Difference is, we’re not using our tongues to pry rotten food stuffs from each other’s gums.

I think either would suit you. Keep or don’t, do what feels best for you. 🙂

Put it on your CV, worth a shot.

Trump dropping them F-bombs, too! 💣💥

Always go homemade if you can. As much as possible. Premade shit is doo-doo for your body.

What’s your question?

I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that they were doing the whole “that’s an insult to children’s intelligence” bit. Still just a variation on what I already said lol.

Why are people digging into the semantics of the word “child” in this thread?

The point is that they are acting IMMATURELY. 👌

I don’t know any of these names but I bet this was a smart comment. I just know too little.

… That act like children. That’s what my point was.

Both too proud to de-escalate the situation. What the hell are they even arguing about? They’re both children in suits.

I heard he was pretty big in /c/showerthoughts.

I mean, yes. You’re right, ideally. But it’s very, very difficult in the general sense to design something that works for every human. Not even fully capable humans will agree on what the best interface is.

That’s why there are different products that cater to different people. Maybe grandma with Parkinson’s shouldn’t have a smartphone with a touch screen. 🙂👍 There are alternatives.

I’ve also noticed my kids trying to press things on my screen. Before, when they didn’t know better, they would keep accidentally scrolling a little when trying to press something, because that’s how much force trying to press something real and physical usually requires.

But you can actually see, with your own eyes, the moment as they notice how their real world experience is not useful to apply to a touch screen. They have to adapt and be extra gentle and careful when tapping to activate stuff, so at not to scroll.

That does not sound like fun. I’m sorry this is happening to you.

I’m scared that I’m developing tinnitus. It started in one ear a few days ago and won’t go away. It’s not getting worse, but also not letting up either. It comes and goes, but when it’s quiet in the room, I can hear it clearly.

No particular event has occurred for it to start, sound wise. No loud things or blasts or anything. But I haven’t been sleeping properly for a good week or so. I should try getting some proper sleep. Maybe? I dunno.

My grandma is basically deaf, and my mother’s hearing got ruined when she was subjected to a house burglar alarm. Having bad hearing is not fun. I also love music and singing and such and I really don’t want to get effed-up hearing. My coworker is also afflicted by tinnitus and has to go to coping therapy and shit. It does not sound like a fun time to have this continuing, or progressing. 😟

The end.

I am in the middle of a major transition from using regular keyboards to a more esoteric keyboard.

I have been using QWERTY and regular row-staggered keyboards my whole life. Up until now. (38 now, been using computers since I was 2 (two), and touch typing for probably 20 years at least?)

I have been using the ZSA Voyager now for about a week, which is a split keyboard, first of all. It is also column-staggered, and last but not least, I am using a different keyboard layout, namely Colemak-DH.

I have gone from about 110–120 words per minute, to about 20-35 WPM. So I’m essentially about 4x slower now than I was before the switch.

It’s… rough.

But I’ve read that a lot of people will say the same thing during something like this: the first few weeks, you’ll second-guess your choice. It’ll feel like you made a mistake. But if you persist, you’ll give your brain a chance to build new neutral pathways and create new muscle memory, and once that happens, you’ll be flying.

Regarding your own situation: one thing that I think helps with touch typing is to really look at a finger map of which fingers go on which keys, and try to type with that in mind. Also a tip I heard is that elevating your hands above the keyboard helps to be a little more accurate.

Best of luck!
