First things I disabled when my company put that mandatory W11 installation on my desk. Being fair to our IT, they already went out of their way to disenshittify Windows. Their background debloat scripts and configs must be gigantic.

Confocal still feels kinda like magic to me, even tho I know how it works

Windows updates are large because they’re built to work everywhere, on every configuration, for every enterprise scenario.

I mean, according to the rule of phamaceutics, the equivalent costs fo a non-medical ultrasound would be about 10-fold cheaper. So if you don’t care about eventual side effects, you could have an absolute bargain

Wondering if it’s properly airgapped or if someone cut a corner and left an onboard wireless chip in place

ah, more innocent times

Kind of relevant xkcd what if video

The fuck is that? Could be a very nice medieval torture device. Or a beautiful mechanical clock.

Seriously, please let that sink in! I desperately need my plumber to fix that sink once and for all

…would you, if it was deliciously caramelised afterwards? 👉👈

Glad I could help! for bigrams like ou I feel it natural, when the second letter can be started from the point where the swipe gesture from the first letter ended.

In that case, I attached you a screenshot of my personal layout. I tried optimizing for

• roughly qwertz positions to easen learning curve
• most common german monograms, bigrams and some trigrams (confer how you’d input “sch” with a very quick diagonal tap tap swipe gesture with only one change in one dimension, staying on one axis)
• keeping ergonomics in mind, optimized for right hand use and positioning more common letters with more easy to execute gestures, and having as few out of bounds gestures as possible
• not ignoring english completely

I really should update my thumb key

I tried the layouts of thumbkey, it didn’t click, so I made a private fork that gives you roughly the same positions as on a qwerty (in my case localised german qwerty with umlauts). I’m slower than on normal keyboards, but that doesn’t matter, as the display of my phone is absurdly small (3 inch unihertz jelly star).

my “mod” was built years ago, and since then lots of things have changed in the thumb key codebase. I should really update and redo my keyboard layout

We have a persian supermarket right next to us, and I will certainly follow that tip of eating 30-40 olives. The jars there have abnormal sizes, and the quality is exceptional, so slightly more than 30-40 olives may get eaten that night.
