the one annoying thing about my new laptop is that my keyboard only works when you plug it into a USB port, and not when you accidentally jam it into an ethernet port

FUCK did it again
that's it, I'm designing a RJ45 keyboard
@foone@digipres.club USB was a mistake, just as PS/2. We should be using DIN and DB9 plugs to this day!
@foone@digipres.club did you try the HDMI port?
@foone@digipres.club Hummm - this piques my curiosity whether anybody has made a keyboard that actually connects to the ethernet port. The kbd would need to run a full tcp stack and the computer would need a driver to support that setup, but if there was a proper "keyboard over ip" setup, your keyboard could be anywhere in the world and still work with your computer...
@SvenGeier@mathstodon.xyz @foone@digipres.club The Raspberry Pi 400 and 500 could work as an ethernet-connected keyboard.
@RueNahcMohr@infosec.exchange I'm gonna make that work one of these days. gonna make an HDMI keyboard
@SvenGeier@mathstodon.xyz @foone@digipres.club use zeroconf/APIPA, send the raw keyboard (/dev/input/event0) data from the Pi as broadcast, have a listener on the PC that pipes it into /dev/uinput or what it's called.
