Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

wtf is going on with that touchpad - is it a tap calculator input?

[–] smiletolerantly@awful.systems 3 points 6 hours ago

Numpad/pin input. Utterly useless in my opinion. Also apparently activates itself pretty regularly by accident from palms resting when typing. YouTube comments are full of people desperate for a windows/driver update which lets you deactivate this thing.

Oh, btw, I did not go through the trouble of enabling support under Linux (you can, but it's optional, because, well... Linux)
