  1. Windswept, Red Rising, Silo on Slashdot Asks: What Books Are You Reading This Month? · · Score: 1

    Just finished "Windswept" and "Like a Boss" by Adam Rakunas. Interesting take (if a bit one-sided) on interplanetary labor contracts, union/corporate dynamics, and grass-roots organizing. I hope he's working on another book with Padma and friends.

    Current audiobook is Golden Son (#2 of the Red Rising series; start with Red Rising).

    Next up will be "Dust" (#3 of the Silo series; start with Wool Omnibus).

  2. Re:Can I use the Windows key in Linux? on Changing the Keyboard · · Score: 1
    Yes. The xmodmap command can remap any key on your keyboard.

    To find out what your "Windows" keys currently do, run xev and see what pops up when you type each key. On my keyboard, the three windows keys (keycode 115, 116, 117) were originally mapped to Meta_L, Meta_R, and Menu. Good for Emacs, I suppose.

    To change them, see the manpage for xmodmap. To change them permanently, add a line like xmodmap $HOME/.Xmodmap to your .xinitrc file.
