I used to play with the numpad. 5 was forward, 4 left, 3 right and 2 backwards. 7 was reload, 1 was crouch, 6 was jump I think.
>>719622768Makes infinite more sense than on the right.
>>719622042CoolI just steal spare keyboards from my office.
>>719621120these buttons made me rich.
>>719621120>muh boomers Obsessed
could i hypotheticlaly just take a bandsaw and chop off the numpad portion of my logitech keyboard? would the keyboard still function?
>>719623181cool what do you do for a living
>>719623231numpad salesman
where did it all go wrong with keyboards and people wanting them to smaller and smaller???
Little timmys out there buying 150 dollar circumsised keyboards while keyboard manufacturers are laughing all the way to the bank, lol, lmao
I've had a Logitech G15 for the past 14 years and recently changed it to a MX Keys.The keys are great and it feels really nice typing on it, but the automatic backlighting is fucking pissing me off. Keeps turning on by itself that piece of shit.
>>719623368>never fucking use the keys>type numbers faster on numrow>desk is just wide enough to have my keyboard, mousepad and cat's bedI don't even have the room.
>>719623368Not everyone uses those keys. Some people want the extra mouse space. I used to switch keyboards back and forth because I wanted the extra space for shooters. What I don't get is why anyone gives a shit either way.
>I buy chink peripherals every 3 months I'm actually smarter than the guy who buys something that lasts him years
>>719623385This is like laughing at someone for buying a sports car because it doesn't have two seats in the back that they never intended to use anyway.
>>719621120ayo shout out to dem lil niggs dat luv dat pin # machine.it cool tho i guess..
>>719623532>my mechanical keyboard is a sports car!Literal 'nigger bragging about his sneakers' energy.
>>719622042I have the real IBM made model M and I wouldn't recommend it for gamesYes it feels nice to type on and it's very durable but the buttons are heavy, you're not playing a fightan with this thingBought it from some hobo for $10 btw
>>719623598Not my point, but i shouldn't be surprised. Anything mentioning keyboards on /v/ is just a thread for people to be illiterate and screech about how their poverty is cool and based actually. Have fun. All fields.
>>719623532No this is more like buying a Toyota Camry without backseats for the same price as the one with backseats
>>719623465>What I don't get is why anyone gives a shit either way.We're living in times where people seek to optimise their gameplay in basically any way imaginable. Better mouse sensors, more responsive keys, macros, higher quality mousepads with much more space so they can use lower sensitivity and cut down on overshooting targets when they flick. Higher refresh rate monitors with higher resolution, better colors and contrast. All of these seemingly small things do add up to making you perform better in FPS games. If you had none of those things and you were using some $5 mouse with a piece of shit keyboard that can't even register more than 2 keys being pressed at a time on some 5 inch wide mousepad using 60hz in 2025 you're under some severe handicaps. Sure you might somehow have talent but you're fucking yourself by not investing in the hobby. You can't tell me there's a single perfomative hobby out there that doesn't involve investing money into better equipment.
I had a mech keyboard. Clickety clacking was infuriating. Back to membrane.
>>719623176Haha sameExcept i'm the head of IT
>>719622250>new old thing >it's worse than actual old thing competency crisis
>>719623814fell for blues award
>>719623814>I bought a sports car and it went fast>Hated that shit
>>719623814Membrane feels like shit to type on and there's mechanical keyboards out there that are built to be on the quiet side.
I hate that every keyboard has the numpad on the right.
>>719622250>>719623850>inconsistent key pressesinstant F tier idk what that fags smoking
>>719622042>model M shilling in 2025Boomer moment
>>719622042i am glad i dont spend money on this crap, my brother does so i had the chance to try many "good" ones, and i have yet to see one that actually justifies costing more than 50 bucksor to say it differently, not a single keyboard that was more than 50 bucks ever managed to be better than a 50 bucks or less one, and when they were, they still weren't enough for the price(20-30% better for 300% the price? LMAO)
>>719623913This is why I choose not to use numpad. I'm sitting there with my hand on my mouse. My left hand is already on the keyboard. It feels as easy to input numbers on the numrow for a short input. My hand is naturally resting over the WASD area. If it was as simple as shifting a little to the left it would feel way more comfortable.
