on the left board, I've added a footprint for a USB port, with the top left pin having a trace going to it. the right board has been moved far away, and six of the pins on the chip connected with comically long chains of resistors. the seventh also has a resistor chain coming out of it but it loops back around to the left board and a trace runs up to the usb port. the idea is that they're power and ground but honestly I neither had a specific IC in mind nor looked up which was where on the USB pinout

@nekoewen "aren't split keyboard halves usually further apart than that? also aren't power and ground usually on opposite corners of an IC with two rows of pins, and it's kind of weird to have to run power to one side of your keyboard and ground to the other?"
yes, good point. fortunately we have 0-ohm resistors, which are just the thing to solve both problems
