The chair’s cover has a zipper underneath, and it just occurred to me I could stick magnets in the arms, under the fabric, so my keyboard can attach to the chair. 🎉 (media.artemis.camp)

The chair’s cover has a zipper underneath, and it just occurred to me I could stick magnets in the arms, under the fabric, so my keyboard can attach to the chair. 🎉

And with the AR glasses I can just recline and putter away on the three virtual monitors on my ceiling. 😎

What are the glasses you like?

[-] ImInPhx 6 points 1 year ago

I was curious about what the glasses are too. XReal Air is closest looking match I could find.

[-] rivalary@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

Scrolling through that site, it says, "large elastic range of the shaft". Nice, though I have no idea what they're talking about.

You know....

[-] g0g0gadget@artemis.camp 4 points 1 year ago

Yep, those ones!

Has science gone too far?

Having grown up with floppy disks, magnets still make me nervous

My keyboard was made to be used this way! https://www.zsa.io/voyager/

I have a trackpad on my lap desk, though, and for that I used Velcro, because yep.

That's fuckling cool

[-] jadedwench@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

You are a genius. I have a Love Sac couch and I could do this all over. I will have to think about how this could be used. Thank you for the great idea!

[-] Newtra@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

That's genius! You must feel so relaxed while using that. What spilt keyboard is it? What do you do for mouse emulation?

[-] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

https://www.zsa.io/voyager/

I believe that is the one they have.

[-] g0g0gadget@artemis.camp 5 points 1 year ago

Yep! And for mouse control I mostly use the keyboard itself, or a trackpad on a lap desk. https://www.lauralangdon.io/blog/

What work are you doing? How's the res?

[-] robotdna@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

How is the eye fatigue? With VR I get sorta sick

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

You're living my dream! That is exactly how I want to work.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

What are those amazing glasses?

[-] g0g0gadget@artemis.camp 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They're the NReal Air.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Awesome! Thanks for the name. Are they as cool as they look? Do they actually work well? Is the picture quality good?

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid
