Lauren WeinsteinWhen it looks like you're writing an encrypted message but that's only because you started typing with your fingers homed on the wrong keys.
Analog AI@lauren 😂. I so love the invention of the little bumps on "f" and "j" (for US key layouts).
@Retreival9096 I was about to say, sometimes this happens because those two nubs have worn down.
@lauren I'm not good to my keyboards. They usually die from other things than the little bit of wear each time I press the letter or verify I'm on home. But I do sometimes manage to wear off the text on the top of the keys.
@Retreival9096 The text is always wearing off my (cheap) keyboards fairly rapidly. The one I'm using right now is at least 2/3 bare. Doesn't bother me. The most valuable single class I took in my educational career was touch typing in Junior High. Seriously. Though at the time, my idea was to make it easier to do term papers, I never imagined I'd spend my entire career at keyboards all day long.
@lauren Ditto, although I took mine primarily because my mom (who had worked as a typist and editor) insisted I did so. I didn't have the foresight to think of term papers. (I'm guessing she did, though.)
