Tech Tweaks / PowerToys

Discovered this cool app from Microsoft recently. It adds dozens of extra features to Windows, many of which are particularly useful for designers and developers. I found it while looking at ways to more easily resize images in Windows. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/

Desktops & Laptops / Re: New KB And Mouse 2025

I forgot to post about this. LOL

The KB doesn't have a soft palm rest. :( Anyhow, I already have one. :)

I'm loving the colors! There's literally hundreds of custom profiles that I can download to control my PC fans (not Corsair), my KB and monitor. But, I'm still trying to get the monitor to work with it. Here's 2 links for the available profiles:

Internet Discussion / AutoHotkey

AutoHotkey gives you the freedom to automate any desktop task. Be warned... You may need to learn some coding. However, their forums have a lot of pre-written scripts that may fit your needs.

EDIT: Looks like there's more to it than I've anticipated. :) When I first looked at this, I could see a more possibilities for it. However, I didn't foresee this and I like it! :)

It's called HotGestures. It has a GestureRecorder to generate custom gestures...no coding required. 8) :

Here's where I first saw it:

Here's the link to the Github page for it:

Desktops & Laptops / New KB And Mouse 2025
Last post by Skhilled - May 10, 2025, 06:39 PM
I've ordered a new mouse and keyboard. The mouse is an updated version of my current one I've been using for many years, which I got in the mail today. :) It has whisper quiet mouse buttons, a lot of various functions including configuring gestures, and app-specific customizations which you can save for any app you use! And I got the pale grey one to match my PC's color. I wish I could've got the white one but it didn't have the same exact features for some reason. It's also a lot smoother and works on glass.

I'm expecting this white KB Tuesday and can't wait, since I've yet to try a Corsair KB. :) It has per-key RGB lighting, a soft palm rest, and a lot of other features. :)

Quote from: Skhilled on Apr 27, 2025, 06:30 PMOne thing to add to this that I've read just a few months ago. NEVER use fingerprinting or facial recognition to activate your device! The police can physically force you to use your fingerprint or face access your device. But, they can't enter your mind nor erase a password from it. ;)

Never wanted to use facial recognition or fingerprints I still use good old passwords  ;D
