One of them is what Arrival (2016) is based on.

Yubikey advise you to buy two keys and keep one with you and one in a safe space, only used for recovery. That requires the service you use it on to allow multiple keys though, and that’s unfortunately not always the case.

In Sweden (where Mullvad has its origin) IPSs are forced to keep data on its users, see Datalagringsdirektivet. It does not apply to VPN providers.

Last summer was crazy for popular airports in Europe, with queues lasting for multiple hours just to get _to_ security. It was said that it was due to staff shortages due to layoffs during the pandemic though.

To add to that: in Sweden (which is generally pretty ok in regards to privacy and rights) ISPs are required to store traffic for 6 months, while VPN providers are not.

It feels really nice though. They are always exact and all you do is press a button, no lever action needed.

Nice! It's one of things I really wish I had a use case for just to excuse myself to own one.

How much did you spend on replacement parts?

We have that in Sweden. The problem is distributing it. Most energy in Sweden is produced up north, but the infrastructure to transfer it south is lacking which (especially this winter) is resulting in ridiculously uneven kW/h prices in our country.

Between the proprietary plugs and USB-C, we had the dark ages of micro-USB which somehow always came loose after a few weeks of use

I'm typing on an UHK v1 right now. I've been using it for a year or so and I love it. As the other commenter said is just a really high quality split keyboard with great software.

I would really recommend anyone who looks into buying one to also buy the palm rest since it's a pretty thick keyboard. I use a tenting setup and I don't think I would be able to do it comfortably without the palm rests.

A few months ago the key cluster arrived as well - it feels kind of gimmicky though since all I use it for is play/pause/next song and to switch to my chat workspace. Others might have better use for it though. The scroll wheel is nice but I'm already used to the mouse layer on the keyboard, so I seldom use it.

My only gripe is the USB-connection. The v1 uses a mini-USB connection that I felt would be the first thing to break on the keyboard (since the rest of the keyboard feels like it would outlive me), so I soldered one of those magnetic cable heads to the keyboard and bought a few cables that I have lying at every desktop I use, "mag-safe".
