obsolete relic from a forgotten time that is singlehandedly holding keyboards back
>>107373358>real keyboardvs>neutered nu-keyboardreal one, please.>holding keyboards back?are you a girl or why are your shoulders so narrow you can't use a normal keyboard?
>weak bait that will still get a hundred replies because this board is retarded
>>107373358Why yes, caps lock most certainly is all that. Thanks for sharing.
>>107373358Cool story tranny% fag I'm still not paying $200 for a standalone numpad.
>>107373358only trannies still use numpads
Anyone who hates numpads and calls them tranny is a self hating projecting tranny.
I don't excel or math that often, but when I do I fucking love the num pad. Even for quick math you pull up calc and pump that bitch full. Mathing feels good. What kind of person hates mathing?
I like to have mor key on my keyboardthe more key the betterI wish I could have one with everything and never use alt code anymore
>>107373358Did you make the picture in Word? The circle misses the stagger completely.
>>107373358Hey look, another keyboardlet cope thread and support group.
>>107373846We're only mildly retardred thank u.
>>107373358There's literally no use case for a numpad unless you're an accountant t. accountant
>>107373358I use it everyday. Never by a keyboard without it

i need it for my roquelikes!
>>107373358If you slice your dick off, you may as well slice off your numpad to go with it.
>>107374544>I don't excel or math that often, but when I do I fucking love the num pad. Even for quick math you pull up calc and pump that bitch full. Mathing feels good. What kind of person hates mathing?I guess we can smoothly blend over into calling you some kind of wage-slave.But yes, being productive in excel (or/and math) certainly is more fun with a numb pad.Not that OP likely cares about being productive...
>>107373358>>107374485tell em
>>107375194>Programminglol wut
>>107375544typing numbers you nigger
>>107373358i use it daily. get fucked
>>107375544>he holds shit + 8 gay.
>>107373358Keyboards are still dominant.touchscreen is a problem.handheld device size is a problem.There is technology available to make these keyboards like 3x better.
keyboard needs to feel comfortable for the user to press tip and tap.combination keys are evil. ctrl + x, ctrl + v is actually terrible to learn, those commonly used shortcuts by experts if displayed on screen would be fantastic for new users. Quickly their experience would improve.I love the clunk feeling of the keys, i know that i have hit the button without even looking at it. This is correct design. The keyboard could be on 1 touchscreen like apple phones, but I don't like this design personally.
There is an advancement of tech that is only possible in windows but would unironically help apple and android more.
>>107373358You are right though, those keys are completely useless practically from a programming perspective.Simplifying the keyboard to be universally useful instead of using hardware initiated mechanisms.There is some keyboards which have hardware initiating keys and although those are a completely valid way to do things, they aren't developed.Microsoft keyboard is still the most economical option for an effective input device. Along with Microsoft mouses.Measuring all the benchmarks from durability, price, effectiveness, feel, still makes this simple tech just absolutely fantastic.The advancement in tech for all those benchmarks comes at the expense of price, with an actual luxury keyboard which does do the improvements to the user's experience.
To get the improvements from the keyboard for a luxury keyboard would require a screen for each key or a shared screen which can have a custom display, but still feel good for the user's fingers and still fluently be pressed in the keyboard. Then a reduction on the keyboard size for keys that are not commonly used will produce a much better feel at a higher price.Using a universally good font like Berkely Mono would just be amazing, then it is possible to change fonts on the digital display of the keys, but would they last the same length in durability? If taking the touchscreen tech from iphones, then yes.
A reduction of the keyboard size can be acheived by removing unneccessary keys, the numlock keys being removed would help improve user experience.
>>107373358Eat shit, 62-key cvckboarder!
>>107373358What do you jeets gain from posting endless ragebait threads?I can't imagine you make money doing this, so what's the goal here?Is it really that boring over there?
>>107375834I think there are some extremely expensive keyboards which have a screen in each key, though I don't really see the use case. I mean you're not going to be spending much time at all actually looking at your keyboard, so any benefits you could get from the screens are going to be rather fringe I think.Buttons with screens are great but more for a macro pad kind of use case, like the Stream Deck devices or whatever. You simultaneously get a macro button but it can also display some form of state / status information (for example: the microphone mute button shows whether the mic is muted or not).
>>107375687they should make it a full calculator desu.
>>107375657ive never needed to type long strings of numbers like an accountant while programming. even then, if youre not hitting math operators and enter repeatedly in between the numbers, the number row works fine once youre good at it>>107375687but anon shift+8 is faster

>>107375148i right click copyright click pastepress numpad enter with the edge of my palm or my wrist or my forearmall without having to remove my hand from my penis or my mouseyour keyboard is a dainty little gay and retarded piece of shit
>>107373358>posted from my iphone at starbucks
Hey mods can you make this faggot flair his gay posts so I can filter it
>>107373358Yeah. Even if you use a numberpad a lot it's in the worst place, better getting an external one to put on the left side.
>>107373358Imagine begging for less keys, what an autistic retard
The whole keyboard is literal 18th century typewriter design. There are better keyboards these days.
