Nanoraptormore keyboards should have obtuse parts. things that aren't needed. switches that will never be touched.
num lock. static lock. try. try not. F15. unpipe and unpipe 2.
Mike [SEC=OFFICIAL]@NanoRaptor keys reserved for when you see a good post.
Elias Mårtenson@mike @NanoRaptor oh, the Sun keyboard. I have to admit props wasn't used very often. But right below that you have the copy and paste keys. Why we have to live with control-c like rubes I will never understand.
Magnus Ahltorp@loke @mike @NanoRaptor Someone thought Microsoft’s already bad copying of copying was worth copying even worse.
Claude@loke on the FR azerty keyboard, we have a dedicated key for the letter ù. It is used in exactly ONE WORD in French. @mike @NanoRaptor
@switch @mike @NanoRaptor now I'm curious, what word is that, and how in earth did it end up on the keyboard? I suspect the story about that is only available in french.
@switch @mike @NanoRaptor I see, so presumably it was seen as common enough? Perhaps they should have made the button just emit that word. 😀
bhtooefr@mike @NanoRaptor I may have had a Type 5 keyboard with “(Mad)” sharpied on the Props key in the past
Josh Justice@mike @NanoRaptor who needs to press F??