>>719623814THIS ANON RIGHT HERE IS A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF WHAT WE CALL INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE
A mouse has tangible metrics like sensor quality, and the shape is important.Controllers are basically all about ergonomics.But a KB is a plank with keys. How much difference can it possibly make?
mechanical keyboard hate seems to unanimously come from contrarian seethingthey're not even expensive, i can get a keychron k10 he for $135 divided by what? 4 years of use at least?all my mech keyboards were so durable i switched out of preference
>>719623496i bought the 20$ cheapo keyboard im using right now back in 2016 and it still works just fine
>>719622042>>719622250I insta mute anyone with a mechanical keyboard
>>719624098I can get a cheap logitech for $20 that lasts a decade.
>>719622250>keys don't work>whole fucking keyboard doesn't work some times>it's a good keyboard tho!Insanity.
>>719623913Be the change you want to see. Introduce a keyboard with a left sided numpad.
>>719621368I'm a NEET and I don't frequently use any software that utilizes the numpad but losing it would be a great decrease in my QoL just for passwords alone and desk space is a complete non-issue. Also, I sometimes put my keyboard on my lap and a full-size keyboard fits there a lot better.
>>719624146200 dollars plus tip btw
>>719624098>they're not even expensive, i can get a keychron k10 he for $135 divided by what? 4 years of use at least?>$135 divided by what? 4 years of usethat's $33 per year, how is that "not expensive" when a <$50 KB lasts for a decade?
>>719621120I worked in a office last year and forced myself to learn numpad. Makes it way easier to type long strings of numbers like hashes in VOTV so I'm glad I did.
>>719624124Sounds like that's a skill issue with them having a dogshit microphone or leaving their mic always open.
>>719624223he's a pedantic retard that doesn't realise noise cancelling is enabled by default on most programs these days. NOTHING BURGER.
>>719624129i can get a pissed on spring mattress for cheap and sleep on it for years too but i chose a memory foam oneyou use something often you don't want it to be bottom tier garbage>>719624195AT LEAST mr esl
>>719624146there is a dude on youtube, i dont remember the name, who constantly trashes regular priced KBs for having small nearly insignifican flaws he claims "can't be ignored", yet he forgives much bigger flaws in pricier KBs that render the whole product unusable and does so with phrases like "perfection doesn't exist afterall, but we're not asking for that anyway"and the worst part is that he's completely unironic
>>719623496been using the same chink keyboard for 8 years now, same cheap fell mouse for longer and same chink bluetooth controller for 6 years (massive battery life and no drift whatsover)
>>719624090https://www.rtings.com/search up the latency of whatever you have and compare it to something like monsgeek fun60 tmr or wooting 80hethe feel of a keypress matters, hall effects bring in the benefits of custom actuation and other shit too, not to mention all the keyboards that can be easily programmed
>>719624262>AT LEAST mr esllet me do the math for you since you seem to retarded to do it on your owna $50 KB lasts for a decade, thats $5 per yearnow how many years would a $135 KB need to last to be the same value?$135 divided by $5 per year....27 fucking yearsand a KB that lasts "4 years AT LEAST" won't last fucking 27 years
>>719624527so there's no value to a keyboard beyond being able to push buttons?do you insist on sticking to your dogshit 60hz 1080p tn monitor to squeeze value out of it?
>>719624594read >>719624030 and you'll knowthere isnt a single KB above $50 that is actually worth its price, none
>>719624708>i have pressed the buttons for a few seconds and that makes me an expert
>>719622042I just bought a cheap flat keyboard, haven't had any issues with it for 10 years. keyboard autism is like audiophiles, a pointless waste of time and money
>>719621120I wonder who could be behind this post
>>719621120Me when I am permanently unemployed
>>719624223Fuck you, you will hear me perform my entire 40 keystroke combo and you will like it.
>>719624752more like i used them extensively given i get to try them for free thanks to my braindead brother who keeps buying them
>>719621120i use it for blender
>>719621120>>719621368Most people don't work as office and IT person therefore Numpad is pointless especially if you're gamer>>719623368When I needed more space for the pizza I ordered while I never used the Numpad.
Only boomers need the numpad. Us hip and with it youngsters play roguelikes with vi keys.
