  9. I think I finally have found a solution for my umoria/nethack colemak issue. The answer is $XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT. I can temporary redefine it to be qwerty.

    Edit: I actually tested it and it does not work without restarting river, my wayland compositor, but there is a command which does that, riverctl keyboard-layout which does that.

  12. Light Phone Continues to Fail QWERTY Test

    I have read some articles about the Light Phone and other "minimalist" phones. As someone who wrote not one but two articles on my "ideal" phone concept (creative concept photography included), I am always interested in seeing new ideas in the space. I called for open source software, QWERTY keyboard, and an e-ink screen. The Light Phone, which seems to be one of the more oft-covered "minimalist" phones, checks the e-ink box, but not the other two. Does that change with the new Light Phone? […]

  13. 📰 «Cómo convencer a los usuarios de Windows para que migren a Linux»
    🔗 proxy.jesusysustics.com/2026/0

    Así convences a cualquier usuario de Windows para que se pase a Linux softzone.es/noticias/open-sour

    Me ha hecho gracia esta breve recopilación de estrategias para convencer a usuarios de Windows para que se muden al software libre. Desde la preocupación por la privacidad hasta el amor por la personalización, optimización de recursos o hartazgo por los errores continuos que provocan las actualizaciones.

    Todas son razones más que correctas, pero si seguimos utilizando teclados QWERTY por tradición, cómo vamos a aspirar a un cambio profundo en uso doméstico del Sistema Operativo.

  14. Long before WASD, there was IJKL in Lode Runner (plus UO for digging left and right).

    I also remember Ultima using the [;'/ keys, or even the Return, /, and left and right arrow keys on the Apple ][.

    It’s interesting how movement keys used to be right-hand activities until the mouse became popular as a pointing device; then it turned into a left-handed activity. Even in games that aren’t first-person shooters, WASD remains the default movement keys.

    PL;' never had a chance!

  19. I have been using the DVORAK keyboard instead of the QWERTY keyboard on my phone for 3 years.

    I love it. It's great & efficient.

    You won't feel strain on your thumbs while typing long texts, as it doesn't require the thumbs to move very much.

    And Yes! It requires patience & a learning curve to get accustomed to.

  31. BlackBerry Bold 9000
    (2008)

    The ultimate status symbol for Wall Street executives and celebrities. This premium business smartphone raised the brand's prestige to its absolute peak. It perfectly combined top-tier corporate security with high-end luxury design.

    Specs: 624MHz CPU, 128MB RAM, 1GB storage, microSD slot, 2.6" crisp display (480x320), iconic trackball navigation, Wi-Fi, GPS, 2MP camera, and a stellar 1500 mAh battery.

    It featured a genuine leather back cover and a premium chrome frame. Its sculpted physical QWERTY keyboard is still considered one of the best ever made for typing. Combined with push email and BBM, it was an elite machine.

  36. yeey, finally got myself XDA keycaps! "3" is a bit blurry and some prints are off-centered, but I'm fine with it (after all, those are sub-dyed, not double shot). and there's bunch of extra keys which's awesooome. having 5 shifts is so funny to me for some reason.
    note: I still have hhkb imitation remaps, but I decided to fill (almost) all switches with a cap, so that it looks a bit more normal, but I still play around with those extra keys. :ablobcatbongokeyboard:

    also read The primitive tortureboard. I was already aware of these myths, but I didn’t know the story behind the Dvorak layout. doubt I'll change my layout though, despite the temptation. I just don't want to get lost on a computer if I'm not in my "perfectly crafter rice with most optimised layout and everything"™
    on the other hand, I don't get on someone else's computer that often...

What hasn’t changed: You want to type – and that’s it! No more fiddling around, fixing things, or even having to call in an ops team... that’s why we built Deploio.

  44. There's a lot of talk about physical QWERTY keyboards and whether they're worthy in 2026. I remember a time when they were already there on Android phones.
    Are you this old?

  45. for a quick update on my #dvorak typing.

    i can now type at about 60 wpm consistently. i much prefer it to #qwerty even though i am still less confident with dvorak. i am still able to type in qwerty but it takes a bit of time to activate that muscle memory but i don't really have a reason to switch back unless i am using my #typewriter (i would love to find a dvorak typewriter).
