The batteries in my Logitech wireless trackball and keyboard last several months to more than a year. The keyboard in particular lasts really long. I have these on my work computer, so they are getting heavy use.

“No Country for Old Men” feels like a movie from a previous era.

Yeah, well, you know, that’s just like, uh, your opinion, man.

I use Element. I’ve tested a few others but have stuck with Element.

I also use Beeper, which at its core is just a Matrix client with some pre-packaged bridges for common services (including SMS, MMS, RCS messages). You actually do create a Matrix account for it, and I have tested messages between Element and Beeper though it has limited features.
