New setup, happy lower back (hopefully)

@mairacanal that looks like a glove80!

@craftyguy and indeed, it's a Glove80 :)

@mairacanal hellllo tenting! I'm not a doctor (I've been legally told to say this after I tried to sell @lkundrak witch doctor supplies to summon Rhesus the ape lord, sigh), but I found my unacceptably bougie keyboard has made a big difference to RSI, as has my even less acceptable mouse.

Welcome to the world of normie-shock keyboard hipsterism! Your tendons will thank you for it

@ljs @mairacanal not a doctor either, but can do a frontal lobotomy if neccessary

@lkundrak @mairacanal oh hail rhesus and oppose opposable thumbs! (also a good way of avoiding RSI) 🍷

@ljs @lkundrak Man, I want a display that big 🤩

I have two Ultrawide displays at my other house and I really miss them.

@mairacanal @lkundrak they are godly I swear it is so nice to have...

I may have spent a wee tiny little bit too much on that though.

Definitely not something I keep doing all the time or anything

@ljs @lkundrak I mean, you just sold the only healthy kidney you had, but it's fine.

@mairacanal @lkundrak yeah kidneys are bullshit anyway, what are they even for stupid things

@lkundrak @ljs @mairacanal

You'll never know when you will need it

(Don't ask me why this is in my eBay wishlist)

@epilys @ljs @mairacanal the aliexpress ones also mostly work

@lkundrak @epilys @mairacanal you're still typing so yeah 'mostly'

@ljs @lkundrak Who needs a kidney when you have a big super huge Ultrawide Monitor?

@mairacanal @lkundrak yes hahaha yes yes yes!

Mmmmm let the light wash over you!

LET THE ALIEN BITE YOUR FACE OFF FROM ALL ANGLES!!

🍷

@ljs are you doing some java as a side gig? That monitor is perfect for their error messages 😅

@mairacanal nice! How do you like it? I love mine!

@xexaxo
yes @ljs is implementing java vm in kernel, handling java error messages using printk() was requirement from oracle :)

@craftyguy It's really comfortable after you get used to it. In the beginning, I thought it was quite big for my baby hands, but I got used to it. Now, I can't see myself with a non-ortholinear keyboard.

@mairacanal ya I know what you mean, this is my 3rd ortho but I remember the first time I basically had to relearn how to type for a few days 😅

Not sure if you've looked into trackballs, but they also helped my wrists/posture. I have a "classic #ploopy" trackball that I put right between the two keyboard halves and it's a great setup for me!

@craftyguy I really had to relearn typing haha, I thought that I was really stupid 😂

I did AgileFingers exercise for a month to reach a solid 85-90 WPM.

About mouses, I have a Logitech MX Master 3S that helped me to reduce a pain that I had in my thumb.
