@freepeoplesfreepress indeed!

@icedquinn Squars are superior for games IMO.

With hexagons you cant go left and right, you have to zig zag, and give you only 6 directions you can go in per move.

With squares you **can** go left and right and it has 2 additional directions you can go in, a total of 8 for every move.

@admitsWrongIfProven Its an old code, but it checks out.

When I was born (early 1980s) the world population was 4.6 billion. Today it is 7.9 billion. Having the entire world population experience a 171% change over just half a lifetime is not sustainable or healthy. Dont let anyone tell you there isnt a population crisis.

@petrisch Just use the git svn command to access it and dont bother with svn

@freepeoplesfreepress Thank you so much, you too

@freepeoplesfreepress I never took it that way, but thank you.

@FluentInFinance That part you will get a lot of I am sure. As I said feel free to reach out if you need anything too.

@FluentInFinance Well we are a friendly bunch. Though a glance at your profile and I hate to tell you there is a strong anti-capitalist lean here. That said if you need any help just let me know, always happy to help a new comer.

Best of luck to you.

For transparency only reason I am not following is I generally avoid commercial or advertising profiles. In addition your following to follower count is going to raise some huge red flags to folks here. Some servers may even ban you for "follow spam", so be careful there.

Otherwise I really do wish you the best here.

@freepeoplesfreepress To each their own. I myself have no problem openly discussing sexually explicit material. There are some courtesies one might provide where an image (which can be glanced at accidentally) should of course be obstructed. But nonsexist sexualized language I have absolutely no problem with.

Be warned at some point you will hear something more graphic out of my mouth for sure.

That said of course, I respect whatever limits you wish to put on your own language, or what language you decide to read

@freepeoplesfreepress I agree with that.

@futurebird Ok no worries... well I know my keyboard, yours, and all QMK keyboards do support this, but the feature needs to be turned on in your firmware and I am only uncertain about if via will accept the command (but im pretty sure it will)... so if you want it as a seperate device you may want to still get a qmk based keyboard... I am about 3 minutes away from having it working here on my computer just to make sure im not lying to you.

Let me know if i can be of any more help.

@robertnorlyn

:)

@FluentInFinance

@futurebird Its because you dont have those special options enabled int he firmware then, because your keyboard can support it in theory it just needs an updated firmware then with the options turned on.

I can compile a firmware for you, or make a branch for you so you can see the code and download it yourself, if you'd like.

@futurebird Yes that will wipe the EEPROM... not suggesting you use it, i am ppointing out one of the special codes that wont be in the drop down but does show confirm.

If you did use it it would just mean you'd have to restore from via.

I am sorry I should have been more clear and told you it is an example of a special keycode but not one I was suggesting you use.

@futurebird

FYI the following example is from the docs so should be valid

UC(0x40B)

@futurebird I dont use the unicode feature myself, but like i said i am happy to enable it and try to figure it out with you. When i said earlier that you can confirm codes not in the dropdown i mean non-unicode keycodes that via doesnt know about but the keyboard accepts (there are quite a few I can give some examples).

As a non-unicode example I use QK_CLEAR_EEPROM which only works if you have an eeprom but if you do then when you type it in it wont be in the drop down but it will accept it and allow you to confirm...

Give me about 5 or 10 minutes to recode, compile, and flash a firmware with via and unicode on (i turn via off on my keyboard) and i can test it for you a bit on my end to give you better answers.

@futurebird if you enter a code the keyboard accepts but is not in via it wont be in the drop down but will let you hit confirm. If the code is not accepted by the keyboard or int he drop down then confirm will not highlight.

So either you entered it in in the wrong format, or yout unicode support isnt enabled in your firmware, or maybe via doesnt support unicode despite the firmware supporting it...one of the three.

Depending on how much time you want to invest i am sure we can get unicode support going for you if your willing to flash a new firmware (while I'd be happy to compile it for you for security reasons i do recommend you compile your own since I wouldnt expect you to trust me and I could do a lot of harm)
