ArkScript lang developer, split keyboard fanatic

  • Apparently I collect keyboards (specifically split ones: you have 17-20 keys for each hands), I just love building them it feels like playing with Lego but you get a working tool after you're done! And you can program it however you like too, for "I need to find the perfect setup" people like me, this is the cherry on top.

    I also have a few manga and a growing collection of Lord of the Rings related books, I just think this is really neat.

  • Depends on if you are willing to assemble the keyboard yourself or want something consumer ready I guess

  • That's up to everyone on here to participate in the development of the product!

    Alas I don't think this will happen, people prefer when stuff is done without doing it themselves, because then you need to take responsibilities (myself included)

  • I asked my crystal ball and it said the next blue moon (I'm not a programmer I don't understand shit)

  • I don't think that has been implemented yet.

  • That could be because of duckduckgo anti tracking system running 24/7 on my phone haha

  • It doesn't load for me, and according to the way back machine (it couldn't save the readme somehow?) it redirects to a framagit repo that wants me to create an account.

  • (⁀ᗢ⁀)

  • Well that's a bit of both: I need to be able to get on my server from work (with my phone... Yeah not great but that works), because I often break stuff haha ; also a nice thing to have when I'm on the bus and want to add more music or movies to listen to during the travel!

    Are there ISPs that don't provide dynamic IPs? I had to setup a script and get some API keys for different services to ensure the IP is properly updated on my DNS servers.

    Speaking of brutality, I considered doing the same but then I would have banned myself from testing the APIs of my services 🤧

  • No, this doesn't remove the need to stay up to date.

    However, it works on my server and was very easy to setup: a few ufw rules so that port 22 is blocked everywhere, allowed only on the VPN IP range and my local network range. Nmapping from outside does not show port 22 accessible, and indeed you can't SSH to it without the VPN.

    Security is quite tough to get right eh? I tried my best to harden everything opening ports on my server, having a fail2ban, VPN for maintenance, webserver to expose some personal services...

  • One could setup a VPN and expose the SSH port to the VPN network only. It think tailscale operates this way?

  • Damn, I had to watch the video to compare with the review (I'm very skeptical of anything AI), and this is right on point

  • Because it's opensource too. Works very well, vault is password protected and AES encrypted. Easy to configure, very lightweight.

  • I'll bite the bullet: I'm making my own scripting language for fun, as a learning experience and a tool for my own projects. If it can help others, great! But that's not my main goal.

    In nearly 5 years working on it, I've made at most 400$ from donations and grants. Open source isn't a viable source of income, no matter what ; and programming language dev is even less profitable.

  • I'm using Read You, a material design RSS reader for Android (I get it through Obtainium, it's a pretty rad app too!)

  • That's because of scalpers, they aren't produced anymore alas. Someone on the Reddit mentioned wanting to make an alternative to that scroll wheel but I don't know if it went farther than just designs maybe.

  • This is really cool! You could use it to display information about layers and when touched it transforms into a touchpad

  • All I see is another wannabe generic purpose and C++ (and Rust? Already?) replacement. I'm not saying they shouldn't try, but a lot have already and it's pretty tough. C alternatives like Zig and Nim don't seem to have taken off, Vala either.

  • I use them too! My phone usually fast charge at 30W, but with the magnetic cable it is capped at 5W (thanks God). I've seen drastic improvement in term of battery life because it charges slower and do not stress the battery as much as at 30W
