Das sind die Regeln, alright then. Cool

Glad it hasn't affected you (yet).

As if there's a book called How To Sleepwalk Into Fascism and half of us stopped reading before the chapter on The Consequences.

1 min old comment and still underrated

I'mmmmm not sure if this is relevant, but there's a distinction between leaders and... Managers/facilitators etc. Leaders are never assigned or appointed as leaders. Leaders are natural and defined by the fact that people follow them.

Everyone can be a leader in different ways and on different topics, in different situations.

This is often confused with managers (and synonyms) who are appointed, and somehow supposed to always be the decision maker in... Many things.

Someone to keep the oversight and ensure orchestration like an orchestra conductor is important like that.

Leaders don't need to be good managers. Leaders don't need to be managers, though at times they are. Leaders don't need to be anything, they already do leader things by definition, by the fact that they've changed people's resolve/opinion etc.

But leaders are natural. It's so, so, so important that people learn that they don't always have to be a leader in everything, and on the flip side, can naturally rise to the occasion given their knowledge, passion, and relevant circumstances.

Makes things way more fluid, less forced, equal. And plays to everyone's strengths in that regard.

Sorry, I don't have a 1 liner for that. Maybe someone else does.

 

Hey, thought I'd try our collective knowledge :)

I'm using layers as in this post, i.e.:

but when I hold the MO(1) button, the "a" button doesn't do anything.. qwesdzxcv just fine, but not the "a"... while that button works just as intended on layer 0.

What could this be?

I'm using Vial for the keymap config, if that helps. Thanks for your thoughts!

Fighting against the man is always anti authoritarian, and that's a big part with them, too, obviously. I honestly think if you set the bar at a union that wants to abolish capitalism (add in the blanks what that means), then you'll not be pressuring & negotiating with the bosses, but couping. Or something like that. That's a different game, isn't it?

Anarchism != not being organized, and strategising, learning how to talk to coworkers to organize and mobilize them, can be applied in any context, be it a more hierarchical or a flat one, I'd say. They mostly focus on closed structures rather than elected groups (i.e. groups people just tend to be a part of, like an apartment building or employees to the same company vs rallying people for an anti-racism protest).

As for that they don't organize any basic ones soon, just gives you more time to get people together or so, time flies (though that doesn't help if you really need to get started asap). It's worldwide & hugely inspirational and think it's valuable for more & less mature groups alike.

Hope that helps!

https://organizing4power.org/ find 10+ comrades and sign up for a course, that'll help a ton. Though their courses are more about how to strategize and actually talk to people to get to winning actions.

It can be a good way to bring focus to a group of people (or to have a clear starting point for a group of people that's "just learning" and not immediately putting themselves at risk). Just walk up to people you trust and offer to take the course together, and tell them to find others who might be interested, and take it from there.

Oh yeahhhh...I updated the screenshots, now I have a button in layer 1 to make the change to layer 1 permanent. the options are endless!

Zero times. My dad actually has a bit of a trauma from his parents constantly entering his room unprompted, so they told me when I was already an adult, so they made a point out of respecting my personal space.

[–] feverin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Wayyyy better :-D

And I see! Yeah I've definitely already jammed keys realizing I'm on the wrong layer, but I need a permanent switch to the gaming one. But I'll try the switch on hold til release with an extra a hold to switch for just the gaming layer, I like that idea more. Good one!

[–] feverin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ah yes, that's what I meant, but putting heavily used modifiers like shift, Ctrl, alt under those fingers and mirroring the setup between left and right hand, trying to make the most out of those 8 keys where you don't need to move your fingers for.

[–] feverin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (5 children)

Ok, you inspired me :)

I moved the layer switcher to the left hand, and moved backspace to my thumb, so I don't strain my pinky so much.

I moved the arrows to right under my right hand...

And I added a num pad, also right under my right hand, where I'd expect it.

EDIT: updated the screenshots

[–] feverin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Oh, that's a nifty way to think about it, modify with one hand and map it to a situation as if the other hand was where you'd have it, e.g. with the arrow keys!

Have you tried home row mods? In theory, it sounds good...

[–] feverin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago (11 children)

It does! For using so many different layers, don't you feel it's slower to change layers and back than to move your hand if you had a bigger keyboard? Or am I missing the point. I'm quite new to this.

Your layout is dazzling. How do you remember all of this... !

Share your keymap config (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

I'm not finding any place where people share their keymap config (if that's the right way to refer to how you've configured which key has which actions bound to it), so here goes mine - and I hope to have feedback and to be inspired by yours, as well!


From some awesome inspiration, I updated the setup :-) thanks!

I moved the layer switcher to the left hand, and moved backspace to my thumb, so I don't strain my pinky so much.

I moved the arrows to right under my right hand... and added a button to make the switch to this gamer layer permanent. So basically, to go from layer 0 to layer 1 permanently, hold left thumb button, tap right thumb button. Tap left thumb button to switch back to layer 0.

And I added a num pad, also right under my right hand, where I'd expect it.


original: I just got my first mech keyboard with fewer keys than a 'regular' keyboard, and set it up this way:

with the TG(1) switching to layer 2 for gaming/some extra symbols:

and the home row is modded to GASC like in https://precondition.github.io/home-row-mods#how-to-use-home-row-mods with 160ms tapping term.

I am mostly struggling to get used to this way of typing and I still spend a lot of time on finding symbols, or correcting extra or missed keystrokes. But, I'll try to update this when I have more experience. Critique away!
