glove80 assembled! got the switches-not-soldered option and replaced the switches and soldered all of them. it works!

we also had to improvise and use some nanotape to protect the fcc cables from nearby sharp solder joints/pins but !! it is okay! it works (: and it should be fine for now. hopefully we'll still have the will to open it back up to properly cut them when we have a good tool for that

@x4nw i'd be content paying up to like 18.3 USD (// 70 ILS) for one that actually Lasts 7-10 years or somethin but yea
i dont see it on my [local digikey](digikey.co.il/en) tho so i guess i'll settle for a bunch of the aliexpress ones :pp

ty anyway tho! fyi i actually thought 'plier' was its own thing until Today when i read it in some manual that felt authoritative

@x4nw hello! do you have smol plier recs? cheap, decent, can cut 0.8mil ends off sharp solder joints

i barely solder anymore but i just built something where i need it to not scratch a flex cable

@th how's the remarkable? the price makes me shy away from it every time. also i barely handwrite because of some joint issues.

but the form factor is really appealing nonetheless,,

@skye waiting patiently to find out if you plan to tell :3

if ice, don't use hands for a few hours. heat for harm reduction if ur gonna use hands anyway.

talon, if you must, but it gon be slow as heck at first

general body exercise seems to help us w recovery times after a flareup. walk , run, etc

theres like, key density, typing HugeBigWordsALot thing = new HugeBigWordsALot() like java and stuff like your kb binds where it's just quick chords. the former is way worse and takes longer to meow back with (anecdotally)

rest rest rest rest
if you haven't gone past this already; it is NOT fun to plan your week ahead based on how much typing you can afford in a day. there is like, near zero shit that matters more than that .

stay safe

@vv eats spoons. nomnomnonnomnom i can still do basically everything but ahaha 5x spoons,, yea

question in the format of a cohost/tumblr ask; apocalypse, elilla&'s roots?, long, reads kinda like a trauma dump but i get to the question eventually after i feel i've established the context. Achtung! may increase doom levels! 

@elilla :blobcat:

hello! you often talk about climate apocalypse and jp,br culture that we haven't been exposed to much, and certainly not as directly.,

i liked your mom's quote you posted but i don't think it works in e.g. my position, i'm 18-very-soon and still w my parents, one of whom sheltered me from the local culture for a while (there's more here…) and it feels pretty representative of surveillance capitalism; we have so many complicit machines that help capitalism continue to run that i don't think we'll have a power restructuring unless it turns out to be a very quick big collapse.

so, with all of that authoritarianism painted, i'd like to now take you to the typical "transfem who's still figuring her shit out" who is probably very dependent on fragile internet infra, perhaps public transport and maybe is socially traumatized (like us)

how does that work out for her? personally i'm gonna be Fine it's been a while and i'm healing from the worst bits... but what about the new girl; what do you see in her future?

@skye aria lfav's [*isomorph.*](lfav.bandcamp.com/album/isomor) is a meow ! i recommend listening in the track order & focusing on every track as it plays,

i think this music is good . i cant find it on the internet anymore . have it .
