it does, naturally, require having at least 2 nodes, 1 of which at the moment is keeping up w/ the net. |

previously i had an even moar barbaric kludge, powered by dumpblock, eatblock, and sftp ! to do same job. |

i met a fella who used 'dragon' (in 2010s, i had last seen it on warez in 1990s) , he had parkinson's disease |

asciilifeform |
^ variant of ye olde microwriter iirc |
| 16:49 |
mats |
key chording is how i initially developed the injury |
| 16:49 |
asciilifeform |
re feet -- asciilifeform has pedals for 'meta keys' but not attempted text entry via pedal |
| 16:49 |
mats |
lots of vim and then custom key combinations for gaming |
| 16:50 |
asciilifeform |
hm i thought vi/vim were all about avoiding chordage |
| 16:50 |
asciilifeform |
(e.g. the dreaded 'emacs pinky' disease) |
| 16:51 |
asciilifeform |
and afaik current theory re rsi disease is that only lateral movement of fingers/wrist contributes |
| 16:51 |
asciilifeform |
so theoretically a purpose-made chorder would not |
| 16:52 |
mats |
maybe |

asciilifeform not expert on subj. had early symptoms of wrist rot 20y ago but halted as soon as discovered proper spring kbds |

thimbronion |
asciilifeform: Have you tried a keyboard with a column stagger layout? |
| 17:05 |
asciilifeform |
unlike the better-known 'model m', there's no rubber in these, nor rivets, 100% parts replaceable |
| 17:05 |
thimbronion |
asciilifeform: I find with row stagger I need to contort my hands to fit. |
| 17:06 |
asciilifeform |
thimbronion: have not. not sure what the point is ( plus they only seem to be available in heavily 'castrated' layouts, lacking not only 'left side f' but f keys in general ) |
| 17:06 |
asciilifeform |
imho if yer contorting, yer kbd is too small |
| 17:06 |
thimbronion |
asciilifeform: was experiencing it on an 80s model m. |
| 17:06 |
asciilifeform |
strange |
| 17:08 |
* |
asciilifeform finds it odd that there's (afaik) no folx making custom-tailored kbd for individual measurements. when you get a suit, or prosthetic foot, or eyeglasses, it is ordinarily expected that it'll be cut to fit you. but for some odd reason not kbd. |
| 17:08 |
asciilifeform |
it's rather like if erryone were expected to wear exactly the same shoes. |
| 17:09 |
thimbronion |
hey well there are iphones of all sizes! |
| 17:09 |
asciilifeform |
lol all 3 of'em or wat |
| 17:09 |
thimbronion |
couple of different ipad sizes, maybe 3 different iphone sizes. |

asciilifeform |
screen-drawn kbd ergonomic nightmare at any size |

indeed. |

there's apparently a 'kbd customizing' subculture, but afaik 100% focused on cosmetic wankage ('lm-themed keycaps!111' etc). cuz actual shape customization requires cutting metal, i suppose |

Best "modern" mechanical kbd I've found so far was unknown brand I found called "Redragon" ... been using the thing for 2 yrs now, handily cleans up in dishwasher nicely. |
| |
↖ |
| 17:16 |
asciilifeform |
shinohai: i've thrown out, with disgust, erry 'modern' type bought so far -- they all eventually develop 'bounce' (contacts fatigue.) and none have left-side function keys, which i actually use, to avoid contortions |
| 17:18 |
shinohai |
Yeah this one is "compact" and has no fn keys on side, but does sit atop the lappy keyboard just fine. (HP has a horrid keyboard on lappys) |
| |
~ 1 hours 14 minutes ~ |
| 18:32 |
asciilifeform |
shinohai: per asciilifeform's lights, if a kbd won't stop a .22 round (at least), then flimsy rubbish |
| 18:33 |

e.g. 'model f', has ~6mm of steep b/w yer fingers and the desk. |

Being displayed for sale at Tienda Inglesa isn't necessarily a damnation. Very good things and very awful things are sold there side by side. Does suggest the brand isn't entirely unknown. |

I think it's an item more known amongst the pc-gamer populace. I bought simply for size and has backlit keys to make typing @ night much easier. |
