If they are loose enough sometimes I do the zipper first, otherwise I do the button first to make the zipping easier.

I'm starting to think that when an American says salsa it means one specific kind of sauce.

The full keyboard of an Olivetti Linea90

Here is a detail of the F key

I don't know if the images will load properly, I'm in Spain and the internet connection is still patchy.

This game is called cavall fort (strong horse) in my language.

The lettera 22 I can assure you doesn't have the bump because I have one, the same goes for any other Olivetti I have.

The most modern typewriter I can think of is the IBM wheelwriter, in the pictures I can't see any bump but I can't find pictures with high enough resolution to be sure.

That was my first and only thought.

Let them figure it out, those machines are quite smart. If they come up with something let me know, I might be interested.

Advertising is a communication technique to bring attention to something.

You are mostly talking about commercial advertising, which is still not technology.

Where did you find that definition of technology?

I don't think so, unless one single brand used them and no one else for the next 40 years.

Electric IBM typewriters from the 90s with keyboards that we would recognise today as a computer keyboard still didn't have dimples.

I asked a friend with a bigger collection of typewriters to let me know if he notices the bumps on any of them.

Now I'm curious about when the dimples were introduced and what was the first device to use them, I just took a look to my collection of typewriters and none of them have dimples.
