that is a better keyboard than any mechanical

mechanical keyboards have shit typing feel, membranes have this smooth, refined action and they feel like an actual tool whereas mechanicals feel like a kindergarten toy for kids. also mechanicals feel like they could break at any moment. membranes can withstand punishment and harsh conditions if need be, they are like an ak-47, a tool that simply works and gets the job done. no serious work was ever done with a mechanical keyboard.

That's insanely... cheap. Why not just spend some money on something that's more comfortable?

Hold both shift keys with your pinkies. While holding them, type "THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS OVER THE LAZY DOG" and post results.
If you're missing letters or spaces, your keyboard is garbage.

What kind of retarded typing test is this?

n-key rollover was just made up by Big Key to sell their overpriced keyboards

why aren't there cheap keyboards I can program macros to the PCB with?

I'm going full bore on that ruthless creamy build right now. It's got that prehistorical weight mod harvested from ancient greek constructions. Unleash the ghost of J. Robert Thockenheimer when I apply the ping obliteration mods. Nuclear levels of thock. A single actuation on this shit and you lose control of your faculties. I've got that arcane nefarious build, mathematically unviable concoction for those frankenswitches. This shit will land you in the infirmary.

You might need to press two keys at once, but you sound particularly stupid so don't worry about it.
>>
>>101226485
Membranes are cheap and shit. They more easily succumb to physical stress and inevitable debris. Their only advantage is being cheap.
>>101226665
n-key rollover is only useful for keyboard gayming, no serious typists or programmer is going to try more than 3 to 4 simultaneous keystrokes. You will rapidly develop RSI.

I have some pain in my right hand so try to use left hand for most stuff. Only when shit gets really intense and there is no room for error I escalate to right hand

I have been using a computer my whole life and I am now in my mid 30s. I also spent a year as a cashier before entering into the Army and doing even more crap to my body to injure it. I found the biggest thing that helps alleviate and even cured my carpel tunnel syndrome was posture and position. You don't want to put any pressure on your wrist while typing. I have my chair's arm positioned just slightly behind the desk where my elbow pivots off it, so that my hand is free to move around. I had hand pain in my early 20s, but I figured out right quick what the problem was, and it was putting pressure on the wrist.

>>101228559
Even ps/2 keyboards could do that, not that you would know. And even the shittiest usb keyboards can typically do 6 keys at once.
>>
>>101228798
All of my PS/2 keyboards have 2KRO, although it's probably by design, because they're from the 80s. All of them are row/column keyboards.

Ok. Seems linked to mouse in my case

Did you just try to add validity to your damage control by namedropping PS/2? This is low even for you. And it's hilarious how personally offended you are, as if that anon invented that test or something.
Sort yourself out, Nancy, you're a mess.

You keep posting this, you retarded niggermonkey, without knowing what Redditspacing is. It's 2 newlines. TWO. PRESSING THE RETURN KEY ISN'T FUCKING REDDIT SPACING. You however, have in your very own post, Reddit spaced. Go back, please, I beg you. Also the picture you keep posting seems to be pro Reddit spacing.

These are the reason I even bothered to try out mechanical keyboards. Holy shit who the hell would buy the literal worst membrane keyboard available? I'm having flashbacks to school and suddenly not being able to type without my autism flaring up because of how shit it felt to touch the keys. I'm in my fucking 30s and I remember this shit. What the fuck--OP and by extension anyone else in this thread who's made an argument for a DELL keyboard specifically.
