- Comment on Trial finds age assurance can be done, as social media ban deadline looms 11 hours ago:
Produce studies and I swear to god if it’s that one where they say kids are scroiling Instagram for 9 hours a day when the report using it as a messenging application I will reach through the screen and strangle you.
Legislation should not be based on vibes ffs. I think Mark Zuckerburg should be hung in a public square and skinned alive for the evil he has wrought with shit like aiding genocide but there is not sufficient evidence that social media, which covers everything from usenet to lemmy to Instagram to youtube, causes harms warranting age based bans. This is a world where we allow coca cola and factory farming, “it’s probably bad for some people some of the time” is clearly not the bar for criminalisation.
- Comment on Trial finds age assurance can be done, as social media ban deadline looms 1 day ago:
Whole thing is a moral panic. No good evidence exists of harms, but nobody needs evidence to believe what they want to.
You could like ban algorithmic endless feeds if that was bad, you could enforce content moderation standards if bad content was the issue. But no, this is just surveillance state expansion and traditional media handwringing being cheerfully assisted by the feckless “think of the children” crowd.

If you need stuff printed I, or someone more local, would be more than happy to help. Otherwise all the knowledge and tools are available for free.

Tried ball transfer units?
I’ve found Ruby balls ok sometimes but BTUs are where it’s at. Expensive though.

How is trackball? I wasn’t sure how easily layering would work giving up easy access to half the thumb cluster.

I strongly recommend checking verticle clearance for the microcontroller if you angle it.
I also strongly recommend living somewhere where asking for enameled wire with an enamel that can be burned off with solder doesn’t get you blank stares.
If you can’t do the latter Livingston sells scapels which work well to remove insulation in the middle of wires.

There are always lunatics, you’d go mad trying to please everyone. It’s one thing to not promote harassment. But if you put something into the stormwater drain of the information superhighway it’s flowing everywhere with the rest or the shit.
You’d get further cursing the rain for falling on you.

What could I learn from that?
The person has not built a dactyl, they have not used this dactyl which has several customisations, they have not sat at my desk, they don’t have my body.
They’re just stating something useless from a position of ignorance because… why? If you don’t know what you’re talking about just don’t say anything. 90% of the misinformation on the internet would disappear overnight if people followed that. As a happy side effect men online might learn some basic manners too.

I have a trackball, but for pixel perfect placement etc. The knobs help me draw badly with more precision.

I haven’t noticed difficulty. Maybe because the layout is so different, maybe I will with time, or maybe I’m just

That’s not helpful

Helpful, how? Obviously I am using palm rests because it is more comfortable than not using palm rests. If I have made them to a specific height one might imagine I had a specific reason no?

indeed. Layers

I also switched to colemakdh with a series of layers and qmk tricks. My typing is quite slow so far, around 30 wpm, I was never an amazing typist but I haven’t noticed difficulty with standard qwerty layouts.
It’s not like you get confused between a harp and a guitar, or a spoon and a knife.

Pretty easy with that cosmos thing I linked. you can literally drag and drop buttons and shit. Pretty neat!
The most time consuming part was cleaning up the keycap prints as that involved removing support material and a brim for each. Soldering was around 4 hours work.

I’m sorry I made my custom keyboard wrong.

Sorry your childhood sucked and you never learned how to talk like a decent human being.

Thank you, if I have produced anything decent it is entirely owed to those who went before and were selfless enough to leave directions.

Knobs are for knobby things. QMK is extremely configurable. Sometimes they are volume, sometimes seeking, sometimes mouse x and y, sometimes scroll wheel, sometimes keyboard arrows, mostly decorative.
MX browns. I am distinctly not obsessed with keyboards. I just like being able to use computers in postures that don’t hurt.

I have improvements I will make on my portable keyboard for lappy, but I’m never going back.
They’re a lot more comfortable.

I don’t have particularly large hands, but they’re not small either. Most peripherals appear to be made for short people, but we grow tall under the searing sun of the land downunder.

- Comment on Australia has had record flu cases this year – and that’s before winter arrives. What’s going on? 4 weeks ago:
I am having trouble understanding what you wrote.
I mean it in the sense, you lose the excuse to take a long lunch getting vaxxed. Not that vaccines are bad. I am not a lunatic, anyone who is even remotely pro social and not significantly unhealthy gets every vaccine they can because being a vector is the ultimate cringe.

Fucking riot over that haha, everyone could use the longer lunch.

It’s 20 bucks, if you haven’t got it and the price is a barrier message me and I’ll cover you lmao.
Free would probably be ideal, but realistically people don’t get it because they’re lazy and don’t think of the flu as serious (which for most people, it isn’t). It’s an education problem, hence the higher rates with oldies.
I’m honestly shocked more jobs don’t pay for people to go get it. 1 hour out of the office and 20 bucks and then you don’t have a whole week of sick leave. Most bean counters are stupid though, and got their job by doing coke with the right people more than anything else.
