  • I’ve been clinging to my 10 year old Logitech diNovo Mini, but when this thing kicks the bucket dunno how I’m gonna replace it. Trackpad has been pretty good, and I like the fact that it turns off and is protected when the clamshell is closed so I don’t accidentally press stuff when it gets lost in the couch. We really need an open source mini keyboard so people can make their own and customize buttons, etc.

  • Am I the only one that thinks that USB-C power delivery is a con?

    Having the option to charge with usb-c in a pinch is a really nice feature, but for longterm use I’d really rather usb-c plus a seperate barrel jack for power.

    The barrel jacks on business line laptops are usually a separate module that if it breaks from catching the cord with your foot and ripping it out of the laptop, you can replace the module. I’m not sure I’ve really seen replaceable usb-c power jacks very commonly, they’re usually part of the motherboard because it’s a combined power delivery/thunderbolt port or something. Now if you rip the cord out the jack is totally fucked And you have to solder a new one on.
