Made relatively quick work on this new #EC #keyboard design. Returning a bit to my roots with the first keyboard I ever designed, this is tentatively codenamed Zaphod ECBrox; a variant of the Zaphod supporting Naevy EC and Topre parts, using a XIAO controller. I've used the updated battery pad locations to make this compatible with the Nordic nRF52840 Plus and SiliconLabs MG24 XIAOs for wireless builds. For wired: the original SAMD21, and newer RP2350 and Renesas RA4M1 variants.

"De Europese Commissie verstrekt wegwerptelefoons en eenvoudige laptops aan medewerkers die naar de Verenigde Staten reizen"
"Het besluit is vergelijkbaar met maatregelen van kracht zijn wanneer een ambtenaar afreist naar China of Oekraïne."

"[...] 'maar het voelt gek om te bedenken dat dit ook nodig is in de VS', zegt Aarts."

" 'Er zijn andere onderwerpen waar de VS meer over wil weten', zegt Aarts."

[Red.: Aerdts ipv Aarts]

Continued thread

Against this light, the recent announcement of @EUCommission to invest billions in large #AI datacenters within the #EU is purely an investment into an arms race, and not one that directly serves the people.

An age-old dilemma maybe. Is the arms race needed, in order to stand a chance in a hostile world? Or is it only accelerating the cycle of doom?

What #EC CAN do, is finance the internet-we-need, besides doing the military AI dance. Have things go in parallel at least.
