Hi friends; tech returns! What do you make of a. the unsual tech and b. my cat?! 😆Links below+ watch this video next for more Desk Accessory joy next here: th-cam.com/video/2kSRK5XDVJU/w-d-xo.html
Have to be the one but you have a typo on your website:
“Hi, Its Simon! I’m collect the best ideas…”
@@blueberryadept6519 ok thanks! ha
I fell into the mechanical keyboard trap and there is absolutely no way id go back to a regular keyboard
Great video, loved it ! Please make more indeed
The keychron is too expensive for what you get...if you don't care about via/qmk compatibility, then go for an akko which are normally at least 50 % cheaper.
I know it’s a tech channel. I watch it all the time. And it’s a strange ask. But I love the astronaut shirt. Where could I find it?
Haha love that, thanks for asking. It’s from a brand called Percival… but I found it in a local charity shop! :)
Wituka
interesting devices, the ring is something i could use so thank you for mentioning it!
Yeah, I wouldn’t have bought one I don’t think: but after they sent it and I tried it: I think it’s a great investment! This in my view is the best quality & value option out there at moment for a smart ring. :)
On the Boox, I'm currently looking into the Nova Air2, specifically because I can read Kindle, Nook, and any other e-reader software, I can draw with it, but mostly because I should be able to run Notion on it. In that way, I can switch to it for my evening reading, planning, and shut down, but without the blue screen issues keeping me away. That kindle can't run Notion is the thing that stops me buying it
Nice: yeah it is nice for this use case I think: and Notion works nicely on it. :)
A question: are these super high keyboards are good for your wrists without a wristband? I can see that your wrists are 5 cm above the table just to type - it looks weird and feels like it will strain your wrists quite a bit.
I am peome to ear infections and I love my openrun shokz. I use them all day at work and forget I’m wearing them.
8:00 I love the four macro keys, I use Discord for role-play games and semi a dedicated push to talk button. Also play shadow run so I’m able to have a ¥ symbol. I also also have a dash (-) and ™. So I’m very happy.
This is fun, I own many of these things for my work setup at home.
I have the Logi Lift for traveling for work, and the large sibling the MX Vertical for my permanent setup. Handshake mice FTW.
I have AfterShokz headphones, and while they’re great, they do not play well with latest iterations of Microsoft Teams… have your mic muted during a call? The Aftershokz annoyingly beep in constantly to remind you of it.
I don’t have that particular model Boox tablet, but have the Tab Ultra - worth every penny!
I returned my shockz as didnt find they were right for me, but cool device. Go nice crew!
Thanks for sharing though I am fairly certain you are the only person I have heard pronounce Boox as box and not books. 😂 I really did find your experiences interesting and will definitely keep them in mind for my own potential tech upgrades/updates.
“Tech I didn’t expect to like” but mentions a product he returned
Eeerr… yeah: exactly! I didn’t expect to like it, tried it, I was right on that one! Ha
I mean, at the start he did pose the question:
'Did I actually like them?'
You can like something and also not think it's worth a certain price/not fit your current needs. He even explains potential use cases for it...
What is the watch that you are wearing?

No, you don't only live once.. You live everyday..
'You Only Die Once.'
I love this sentiment. 🤗 but yes - a classic turn of phrase I guess, … and as far as I’m aware I’ve been continuously alive since birth! 😜
Mucky Pup 🐶
Haha
Hmmm my cat is called pepper too!
Incidentally you can get the equivalent of a BOOX Tablet Note Air 3 C E Ink Tablet from poundland - it's a paper pad and costs far less. Thanks for the review though. I am going to stick with my old kindle and a piece of paper. I know, such a luddite.
Ah nice! Hi pepper. Ha. Well yes, you are absolutely right: don’t waste your money if it’s a waste!… obviously! 😂 ps. I also recommend that a sundial is cheaper than a smart watch and I believe you can run most of the Android App Store on the back of a napkin if you focus! 😜👊 serious, thou: if you actually would want a tablet, I’d go for a refurbished 2018 ipad for the same money. Thanks for watching and for the dry comment!
@@BetterCreating I was kidding around of course 😀Thanks for the tip about the Ipad. You know, I am on the fence about whether android or the apple IOS is better. I suppose each has it's own pros and cons.
Man you need a palm rest! My hands are dying if I work like you😢 nice content thanks for it!🤘🏻
😂 thanks pal. Palms feel fine!
Where did you get your desk? It looks like, but not very ergonomic...
yes my dude. when did math become plural!
No - when did it become Singular! In AMERICA! Haha. - nice on e.
Short for mathematicS !!
Tablet is lagging so much.
Yes, that’s true, at times there was a little lag, for the most part I’ve found it to be good.
Can I be your video editor? Available for (freelance/monthly) basis 🙋♀️ btw, loved your video and setup
Manifesting my dream setup similar to as shown in video 💯🌸
Talking Amazon......
I really recommend the aftershockz you have there is a new model that has no band on the back i love these headphones and i love the new and old models
interesting - will check out the band-less ones online
