We used to get the money back with a pretty reliable mechanical method, stuffing a flattened MacDonald's straw into the machine above the spare change slot and jiggling in and out. You needed a coin for the call but could return and re use it each time or even for the same call.
I owned the iPhone 12 mini and thought it was a great phone - I was able to one hand it quite easy and the hardware specs were more than sufficient. My partner now uses it but she would prefer a slightly larger screen I think. I moved to a Pixel 5 and think it is currently one of the best smaller phones - For most stuff I can one hand this phone too, and in some ways the ergonomics of the Pixel are better. For instance the back side finger print scanner unlock is the best I've ever used. I used to want to keep my aux port, but the bluetooth audio industry has really stepped up in recent years - I still just use my airpod pros and probably will continue too
That would be amazing - like the framework laptop diy edition and you can customise the keyboard part and the hinges or something and run low profile mechanical switches in whatever layout you and keymap you want
Linux is not a 0 issue OS, but I use roughly the same methods and reasoning to get it to workable state as I might on Windows 10 and I wouldn't say it even takes much longer. Linux is surely cheaper. The difference is, Linux can keep growing in the direction you want and choose.
I would also like to know this - as far as I could see, there was only one pretty meaningless lesson about alternate arrow keys - IMO, this doesn't sell Vim to a newbie, nor does it sell the $15 product
