I just haven't bothered reading up on what atomic systems are yet. I get the gist of it, just not enought to really understand how it affects my current workflow if I were to switch.

Alright, I think I understood some of those words. Happy to see Sway being worked on. I did a clean install with openSUSEway last week and slowly but surely I'm starting to get it into the state I want from it. Hopefully this will be my final desktop environment.

We probably would not stand to gain much. Our ex-prime minister Solverg is advocating for it because we would have a seat at the table and influence the economy that affects us more. Some economists say it would be beneficial economically for similar reasons, in addition to making the Euro our currency so trading with other European countries would be more stable and predictable, since now you pay less or more depending on how they fluctuate. The Norwegian Crowns (NOK) is not doing so well the past 10 years and there are worries that it will not recover again etc. I like the NOK currency myself. Depending on what business you are in having the crown become worth less could be a good thing.

Yeah, this is frustrating. There already has been a good tool for Windows for a while now called Colour Simulations that I use at work, but I am really wanting for a Linux compatible tool for my home use too.

That's nice. Will check out this one.

We've all had our fun now with watching companies and investors throwing billions on these LLMs but after all that we have something which does not solve billion dollar problems.. They've already scrubbed all the data out there and let's be frank here, the LLMs still suck. It feels like chatting with these LLMs is like overcoming an obstacle, I end up doing web searches myself most of the time anyway. These LLMs can't think or reason, let's stop trying to fake it and start using these models for something useful. Medical is the obvious one. Surveillance and military will probably be where the shift will be to primarily. There will be interesting things with pattern recognition for sound and images, but that's about it.

I switched to Colemak-dh about 2 year ago when I bought a ZSA Moonlander after getting a terrible case of rsi in my left wrist. When I type on other keyboards (which I try to avoid whenever possible) I still use qwerty. Curious thing, I write at about 70 wpm with 99% accuracy with colemak-dh on my Moonlander but I can't pass 10 wps when using colemak-dh on other keyboards, and I have no hope in hell writing with qwerty on the Moonlander at all. The motor memory is completely decoupled between the split keyboard and the non-split keyboard. Which I guess is good, since then when using someone else's keyboard I won't have issues using their keyboard.

I dunno. We like being able to make our own decisions and self-govern. I'd be surprised if the majority voted in favor of joining the EU even now. As the article states, yeah it seems the common citizen want to distance themselves from the US now, but we live a pretty good life already and there are many unknowns regarding what joining the EU will mean for us in the long term. I don't wanna join the EU just to spite the US, however tempting that is right now. Though I believe signaling the middle finger to the US government is important, -- I will do it in other ways in the short term at least. I have started moving all personal products and services out of US companies and into the EU etc.

This is pretty interesting. I've effectively done something similar with my Moonlander where a hold/toggle key on the left side switches the left layout to that of the right side. I do it because I no longer need to take my hand off of the mouse to press a key on the right side anymore, which often would occur when I was using Blender or other productivity tools. However I would much prefer dedicated keys for the keys instead like this. It looks quite handy.

Definitely not a keyboard for me but it is pretty cool. I'm sure a lot of work went into making it, so kudos whoever your are. You did a fine job.
