Noo, Wetherspoons is Pro-Brexit? That sucks, had no idea. TBF, I’m German and haven’t been in 10 years either, but my Bro studied in London for 2 years back then and I visited him 2-3 times. The Wetherspoon down the road had by far the best prices and great meal deals. Sucks that its owned by a piece of shit
used to be, but in the last couole of years Legos quality has only gone down, while the price stayed high. Lego now has the same ‘quality issues’ that the other manufacturers have at more than double the price. Lego includes ugly stickers in $500+ ‘Ultimate Collector Sets’, which is just a joke, while the competition has printed bricks in most sets these days (super cheap sets still have stickers).
Explanation: Up until 2010 LEGO had a trademark/copyright on their Bricks, but a EU Court decided that the interlocking design can’t be trademarked as a ‘functional, technical shape’. Before then, mostly incredibly cheap Chinese knockoffs existed, since then other manufacturers have been improving quality control and in some cases surpassing LEGO now.

Have you tried Wacom?
They have their own TablePCs and manufacturers make Tablet PCs with their digitizers.
There is a community made linux drivers for them, compatible TabletPCs are listed here: https://github.com/linuxwacom/input-wacom/wiki/Device-IDs#tablet-pcs
They also make touch screen monitors that start around $300 (up to thousands) that connect to any PC and should also work under Linux, afaik. Or you could get the cheap ‘old school’ tablets made from plastic that simply move and control the cursor, though they take a while to get used to, IMO.
