I figured out a mental trick after 2 days. It's hard to explain in words, but here goes...
In my brain, I created a second typing profile where in my minds-eye, I imagine the ortholinear keys while on my new keyboard. When I go back to my old keyboard, I try to keep my brain aware that it's the old layout. I have a Logitech G13, which is an ortholinear style gaming pad, so I think my brain was already wired for ortholinear finger movements and it was already natural for my brain to distinguish between the two.
Now, the "weirdest" keys for me to type on the old keyboard are C, B, Y. I realize how super annoying it is having to stretch my fingers out for some keys and that's why I'm certain that I'm going to stick with ortholinear in the long run.
I just received my 4x12 keyboard 4 days ago! While there has been a steep learning curve and I took a huge hit on my typing speed, I really enjoy using it. I was a bit hesitant to spend much $$$ on something I wasn't sure about, so I decided that if I didn't like it that I could just use it as a macropad or use it in place of my dying Logitech G13 gaming pad. So far, I've been carrying it between work and home and using it for everything. If all goes well, this will be my main and only keyboard.
It's a CSTC40 that I bought from aliexpress. Unfortunately, it looks like they stopped selling it after I received mine (lucky me!). This unit seems to get shit on by mechanical keyboard enthusiasts, but I love it because it was cheap ($70CDN shipped) and didn't require soldering. I happened to have a set of keycaps that I've made work for this keyboard. I don't really look down when I'm typing, so I don't really care that some of the legends don't make sense.
I just want to say how happy I am that good sounding audio equipment and large screen TVs are relatively cheap. With a bit of research and tinkering, one can have a nice A/V setup for not much $$$. Of note, I am very impressed with the audio quality of Class D amplifiers nowadays. I was conditioned to believe that Class D would always be inferior until I tried it myself.
A TV that is not connected to the internet is effectively just a large monitor.
I understand that some TVs lock functionality and coerce you into connecting it to the network, but most of them function well as monitors. I know it's tempting to make use of the "smart" features since it's included, but if you care about privacy, it's better to keep it off the internet.

That happened in the previous loop. This time-traveller ruined his life with hookers and blow, so instead of giving his younger self quick riches, he gave solid financial advice instead.
Would you mind telling us more about your exotic industrial camera and how you managed to salvage it? I love learning more about topics like this.
If your back is constantly itchy, it's possible that you could benefit from exfoliating your skin. I use these salux cloths for my back and all over when I shower. My back scratching tool is now collecting dust and also, my keratosis pilaris issues went away after about a year.
While you may trust implicitly, many have witnessed and experienced enough injustice to understand how the world works.
I never knew about apt-file! Thanks!
- Add myself to the sudoers group:
sudo usermod -a -G sudo myusername
- Updated my sources list to include
main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
- Enable multi-arch (for Steam):
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
I use KDE and something that annoys me is that file explorers launch files on single click, so I always have to change that to double click in System Settings.
I just wanted to chime in to say that I used clonezilla today to move my 250G ssd to 1TB. It was easy and fast. I used ventoy (a usb iso loader) to load stable clonzilla live. I'll only mention the major options, which were disk-to-disk, expert mode, and then -k1 (to resize the partition accordingly.

I now constantly test myself to see if I'm overlooking the truth. Refusal to admit reality or refusal to acknowledge an unpleasant truth can ultimately hold you back.

As a longtime Debian user, Steam can work really well on Debian, but rarely there are some things that fall between the cracks when some packages get updated. There's also a bit of latest-and-greatest envy because Debian (even testing) is a little bit behind. If you're only using your computer for Steam, look elsewhere. If you want a mostly reliable desktop computer and are okay with occasional hiccups, Debian is pretty awesome. Honestly, any computer you use will run into some issues eventually. If you get familiar with the Debian way of doing things, you're gonna have a good time!
