Having modifiers work in a standalone mode for dual-use like Caps=Control|Escape
So I may have to edit both the USB and the Bluetooth keyboard firmware (cf https://hohlerde.org/rauch/en/elektronik/projekte/tpkbd-fix/ and https://github.com/lentinj/tp-compact-keyboard/issues/32) but TBH I'm crazy enough to attempt that and the rewritten dual-key code gives me the perfect opportunity to finish this!
- This wireless keyboard is so good. Best purchase I made in a long time.

How to install WiFi drivers for NixOs?
I found this GitHub link that contains instructions on how to compile the driver for most distributions. However, they require usage of make install so I don't think that would work on NixOs.

The Perfect Laptop
I have the older version with the 6900HS but it’s more or less the same. I’ve run pop_os as well as fedora on it. Everything works great but you’ll have to compile the wifi driver https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.

Using my usb wifi stick?
Realtek drivers are such a PITA. Check out this guys Github: Link he has instructions on how to get the most common realtek chipsets working. Please note, kernel updates will break the drivers for all realtek workarounds and you will have to redo this after each update.
