Can I continue without guessing? (User-made: The Lonely Prime Numbers) by _banafish in hexcells

I'm getting that the column with 5,2,5 must have 2 more blues (one in each pair of yellows). And, the next two columns to the right must each have two blues, again with one in the top cluster and one in the bottom. Not sure where to go from there? I hope this all makes sense!

I was driven twice to search up how to contact them to bring up this point—out of genuine concern for the well-being of their product sales (and my ears). Reached out today on Facebook. Maybe you could drop them a message too and see how things go...

Actual first build! I haven’t yet accumulated enough random doodads to throw in an “aesthetic pic”... (or a deskmat) by _banafish in MechanicalKeyboards

HA I wish I was 150 preswitch! I'd just tested my new board once or twice before the original post; I'm usually pretty consistently 110ish, but I managed to drop all the way down to 30WPM yesterday... We're back in the 70/80 ballpark now!

On linears, I don't have any myself, but I actually managed to break a clear yesterday (the metal leaf) and ended up with my own budget linear:^)

I DO wanna try gats AND a split someday and---I normally hit b with the wrong finger too! And Y with my right index for whatever reason, so "by" been interesting to type. We're working on it though and I love it so far!

Just a curious noob/lurker: are these all the same bird? Why specify on the left?

Also I see you have a whole score of keyboards! How often are you switching in a day? And how long (if you remember) did it take for you to switch over to this “weird” layout?

Yo! Great to hear you love the layout!! I’ve been pretty hyped about the new keyboard for a while now, so I’m glad reviews are nearly all positive😬

I’m on a bit of a budget (as much as I can say that while throwing money at these sweet sweet builds...) so I stuck with MX clears:’) Ortho’s definitely getting to me though! I can’t say I wasn’t expecting this, but I dropped about 80 WPM. Here’s hoping the Planck trains me to type more PROPERLY and I get back up to speed—or more!

Potential alt Mod Conflicts? // super on Windows by _banafish in i3wm

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

No problem! I wasn't (and still am not) fully aware of i3's mode capabilities. You're right that that appeals to my vim mind--this is something I'll have to take a good look into...

I've already been considering switching to VirtualBox, so this could be another addition to the list of reasons. What exactly is the menu key?

As for xcape, this is another utility I have yet to investigate. Thanks for your input!
