A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

Sometimes when you learn how something works, you think, Thanks knowledge, that really helped, everything makes more sense, and other times you look up how wrists turn, and it's like WTF?!

@arisummerland @RickiTarr Every time I hear someone talk about carpal tunnel syndrome I hear my high-school typing teacher's voice: "Wrists UP! <thwack>". Top of forearm horizontal, top of hand horizontal and even with top of forearm, back straight, top of thighs horizontal, feet on chair bar or flat on floor. For a fixed desk, adjust the height of the chair first and the height of the bar second. Adjustable-height desk, feet flat on floor then adjust chair and then desk height.

@arisummerland @RickiTarr This tragic outcome could have been prevented with an #ErgoMechKeyboard lemmy.world/c/ergomechkeyboard

lemmy.worldErgoMechKeyboards - Lemmy.WorldErgonomic, split and other weird keyboards ### Rules #### Keep it ergo [https://gitlab.com/ergomechkeyboards/wiki/-/wikis/Rules#keep-it-ergo] Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn’t exist, what clearer delineation is that!?) i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear² ¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine. ² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid #### No Spam [https://gitlab.com/ergomechkeyboards/wiki/-/wikis/Rules#no-spam] No excessive posting/“shilling” for commercial purposes.
