Yesterday I had the great pleasure to attend a documentary screening and panel session where Prof. #FredericoFaggin was the guest of honour. This was organised by the #Italian Luxembourg Chamber of Commmerce and introduced by the Italian Ambassador to #Luxembourg. #Faggin invented the #microprocessor and designed the #4004 #8008 #8080 #z80 and later on via #synaptics #touchscreens and #touchpads .He is a true #pioneer

Volkswagen 👴 finally realizes that #touchscreens are about as popular as socks with sandals and decides to resurrect physical buttons. Because who doesn't love mashing buttons like it's 1999 while driving? 🚗💥 Please, VW, what's next? A comeback for the cassette player? 🎶

Finger-Nose Stylus for Touch Screens

I've installed the old #Oxygen style on #bazzite via rpm-ostree:

rpm-ostree install oxygen-cursor-themes oxygen-sounds plasma-oxygen-qt5 plasma-oxygen-qt6 oxygen-fonts oxygen-icon-theme oxygen-mono-fonts oxygen-sans-fonts plasma-oxygen

It's way better to use then Breeze for #touchscreens - i also use it on #SteamOS on my #SteamDeck

I also switched for #konsole, #okular and #gwenview to #Fedora packages. This works much better for remote volumes than the #flatpak versions:

flatpak remove okular gwenview konsole; rpm-ostree install okular gwenview konsole

🚗 Oh, #Volkswagen, in an age of #touchscreens and AI assistants, you're bringing back... knobs? 🤔 Because nothing says "cutting-edge" like a good old-fashioned button. Welcome to the #future, circa 1995! 😂

@zkrisher @esther

I have enough trouble with #touchscreens, and I'm sighted. I can't imagine how difficult it is for you.

Where I am, #retail locations are replacing their older POS #payment terminals with newer-generation ones that ditch the #keypad for a touchscreen. The pads of my fingers are thick and dry and don't activate them well; it takes 3 or 4 tries to activate each "button" press.

How on earth are the blind supposed to use these?

#UI designers need to meet real #users.
