I hate vi shortcuts because they never take non-qwerty keyboard distributions into account and it is unpredictable whether they'll follow position or letter and shortcuts of webpages aren't remappable.
And I hate arrow key shortcuts because they don’t take Raphael into account.
If you use a non qwerty keyboard you are a psychopath :p
Did you forget non English countries exist?
Lass mich mal überlegen.... mmhhh.. ja, das ist mir total entfallen. Wie konnte ich nur? /s
Just to cut to the chase, insulting people is not endearing or cute. Is just insulting. There's nothing cutesy about insulting half the world population. I don't give a fuck what you think about other's usage of alternate keyboard layouts. I care about my health, you can go kick rocks somewhere else.
Just to cut to the chase, your own personal feelings on a thing don’t define everyone else’s experience, so don’t say things like “nobody likes your jokes”.
I do, and did. Stop speaking for me.
Injecting yourself in a day old conversation to defend calling people psychopaths as an excuse for comedy. I don't even have to say how much I don't care about your opinion.
Hi snowflake, I'm dad.
I changed away from qwerty and now my wrist pain is gone. I get this is meant to be funny but for real, don't be afraid to rethink old behaviors. It didn't take that long and the benefits are great (for me).✌️
The couple of months of frustration needed to learn Dvorak were totally worth it, even with the keyboard layout issues I've had to deal with since then, like remembering to switch if a game doesn't automatically remap their keys for dvorak or finding out how to switch layouts when MS has yet again changed where the option is.
Better comfort, plus an extra layer of security vs people watching what you type to guess a password. Plus some potential to trick keyloggers that use raw keyboard input but don't consider alternate layouts, though that's a pretty easy flaw to correct it they do realize why it all looks like a jumbled mess.
I went full steam ahead down the keyboard nerd rabbit hole for a little while and ended up with a split matrix board that I can fully remap to how I like so I never have to worry about windows and I can make a button toggle to qwerty for games. Obviously that's a bit more than what most people need or are willing to do, but I love it, I actually enjoy using a keyboard now.
I got rid of my wrist pain by using a Kinesis Freestyle 2 keyboard with the tilt set to 15 degrees
well - at least one person got it ;) And of course, I am all for posture improving / health preserving setups
