Peter CockI’m belatedly getting into this geeky stickers on laptops thing - there are some on the outside too, but here’s my attempt at an <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ErgonomicKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ErgonomicKeyboard</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/KeyboardLayout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KeyboardLayout</a> on my Japanese <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/MacBook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MacBook</a> 🇯🇵 ⌨️

kjuh :antifa:🇺🇦🇪🇺🇩🇪🌻Are there any modern mechanical keyboards with a numpad that has cursor/navigation layered, but no additional cursor keys? Similar to the original PC/XT layout? I can’t seem to find any, which baffles me, because otherwise keyboard nerds seem to love layering. But either there’s a numpad PLUS redundant additional cursor keys or no numpad. Why not the best of both worlds??? <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/MechanicalKeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MechanicalKeyboard</a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/Keyboards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Keyboards</a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/KeyboardLayout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KeyboardLayout</a>

Sebastian Hahn 🟧Hmmmmmm, am I the only one to wonder why computer keyboards have put the „0“ to the far right and the „1“ to the far left?

bonoStupid Apple Keyboard layout! :meowNeutral: I much prefer the Windows one.So, we don’t want “CTRL”; let’s rename it “command.” Okie-dokey. And let’s have a “control” button also! :blobcatgoogly: Knock off the “alt” button and have “option” instead! Oh wait, people may get confused. We’ll write both names on the keys for clarity! 😌And let’s draw confusing icons on each of these keys for easier identification! :akko_shrug: And while we’re at that, how about knocking off a few important buttons people are used to, like “Home”, “End”, “PageUp”, “PageDown”.Lastly, do people really need a button for Backspace and another for Delete? We’ll get them to adjust with just one! 😉<a class="hashtag" href="https://nixnet.social/tag/applekeyboardlayout" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AppleKeyboardLayout</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://nixnet.social/tag/keyboardlayout" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KeyboardLayout</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://nixnet.social/tag/apple" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Apple</a>Edit: Okay, I was just informed that Apple got there first. Their keyboard layout is older than others’. So, my bad! :) Still, I prefer the other one! :meowGiggle:
