there are no bad questions, only bad answers, so let me ask you a question
what do you mean by "what"? should i be more clear? provide more details? or you simply do not understand the subject and therefore need a digestible short summary?
let me know, i'm here to help spread the knowledge

Some people in the US are seeing their net worth rapidly shrinking and they are mad about it
The west pays the price of their stagnation, they lost
The US banned China's 5G in 2016, we are in 2023 and they still haven't developed their own 5G
Let alone the upcoming 6G being tested in china already [1]
And that's an example in just one industry..
Where are the people who demonized cash less societies, big data and surveillance state? they said it was a bad thing, yet we are trying to replicate it as it's proven to be very effective!
"China bad" narrative shows its weakness, who was right?
Why are the people who are responsible of the current situation still holding the power and still get all the fruit of the society? They should be all replaced before it becomes too late
Western Civilization is slowly dying

use articles as reference, not as ultimate truth
the main point of that one was the question "where does Ukraine gets their weapon from"
then you have the leaked audio from the US government who clearly was preparing the coup
cross-referencing articles should be common sense
> The completely unrelated pieces about Iraq and Poppy Bush, even less so.
It is all linked, again use articles as reference and history books as data
Napoleon, Hitler? Soviet Union? should ring bells, all of them wanted to push East
Why does the US also want to push NATO East?

Finally an evolution of the keyboard
People hated on Apple for the touch bar, but this is the natural evolution of the keyboard, why stick to fixed physical keys when you can have them digitalized to be context aware
The problem will be the price
Mechanical keyboard market already is a scam where 90% of products are greatly overpriced, that will not encourage them to offer a reasonable price unfortunately
EDIT:
The keyboard will cost between US$299 - $350 after discounts for pre-orders with a retail price of US$450.
Yeah, the price of a console-tier GPU, way too overpriced to be a successful product
