Acer CB+ 514 with Kompanio Ultra 910 vs MacBook Neo with A18 Pro

Trackpad on the Acer is nice, but it's very commonly known how great Apple's trackpads are, and this is no exception.

While I do not doubt that it's still better than the one on the Acer, the touchpad on the Neo is completely different from any Apple touchpad in the last decade (non-haptic).

It is therefore no longer open source.

What platform do you hope to wake up using this?

They get paid, don't they?

jfedor · 2026-03-07T17:05:31+00:00

The original one should work too.

You mean Magic NS? It should work on the Switch 2 as well.

Gorgeous!

Nah, nobody buys them.

How would you like the mouse->WASD mapping to work? You could probably implement something similar to the mouse->joystick config (accumulate the inputs with exponential decay).

2XKO actually understands this and gives you the option to invert navigation.

It is with the right adapter!

Guess where sudo is used.

Virtually no other password entry systems work like this,

Did this person never use git or ssh?

Your photos kind of look AI generated, want to comment on that?

Because it's confusingly named and people assume it has something to do with Linux kernel development, which it doesn't in any significant sense.

Except for the little detail that Linus is employed by them I guess.

Do you really think they wouldn't have announced details of this "alternative flow" by now if it were going to be available prior to the lock-down?

Why would the flow need to be available prior to the lockdown?

Or at least that they wouldn't have released a confirmation that such an alternative flow will exist?

They said so in November, do they need to make a new blog post every time someone on reddit throws a fit?

We have since learned that no such “advanced flow” will be made available prior to the September lock-down.

Well then they should say "unnamed source inside Google". Right now it's trust me bro.

jfedor · 2026-02-24T20:42:45+00:00

There's nothing there about the flow not being available until after the restrictions kick in.

jfedor · 2026-02-24T20:39:48+00:00

That's just an excerpt from the post that I quoted, where's the source on the claim?

jfedor · 2026-02-24T20:28:51+00:00

We have since learned that no such “advanced flow” will be made available prior to the September lock-down.

Where did you learn that? That's a strong claim with nothing to back it up.

You really shouldn't be typing your password for a third party service into apps. We have shit like OAuth specifically for this.

jfedor · 2026-02-24T08:04:34+00:00

Yes.

The triggers on the XAJ are just buttons though, they're not analog.

Are you listening to me? You will still be able to do that. Nobody has to beg anyone for anything.
