckons If the X-Bow caught your interest there are lots of hobby level #ErgonomicKeyboards, often with keys in columns for each finger, with stagger (offset for different finger lengths) and/or splayed (rather than parallel). These are generally #MechanicalKeyboard designs where the switches and keycaps can be changed (silent, smooth, clicky, weak/strong springs). Off the shelf look at eg https://www.zsa.io/voyager - and for small hands in addition too less keys for less stretching, I would focus on the smaller and tighter spaced low profile “choc” keys.

I've got to say, Boardsource.xyz has done right by me.

I have my beloved lily58 back up and running thanks to a replacement pcb/micro-controller. Many thanks to all who gave me troubleshooting pointers. I think it was a defective micro-controller all along.

My digits are confused but happy to be back to column staggered!

Yesterday, I got my first ever manufactured PCBs in the mail! So excited to rebuild my keyboard! ⌨️

I'm reading good things about the Logitech Ergo K860. Does anyone have experience with one?

#splitkeyboard #ErgonomicKeyboards and #mechanicalkeyboard enthusiasts. I tore the usb port out of the Arduino of my redox keyboard.

I don't have the time to resolder and/or rebuild. What would you recommend and specifically any stores I can buy preassembled ones. Must be split, must be full-ish l. Looking at https://www.zsa.io/moonlander but not convinced about the wrist wrests

Hot damn!

OK, my Corne is now ready for some tinkering with QMK 😸 I really love the Cherry MX Grey switched I put in there 😻
And my Cantor finally got a nice case.

I guess I'll now have some boards to bring to #Mechanicon next year.

Well, until then I might have more than two to bring along 😹 (although these are pretty basic ones)

Finally assembled my Cantor keyboard which is now ready for firmware flashing :yayblob:
Took me about two hours of soldering time - mainly because I misangled one of the controller sockets.

Now I wanna code some neo inspired firmware into it to make my life easier - and hopefully that of anyone else trying to use my computer much harder 😹

The next project might be a fully lighted Corne keyboard

I just got the old/new Cinema Display and it’s really nice to stretch out on projects like this for the first time

I don’t have too little space to see everything. It’s neat

The thing runs hot though. I can feel it in the room with me and want to turn it off whenever I don’t need it

Looks fancy though

I spent an inordinate amount of time and money in the last few years learning about #ErgonomicKeyboards as I developed a hand tremor and got so I couldn’t type at all on a normal one

#idea: design a logo that contains hammer, sickle and a split ergo keyboard.

sickle for farm workers. hammer for industrial workers. split ergo keyboard for computer workers.

Finished printing one side of my dactyl manuform and had to try the keycaps on for size 😻
Too bad I didn't order more in light blue. Well, maybe next time.

Now I gotta clean the print, apply the switches and start soldering - and find one and a half free days to print the other side ...

Graduating from a retail (Microsoft) split keyboard to a #glove80 … May the odds be ever in my favor. #splitkeyboard #ErgonomicKeyboards

@hund Thanks for your article on https://hunden.linuxkompis.se/2024/06/07/my-keyboard-may-2024.html

However, never ever test an ortholinear #keyboard if you want to be happy with your keyboard "for the rest of [your] life". 😜

Not sure whether your friend or you are aware, but it may be (also) worth looking into sculpted/keywell #ErgonomicKeyboards. There are reports of people who could no longer type without pain at all switching to those and becoming pain free.

I recently picked up a Voyager split keyboard to complement my Moonlander and even though they're super similar, it’s taking some getting used to. #keyboards #ErgonomicKeyboards

Anyone got a recommendation for an ergonomic keyboard? I'm using it 8-10 hours a day and I'm a touch typer. Quiet would be nice and I'm a sucker for backlit, but basically I want something a little bigger. My current default keyboard is a little small and cramped and I'm tired of always hitting the wrong keys.

Computer keyboard, not musical keyboard!! 😁 ⌨️ 🖥️

happy #InternationalWomensDay! i'd like to give a shoutout to Naoko Takeuchi & CLAMP, the powerhouses of shoujo manga. 🫶🏽🌸

many grew up inspired by their beloved creations and have gone on to become artists. myself included.

sharing my ergodox that started it all.
