Yep, inverse left-hand row stagger counts. Katana60 and µTron style.

Yeah, I like it for the most part but really am not a fan of the swipe gestures.

have you considered just building a corne, snapping off the 6th column (as most corne PCBs allow) and only soldering 2 of keys in the thumb cluster?

(it's 34, btw, the sweep has 34 keys)

It's not really a bug, per say. 429 is the HTTP statuscode for "Too Many Requests", i.e. The API is not serving the request due to it hitting the rate limit (for the free tier in this instance). RIF is accurately displaying the status it's getting from the reddit API.

that's a good question. if one is willing to completely relearn a different input method then the sweet spot is probably stenotype which is around 24 keys and professionals boast 200-300 wpm speeds. But that is impractically hard to learn if you really don't need to type that fast. I used to be able to get 20wpm typing on this keyboard, and i've seen someone hit 60 (by incorporating the supported whole word chords), so it's more usable than you might think. if you ask Ben Vallack, then 16 keys is pretty optimal. My sweetspot has been 34 with the Sweep personally.

keeb.io have a number of different fully split but regular layout keyboards in various sizes. if you're lucky enough to live nearby (North Carolina, USA), you could even visit their store to try things out. Otherwise, maybe you may be able to find someone with something like an Ultimate Hacking Keyboard (UHK) that you could try. something fully split is great because you can position the halves at whatever position and angle you like, even adjusting throughout the day. You know what they say, the best posture is the next posture.

you can actually type the full english alphabet with it (and more!). like this entire comment, for example!!!

It's custom code in QMK, Germ (of gboards) made the base engine and I worked on a lot of issues to get it into a usable state, and implemented features like the left/right chords based on the side the first key pressed of the chord is on, etc. Was a fun project. Originally written for the Ginny but ported to this (niop).

[–] obosob@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yep, it's asetniop. It's got everything besides the "partials" feature since that's, a, really hard to understand how to implement; and, b, the dictionary for it would too large to fit on an atmega anyway.

Valid criticism, i have a few but never finished a build. I bunny-hopped the corne and now it just doesn't have enough stagger for me, the main reason i've got builds of it in the pipeline is just because it feels wrong not to have at least one.

It's a reference to the Sandwich Alignment Chart, "a burrito is a sandwich"

The chaotics aren't actually ergo because the rules of what counts as ergo have broken down, that's the joke.

See this table for the descriptions.
