and this switching works even if you do not use ANY software.

there is subtle difference in situation you both describing, but that subtle difference can be HUGE thing.

MX series can be connected to multiple devices, most bluetooth accessories cant, still in BT5 world, but thats how it is.

so. even if software is absolutely same, you get better experience with MX keyboards.. because you dont have to pair it everytime you take your keyboard to work etc. which most keyboards fail to do. which is ridiculous. also with mx keyboard you can use it on your ipad, pc,.... and there is button or key shortcut(depends on model) which helps you to switch to that other device.

so you can have ipad + desktop in front of you and when you are writing on pc and your ipad email notification goes on, you just press keyboard shorcut and you can start typing on your ipad.

sorry for this convoluted explanation, but in real use it removes so many annoyances that it is worth mentioning.

mx series of products is best product line from all manufacturers of this kind of accessory combined and i can tell you i had a looooot of wireless keyboards in my life. i use ipad more that 10 years and had almost always keyboard connected. first ipad was trash as..

do you have any low KEY TRAVEL silen keyboards ? waht i absolutelly hate about "mechanical" keyboards is that unnecessary long key travel which makes typing slower. and that constatn freaking noise is cancer.

JBL bluetooth headphones have "firmware feature" which lowers volume of left earpiece slowly over time. Happened on multiple different products, bought by schoolmates of mine and also on 3 different units of one product for me.

Pioneer SE-M531, M521 .... have similar problem with screws as you state.

logitech - i absolutely LOVE MX series of products they are innovative and provide absolutelly best functionality, keys look nice not really my style but they look nice as a unit.

so i am sad to see they jumped on mechanical keyboard bandwagon, i hate mechanical keyboards with all my life. always clicking, long travel, slow typing....

Great article but

why are you guys still use this flawed formfactor? This formfactor is made NOT to be ergonomic but made to fit old computers a la apple 2, commodorre 64 etc. Lowest effort formfactor, lowest common denominator product.

Why not make split keyboard with "angled" keys for best posture / hand comfort ? and also mounting it on your chairs hand rest instead of putting it on your desk ?

in "green" economy you have to MANUFACTURE carbohydrates and then produce plastic from that. no oil, should be default in current thinking.

glass is made from sand, there is less glass in world then sand, and again, why lock more precious commodity in another product which we are already making from other less precious commodity ?

plastic can be infused with chemicals to not burn, but other than that youre right.

Problem is, plastic can be "dissolved" and then recycled, so why lock precious commodity as plastic in bricks for decades ?

convert all JS to "native" via LLVM.... or just webassembly ..

programming languages are ONLY communication layers between human and computer, they are not some voodoo, gift from god, so these layers can be made to suit human needs.

instead of browser downloading blob from facebook, your package manager will dowload it, and that can be made over P2P (like torrent) because you do not need it in 0.000001 sec. it will sit in cache. and this can be signed with current certification authority ecosystem almost without change to provide safe downloads.

NEXTgen hardware virtualization + QUBES OS-like usage of virtualization but made nice looking and frictionless to standard user. Thats the future we get.

Plan9 and EMACS have architecture which is antithetic to economic model of todays software industry, so in that sense im glad we did have windows95-like buggy macos (until atleast 10.4-10.5) XD

EMACS is essentially SAP+github+Office(including Visio and Power Automate) for your own offcloud usage. If you think about it.

Who even has such a word in vocabulary and first thing your mind came up with is ...

But hey, maybe youre just salty after googling Sparcbook and realizing how innovative Apple was with Touchbar XD ( which apple killed by using it wrong )
