A chord keyboard uses combinations of keys, like chords on a piano. You have fewer keys so you can type with one hand. I’m not 100% serious about it, learning curve would be horrendous. But it would be interesting to try. I used blackberry for a long time and I hate screen keyboards.
And yes, looks like I found one while looking for examples :) It’s $175 on ebay, bit expensive.
Yeah, that’s a lot of work with tools I have no idea with. Definitely a fun project but I don’t have the time.
Here’s what I want: tiny, one handed bluetooth chord keyboard.
For typing on my phone. Can someone make one?
Wake me up when you find something people will not abuse and get addicted to.

73·4 days agoMy theory is that it’s brain atrophy, not stupidity.
Americans are not stupid in the sense that they can’t learn and do things. They are perfectly capable to work in a bank, fix a car, fly a plane or be a doctor. But even if they do work as as accountant or a surgeon (like Ben Carson…) they rarely use brains for analytical thinking. They don’t have to. School is easy (you can just play sports), finding job used to be easy, buying home used to be easy, you were born into one political party and just followed it. You drive your huge car on endless highways surrounded by aesthetically sterile malls, eat your burgers, watch some football and that’s it. No need to analyze things so your brain kind of forgets how to do it.
Eventually the country split into the curious part that actually wants to study and understand things and the “stupid” part that just consumes propaganda and votes for Trump. As some point the “stupid” part became the majority. Now not everything is that easy for young people but I think it’s too late.
So they can make my TV smaller? Nice.
