It's been really awesome getting to work with @a every day at Spritely. Amy joined as Technical Administrator about a month ago and has been doing an incredible job.

When I say Amy is an incredible #Emacs witch, I mean, just look at her "boxy" org-mode diagram tool gitlab.com/grinn.amy/boxy-head

@cwebber @a

makes me think that the pants have keyboard keys on each leg and has quiet typing keys and connects to your device via bluetooth ⌨️ 👖

@unicornCoder@fosstodon.org @cwebber@octodon.social that's it lol! Yeah you just rest your hands on your thighs and start typing. Keyboard pants.

@a @cwebber @unicornCoder

It is also when you've been typing so much that the keyboard is out of air and kinda has to just pant there gasping for breath.

@a @cwebber @unicornCoder oh @technomancy made several versions of those, if I recall correctly

@gnomon @a @cwebber @unicornCoder really only one keyboard pants proper; I found that this style was kind of a pain to velcro on and off when you needed a restroom break

however I found that a single-piece board with a shoulder strap got you 90% of the ergonomic benefit with a lot less hassle! (pictured here with full cyberdeck regalia because I don't have a photo of the board on its own but nowadays I use it as a standalone keyboard)

@technomancy @gnomon @a @cwebber @unicornCoder Unlock maximum chaos energy by wearing keyboard pants with programming socks! :BurningElmo:
