@chrisdmacrae I find it hard to imagine wanting to move entirely away from some mechanical/tactical aspect... (As I type this on an iPhone!) but the draw of these customisable, retro clacking-clack keyboard still eludes me.
@scottjenson @MsSammieRose Longer travel and louder keypress both seem like a backwards step to me. But so many people whose opinions I respect seem to enjoy them.
Rather hoping that there is some attribute or experience that I’ve overlooked.
Perhaps it’s all just down to personal tastes.

@chrisdmacrae This all makes sense. I’ve enjoyed the trend to shorter travel distances on keys. So I’m a little uncertain about the apparent trend back to looooong travels. Feels like more “work” to my mind.
@MsSammieRose I work from home. But even so, that’s something that rather turns me off them (from my limited understanding)
@Benghamine Ha. I’d remember a time when this wouldn’t need to be expressed as a baseline. That’s a few years ago though, I guess.
@feather With regards to the specialism rather than the contract, this makes me think of the excellent @marcysutton.
Who, even if not available, might have thoughts on this.

@sarah_edo @brianarn And I want to start reveal increasingly ridiculous garments by “accidentally” standing up during calls.
(Um... Will this show up in my annual review?)

@sarah_edo @JakeDohm Hmm. Yeah. You make a good point. Ok. I suggest this update to our meeting protocol:
- Always be on time.
- No agenda, no meeting.
- Wardrobe check is item one.

@JakeDohm @sarah_edo Number of video calls with @sarah_edo today: 3
Number of times should stood up: 0
Just sayin’.

@thebookofdoodle @sarah_edo I used to wear "work shoes" (a pair of sneakers which I only wore at home for work) to help me tell my brain, "it's work time, Philip!"
But now, I'm all about the slippers. ooh la la!
(Also on planes. Ask me anything)

@rafahari @jlengstorf Wait... your coffee mug has a wireless charging dock?

I'm living so far in the past I need to go and rediscover fire.
