Congrats you've unlocked extra hard mode, we removed the backspace and delete keys from all layers
Yes! I never liked typing the letters in the left column, now it's not possible!
I just copy and paste them from Wikipedia
Where do you copy the A from to get to Wikipedia?
From here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A?wprov=sfla1
Ahh, but that still needs you to type an A... 3 actually. What's your real source of A's huh???
I have it bookmarked for q, a, z on my toolbar. Just had to suffer googles autocorrect once to get the wikipedia page
Who needs Q, Z and, erm, A, anyway? Nobody!
How did you even type those characters?!
What looks like left sided mods of esc, tab, shift are in fact q, a, z. Esc is q and w together, tab is a and s, shift is if I hold down Z.
Why would I choose to do this? To get me to use my pinkies more for normal typing. On a 40% (which is my normal keyboard) I use only the three larger fingers, which is a bad habit if speed is your aim.
This keyboard has no time for questions.
It’s a good thing it has dual spacebars, or else this board would be seriously flawed.
Indeed, multiple spacebars is what really makes these types of boards work. I like having four of them personally.
You rang?
This is sexy. I need details.
While a 1u spacebar may sit on the council we will not grant it the rank of master
Its for academic purposes, makes double spacing easier
