If a thief doesn’t want your cheap tech, is it really worthless? I think not.

Cheap-Ass Tech :: HisVirusness

It's Christmas time again. That means it's time for people to discuss their gadgetry, typically in the context of wanting the hot new gadgetry out, instead of the old, busted and played-out gadgetry that they've been using for the last six months. Through all of that useless noise, I came across something I haven't seen or heard in a while. It's an older joke, but it seems to be making the rounds again: Android devices are so cheap, even thieves don't want them. And, of course, Samsung Galaxies are name-checked the most, since they're the largest Android brand.

Was ordering some stickers off Temu and decided to throw in a AU$5 keyboard. Those key caps are something…

On the bright side, it actually appears to be mechanical and will take my old Das Keyboard keycaps. Which are due for a replacement from being so worn out.
