This is just not true at all. This level of configuration is in no way required for having a good usable system. Things are as hard as they are plus how hard you make them.
If you follow the github link (https://github.com/codybloemhard/eliza) you will find a picture of the matrix! I really like the upside down mods for space bars. It depends a bit on how you angle your hands when you type, but if I put the 'space bar' modifiers in their regular orientation, the edge will dig into my thumb. One thing I would do differently is the position of the screws. Two of the screws are right where my thumb comes down on the board when I press down the space bars. This was slightly irritating and I had to get used to it.
Haha. They are themed after ASCII control characters. 'BS' stands for 'backspace'. Maybe you'll like the 'F_ack' key as well :)
'stash' is a command for the software 'git' which is something programmers use a lot. This GMK set has its modifier keys themed after that software. So the functionality of the keys is not really connected to what the text reads on them. In my case they happen to be shift and space.
People usually use either their left or right thumb for space (some bring a finger down instead of using a thumb). Whatever side you are used to, you would keep space at in your split space layout. For me that is the right side. The other one is shift for me so it does also get a lot of use, but yes the right one gets used more frequently.
Yes, you can bind something to the other spacebar. Shift, a FN key, backspace, enter, a letter, whatever you want. Normally you would have 8 fingers on the alpha cluster (the letters) and use a thumb for space thus using 9 digits (before someone comes after me for calling thumbs fingers lol). By splitting the space you effectively gain the ability to type with all your digits by giving each thumb a separate key. You can also split the space in more than two keys. Personally I quite like two keys per thumb.
Maybe they can pull a fucking Gintama action and just show the story board and have the characters tell the viewers that the animators didn't make the deadline :)
Can't imagine using full spacebar again after tasting split spacebars and 40's. I'm never typing with 9 fingers again.
I like the colours but it's a bit bright after a while for me.
Favorite is tough is choose. But I think Hiiragi Tsukasa has the most moe for me.
Nice. 2GB is just an awkward amount of ram so I feel you. I have 16GB on my desktop but most of the time I use between 2 and 3 GB. The browser being the main customer of course. So 2GB is just a bit short of being comfy. Good luck.
Well I guess they just don't think it is necessary to have a n-ary tree. I use i3 but I rarely have more than 2 windows open per monitor (apart from my floating scratchpad terminal). Usually I have just two windows side by side per workspace. So if I would switch to bspwm I wouldn't really be limited by it. That is also my reason for not switching to a dynamic tiler: I never split my windows enough to where it matters.
