When you moved to a reduced ergomech, how long did it take for you to adapt to layers?
  • I kept a standard layout keyboard handy for about a week, it took me probably 3 weeks to transition fully. I fall immediately back into bad habits of typing on both sides of the keyboard on standard QWERTY keyboards without the ortholinear split layout, sometimes I even try to reach across the split after a day or two and hit T or Y with my index finger from the wrong hand.

  • I see, for anyone else here is the definition from the HTA

    “highway” includes a common and public highway, street, avenue, parkway, driveway, square, place, bridge, viaduct or trestle, any part of which is intended for or used by the general public for the passage of vehicles and includes the area between the lateral property lines thereof; (“voie publique”)

  • Looking for a portable ortholinear
  • Ergodox EZ is fantastic, I've got zealpc zilents installed in mine for silent tactile. Expensive switches, but I've been transplanting them between new keyboards. I got the EZ from a friend when he wanted to go to a moonlander.

  • Firefox rolls out Total Cookie Protection by default to all desktop users worldwide | It is Firefox’s strongest privacy protection to date, confining cookies to the site where they were created
  • I my experience it generally breaks it. Leveraging cookies on the auth domain is fine, but once you are redirected to another domain, that application needs to take the access and refresh tokens and manage reauthentication as a background process. Simply don't store those things as cookies though.

  • The problem isn't curing greed, it is using an economic and governmental system that enables the people to be intentional about production and consumption. Capitalism isn't it, it explicitly relies on markets which is an opaque tool which makes it difficult to live intentionally. Markets tell you to just "trust" that the price reflects the impact of that product or commodity.

  • Before your change to Linux
  • XP when I started going main on Linux. Windows 7 was the last version I had installed for games on a dual boot. Linux was always just more fun. I always felt like it was my computer and I wasn't constantly fighting the computer to make it work for me. Going to a tiling window manager was the point of no return though, my workflow changed so much that my productivity outside a tiling window manager plummeted.

  • Can iron fertilization of the oceans help solve the climate crisis? (commentary)
  • Please don't buy into geoengineering. We need to repair our relationship to nature through rewilding. We should be changing the way we live, giving up large monoculture crop that goes toward animal husbandry and rewilding the planet to sequester carbon emissions. We are in this situation because our ancestors changed the land and the wildlife so radically in our attempts to industrialize. We overfished, killed whales, ran large predators into extinction, removed most old growth forest among many other things. Humans have tried geoengineering before, we dam rivers, flood planes, dig canals, level the earth and introduce species where they are not native, among large chemical, mineral, metal and other injections to the ground, sky and water. The climate models see carbon sequestration, SRM and geoengineering as attractive options because it lets us continue business as usual. We do need rapid change, of the way we live and with our relationship with the earth.

  • Can iron fertilization of the oceans help solve the climate crisis? (commentary)
  • You are correct this is called geoengineering and it is born of the hubris of humans thinking they should control the planet like a machine or something. The person you replied to I believe is appealing to other people who think Promethean action is irresponsible and instead we need to modify our relationship with the environment, by not continuing down the path we are on.

  • we love open source!!1!
  • It is a bot that these communities on discord can invite to specific channels that will index the discussion to provide a search engine interface. Ideally search engines could leverage the answeroverflow API to help people get access to the technical discussion that now happens in discord instead of forums or mailinglists which do come up in search engine results.

  • Honesty, I'm OK with slowing down and consuming less if it is night and the wind isn't blowing. Lets just use that time for rest, instead of being in hyper production mode all the time.

  • Tensions grow as China ramps up global mining for green tech
  • People are already dying. Our existing system which is built on exploitation causes countless people to be sacrificed to support the way we live right now. How many people are you willing to sacrifice with poisoned waterways and medical conditions caused by unsafe working conditions, as mentioned in the article?
