Considering building a new keyboard (again). I've had my eyes on a Ferris Sweep for a while now, but 34 keys is a bit sparse.

@0gust1 100% agree. I'm a big fan and have this queued up for when I start "work" today. Thanks for posting!
Quick messy post in my blog about how "software engineering" (in a corporate setting) has involved less and less coding these days.
Finally heard enough chatter about 'The Amazing Digital Circus' to convince me to check it out.
Pretty entertaining and an interesting study in mental health, identity, and community. Would recommend.
Avril 14th has been one of my practice songs as I learn the piano. I had hoped to get it down before today, but it's still a bit rough. Maybe next year...I don't mind listening to it more 😊
It's wild to me that military contractors and manufacturers can advertise in public.
Because a lot of politicians and generals live/work in my city, it's not unusual to see ads for missile delivery systems on the side of busses or ads for fighter jets while on the train.

@oppen@merveilles.town I've been gradually dropping keys while still using qwerty (currently on 42, about to drop to 34) but this is next level.
I assume (if this isn't a joke and it's not something like a midi controller) that this is a steno board?
As a reminder: don't trust anything on the Internet today (4/1).
