But its either just sending retarded keycode combos to the OS (most universal) or something less compatible, that either requires the OS to support it, typically via some configuration, or some custom software on the computer to translate it to an action.

We got all the retarded extra media keys in the 90s like "EMAIL" and "INTERNET" but we didn't get a goddamned undo button

European here. I specifically avoid buying local layout keyboards and always look for one with US English layout. Anything other than that is a meme. Also, if you use English, the Z in QWERTZ becomes Y and you can use it the same way as non Germans do. Also, think QWERTZ is bad? See what they used to have in Latvia.

It's the deformed mutt claws that can't reach keys. That's why they need a long Shift key as well, instead of having two keys there. I have one half a keyboard for gaming that came with a long Shift and it's worn out from one side to be all shiny while the other end of it is unused. I clearly don't need it to be long. Having two keys AND a big fat Enter that you can find even with your eyes closed is infinitely superior to ANSI.
