Is it really worth it?

At least this is the vegan option. They used to be made from cat snouts.

I think you misunderstood what people meant when they talked it being part of a pussy

Yes.

Earlier they made it using Clit.

How do they make it red though?

Thinkpads used to be quality machines, but my last two laptops broke after just a year. One was keyboard, other was mouse pad.

Is it really that hard to put quality components in parts that are physically touched a lot?

Im going for some other brand next time but they all kind of suck now it seems.

Which models?
It's not hard, but the more laptop lasts, the longer it will take before you buy a new one.
- My 2017 MacBook pro, the shittiest MacBook version of the 21rst century, functioned well and was my primary computer until a couple months ago.
I'm not that familiar with newer ThinkPads as I only ever used a L540 and a T420, but can't you just replace the trackpad or keyboard if it breaks?
- I have a X220 and a T14 Gen 2 (11th gen Intel core) and the quality is night and day. Also they introduced cheaper models like an E series, the L series and those have even worse materials or QC.
- That's not the point. A laptop should last more than a year.
- I probably can, yeah. Its just that it feels like I lose trust in a brand where such things break so easily.
  I know its not comparable, but my external keyboard and mouse has worked for probably 6 years now without a single problem. Why is it so hard to put quality components in a laptop. Seems like cost savings. And those machines are really expensive.
Frameworks are the only good worthy successor imo.
I got a framework, which is built around quality parts, repairability, and upgradeability. Theoretically it's the last laptop I will ever buy.
- I liked the concept but the reviews have not been amazing. I hope you like it, because I would love to have one if its actually good.

I prefer the nub over the track pad any day of the week.

Yes

With great sacrifice, comes great responsibility..

My wife says: Yes!

I wish I could stick one of these in my desktop keyboard.

A fully mechanical keyboard with a nub between W and S so that I can play videogames with a joystick and a mouse, for superior aiming AND moving.

Maybe I could design and print a WASD(QE) section/assembly with custom keycaps with a gap and install a nub as a mod.

I used to have a desktop keyboard with the nipple in the traditional middle of the keyboard configuration so your fingers could stay on the home row but something about it was off maybe the acceleration or something I'm sure I could've fixed it in software if I were smarter but it never just worked like the Thinkpad ones
I would be fine with just having pressure sensitive WASD keys to control my speed beyond forward and forward but faster/slower, depending on what shift does. It's insane how much a keyboard with pressure sensitivity costs tho. It might be cheaper to build my own.
- Wouldn't it be 'simple' with hall effect sensors? Those seem to be pretty commonplace nowadays.
