Ok, so the pre-built AAKBD with Vial Configurability firmware is now available on GitHub.

The GitHub page has details and the AAKBD Vial README has even more, but TL;DR:

Almost all Vial/QMK features supported, you should not notice much of a difference, you can flash the firmware in exactly the same way, etc. In addition to that, you will get:

  • More layers
  • Real Apple Fn / Globe key support
  • Activating layers automatically based on which operating system the host computer runs
  • Extra read-only layers (use them if you want, otherwise ignore – they are free extra layers you can use but don't have to, they take no slots away from your own layers)
  • Override Num Lock / Caps Lock / Scroll Lock LED state based on which layer is active (e.g., for simulated Num Lock, or just to indicate some special layer is active by lighting something like Scroll Lock LED)
  • Persistent and improved capsense matrix calibration, debug output for it, faster capsense matrix scanning
  • PS/2 output, requires hardware mod
  • (maybe better ability to wake computers from sleep, but not sure if it's just my imagination)

YOYOYO,  This thing is $42 right now, amazon with coupon code 4YFJQUGG

No idea if it's goood, but it looks supr cool, so Heck, Tp4 will try it for $42.

Most chargers like this with a screen and readout are $100+

Talix is backed by lenovo, so you know they're communits.

20,000 is on the low side, 27,000 is the max airline allows,  close enough.

It's got a pretty cool readout with graphs

It looks really cool, no idea if it's gud.  But Tp4 will try it at $42.

27000mah is as much as you can bring on a plane, but it gets into the cumbersome category. 20,000 is a decent amount. more than you'd realistically need.

Other Geeky Stuff / Re: What is your optimal monitor size?
« Last post by tp4tissue on Sat, 18 July 2026, 09:58:16 »
32 is the BARE MINIMUM,  it is far from ideal. The natural vergence, relaxed position of the eye , where the eyes turn inward to focus on a forward object is approximately 1.5 meters.

You can't see 32" at 1.5 meters, it's about as big as 2 poker card.


Ideally you want at least 75-98 inches @ 1.5-2 meters.

Tpoor4 found 77 to be a good middle ground for 10 foot rooms as offices.

+Standing desk that can go down to 25-26", MUST be dual motor. at least 5 feet wide.

+200Lb motorized monitor lift that has 1 meter throw.

Day 4 in the deatklwd.

Hope dwindling.

The smog is relentless, blew out to sea for a few hours, then circled back.

The dialog between nature and mankind, behold, what evil you've sewn.



For _west management, what is that even?  Well, actually, it's a set of convoluted paid science for logging companies to just "cut some" trees down,,  to pock mark the land, and eventually TAKE IT ALL.

They're not going in there and just picking up sticks. They use it as an excuse to set up camp, then the local govrnment that approved it turns a blind eye when they start taking out larger pieces of forest flesh.   They'll cite things like, bugs, dry fuel on the ground, etc.

ACTUALLLLYYY,  that fallen biomatter Traps Moisture at the surface, to keep the soil moist. The moisture cultures the soil, fungus and other bacteria which the "Eco SYSTEM" needs.   

Where it does dry out into tinder, is in sporadic situations where it's either a plantation (green desert, single species zone planted by humans) or some other damaged unhealthy patch (by previous logging).

Green desert is a big issue, A forest requires a diverse set of plant and animal species,  if you just have 100% pine tree, that arrangement could not thrive, it grows just enough to be culled for "profit."  WHILE, destroying the soil underneath.

Old growth f0h ,west looks nothing like pine deserts.
