Nah, actually I am right there with your whole team. I like wired more on account of it holding up for way longer and not having to be bothered with. I'm gunna have the missus take a look, but I didn't see anything wrong with the thing as a whole. I just left it sitting around for a little cause I wasn't feeling the best and didn't want to use anything but my lappy. I have been going back and forth on the text thing. Because I am a mad extremist and can't seem to help it. I used to use old-lady text size for everything. Was just blowing up my screen. It was an easy read, but it lowered reading speed. Which kinda altered my comprehension in a way, because you're taking in information super slowly. And my brain isn't the greatest at keeping the pieces held together. I just loaded up Fedora a couple of weeks ago from Endeavor which I adored as a whole but was crashing at random times and was driving me up a wall. I kept all the fonts at base level to see if I could cope. Cause like I said, I wanted to be able to read faster. But I think I've just got to give in and boost it. Even if it's a little.
Thanks for the response by the by, was a fun one =)
p.s. - I have the bluetooth dongle to go out and write little short stories based off of micro-prompts. So in that sense, it just has to fit in a bag, connect, stay charged, and be somewhat capable at not having me write cor/ or corb when I wanna write corn. It's crazy how they squish up these keyboards and make them unusable. I was looking for a super micro one to type out some stuff in bed and can't find a non-squished handheld qwerty. So if you know one that hasn't terribly butchered the bottom row I'd be down for a suggestion =)!
FYI wireless BLE keyboards, when implemented properly, will last months on a single charge. Unlike mice, they consume very little power, since they don't scan the surface beneath them 1000-8000 times per second.
Logitech and similar models that come with a dongle use some fashion of 2.4Ghz Band RF, which may use more power, and the battery will not last as long.
Thank you dub, which btw DUBYA! Hahaha! Aww man, I love linguistics. Freakin' A! You say warsh too? Ah! It's like being swaddled mentally =)! I never thought about the mechanics behind the two but it is some fun brain fodder. And it makes sense, the second you pause and give it a think. Thanks again =)
