> Although Sales and Marketing would have us believe that we should upgrade our devices on a regular basis
Who would actually even believe that in the first place? Maybe it's an American thing, but with our French spending power, I know of absolutely no one in my family or friend group who has a set schedule for upgrading their devices. It's either "use until it breaks, then replace" or "use until I absolutely need a replacement because it's too slow", the latter of which usually being after 3 years or so.
As for downsizing, once again everyone I know isn't really "downsizing", but buying refurbished devices a few generations old, as the price for brand new devices, even refurbished ones, has gotten pretty crazy.
> now from a first glance it would have the more senior copyright claim.
So what? What matters is authorship, not the date at which it was published on this or that website. Even if a website copies your text, no matter the date, that is still your text and still copyright infringement no matter what if you didn't license this text to them.
I'll switch to Firefox when they get proper vertical tabs like Edge's. I know Microsoft Edge has a really bad reputation, but damn it I can't live without its vertical tabs, and I can disable most of the idiotic AI crap. I know there are plugins, but they all feel quite hacky and are simply not as good.
Weirdly enough, I've heard good things about Dacia's reliability specifically because they use old parts that are known to be reliable. I don't have first-hand experience though so maybe that's not true.
Logseq is great, but I definitely agree that everything around it (docs, website, ...) is terrible. They really need to rework their marketing pitch and give proper docs. Right now you have docs scattered across 3 websites, and the only useful one is made in Logseq itself, which isn't a good system for scaling documentation.
Please, Firefox, for the love of everything, add a good, easy, natively integrated, one-click-to-enable vertical tab list like Edge's. That's the only thing keeping me on Microsoft Edge and it's a dealbreaker for me. The extensions that add ones are just not as good.
That, and Windows being the only OS with good fractional scaling. My main problem with Linux is that, in order to have tolerable fractional scaling, you have to use tons of hacks to make sure everything is running on Wayland. And even then some basic stuff is just broken, like JetBrains IDEs just not supporting scaling (except on KDE but then other stuff like icons are broken), drag and drop being broken in VS Code, cursors sometimes going absolutely massive, etc. macOS straight up doesn't support fractional scaling, which is even worse (good luck using a 1440p 24" display with it).
There's a lot more to it than meat though. According to Wikipedia's page on SPAM:
> The ingredients of Spam vary according to variety and market; those of variety "Spam Classic" are pork with ham, salt, water, modified potato starch, sugar, and sodium nitrite.
I think it's just a matter of preference (and maybe a slight generational gap?). I love the rainbow pattern on one of their other keyboards (the retired Planck EZ). IMO it looks very nice on top of a white case which "reflects" the LEDs' color.
I'm a bit disappointed by the new offering and the retirement of the Planck EZ.
I fully understand the decisions that were made, and while ZSA's keyboards are phenomenal, there is no way I'd buy one at a 404€ price point (including French VAT, excluding customs costs which would bump it to around 450€). The Planck EZ was great because its price point made it justifiable, mine coming around at ~320€ including VAT and customs, which is the max amount of money I'd be willing to spend.
I don't think we'll ever see something like the Planck EZ again (as in a very compact and more affordable option) since the Voyager is the new "laptop solution", and that honestly sucks.
(Side note for anyone pedant enough to care: these customs costs are both actual customs import taxes and the fee taken by the courier for customs processes)
