The Absurdity of the Return-to-Office Movement
  • I work from home and still prefer living in the city center, despite being more expensive. Not due to the museums but due to the closeness to restaurants, pubs and clubs. How am I supposed to go back home if I am drunk and I cannot drive. The city center is for the people not for office buildings.

  • The Verge Takes on Self-Hosting for the Masses
  • I really hope so, it should be taught, because for me it was a slow learning process. First I started using Obsidian, and moving all my notes from Evernote, Notion, and others manually. After that I moved to Logseq, which is like Obsidian but open-source. And the last step was using an open-source syncing tool (Syncthing) to have my notes synced locally in all devices. And now I have been 2 years self-hosting my notes in a really easy way.

  • My ortholinear 40%

    Hi! It is my first post in this community in Lemmy. I just wanted to show my ortholinear KB. It is a KpRepublic BM40 (plank-like) with Cherry Brown switches.

    I built it 8 months ago and I love it, for every day work and for working elsewhere beacause it is very easy to carry in my backpack.

    I hope you like it.

    Aurora Corne low profile split keyboard wireless

    Hi! I am excited to share my new build in this new community in Lemmy.

    It is an Aurora Corne Low Profile keyboard. I just wanted to do a wireless split keyboard as thin as possible.

    I bought all the pieces in splitkb.com:

    • Aurora Corne PCB (comes with diodes and choc hotswap sockets to be soldered)
    • 2 Nice!nano v2 USB-C controllers
    • 2 batteries 301230 3.7V 110mAh
    • Kaihl Choc low profile Orange switches.
    • Choc keycaps
    • Carbon fiber plate
    • Case (I have not bought any, I've just made a wooden panel, cutting it ad hoc), but I may buy one in the future or 3D print one, let me know what you think about it.

    About the building process, I can say that I was afraid of soldering, but it was fun and easier than expected. I struggled a little more with the firmware configuration, because I was used to QMK but the nice!nano controller uses ZMK so it was a little different.

    After configuring my Colemak layout and my layers on the firmware, the flashing process is pretty strait forward. Also the bluetooth connection integrated in the nice!nano was connected easily to my PC.

    However, after 1 month of use, I have started feeling some issues in the left part of the keyboard, mainly with modifiers, such as Ctrl, Shift, Alt, and some letters. When I keep them pressed they are not recognized and I have to repress them. I don't think it is a firmware issue, because I have tried different configurations in ZMK and now all of them fail with the same keys, independently of whatever character I map on those keys. I am thinking that it maybe due to some diode that may be missoldered or some pin in the controller, because the first days it worked fine. And I have tested the same configuration as those days, and now I am getting these issues.

    Any suggestion?

    !
