I've been experimenting with @agx 's phosh-osk-keyboard , and hacked together a script to automatically change the shortcuts based on the window titles. #mobilelinux #hymo

workspace_swipe_touch was just merged into #Hyprland; I would say this is almost a competitive #mobilelinux interface, but still not a perfect drop-in for sway. #hymo

My brother wrote a post about how the #HexBoard went from drab to beautiful #MIDI #MIDIController https://shapingthesilence.substack.com/p/hexboard-hardware-and-firmware-updates

I've been working on porting #qmk to the #HexBoard (#midi controller), and it works alright on both hardware revisions. I've finally created a PR for this upstream, so if you want a colorful hexagonal #mechanicalKeyboard, maybe this is for you! https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/22493

Released the firmware for the #HexBoard #MIDI Controller on sourcehut (with automatic builds) https://sr.ht/~earboxer/HexBoard/
This is a real product (you can buy) that is mostly for playing music (but may some day be a #mechanicalKeyboard)

Accidentally left a mess of Legos on my bed and need it to sleep. Too much fun with #LeoCad and my #Lego Lego-Sieve (sieve plate designed in #OpenSCAD)
#shotOnPinePhone #lowLightGrain

My brother told me about the #gridfinity organizers (by internet personality Zack Freedman). Turns out it fits this little toolbox I had lying around. Doing some #openscad designs.

@PINE64 Other (I think ordinary) wear and tear from infrequent opening would be the clip closest to the dip switches starting to wear both frame-side and back plate side. So maybe a third thumbnail slot in that corner as well... at that point might as well put one in each corner.

Anyone else crack their #pinephone back plate like this?
Maybe this is from dropping it and/or opening it too much.
I think the design could be fixed if @PINE64 made a backplate that had thumbnail slots on both sides.

Checking out a cool open source project, I notice the author's email domain is unfamiliar.

Posted an update on gemini, featuring #wvkbd #swipeGuess #suggPicker and other such #SXMO #mobilelinux developments.

Preparing another patch for the swipe-typing keyboard (#wvkbd on #SXMO on the #pinephone)

Any thoughts on the color choice? #postmarketOS @postmarketOS

Swipe-typing with #wvkbd under #SXMO on a #pinephone.
@proycon

New #LEGO build: a plugin for my #olkb #planck keyboard-case to hold a #pinephone (or any smartphone).

I would say it works well, but TBH it needs a counterweight to be a usable lap-top device.

anyone have an idea how #phosh could be modified to fade out the currently running app, so we could see our wallpaper?

#postmarketostweaks background setting gave performance issues, so I'm thinking this approach will be better.
So far, I have

*{background-color:unset}

in gtk.css

I configured #aerc to use emojis for the clock time stamp. In related news: does anybody know how I can go about contributing my code change upstream to #golang’s stdlib?

The word "blessed" is counted as one syllable, but we can make it split it into two.