>>719625015considering you're nitpicking the value of a luxury good that amounts to less than half a day's work per year at worstdo me a favour and answer the monitor bitdo you insist that high refresh rates don't matter and 60hz is all you need?this'll help me understand the contrarian cope mindset
>>719622042I'll keep using my cheap keyboard and you can't convince me the opposite
>>719625228considering you're nitpicking the value of a luxury good that amounts to less than half a day's work per year at worst i heavily doubt you actually even understand the first thing about them
Why is numpad good for work? I already know where all the number row keys are by muscle memory as a touch typer, I can use both hands, and I'd have to relearn them on the numpad.Still use it for roguelikes tho
>>719625228>i can waste $150 on a product that's worth $50 at most and that makes me rightthe amount of work you need to earn a given amount of money doesnt correlate with the actual value of the items you buy, only with the value you give them: $150 is nothing to you? cool for you, but it doesnt change that a $50 worth of product being sold for $150 is a scam and a waste of money, even if you earned $500 per minute.>this'll help me understand the contrarian cope mindsetaka>if you have different standards than mine, you have cope mindsetaka "im a retard and proud of it"
>>719625445i'm asking because i guarantee you that you spend vastly more money every single year on actual meaningless trash while insisting on skimping on a keyboard>avoids the monitor questioni accept your concession miser
>>719622042no matter how good it is the fucking loud clicking is annoying as fuck
>>719625561clicky switches are a subtype of keyboards that aren't in the gamer market anymore, especially hall effect that's just better than conventional mechanical switches
>>719624262Yeah but I don't sleep on my keyboard and you aren't going to fuck up your hands just because you don't have klickty klack.
>>719625368>He doesn't use a controller instead of the keyboardHAHAHA
>>719625620you use your keyboard for hours at a time every single day, just like a bed
>>719625368They're boomers typing with their pointer fingers, the numpad in a 3x3 layout is simpler to navigate, meanwhile most savvy users who grew up with computers can type 130+ WPM using the keyboard's entire layout, number row included.
>>719625696>input method so bad it requires built in cheating to compensate and takes away from your abilities
>>719625705Sure, that doesn't change the fact that you aren't going to harm yourself using a cheap membrane. You are a poser who insists on over spending on a meme keyboard because a few loud faggots on the internet advertised at you.
>>719625763Keyboard doesn't let you do the dash and jump in megaman, if you emulate it on snes9x.You need a controller.
>>719621120Why do zoomer keyboards gets smaller and smaller? Why are zoomers happy with owning nothing?
>>719625847>you are a poser for not buying the cheapest lowest bidder shit even though the difference between it and expensive shit won't even amount to 1% of your salary

I don't understand keyboards but K120 is always my GOAT
>>719625892We're in 2025 we can press more than one key at a time. Stop using 20 year old emulators.
>>719625967Yeah that is literally the only difference, it costs more. Sure as shit won't make this sentence calling you a retard consoomer any different.
>>719621120i bind my MMO mouse to those buttons
>>719625940Why is your keyboard not centered with your body? Are you happy with typing with your hands at different angles?
>>719625173>Most people don't work as office and IT personany piece of software where it's beneficial to enter in exact values rather than moving a slider up or down (in design, engineering, you name it) benefits from a numpad.Also it just feels better to rapidly peck in your lock screen code on a keypad.
>>719626026I don't know if this is bait or you are just a retarded zoomer
>>719623850those issues exist on the original model M also, it's a direct clone
You don't even need to work to find use in it. It's the easiest way to punch in numbers in general
>using just one keyboardISHYGDDTyou have two hands don't you
>>719626179Meant to reply to>>719621368
>>719626061the ultra utilitarian perspective applied to entertainment and luxury just never fails to amusethey feel better, they work better, they're more durable but i guess that doesn't matter when you can just be poor and use membrane because all that matters is whether the buttons work
>>719621120I still like to have it. Just a waste of desk space to remove it.
>>719622250>MY “E” KEY ISNT CLICKY ENOUGH!! MOOOOOOM I NEED A NEW KEYBOARD BECAUSE I NEED MORE CLICKYCLICKY!!!

>>719626152Better a zoomer than an actual geriatric retard who can't do something as simple as upgrade his emulators. Seriously did it never cross your mind that maybe, just maybe, people have gotten past this extremely obvious input barrier in the last 50 years and are playing every console under the sun with perfectly normal keyboard controls?
>>719626348then your mouse is 40cm off-center, which is unnatural unless you're a gigachad caricature with clavicles the size of most people's femurs>>719626445when you place your right hand on the keyboard in a natural position do all your fingers fall on the middle row keys or do 2-3 of them go to the top row?
