They don’t work with the 0-9 row above the alphabet. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1vr4…92wq How’s the trackpad? Does it rival Apple’s? npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG How the fuck can this have been allowed?

I’ve made some truly dreadful mistakes when under pressure from my kids. All one can do is try to do better next time. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1c5u…sr87 There is no better looking screen than a 1-bit active matrix LCD. And you can read it in sunlight. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1vpr…n5tn The timewyrm series was great. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1vpr…n5tn The timewyrm series was great. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1q0f…rdcz It’s a design classic. Reckon they’d sell squillions if they remade them (nb I had a white one in about 1988). npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1q0f…rdcz It’s a design classic.

I love it. How much of an adjustment is the grid-pattern keyboard? npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1q0f…rdcz It smells great. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1lrv…tth9 No, Good point — I meant to say “but if you’re into physical buttons then that’s no good”. That said, because they’re haptic rather than physically moving there isn’t the problem where you can only “click” at the bottom of the pad because it hinges at the top. Are there other laptop makers who make haptic rather than moving trackpads? npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1lrv…tth9 @npub1t9n…k9e7 Even with physical buttons so many modern trackpads suck. My work Thinkpad’s is unusable. Apple’s are great imo, even under Linux. npub1ch6q92ywn5j3cdt8p853qgpgxvf9mp86c25stleedlfhqrj3ff0s8q7sp6 CharlieG @npub1eee…e209 I wish you’d be more sceptical about Threads. I’m sure the app itself is fine, but for a long-term Facebook refuser your positive spin on it seems strange. Facebook is the creepiest of ad companies, the most invasive of privacy invaders, and the purveyors of misinformation par excellence.
