  • What's the lore behind this pic?

  • Your grandkids are going to have a blast! :D

  • I think you misunderstood but that's understandable. This is how you read it:

    tidder fo sedis owt ehT

  • Sorry for violating you ig.

  • You're overthinking it.

  • I love art so it's very much for me. I can see how it wouldn't seem attractive to people that aren't into that type of stuff though.

  • Yea, doing all the research was a grind. I expected it to be a simple purchase because I thought macropads weren't that niche but I was proven very wrong on that. xD

  • The first three have one too little horizontal row for a comfortable hand position. The last one is something I contemplated but with knobs instead and I failed to find something like that. I also get an impression that it would be uncomfortable to constantly move my hand between two keyboards but maybe I'm wrong as I never had two small keyboards to use. When hunting in the past I also read that a lot of this stuff has some shitty config apps and/or quality problems. I gave some thought making an ideal macropad myself but I'm too broke for an expensive hobby like that. I'm very happy with the macropad I managed to get because it was really hard to find something that would fit what I was looking for. It's my first macropad ever and my first mechanical keeb as well so I was very lucky to settle on something good despite my lack of knowledge on this stuff. The settings app, onboard memory, and layers with display are also very satisfactory. It feels so good to use that the macropad I sent above feels like the only thing that would fully satisfy my more advanced needs and I would be willing to buy it if I could afford it. The size is perfect as well, it has a lot of buttons and enough knobs while not taking up too much space to leave a lot of room on my desk for the drawing tablet.

    Edit: Us constantly making edits makes it a bit confusing. I'm not sure if the midi thing was there when I started writing the message or if it was added during that time. lol

    Anyway, I contemplated a midi board for knobs but midi boards have limited turn radius +that would require finding some special software to actually use it. Additionally there wouldn't be onboard memory which I'm enjoying a lot. Nothing will beat VIA/QMK programmable purpose specific keyboard.

  • I already did so when looking for a macropad but didn't find anything that would fit my criteria. Macropads with a bigger amount of knobs are stupidly hard to find which is something I didn't expect when looking for one to buy.

    Edit: Oh right, I just remembered that there was a bigger option that was out of stock and waaaaay out of my price range:

    That's 145 USD +shipping. It's not something I can afford for a small keyboard. I think it may come without caps as well based on the pic included. lmao

  • I'm not a programmer but I want to share my experiences anyway. >:3

    I have DOIO KB16 because I really needed something to allow me for scrolling and usage of shortcuts while using the drawing tablet. It has 4 layers and onboard memory so I can take it to a new pc and have all the same functionality. I disconnected my mouse and put it on a shelf due to wrist pain in favor of a game controller or drawing tablet + macropad combo for interacting with my pc. I ended up mostly using the macropad as a mouse/keyboard with shortcuts for manipulating webpages and so on. My favourite part about it is that it has 3 whooping knobs which I really wanted to have as many of as I could. By looking at the sellers discord support channel I was really lucky to actually have the macropad delivered at all because it's some chinese seller with lacking support. Here's the pic of it:

    Edit: The post asked about how I feel about the size. My opinion is that I wish it had 1 (ideally 2) more vertical sets of keys because that would allow me to use my thumb for button pressing too. But overall I'm happy and I think it's my only real problem with it.

  • Even using xitter?

  • I don't think I've ever seen any other post with 2000 downvotes and -1000 overall score. Those numbers are really big. But at the same time LW has way too many users and communities on them so I can understand them not wanting to play legal games on top of that regardless of factuality. It's a free platform and changing instances is easy (as long you don't have communities to move).

  • That was an unexpectedly quick response. It was speed.

  • I have a vague feeling of seeing a movie like that years ago. What was the title?

  • How did moving out change your lifestyle? And how in your eyes does it compare to people who always had power?

  • My script had batch processing of the data with the batch sizes being set to 200. With that the result of communities for this month I was getting was 125. After setting the batch size to 1 making it process each community separately it changed to 313 so who knows if there are any other problems with the script. :p

  • My script may or may not have picked up the data correctly. I thought I had it working but during writing down the data I noticed that the new 196 blahaj community wasn't showing up in communities from this month and was categorised as 2023.06. After tinkering with the script a bit and rerunning the script it's now correctly categorised as from this month but who knows if there are any other errors. And due to writing this down manually I could have made some mistakes myself too. :p
