I have been running with music since I started 14 years ago, and have changed headphones regularly, either because they broke, or because I needed a pair with better features. This is my review of the Powerbeats Pro 2 in the context of sport, and more specifically running.</p> <p>I bought a pair of Powerbeats Pro 2 in August 2025, and have been using them for the majority of my runs since. They mostly replaced my Sony NW-WS headphones who have the unfortunate tendency to die after a good year of use (the last pair being the WS413, following some WS623 and WS414 before that). They&rsquo;re unfortunately not produced anymore, so it was sadly time to switch to something else.</p>https://blog.qligier.ch/posts/2025-new-keyboard/Sun, 26 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://blog.qligier.ch/posts/2025-new-keyboard/<h2 id="introduction">Introduction<a href="#introduction">#</a></h2><p>My current keyboard is a nice mechanical keyboard, the Roccat Ryos MK Pro, with a Swiss-French layout. I have been using it for years, and I am very comfortable with it, but its backlight is starting to fail, and I am looking for a replacement.</p> <p>As a long-time user of the Swiss-French keyboard layout, I never expected to fall in love with a keyboard that fundamentally challenged my typing comfort zone. The NuPhy Field75 caught my eye with its sleek design and mechanical precision, but there was one significant hurdle: it was only available in the ANSI layout, a stark contrast to my familiar ISO Swiss-French configuration.</p>
