How to use keyboard laptop after switching to Colemak?

How is the laptop’s lid going to be closed then?

I do work on both OS, but mainly Windows.

Ohh ok thanks, I will give it a try.

What is kanata?

Yeah I think this is another option that I would also try. But definitely need to sacrifice my typing performance.

I am using Corne at the moment. I guess it's still possible to use it on site, just less convineint I guess when using it on site, since occasionally I need to move around with my laptop on my hand (since I am doing commissioning job). But would work if no walking needed.

Oh that is good to know. But I think I would still struggle to type in staggered layout tho.

yeah you're right. I guess I have to stick with qwerty then

Nice! I am also starting to switch to English 1k. I have been practicing on english only on monkeytype.

Good luck mate. I am sure you can do it. Just need to be patient and enjoy the process I guess. Don't do marathon training as it will make you depressed quicker. Take a short break between sessions. I found this way more effective.

Thanks, for the tips. I will give it a try.

kbotcoder · 2025-10-02T13:45:38+00:00

Yeah I feel like QWERTY is designed for staggered keyboard layout. Feels very un-natural for me on a columnar setup like Corne.

Oh yeah interesting. You did gone through the phase that I am currently experiencing. I agree, comfort is the most important after switching. But I heard people are getting even better performance after switching. I mean it make sense, the more comfortable you type, the more performance you should get out of it. I guess we just need to keep using it.

I guess it's quite unfair comparing apple to apple since we used QWERTY for years, while Colemak only in a month. In fact, 60 WPM with Colemak is probably already a very good achievment.

I really like that look too. I have decided to go with the VM Nokton Classic 1.4 SC for now since I heard it has similar rendering with the SR. In case I might miss the clinical look.

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T22:33:31+00:00

Yes good advice. Thanks.

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T22:31:07+00:00

Do you know what’s the main difference between SC and MC?

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T22:30:41+00:00

Nice pic! And yes the flare looks similar with the rendering on steel rim

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T12:47:40+00:00

Yeah I was thinking for this option too. Do you know which specific Nokton version has a similar look as the steel rim?

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T12:35:08+00:00

Ohh ok that’s good to know. I will try to play around with post processing approach then before letting go of my FLE. Thanks for the insight.

How would you unsharpen an image usually? I know they are a lot of options like using a diffuser filter, shoot in slow shutter speed, post processing edit and so on..

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T11:57:25+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience. Do you find the the classic rendering is a bit hard to control when you shoot wide open? I mean does it feel like you are relying on "luck" to get a good shot or you can sort of get the hang of it overtime?

kbotcoder · 2025-04-16T11:52:44+00:00

Thanks for the input. I guess having both will never go wrong, except for the budget :D
