If you feel like it, tell me the first random astronomy thing that comes to your mind 👀

Oh, I am already on Plasma 6.7, it updated to that maybe around a week ago or so! That long press is at least more streamlined that the Compose key, so that’s something! Good to know, thank you a bunch, I didn’t know about that feature :)

I have the original Halo75 (not the V2) which sadly doesn’t support QMK/VIA yet. I remember there was some dedicated app to configure the keyboard (NuPhy Console maybe?) but I don’t know if it’s worth trying to get that to work on Linux and that seems to be basically abandoned/obsolete

Thank you for your answer!

1. I had already tried that before but forgot to mention it, in Mac mode it flips the function/media key behavior as expected; in Windows mode, it does nothing (the function keys still always act like media keys, no matter what)
2. Not quite sure what that would do, maybe I’m misunderstanding you, that seems to just type the angle brackets that are on the layout in Windows mode and nothing in Mac mode
3. I just tried that, and while it does work, it is very unintuitive to me (instead of just Alt+Q to get an ä, it’s now <Compose>, followed by Shift+’ to get a double quote, and then a/o/u to get the umlaut. That would be suboptimal for me at best, but I’ll keep it in mind as a backup solution

I’ll keep looking for and trying some more options :)

Well, that was a painful watch. Constant overly dramatic music and sound effects, surprisingly little actual engineering talk, the same handful of B-roll shots and transitions over and over again, Shell executives patting themselves on the back. And the same “they had to turn to the past” for every challenge they encountered…

The editing felt like I was watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares, not an engineering documentary.

In case you missed it in the article, the transfer speeds are mentioned just two paragraphs prior to the one you cited:

Over the next three to four years, Kazansky said, SPhotonix aims to improve the data transfer speed of its technology from a write time of 4 megabytes per second (MBps) and read time of 30 MBps to a read/write speed of 500 MBps, which would be competitive with archival tape backup systems.
