Glad to know I'm in the clear with my little 40%. Or is my mental so disordered that its come full circle back to an actual keyboard?

[–] kwarg@mander.xyz 5 points 6 days ago

No you don't

I literally will not ever daily use a keyboard if it doesn't have a number pad.

Any time I'm forced to temporarily use anything without a num pad I feel like I'm driving a car that's missing half it's steering wheel or something. It just feels wrong.

I downsized a while back due to switching to a smaller desk, and it does feel weird.

[–] MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 week ago

I can input lots of numbers very fast without looking down with a num pad. I cannot do that with the number row. I have to look down at some point and it's much slower.

I spent 30 years thinking someday I'd start using the number pad and then finally gave up. I like having the typing part centered more.

You have left out galaxy brain giant IBM model M. (Not more keys, but thicc keys.)

It's not just the size. It's also the way the sound of typing will bother everyone else in the room.

How about the superior 122 key Model F

[–] don@lemm.ee 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

“To use this feature, simply press the F213 key.”

(unfolds paper keyboard map)

(moves finger around for five minutes searching)

Ah, okay. There it is. (tap)

While I love my full-sized keyboard, respectfully - who cares. The whole idea of a PC is the freedom to use whatever you want.

Keyboards, controllers, speech to text, a wii-mote, literal bananas/bread, eye/blink trackers, whatever suits you best. Insisting there's a best device for everyone doesn't change people's minds and just leads to hostility when we should be glad more people are using the device that makes them happy. One day you might be one of them when your circumstances or preferences change.

A keyboard without a numpad is like a cock without a foreskin.

Stupid as fuck, but some people don't know any better

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

That analogy is a work of art. So casually out of pocket

Get a larger desk. No way I'm typing numbers not on a keypad

I don't need the numpad. But no function keys? That's insane.

sorry but I agree. numpad masterrace. say no to degenerate keyboards.

[–] Soapbox1858@lemm.ee 24 points 1 week ago (6 children)

I have a full-sized and a 96%. I don't know how people live without a numpad. Even my laptop has a numpad. I don't do excel shit. But at work I have to enter alot of phone and CC numbers. At home I use the numpad for rating photos when sorting and importing them.

[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

I don't know how people live without a numpad

Simple, they don't need to do all those specific things you use yours for!

Long live the numpad!

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I went from a 100% membrane to a 60% mechanical, then a ~63% (think the 60% one but ONLY with extra arrow keys) then to a tenkeyless minus some of the useless keys, now to a full tenkeyless one

Here's what I have. Honestly it's perfect.

I was a cashier, then a bookkeeper during the time when both heavily used the "10-key" and got really fast at touch typing numbers. Not as fast now, but I would be absolutely lost without it for spreadsheets, calculations, etc. I wouldn't even consider a keyboard without one!

I have a split 40% because I type for a living and normie keyboards destroy my wrists.

[–] AnimalsDream@slrpnk.net 15 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I've been moving toward preferring full keyboards, but I wish it were more normalized for them to put the numpad on the left side.

I’m gonna catch some heat…. But I gotta speak my truth - this is all I need. I game, I program, I have 2 function keys that change the layout and provide access to any keys not physically present.

[–] Sarcophagus@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If I could I would have two tiers and pedals like an organ master

[–] Daeraxa@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No pedals but how about the Hyper7 R4?

[–] Sarcophagus@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Beautiful! Thank you!
