Codex Micro

on one hand...this looks cool/teenage engineering-esque. on the other...engineers have been infantilized forever now but this is a new level. it feels like my career has been dwindled down to ... what? a few colors and like 5 buttons? reminds me of something out of idiocracy a bit. just need a button that orders a nice juicy hamburger for me during my lunch break.

but jokes aside, I suppose you can look at this being sort of like a numpad in addition to your main keyboard so I see the point of this gimmicky thing

It's not clear why this physical object is a better solution to the problem than, say, a window on your screen. Feels like more of a hobby project than something that provides $230 of value.

Looks cool. I’m looking for a macro pad with a little LCD that’s Mac and Linux compatible.

This looks like it has LEDs but not a screen.

Any experience with https://www.eezbotfun.com/ or recommendations for something similar?

Looks fun, but I don't quite understand this product:

  - Do the buttons map to configurable skills / prompts?
  - Is it meant to be used remotely with some independence (like codex remote), or is it a peripheral like a trackpad?

Presentation is not clear to me. How is it superior to using my keyboard?
