Have I ever mentioned that I read the webcomic xkcd?
I admit this isn’t the best strip, but it shows what I love about xkcd: that’s me! I usually try to avoid just answering “I’m fine thanks”, because that’s just plain boring. And most of the times isn’t really a honest answer at all.
Other than that, there are so many comics there which I can identify myself with. Almost all of them. (OK, maybe not all; can’t recall being strapped like that).
Guess I’m a geek after all.
Tip of the day: don’t try to rolling hop a curb with an umbrella in your hand. At least not without practice.
On a side note, I’m quite comfortable on my new keyboard now. Typing about 30 wpm, ~57 % of my original qwerty speed. After a month. Not too bad. And my hands feel good doing it, no more awkward twists.
I said I was going to remap some keys, here’s the result; I’m pleased to introduce chvorak 0.9:

Note that I’ve omitted the backspace, enter and space key in the middle. You can’t see the function keys either (for example the numpad).
I’m really happy with the layout so far. The only thing I don’t really like is the placement of the apostrophe. It’s quite dangerous being between Esc and Tab, but in my opinion much better than the Svorak placement.
