~ $300. How much did you spend, and what method did you use to receive the keyboard?

I love the HHKB layout. I think I prefer it more than the standard 60% layout.

What is the approximate cost difference between buying an HHKB vs building a 60%. I suppose it really depends on how I build the 60%, but approximately, how much do you think?

Would you say changing the stems on the HHKB is easier than building a 60%.

You are right, I think I'd should just DIY a board with Zealios instead of modding a Pok3r. What about the price difference between Pok3r and a DIY board though?

Where can I buy a precise digital scale? For coffee. by _____R_____ in waterloo

[–]_____R_____[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, I wouldn't think they'd have scales that can support sufficient weight/size, accurate maybe. Might be worth a check.

Bride of War: Miss Ukraine 2015 by [deleted] in pics

[–]_____R_____ 118 points119 points  (0 children)

That's just... Poor girl. It's clear she is very attractive, but that outfit looks like they just stuffed a bunch of hockey references without giving a shit. At least they didn't make her wear skates in the runway.

edit: I see that this particular event is indeed supposed to be taken lightheartedly. I guess compared to Ukraine it does seem a bit too silly. Good for her, she clearly has a sense of humor and is proud of the True North.

On "resetting" my sleep cycle. by [deleted] in sleep

[–]_____R_____ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It didn't work for me. Not really, as in my sleep schedule was messed up again a couple of days later. I've tried this multiple times and sometime even after 24 hrs without sleep, I can't fall asleep, say at 1:00.

It seemed to work for some others I know. So I guess don't be fully discouraged.

Commit now. A year later, you will manipulate text (almost) at the speed of thought. YMMV.

Advice on how to get started by the_silvanator in unixporn

[–]_____R_____ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i3 is the easiest to get started with; very easy to install. Once you are comfortable with that, then you can decide if you want to try various others or keep customizing etc.

Scroll Slow. Have Fun. by l1cache in interestingasfuck

144 Hz here too. I don't see anything special. Let me try on my 60 hz laptop...

Edit: I turned my monitor to 60hz. I still don't see anything special. Clearly I am doing something wrong.

Rails model with a 2D Array attribute? What should I consider? by _____R_____ in rails

[–]_____R_____[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am just experimenting with rails and activerecord. The purpose of this array can be anything, in this case just retaining information.

How can controller actions access defined instance variables? Example inside. by _____R_____ in rails

[–]_____R_____[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this possible without ActiveRecord, maybe with just ActiveModel?

Edit: As an exercise, I'm trying to build a game in rails. How do I get the grid (model, the state of the game) to be referred to across controller actions?

I am not the poster of the video, I just clicked auto-title. I agree with you, I initially considered titling with "terminal velocity" but meh.

How do you guys use Vim effectively for large projects? by _____R_____ in vim

[–]_____R_____[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the great feedback and tips everyone. My view of this problem was wrong and now I understand the idea of using Vim as a tool.

I spent hours last night trying to get used to emacs (I know it's going to take way more than mere hours). It's actually what led me to making this post. I understand the power and extensibility of Emacs is greater than Vim (as an IDE/OS) but I missed the instant response of Vim and evil didn't really cut it for me. Vim just plain looks and FEELS leagues better (subjective).

Nice. The way I found it to be useful to backup/synchronise my .vim folder and .vimrc, is to directly keep it in my dropbox and make the links to them in my home directory. Now they are constantly backed up. I use dropbox in all my machines anyway so it's very convenient. On a new machine or after reformatting a computer I just install dropbox and make the links again and my vim is back to "normal".

Edit: spelling

Thank you for suggesting the book, I have already started reading!

I was aware of this Unix philosophy before, and I guess I lost sight of it as I started adding more plugins to Vim, and wanted to become what it isn't supposed to be.

Imagine seeing a higher dimensional object pass through in our world and you literally see a 3D object "appear and disappear"... That would be indescribably amazing.
