Arnd LayerThis would also open up a whole new world of input devices like #macroPad|s, #rotaryController|s, #touchStrip|s, and so on, with a much better chance for them to work with any OS and device makers could focus hardware without having to develop software hacks.

Jim P.I have a shiny new QMK/VIAL configurable macro pad and thanks to some magic with the compose key to work around the fact that it can't directly output Unicode, I now have the dedicated interrobang key I've wanted for years.
Cool, huh‽
OK, that's not the real reason I wanted it, but it's a huge bonus.
G) #ePaper displays for #MagicKeyboard and #MagicTouchPad as well as for the Mac Neo with keyboard and touchpad
Add an paper display for every key and the touchpad surface. With this they can offer massive added functionality and have to sell only one SKU of the keyboard. Use a new open HID-standard that allows for more intelligent peripherals, e.g. #MacroPad|s.

Enjoyed talking with @prcutler on this ep! Learn how I planned to get the drop on Happy Meal toys, the Isle of Misfit Boards, rising to the top of the charts with a four chord song, what would happen if Freud played Shadowrun, and the Macropad Hotkeys II.
