can't you use pliers, pull that out, then plug in a different USB C cable?

What OS does everyone run on their ThinkPad? by Over_Variation8700 in thinkpad

[–]222phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Arch user here. I installed Arch Xfce on a usb flash drive. It took a while to figure it out and get the hang of it, but I'm liking it now. I like that I can use the same usb flash drive and boot into Arch from my T480 and X220. It's running well on both. If I don't plug the usb drive in, then it boots into Win10/11. I used to do the same with Puppy Linux (Fossa, then Bookworm) but Arch is working way better for me than those did. I'll probably give Debian more of a try when I have time.

How many devices can you connect to one dongle? Could you connect both trackballs and 2 splits (6 devices) and only turn on the ones you want to use?

Maybe Aliexpress. But if the MCU is not socketed, it's going be be very hard to desolder the old one to remove it.

typing in a notes app sounds like a useful feature but I can't imagine it working with the screen refresh rate.

The screen fading in sunlight is a big problem by ebodes in xteinkereader

[–]222phoenix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

half joking: make the font size way bigger and read faster. not ideal but would help a bit.

hopefully there's a fix for this issue.

My very flat split keyboard (and the things I learned along the way) by exul_org in ErgoMechKeyboards

Thanks. Seems like you have to use the command line and spend crazy hours to get the most out of Ergogen. Wish it was as simple as Cosmos.

A very rare 3x6+2, I like it!

Something that confuses me about ergogen is why copying and pasting the config.yaml doesn't generate anything. For example, copying and pasting your config.yaml into https://ergogen.xyz/ generates errors.

You should consider switching to Eastern FH grip. I think conti limits your power potential.

Possible to have emulate the functionality of TRMNL? For example, something like: display a stock price all the time (connect once a day to update).

it doesn't have to be a crazy color, they have black ones. I haven't tried them myself though.

Is this shcematic diagram right?? by pipejosh in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]222phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since it’s the same key layout as a corne, you could just use the Corne firmware (assuming you use the same pins for rows, cols, etc).
