I use one of those floppy plastic keyboards you can roll up and an unassuming but highly sensitive 3 button mouse (as in it just has left/right/scrollwheel). Whenever anyone asks me to use my computer to check something I'm just like sure go ahead and laugh internally.

Keyboard actually works great when you get used to it but you basically have to hit the keys dead center with good wrist posture so anyone not familiar with it basically will gently caress up their passwords roughly 100% of the time.

e: something like this for the uninitiated, tho I didn't get mine from think geek


lol we use these at work for a quiet room and they get broken all of the time. i'm pretty sure people are punching them because they are unable to type their passwords right

If there's more than one way to do a job, and one of those ways will result in disaster, then he will do it that way.
Mechanical keyboards are all or nothing. As in, no one wants to hear just one person typing super loudly.

But a newsroom from the 60s is quite nice to work in.

Anyone who spends any amount of time whining about how e-readers don't smell good or how you can't draw all over them or whatever deserve all the worst things in life and I hope they die alone and soon.

If by ''smell' you mean 'spell', then I suggest you correct the spelling on your screen using a permanent marker.

He's talking about those Luddites who poo poo all over e-readers because they don't stimulate all the senses like a book does. The ones who wax poetic about how the smell of paper and the feel of turning pages means that e-readers are cheapening the reading experience by offering only plastic tactile sensation and the colorless no-smell of death.

I still like big reference books a lot but I am kind of a Luddite about things.

Backspace is left thumb. These are modifiable

It also has two bonus USB ports! And a phone cord. I think that's for some arcane device

I'd say mine tend to last about 3-5 years and only cost like 20 bucks, I've gone through 3 since highschool. And yeah passwords were the hardest when i got my first one but it really doesn't take too long acclimating to it if you use it daily for a bit. I think there are pros and cons to it's style, it's gentle on the fingers, quiet, and it's pickyness about precision means you don't really ever fat finger things (which can be nice in games).

Also it has a numpad unlike several of the garbage keyboards itt.

I like my mechanical keyboard at home, but I don't use one at work because it would be disrespectful to my coworkers, and it's not really that big of a deal anyways.

Like, if an evil genie offered me $100 but in exchange I could never use a mechanical keyboard, I'd probably say no. But if he bumped it up to $500 I'd probably say yes.