>>719623209most likely not
>>719626560to be frank smaller keyboards don't really help that much with ergofor that you need to go to dactyls and splitsi wish dactyls went mainstream and i didn't have to rely on big diy businesses for them
>>719626526Let me guess, you use retroarch
>>719623368It's about mousepad space.The FPS crowd realized there is an immense benefit to not having to reset mouse position constantly. There's barely any benefit outside of the context of FPS games, but playing FPS games with like 6 inches of mouse space will have you pulling out hair In today's environment
>>719626615Bsnes
>>719626615Retroarch is not an emulator but yes, snes9x as a core is included and your retarded scenario works perfectly fine in it.

>>719626786Lol are you upset? What are you trying to get at right now? Alzheimers flaring up? Remember we were talking about your 90 year old inability to press more than 3 keys at a time? Next time wrinkle your fucking brain and think instead of saying the most retarded statements ever like>Keyboard doesn't let you do the dash and jump in megaman, if you emulate it on snes9x.You need a controller.Holy fucking lmao. Feel free to ignore retroarch but how about you actually update your copy of snes9x from the version made in 2002?
>>719621368Its so much faster if you deal with lots of numbersI'm in supply chain and deal with 7 digit item codes hundreds of times a day so i NEED it

>>719627323You don't understand. Model M used to be THE memed keyboard. It's the reason mechanical keyboards exist in the first place, no one would have thought about switches if Model M springs hadn't become a meme in the 2000's. 2nd hand originals were hard to come by at reasonable prices for most people this was the only alternative. They bought the patent or something like that so there was no other way to get a new model m.
>>719626847I kinda do that. When I'm laying down I'll have one arm using WASD like that and the other using the mouse. Track balls let you get away with god levels of sloth.
Thoughts on my k95? My ex gf got this for me in 2017
>>719627447that's a standard on pretty much every modern mechanical board nowif i was to shop for a new board now i'd get a keychron k10 he 100% layout for $135, a monsgeek m1 v5 tmr 75% layout for $130 and monsgeek fun60 ultra tmr 60% layout for $70he is basically just mechanical switches but better and tmr is just faster and more power efficient he
>>719627173>the only argument it has is "i must consoom or else i look like i'm poor"embarassing
>>719627748that's true for all consoomers
>>719623368>>719621120I like those keys in the very niche circumstance I'm play Caves of Qud or some other tile-based RPG like Elona, Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode, or a MUD.I'm an extremely niche individual for using it at all, and most people are never even going to touch it. It's unironically a waste of space, and if you really did want one, you can get it as a standalone piece.
>>719627748>a one time sub $150 payment for a physical product that will last you years is consooming nowreeks of utter poverty
>>719627447literally every modern keyboard except the nu model M
>>719623385Those are a lot more expensive to make than a K100 or something like that
>>719627851>overpaying like a good goy is fine, because it's just oncelike i said, absolute consoomer nigger
>>719628086>overpayingbut the keyboard is of significantly higher quality and make than the disposable membrane dogshit?there are thousands of ways to spend money less efficiently than investing in something that constantly gets used, you're purity spiraling because you'd rather spend that money on burgers and tendies
>>719623154before mice, i get why they had it on the right. but now that mice are essential and occupy your right hand most of the time, it'd be better to have it on the left.
>>719622042I bought that one and used it for a bit when I was renting with other people. I lived on the first floor, and a roommate from the second fucking floor complained to me that I typed too loudly at night. Shit legitimately sounds like a typewriter, and it's not like the experience was worth the hassle, you're not gonna orgasm from your fingers just because the keys are spring-loaded. It's nice, but not mindblowing. I ended up buying a normalfag mechanical kb with linear switches (the kind that you see in typing ASMR videos, except it was 100%) and never looked back. Typing on those keys feels as smooth as they sound; it's a soft, legitimately pleasant experience, being hotswap makes repair (like spills) extremely easy, and it's also not nearly as bulky.
>>719622042i like your cut /g/
>>719622042Why would I buy that shit when my k120 has been working flawlessly for the past decade
>>719627823I don't play FPS, so I don't really need the extra space for my mouse. I do, however, play DJMax, and the numpad is useful for a variety of reasons. Plus I do a lot of number entry for work. I simply need the numpad, but not everyone will.

