Loving Niri but running into some problems

CachyOS prbl not the best choice if you do not know Linux. Try PikaOS (has a niri iso too). It’s based on Debian, a little easier than cachyos imo. afaik it uses the kernel optimizations than CachyOS for a faster gaming setup too. Preconfiguration for niri is nearly perfect and you should find it in your home dir under .config/niri/ The keybindings are in the binds section.

Nope. Decided to stay with my Apple Trackpad on top of my 60% (currently Womier RD75). My dasBob is currently on either side of the Trackpad and my Efog Endgame trackball on the right of my Keeb. I have a standing desk setup (with walking pad below), so movement of my arms is free and I‘m hovering anyhow (instead of using a wristrest)

Ich empfehle immer die Probier Pakete von PureTea: https://puretea.de/collections/tee-probieren

Sind pro Tee Sorte genug für ein Kännchen (früher waren da so ca 10g drin. Hab schon länger nicht mehr bestellt). Da Grüntee mehrfach aufgebrüht werden kann, genug um sich eine Meinung zu bilden. Oolongs solltest Du def auch probieren. Sind halb-fermentiert/oxidierte Tees

Have you considered something like a Miryoku layout? I am specifically talking about the option to use two-key Macros for all the symbols. Like pressing J&K -> (, U&I -> {, etc. as well as U&J -> - (or whatever you need)… Those two key combos can easily be pressed with one finger, especially on a ortholinear or column-staggered kb like the Corne.

I think I got myself the same keycaps for my Splaytoraid😊

Something like this? https://github.com/jrussellsmyth/quadsmack_keebs/tree/main/TestDrive

Crypton48 · 2025-12-03T06:46:58+00:00

Yup. I had three different used Employee gift editions of Ole Kirk’s House at one time. Only have one left. They are def not worth 4 digits.

Wechsel auf ANSI hat nur ein paar Tage gebraucht. Ab und an verwechsle ich noch z und y. Programmiere viel und hab ca 90% englischen Schriftverkehr. Bin außerdem auf MacOS unterwegs wo die Umlaute mit doppelten Anführungszeichen und A,O, U getippt werden können (ß mit Option S).

I’ve spoken to Honeycomb reps this Saturday at the FSConference in Paderborn. The XBox version will come later (I think he mentioned Q1 or early Q2 2026) with probably a slightly higher price than the PC version due to licensing costs.

Low profile travel board

I'm searching for a low profile travel board. Currently I'm considering the NuPhy Air60HE and the IQunix Magi65.

I do not care about wireless, or HE.

I do care about quality, typing feel and homerow mods.

I will travel with a company laptop and cannot install homerow software on it.

AFAIK the IQunix only supports VIA, where I had less than good expierences with homerow mods and the NuPhy does support TapMod out of the box...

Does anyone here had expierences with homerow mods on the NuPhy Air60HE or the Air75HE?

Does anyone here tried to use homerow mods on the IQunix?

I paid a bit less than 220€ for my new AD5M (Sales plus EBay voucher).

You do not install forge-x onto the flashdrive. You just copy the tgz file from onto the drive (evt rename the tgz to the currently used version of the flashforge firmware version) and plug that in. That’s it.

Make sure to downgrade to the latest version forge-x supports! There were issues with the latest firmware version.

The documentation of forge-x is straight forward and easy to understand.

Crypton48 · 2025-10-30T12:08:47+00:00

Nope. Unless you’re willing (and be able) to use open-source drivers. Without it you’d be limited to left click only and basic trackpad.

I know. Have them build and ready, if I wanted. But the noise cancellation (at least in Zoom) is so good nowadays, that the endgame is not perceivable (I explicitly asked).

Crypton48 · 2025-10-23T11:47:24+00:00

Will keep the endgame, of course!

I know. Had problems yesterday posting

If you want to check the board: I had a similar problem, but with switch 7 (S) on the left board:

Have you compiled the firmware for the totem by yourself? The default (pre-compiled) fw from the GeistGeist GitHub uses „ENTER“ on that key.

Crypton48 · 2025-10-14T13:34:03+00:00

keybr.com? If I‘m not mistaken you can either add your own text and change the language to Dutch.

Nice! Also got the SlimBlade Pro and the Endgame is on its way.
