VitaLink keyboard has a 13 inch 4K touchscreen display, speakers, and RGB backlit keys (crowdfunding)

Over the past year or two we’ve seen several crowdfunding campaigns for a weird category of devices: keyboards with built-in displays and clamshell designs that basically make them look like tiny laptops.

The latest example? The VitaLink keyboard has a 13 inch, 4K touchscreen display and an RGB backlit keys. What makes this model a little different than some others is the front-facing stereo […]

Apple Keyboard Rant:

My M3 Max MacBook Pro, for which I paid over €5,500, has developed sticky keys that often only work on the second press. Compressed air doesn’t help. I bought this laptop, among other things, specifically because Butterfly Gate was behind us and Everything Is Good Now.

To be clear: I do not care what the cause is. Not even a tiny bit.I have a 15-year old Lenovo laptop that probably has more crumbs mass than key switches under the key caps and the keyboard is still perfect. It has never ever not typed a letter when the key was pressed. Never. Functioning Laptop Keyboards Are Possible. Also: The key caps on the Lenovo keyboard can easily be removed for cleaning and replaced without permanently destroying key switch mechanisms that are apparently made of gossamer, tissue paper and butterfly wings.

Also: The keyboard on my MacBook Pro also sucks as a keyboard. It’s mushy, cheap, the keys are flat and the typing feel is no better than a €20 grab bin keyboard from the supermarket. This is what behaves like a €20 keyboard in a €5,500 laptop.

How in the ever loving world is a multi trillion dollar company unable or, more likely, unwilling, to make a high-quality and functioning keyboard, in the face of so many examples of keyboards that not only work without failure for decades, but also actually function accepably for the purpose which they exist?

I’ve been using Apple computers since the Apple II. Dammit, I was even at Reed at the same time as Steve Jobs and met him a couple of times in the dorm there. I don’t want to stop using MacOS. I like it and prefer it, even though I work for a Windows company and have to jump through a lot of hoops to keep using it. But dammit, a laptop with a usable, reliable and even pleasant to use keyboard is really beginning to look pretty fracking attractive, even when the price for that means moving back to fracking Windows.

Ugh. I have spoken.

On the 120th anniversary of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire:

“Interlude” – original solo piano improv paired with an excerpt of the Miles Brothers’ “A Trip Down Market Street.”

The 1906 earthquake struck the coast of Northern California on April 18, 1906 and was the deadliest in US history.
