So, playing around with this new split keyboard ( https://eu.perixx.com/products/periboard-624?variant=44985322471689 ), and I'm loving it so far.
There was a problem with the connection between the keyboard and the computer cutting out - it turns out that it wasn't getting a good enough signal plugged into the back of my tower, so there were all manner of un-commanded inputs, or sometimes none, but moving the dongle to the front solved this.
Now, any garbage is caused my by futile attempts at trying to type.
So, now I'm trying out various ways of raising it.
Having the whole thing flat doesn't work for me, I find the best results involve having a slight upwards tilt from front to back.
A larger tilt uppppppwards just feels silly, so i'm not doing that.
So, I've tried a slight upward tilt towards the middle - that is my 2nd favourite position, trying a slightly higher tilt as I write this, and ... no, not feeling it.
I can do it, but the keys on the periphery just fall too far away.
There are 2 higher tilt angles, and that is just... wrong.
A vertical mouse makes some kind of sense, but a vertical keyboard - not so much.
But yeah, I'm loving it.
I'm really glad I've been re-training myself in hopw to type - I used to cover about 3/4 of the keyboard with my right hand, now it is precisely 50/50, and I can now use the left shift key with the keys in the middle, something that I couldn't do a month ago.
I know some people will be wondering why I went for this instead of a more expensive model, and the reason is simple - I wanted to try a spl it out without spending far more than I can afford, now I know I like it, and so I might be able to justify the cost in around 18 months.
But for now, this is enough for me.
Right, now to put it back to a lower tilt...

Figuring out what makes a *good* stream clip is honestly the thing I struggle with most in #ContentCreation.

My method is mainly, feel a vibe i want to evoke when rewatching broadcasts and clip that... maybe add some embellishments #idontknowwhatimdoing

About a year ago I painted up #ReaperMinis Baba Yaga's hut, but only the hut. I had plans on how I wanted to do the legs and the base they would go on.

I finally got to it, and I am deep in the "trust the process" stage of basing, terrified that it's going to look like crap.

Not pictured are the dozen mushrooms or the 4 skulls that I may or may not add to the base still.

What Happens If You Press All the Buttons at Perth Observatory?

I visited Perth Observatory during the day (because apparently stars aren’t required for an existential crisis) — and ended up getting a personal tour from Paul Wadham, the actual Operations Manager. Legend.

He showed me antique telescopes, answered my weird space questions with alarming patience, and introduced me to an atomic clock that I may or may not now be emotionally dependent on.

No stars. Just me, Paul, and the unstoppable march of time. ⏱️🔭🌞
