L’anticapitalisme et l’antisémitisme sont des frères jumeaux
  • Hahahahaha! L’anticapitalisme conséquent est la meilleure façon de lutter contre l’antisémitisme moderne.

    Contrepoints est une succursale de la cécité libertarienne qui ne voit la liberté que comme celle de remplir son compte au détriment de tout le reste. Ça serait top que ce déchet reste sur Twitter ou je ne sais quelle dechetterie dédiée.

  • Still not used to splits after a year…how do you type one-handed?
  • Ok so I use a split since two months and the switch is certainly not automatic but the solutions are fairly simple. I’m a good exemple of a user scenario that requires a lot of one-handed operations because I mainly edit text and not writing it and I use a lot of GUI related to graphic work (illustrator mainly but also photoshop). For the following process, I should make clear that I’m on a Mac and it’s clearly a big plus since this platform promotes consistent patterns of shortcuts.

    Text edition :

    • I have a ⇧ and a ⌘ key on my thumbs and arrows on a layer triggered by a thumb. Lateral arrows are set to trigger ⎇+arrow when long press and ⌘+arrow when double presses. With the ⇧ on the right thumb and the arrows (and the layer switch key) on my left hand. Give it a try, I can really quickly select words, lines, etc. For a quick word selection/replacement I have also a simple macro that trigger : “⎇+⬅️, ⇧+⎇+➡️, ⌘-c” (the copy part is just in case I want this bit of text in my pasteboard.
    • I use vim whenever I can. It makes the use of a mouse irrelevant, don’t worry the main selection operation are easy to learn.

    GUI

    • It’s more tricky but I really advise to take a note of every friction in your workflow and find a solution when mandatory. I could give some of my settings but it’s very specific to the app I use. The only advice that could match any situation is a “esc” signal that is always accessible as a combo with the W+E combination, in every layer, I also have a space and I try to get the maximum access of elementary keys but when it replicates a primary action on my right hand, I hide it on my left hand (combo, double-tap)

    I should mention that I use Colemak and that it certainly help compared to layout leaning toward hand switch (Dvorak, Bepo…). But if you’re on QWERTY it should be good.

  • Choosing the correct model of ortho split keyboard

    Hi,

    I use an Ergodox and I’d like to get a keyboard that would best fit my use case :

    • alpha keys without numbers nor side column modifier (3x5 matrix for each hand)
    • 3 keys for each thumb
    • the inner thumb key should be compatible with a larger keycap
    • compatible with choc profile
    • pinky staggering more pronounced than the Ergodox (or the Corne)

    I found the Chocofi that matches all of those criteria but I’m not expert, do you think there is something more suited ? Maybe a variation of the Piantor ?
