Ok, dang, you finally got me. Those backplates are amazing. Feels like there's too many options but that's what the keeb land is. Think I'll have to grab one of these. Two if I have the funds. Bravo.

I find the lack of Southpaw-layout keyboards to be blasphemous!

Then they flash these random privacy policies at you a few hours into usage, after the initial setup.

My guess is they hope you gloss over it, and never turned them off, just thinking they were part of some app.

Soldering seems pretty daunting but it's actually not as hard as you think, especially when it comes to just soldering keyboard pcbs. Soldering stuff like diodes or doing handwiring is a lot more daunting, to me at least but it seems that with enough practice that should be fine as well (but atm I'm still not that level I feel)

Thank you for the video recommendation! I've watched it just now, the lady made it seem very easy! I wonder if I'll get the hang of it quickly. Guess I'll have to find out!

Pangea keyboard will be south paw and ISO fellow human  :cool:

Thank you! I've looked at them and they seem very promising! With that price tag, though, perhaps I'll buy a kit (if my wallet allows for it!) and keep it for an "endgame" build!
If I am not mistaken, it looks like the ISO version will only be available with a solder-only PCB (which would make sense, as I've observed that many solder-only PCBs allow for many different layouts at once), which at my current skill level would be quite a terrifying ordeal considering the value of such a 'board!

It's not that I'm worried about adding the biometrics, it's that I'm actively being monitored to such extent. [/size][/color]

ah true didn't see that. I don't think I got any notifications that seemed like they were monitoring what I did, Just the standard stuff like notifying for security updates and like telling you to backup photos. Maybe it's because I didn't put the biometrics in. Wouldn't be surprised if google was monitoring people like that, they love that data.

I didn't have to put my fingerprint or face id on my pixel, Just a passcode. I generally don't put those things on them, but that's superstition on my part, since both fingerprint and face id are both stored locally on the device from what I know, so they can't access that data remotely.
Putting my comment from what's bothering you here as well.

Just got a pixel fone, man guys, these things are kinda invasive. It's digging into your mind and trying to connect you to the matrix.

Was having trouble with the unlock button, and after a bit, it sends you an alert, having trouble with the fingerprint scanner, try adding your face for face unlock.

This thing is measuring and monitoring everything.
