LW? LimeWire? LessWrong? Luftwaffe? The deprecated chemical symbol for Lawrencium??
Americans sure love their acronyms.

Dumbest shit I've heard this week.
Switches that last forever would be interesting. Subscription models and sw updates for a mouse are the very opposite of interesting. I'd pay not to have either.
Old news. They already fixed Steam Deck compatibility.
No joking allowed here. Straight to jail.
The K6 is not programmable out-of-the-box, but it seems some people have successfully installed QMK firmware on it (with caveats); https://github.com/CanUnesi/QMK-on-K6/
If you just want to try the numpad thing out, it might be easier to use something like AutoHotKey. Here's an example of a script that uses CapsLock to toggle the numpad layer.
Of course, AHK scripts only work with the computer you've installed them to, whereas using programmable firmware will work regardless of which device you connect your keyboard to.
I do have to grind through entering a list of numbers
Have you considered a numpad layer? They're great. All of the speed and convenience with none of the wasted space or extra arm movements.
I have a numpad for both hands on my Redox :-)
You're not wrong, but your aggressive wording will surely alienate anyone who otherwise would've had a chance of learning something new or changing their mind. People don't generally respond well to snark nor a condescending tone.
And this is a real issue, because companies and fascists are good at telling relatable stories to win people to their side. If we want to have any chance at fighting back, we must utilize the same tools they're using, instead of calling people stupid and thus driving them away.
There's no big reason why remapping couldn't be done in a way that doesn't require actively running software on the host machine. QMK, the open source firmware for keyboards has had this for years. You can update your keymap with an online editor, but once it's flashed, your mappings will be remembered regardless of which computer/phone/whatever you use the keyboard with - without having to run any software besides the OS on the host.
