    Looks like evremap will do what I want, plus a nifty bonus! The following config lets me use CapsLock + N/P/etc to navigate. And if I just tap CapsLock without pressing anything else, it will act as escape.

    device_name = "Telink Wireless Receiver"

[[dual_role]]
input = "KEY_CAPSLOCK"
hold = ["KEY_F19"]
tap = ["KEY_ESC"]

[[remap]]
input = ["KEY_F19", "KEY_N"]
output = ["KEY_DOWN"]

[[remap]]
input = ["KEY_F19", "KEY_P"]
output = ["KEY_UP"]

[[remap]]
input = ["KEY_F19", "KEY_B"]
output = ["KEY_LEFT"]

[[remap]]
input = ["KEY_F19", "KEY_F"]
output = ["KEY_RIGHT"]

[[remap]]
input = ["KEY_F19", "KEY_A"]
output = ["KEY_HOME"]

[[remap]]
input = ["KEY_F19", "KEY_E"]
output = ["KEY_END"]

    Note: I used F19 because it doesn’t seem to be bound to anything by default. Apparently, a bunch of the other function keys already did things, as described in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/inet

    $ cat /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/inet | grep FK13
    key    {      [ XF86Tools         ]       };
    key   {       [ XF86MailForward       ]       };
    key   {       [ XF86Word              ]       };      // F2
    key   {       [ XF86MailForward       ]       };      // F3

$ cat /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/inet | grep FK20
    key    {      [ XF86AudioMicMute      ]       };

    Hospitals will hire some staff on a temporary basis (e.g. 3-6 month contracts) to fill gaps in their staffing during times of high demand. The idea is that experienced and flexible healthcare workers (whose living situations allow it) can “travel” by working 3-6 month contracts around the country. These contracts will often pay quite a bit more than permanent staff, and it’s especially desirable for staff from states who don’t pay as well (e.g. Florida) to work someplace that pays much better (e.g. California).

    You will often hear of it in the context of nurses, but I’ve run into radiology techs, social workers, and all sorts of other staff who were traveling on contracts.

    In contrast to your image, I find that travelers tend to skew younger (since they generally have fewer commitments keeping them in one place). However, I’ve also seen couples who travel together (both in healthcare), and facilities will often accommodate this by hiring both and scheduling them to work same shifts so they can carpool. I’ve also seen empty-nester couples travel with an RV.

    Anyway, these travel nurses would need places to stay for 3-6 months at a time, hence renting a room to them.

    Added some info to the post. Firewall is blocking 3289 UDP from my printer, so I added 3289 UDP to open ports for “home”, “public”, and “internal” zones. However, I’m still seeing filter_IN_public_REJECT entries in dmesg, so it seems the firewall is still blocking these. Is there a different way I should be telling it to allow requests on this port?

    Firewall also allows mdns service (again, in “home”, “public”, and “internal” zones), but I also see entries like this:

    [41951.119486] filter_IN_public_REJECT: IN=wlp0s20f0u3 OUT= MAC= SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=224.0.0.1 LEN=36 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=1 ID=10725 DF PROTO=2 MARK=0x3214

    It sounds like 224.0.0.1 is related to mdns broadcasts, so it seems firewall is also still blocking these (despite mdns being allowed service).

    Am I specifying these in the wrong place? (Per Connections - System Settings, my wifi is in Firewall zone “home”).
