Deuter8on Probability of typing a wrong Bitcoin address

Good.

True, I've done nothing, but that's still a lot less damage than you have done. I only wish you had been as lazy.

We will never forget the censorship and gas-lighting that you orchestrated. You did stop good people from making positive change in the world. I won't appeal to your conscience - I don't believe it's there - so I'll settle for hoping that you are hounded rather than haunted for the rest of your life. You deserve that much and more.

Early on in Bitcoin's life, Satoshi had a clear plan for increasing blocksize as necessary, but you went and screwed that up with your buddies. Hope it was worth it for you per$onally. OGs will never forget.

Hey, we don't want to be associated with him either.

My current plan is to retrofit buttons to my clickpad. Earlier this week I ordered a few different styles of touchpad buttons from AliExpress to test. I'll build a custom little USB HID device for it once I've picked my favourite one.

I don't think I can rely on laptop manufacturers to buck the clickpad trend any time soon, so I'll do it myself.

We can admire Framework's commitment to repairable hardware without pretending that it's unique. I spilled my drink of choice on my Alienware X17 and was able to replace the keyboard for $100 from AliExpress armed only with a Phillips head.

Have you? The precision vs a touchpad with buttons isn't even close. It may well be a driver issue in Linux, all I know for sure is that it's an issue that does not exist with touchpads and that I have already spent far too much of my life fiddling with settings trying to get it to behave.

While I prefer an external mouse, I can manage ECAD and some 3D modelling if I have buttons. It's great in a pinch. I'm getting nauseous even imagining it with a clickpad.

I literally just want a touchpad with buttons. These new 'clickpads' are the bane of my existence. They are so much slower, and certain workflows are impossible. I must use an external mouse now with modern laptops.

Why can no laptop manufacturer even make this an option?
