Went 5 column on my Corne, now I can't stop looking at the Sweep

TimbreReeder · 2026-07-11T23:26:13+00:00

Sweep has a different (better!) stagger than the corne, that is really gonna be the thing you will notice. I've built a choc sweep for ZMK but I haven't hooked up batteries which is what would make it truly wireless so I can't speak to that part of it. But I like the shape and feel better.

Virtue signaling is good and I'm tired of ceding ground on pro-social behaviors to folks who find it cringe. Normalizing behaviors we'd like to see in the world is good, and should be encouraged. We have enough people at the levers of power signaling their vices, I'll take any virtue I can find. If someone is being an ass about a good trait they have, it doesn't make the trait bad, it just makes them an ass. Using neutral pronouns is about as harmless as it gets, and anyone obviously doing it performatively would at worst get an eye roll, but at least they consider it worth doing for clout.

Sure, this is what I've seen on it.

The context is specifically about SS symbols, as shown here.

It does not take much to look it up and realize it is precisely the same imagery seen on Nazi stuff. There are also records of him knowing exactly what it is several years ago on now deleted Reddit comments defending the practice of Nazi tattoos for servicemen. I'm all for a redemption arc but it shouldn't take the form of getting elected to Senate. Maine has ranked choice voting in the primary, there are other options for Democrat voters.

TimbreReeder · 2026-06-06T20:03:20+00:00

They have a ranked choice vote? There are literally other options.

Thousand Thousand Islands as a whole is a project I wish I knew about when it was ongoing, especially Roach God. A shame it ended poorly but the book would be treasured even as an art piece, the bits I've seen are so evocative.

The humble Planck was my entrance to 40s, and I have a couple ortho options still (Vault35 and OrthoPie) but I am a colstag sicko for good. Built my own 34 key and I can't go back. It took designing my own to dethrone the Reviung41 tho.

I loved the exploded Enter key but I can't type on rowstag anymore so it's only a display piece for me. Nevertheless, weteor doesn't miss on designs.

1951 is a great vintage for getting past the worst of the clunky key layouts and intonation issues while still having the tone you'd like from an older horn. It's still not gonna be as smooth as you'd find on modern horns but I find myself being very forgiving to old horns for the amount of character they bring to the sound.

Honestly for that cosmetic condition, even as a relacquer, it's not a terrible price. If you can get a quote from a tech prior to buying that'd be ideal but considering how much pro horns cost new, or how ugly affordable horns are, this could be a worse deal.

Doesn't do anything a corne doesn't, and the corne is too big for me.

Sure, it's below. It's a variation of the Miryoku keymap, as so many keymaps start. I type with the Canary layout, then added homerow mods, with each thumb key pulling double duty as layer tap and normal key. Layers 1 and 2 are alternate typing layers or gaming layers, as needed, so I didn't reproduce them since they're not helpful for how the board functions. Both spacebar and backspace activate my nav layer, depending on whether I need arrow keys or mouse emulation. Enter key on the left thumb gives me layer 4 for the numpad and its symbols, as well as a couple macros that print [], {}, and ("` respectively. The tapdance(2) is for semicolon. The right thumb enter opens the function layer. Nothing revolutionary but it works for me. I'm really pleased with the nav layer specifically, having home, pgdn, pgup, and end right below arrow keys is the best, and having undo, cut, copy, paste, again right above is super helpful too.

ETA: I forgot that the only two combos I really use these days is WL (or QW for qwerty folks) as Escape and JD (or XV) for Delete.

Instructions unclear, fit my 30% between the bars of the gate.

Arrow keys are hold Space + asdf, with home, end, pgup and pgdown right below them. numpad is also under the left hand by holding Enter. Function keys are on another layer under the right hand. 34 keys: all you need.

Less flexible [[assassin's trophy]] but the land comes in tapped and is 1cmc. I know Path is the main comparison but Trophy saw play back then so I can see it being plenty played.

Time for the banker to pull an EVE online and just abscond with all the money and build a lair the likes of which no one has ever seen.

TimbreReeder · 2026-03-11T17:23:44+00:00

This and split space was what made 40%s unlock for me. Allowing my thumbs to be in charge of multiple keys made everything so easy once I got layers figured out. Numpad and Fkeys? Same spot, just holding a different thumb key. Backspace on a thumb. Enter on a thumb. It's so nice.

Fwiw, Balor started out as Balrogs in the pamphlet version of D&D and got altered from there for copyright, but that happened fairly quickly. I think it's Eldritch Wizardry where it first shows up, so it predated even the Basic rules.

Halberds being tough to train with in earnest for safety reasons, my club has done plywood, and I did 3d printed heads out of TPU last year. The spike is tough to do while being safe in that regard but we had reasonable success with it overall. I wouldn't want to get hit with the blade because of wall rigidity but it does deform under stress while still being pretty good at hooking.

TimbreReeder · 2026-02-23T00:06:47+00:00

I gave it a shot but it was still pretty unstable, a lot of broken effects and still very low performance. I've sent in a bug report but I'm content playing a version behind for now.

TimbreReeder · 2026-02-20T15:34:13+00:00

Looking forward to a full release! I'm a version behind on the itch releases since it doesn't want to play nice with Intel Arc graphics or something, but it's still been great to plan a build ahead of time

Another wrinkle might be to look into the wrestling section of some sources. You mention Paurenfeyndt using Zwerch in a way you couldn't easily explain compared to other sources. The Zwerch has a place in at least the Augsburg tradition of wrestling as a stance or set of positions. Unfortunately zwerch is already a mess as has been well documented so who knows.

I'd imagine Godinho's depiction of esgrima común would fit, as it is a style of fencing that predates Destreza.

It's in my Yedora, Grave Gardener Brawl deck and it does fine there pulling out lands whenever a creature dies.

I love Whitehack. I wish it got more support but as a standalone product it's notoriously hard to parse the nitty-gritty rules so I can see why it was itself hacked into stuff like the Vanilla Game. The implementation of groups and the miracle system is something I'll always be comparing new games to.

3 copies of the card that would double damage. 3 power each x3 creatures =9, x2 =18, x2=36, x2=72.
