Fun fact: The pen is called a stylus. They were also used in ancient times to put marks in clay tablets.
Cuneiform! I happen to be something of a cuneilinguist myself!
The Palm Pre was damn right gorgeous, even came with a cheese knife built it!
Jokes aside, the Pre is one of the most beautiful phones I have ever seen.

Nah, it had a relatively sharp edge by the keyboard:

Lmao, what a machine
Capitalism disinvented tactile feedback.
No wonder I love my 1986 IBM keyboard so much.
The Model F and M were developed with the direct collaboration of professional typists, and were awarded the most comfortable typing experience. They are my dream board, and I want them.
Sadly, Model F’s are out of my price range, for now, but you can find model M’s with adapters for less than 200.
Which I know is a lot, but I will be using at least a model M for the rest of my life.
Yeah, I look at the screen of my phone when it’s off and 🤮
“I am disgusting.” 😭
we all are.
And how!
