Input Devices / How long is/was the warranty on your current trackball/mouse?
« Last post by Stupidface on Sun, 19 July 2026, 02:49:51 »

30 days?  6 months?  A Lifetime Warranty, perhaps?

[Pause for Howls of Derisive Laughter]

I suspect there are also manufacturers who offer a warranty that lasts approximately as long as it takes to break the seal on the box (ask me how I learned about that).  And I imagine there are quite a few more of these manufacturers at present than there are of the Lifetime Warranty sort.

However, the length of a "typical" warranty in 2026 is a mystery to me, which is why I ask.  Perhaps you could offer a number?

Looking forward to seeing how the project develops and what the final version ends up looking like.

So whose all playing TTRPGs these days?

I'll add, I play D&D 5.5 weekly and also DM a diff game weekly. Shadowdark once or twice a month.

I want to buy all The One Ring books and play that someday.

It's a great idea to keep free weights in your computer room. I crank out random sets all day while watching whatever on my comp.
It takes about 90 seconds to do a quick 30 reps with an ez bar or whatever, before you know it you have knocked out 150 reps for the day.

In front of PC basically 12hrs.

Do 1 set per hour.

10 shoulder fly, 10 shoulder press, 10 tricep extension.

x12 per day.


Thinking about getting another pull up bar,  there's one in the basement, but not in PC room.

Wall mount kind looks pretty gud.

Ok, so the pre-built AAKBD with Vial Configurability firmware is now available on GitHub.

The GitHub page has details and the AAKBD Vial README has even more, but TL;DR:

Almost all Vial/QMK features supported, you should not notice much of a difference, you can flash the firmware in exactly the same way, etc. In addition to that, you will get:

  • More layers
  • Real Apple Fn / Globe key support
  • Activating layers automatically based on which operating system the host computer runs
  • Extra read-only layers (use them if you want, otherwise ignore – they are free extra layers you can use but don't have to, they take no slots away from your own layers)
  • Override Num Lock / Caps Lock / Scroll Lock LED state based on which layer is active (e.g., for simulated Num Lock, or just to indicate some special layer is active by lighting something like Scroll Lock LED)
  • Persistent and improved capsense matrix calibration, debug output for it, faster capsense matrix scanning
  • PS/2 output, requires hardware mod
  • (maybe better ability to wake computers from sleep, but not sure if it's just my imagination)

YOYOYO,  This thing is $42 right now, amazon with coupon code 4YFJQUGG

No idea if it's goood, but it looks supr cool, so Heck, Tp4 will try it for $42.

Most chargers like this with a screen and readout are $100+

Talix is backed by lenovo, so you know they're communits.

20,000 is on the low side, 27,000 is the max airline allows,  close enough.

It's got a pretty cool readout with graphs
