@davidrevoy is your keyboard raised on a little platform? i can't quite tell.

kate

@davidrevoy (i'm trying to figure out a set up that lets me switch easily between drawing and typing, thus my particular interest there)

David Revoy

@kate On this setup, I type with the two forearms on the XpPenArtistPro24 display. It's 'ok' because it's not a super hot display tablet; but not 100% ideal. Still, I managed recently to make big morning of writing or code for the website in this position. When I have to do more keyboard intensive task for the full day; I just detach the keyboard, and push the display under the top one (and close it). Not ideal again, but so far, it works.

@davidrevoy @kate
Wouldn't your tablet have the function to turn into a keyboard to type?

David Revoy

@NeadReport No, it's not a tablet with touch support, only stylus. ๐Ÿ™‚ And maybe it's a good thing because I'm not really liking the touch keyboards in general: I'm slow with them, miss click a lot on keys. I still feel them to be a good workaround on small pad/tablet or phone; but I wouldn't edit an article with a keyboard like that or code a new page for my website with that.

kate

@davidrevoy @NeadReport yeah, same essentially. Also I've never met an on screen keyboard layout that can handle heavy markdown usage, much less coding.

David Revoy

@kate It's a very cool piece of hardware, the universal Cintweak keyboard trays: cintweak.com/ , a life changer for keyboard shortcuts ๐Ÿ‘ .

@davidrevoy that shark cute, and the art is all great. Your setup is definitely a productivity machine :)

@davidrevoy cute! what's the yellow pad on the bottom right?
David Revoy

@son_link Oh, lucky you, your instance has Blahaj emoji. :blobcatheart:

@davidrevoy I've considered buying that scanner (well, a slightly different model I think). I will consider this a Seal of Approval

@davidrevoy Very nice workspace setup, indeed.๐Ÿ˜ƒ

@portugalense In my backpack , it's my travel machine. It doesn't has enough power to make a Pepper&Carrot comic page or compiling an episode, but today I took it to Toulouse library and made a conf with it. Good little laptop.

portugalense

@davidrevoy i was the one to ask for fingerprint some time ago :-)

David Revoy

@portugalense ๐Ÿ˜ฎ oh right, my bad for not recognising you. Have you managed to get the fingerprint functional, btw?

portugalense

@davidrevoy me lazy , so no i haven't tried the thing the other person sent :blob_cry:

NeadReport

@davidrevoy How do you like those Sennheiser cans? Model?

David Revoy

@NeadReport It's the Sennheiser HD 599 , I took it in July because I had to change my very old one (even if I DIY a lot, but it was 10 years old and started to bug hard ๐Ÿ˜†). This one was praised in the reviews. I disliked it a lot at first opening: I was probably too used to listen to my music with my previous headphones. Bass/Treble changed and I wasn't used to it. Another con: when listening loudly, the room around can hear your music a bit. With time, I adapted to it but, yep, a bit meh.

@davidrevoy Having lived through so much computing itโ€™s a amazing the things we have today. That tablet is so futuristic and what can be done is mind blowing.

David Revoy

@breadbin Oh yes, especially compared to 20 years ago when flat panel were still super expensive. I remember my first Cintiq 12wx, with 1280x800px for 12 inch, super dark. Then my bulky super expensive 21UX. This large 24 inch has quad HD resolution (2560x1440px) and is not that thick. It makes me wonder how will look my desk in 20 years from now ๐Ÿ™‚

Slothdude

@davidrevoy @breadbin โ€œDesk? Where weโ€™re going, we donโ€™t need desks.โ€
Well, actually, I believe we will, for arm support if nothing else. And a stylus is better than trying to finger paint with virtual tools, as is a real keyboard for typing. But a lot of the other stuff will probably be replaced by unobtrusive AR gear.

Gen X-Wing

@davidrevoy I remember trying to paint something (very unsuccessfully I might add, Iโ€™m no artist) using a joystick on a C64:)

Who knows if the future breakthroughs will be hardware, software, or something else. :)

Saw_C13

@davidrevoy it's so beautiful! Sorry abaut my english, i speak spanish.

David Revoy

@Splig Oh nice! I'll probably try to put one at vertical too, it looks great on your setup when you watch a video that use only a portion of that vertical screen. ๐Ÿ‘

@davidrevoy Nice setup! Does monitor calibration work in Wayland now, or are you still on X11?

David Revoy

@kvaks Hi! Wayland is far to be ready for my workflow, color calibration might be soon for next 6 month or 1 year (in progress?) but many features are still missing. Wayland can't even calibrate the cursor under the pen tip (to avoid parralax) on this tablet, so not possible for me to make art under Wayland right now. ๐Ÿ˜”

Ademan

โ€œcalibrate the cursor under the pen tip (to avoid parralax)โ€

I didnโ€™t realize artists did this, that only helps as long as youโ€™re using your tablet from one angle right? If you were to adjust the angle of your tablet youโ€™d need to recalibrate this?

@davidrevoy Does Sharky do something besides of wearing headphones?
