    • I was a 60% guy until I borrowed (stole? I still have it) a Kensis Advantage from a coworker.
    • Not long after I built a couple Ergodox (Hotdox). I used all 76 keys for about 5 years.
    • I built a beautiful wireless Ergodox with a metal case and solar charging (SliceMK) that I have basically never used :/
    • For the last year and a half I’ve used a dactyl manuform (Wylder) that I soldered with ameba king per key pcbs. 39 keys (I don’t use a few) + a trackball.

    I don’t see myself changing anytime soon, auto mouse layer is amazing. I have a Draculad PCB and case but no real reason to build it since I wfh.




  • Security-wise that is significantly worse. Google Pay generates a random card number per transaction and isn’t active when the phone is locked.

    I keep my credit cards in an NFC blocking sleeves because the passive NFC can’t be turned off. Someone could literally bump into you and cause a transaction.











  • Wut. Why would they bother when your cellular connection is constantly pinging all towers to literally triangulate your location? Why do something much more complicated to get data they already have?

    The real answer is they are a multi billion dollar company with telemetry. Obviously, the vast majority of people never turn off WiFi or Bluetooth. Most people want quick access to connect to a WiFi network or Bluetooth device, not to toggle either off.
