Yeah, unfortunately I'm looking for the exact opposite of "expensive and ultra-high quality" right now, heh. (My ideal is "works long enough for me to decide if I like it".)

Hmm. Not quite, from what I can see (I'm looking for one with two completely separate pieces), but thanks for thinking of me!

(I also feel like there must be a term to differentiate "split keyboard, as in one piece with space between the halves" from "split keyboard, as in two pieces", but somehow I've yet to find it.)

Anyone have recs for (or tips for finding) a simple, cheap split (as in "two separate pieces") wireless keyboard?

All I'm finding is fancy ultra-customizable ergonomic options, and my standards right now are "works well enough to try out and decide if I want one".

Digital drawing of a brown-skinned woman leaning against two elastic bands. She is dressed in sports clothes and has her hands wrapped in boxing bandages. Her top is branded, blue and white forming a stylized lightning bold, with a stylized R on it. She has her short hair held back by a white bandana. She is looking to the right, brow furrowed and pensive.

The Visible Zorker Project (and Patreon) Announcing the Visible Zorker Project and Patreon. The plan: deconstruct every Infocom game, one per month, and make the source code explorable.

Replay for the morning crowd:

I have launched a Patreon to do Visible Zork 3, followed by all the rest of the Infocom games. One per month. There's an associated Discord for game discussion as we run through them.

Harrier Dubois and the Princess sit on a swing on a beach in Revachol. The motor carriage lies in a ditch, the church to the west, and the downtown to the east. Before them is a Miracle. The Sevenfold Sunrise, the sun itself split into seven. Perhaps it once was coopted by fascist peoples. 

But evil can never tarnish natural beauty.

If there is anything you still care about hosted on LJ -- posts, links, icons, photos, anything -- and you don't have a backup, get that backup ASAP. I have not stayed current on ways to back up. The ones I used to know of:

Zork is now open source Two years ago, I wrote: Microsoft-the-company does not care about Infocom. But a lot of people in Microsoft must care. Microsoft is heavily populated by greying GenX nerds just like me. Folks who grew...

Hey, I bet you didn't hear that Zork 1, 2, and 3 were open-sourced today!

…Oh, you have heard. Yeah. Way ahead of me. :)

Here's my comments, and some details that you might not have seen.
