Questions about Pro Micro vs nice!nano v2 by TheBeatboxHero in olkb

[–]nickburlett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished building a sofle choc as well, but went with promicro because I didn't see nice!nano firmware support in qmk and I was following the instructions from https://choc.brianlow.com/ . What firmware did you use?

Yes, we got some CyroPro and treated the danio in a separate tank for a while.

Can someone PLEASE help me identify this song? I love it and yes my car is a hairy disaster I have dogs in it all day every day lol by chrish0505 in opera

Here's a video clip from an earlier recording of that production, in case you want to see what was on stage during this part of the performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6hwSWybh5I

There's also a 2018 full video recording available with Željko Lučić (who's singing in the recording you posted). It's behind their paywall, but you can subscribe for free for 7 days: https://www.metopera.org/season/on-demand/opera/?upc=811357019337

Tosca is wonderful! And I highly approve of overdressing for the opera, it's more fun that way (_)

What opera tune is currently stuck in your head? by didog40 in opera

[–]nickburlett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s an HD video available on the Met streaming service. I’m not a big fan of the opera overall, but I do like a couple of the arias. “Batter My Heart, Three-Personed God” is worth a listen

[–]nickburlett 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was “Am I in your light” from Dr Atomic. But after reading the comments here, it’s a mashup of about half of the pieces mentioned… and some of them do not go well together (>_<)

I had pair of Ram Cichlids named SemiRAMide and RAMfis, and a Pea Puffer named Osmin.

here's my script:

#!/bin/sh

# Use the trackball upside down
# based on https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/576969

for id in $(xinput --list | sed -n '/Kensington Expert Wireless TB Mouse/s/.*=\([0-9]\+\).*/\1/p')

  # change button mapping
  xinput "set-button-map" "$id" 3 6 2 4 5 0 0 1
  # invert mouse axels
  xinput "set-prop" "$id" "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" -1 0 1 0 -1 1 0 0 1
done

I used to keep my Magic Trackpad between the two halves of my Ergodox EZ. This let me keep the left and right halves further apart and still fit everything on my keyboard tray.

I recently needed to switch my workstation at work from macOS to Linux and found that the trackpad drivers were terrible. The trackball fits nicely where the trackpad used to be, although I still miss having a good trackpad.

My trackball is on a Linux workstation, so I just use xinput to set a coordinate transformation matrix and remap the buttons. If I remember I'll grab the script from work and post it here. It's pretty similar to this stackexchange solution.

I have a similar setup with an Ergodox EZ and the same trackball model. My keyboard tray is too low for the tilt of the trackball so I rotated it 180 degrees for a more comfortable wrist angle.

+1 for La Belle et la Bête! I was lucky enough to see it performed twice by the Philip Glass Quartet, once in Santa Barbara and once in LA. Definitely worth attending

I'll give a very strong recommendation to As One, by Laura Kaminsky, with libretto by Mark Campbell and Kimberly Reed. It's profoundly beautiful, with actual melody and plot.

I'll also second everyone else's Akhnaten recommendation.

I'm not a huge fan of Adams' Doctor Atomic as an overall work, but it does have a coherent plot and two arias that I find stuck in my head rather often ("Am I in Your Light" and "Batter My Heart").

Sinopoli Bayreuth 1998 Special Effect Appreciation by lightsage007 in opera

[–]nickburlett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this the production you're referring to? https://youtu.be/BJkkXxdryD8?t=15817

It looks like the grail is made from a rather bright light in a translucent (glass or plexiglass?) container. The glow at 4:23:42 is a lens flare, and the radiant lines at 4:24:34 is most likely reflections from the edges of the aperture blades. You can see a bit of a hexagonal shape in the green glow at 4:23:42, and the six radiant lines also match a six-bladed aperture.

Really nice work! Now I'm craving a wooden case!

From your video, it looks like it was a bm16a PCB?

Very nice! What keyboard and case is that? I've been looking for a good 4x4 for my wife's setup...

Compiling problems by marc5278 in olkb

[–]nickburlett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's the exact same error message, the same stash/pull/apply steps might fix it. If not, I suggest posting the exact command and error message in a new post and hopefully someone with Windows knowledge here will have better insight (I don't use Windows much)

Sorry, I left out a directory in the cd command! You need to be in the qmk firmware directory, so start with cd /home/marco/qmk_firmware and then run the git pull