>>719621120take 15 minutes to actually learn how to touch type on a numpad, you'll see how much better it is than the number bar for typing any long numbers.if i'm entering a credit card number or phone number, i'm using the numpad, if i'm using the calculator i'm using the numpad, if im in krita or blender, i'm using the numpad for hotkeys.
>>719628730Yes, I'm a poor, molested, feeble, eurapean...
>>719622285>matte screen protectorgo to bed unc
>>719628815but you can fit 2 hands on the number bar while only 1 fits on the numpad

>>719626306Now note how "E" is the most used letter in your post, even with all the emphatic "O" you chose to add for effect.
>>719622691I was watching a tech review for a laptop (((Just Josh))), and the guy complained that the keyboard wasn't louder and more tactile sounding.These stupid niggers are why new laptop keyboards are all loud and clacky dogshit, I want a fucking quiet keyboard, not a keyboard made for ADHD autists.
>keyboard chopped>dick chopped>birth name chopped Yep, it's time to play some vidya
>>719621368>>719626963I’m an accountant and literally refuse to use keyboards that don’t have a numpad.

>>719621120I refuse to buy any keyboard or laptop without a numpad and full size arrow keys. I fucking hate the shitty half sized arrow keys found on a lot of laptops, or even worse, when the left and right arrow keys are full sized but the up and down arrow keys are half sized. Fuck you.

>>719621120You don't need it? They're selling keyboards without themBecause unlike you I don't like every keyboard to look the sameI'll keep using my full sized keyboard, you keep using your tenkeyless
>>719623787point to a single keyboard made by the same manufacturer that's anywhere as expensive as a 60% as it is as a 100%my top of the line 60% keyboard was almost half the price of a tkl one
>>719628965i've yet to meet someone who can actually touch type the number bar faster than the numpad. that's the real reason why they never went out of style for office settings where you're typing a lot of numbers into spreadsheets compared to gamer keyboards where they try to remove everything that isn't essential to their wasd dominate keyboard. i seriously recommend you go to a site that trains typing speed on numpad, you don't really feel how much easier and quicker it is until you're actually just doing it, then when you have to enter a long number or many numbers you'll just default to using the numpad because you know it's less hassle.
>>719630472>pic from 2016sameI don't even have a problem with it because I don't play any games where it matters, but people deserve to know. Especially since it's like twice as expensive now as it was then
>>719633001>i've yet to meet someone who can actually touch type the number bar faster than the numpadbecause every scenario where you're typing numbers will have you using a numpadno one is going to grind the number bar for the hell of it
I don't get the point, in what scenario will I be typing a lot of numbers but not need the () keys and therefore the number row
>>719633338Data entry. Aka, the reason keyboards exist.
Numpads are great for immersive sims with keypads since you can use the numpad to feel like you're actually typing the code on the keypad
>>719626560>when you place your right hand on the keyboard in a natural position do all your fingers fall on the middle row keys or do 2-3 of them go to the top row?Why would that matter? Sitting is already unhealthy as fuck, you fatty. The way you have your hands on your keyboard is already bad for your hand, it doesn't matter where you would put it.
>>719621120ahhhh the amount of games I've had buttons that are easily accessed and already hot keyed and mapped while my friends spend time rebinding keys since they don't have a numpad. All the space I could be saving I know oh my goddddddddddd so inconvenient.
>>719633069>Especially since it's like twice as expensive now as it was thenYeah, the one in my image is simply a 104 key Ultra Classic, I am using a New Model M now, and I paid $100-120 each. I had to double take the page I linked when people were complaingin about $200. Is that a Zenith on the left. HnnngAlso, you ever publicly share your music?
>people say they have a small keyboard because of desk spaceMaybe you should spend more than 20 dollars on a desk to make it bigger so you can have some actual room for your mouse?
>>719621120Can someone explain me why this thing goes from 7 to 3 but phones go from 1 to 9?
>>719633904Keypads are designed to be used with every finger. Phones are designed to be used by thumb.
How do zoomers type signs like ™ ¼ 2 on their keyboards?
>>719633338i agree that the numpad should have more symbols, like an extra column to the left on the numbers for ( ) ^ _, then it'd be even more perfect.
>>719633904Hand motion: you use the ten-key typically from the bottom up and using all 5 fingers, whereas a phone is typically used with both thumbs from the sides. Now rotary dial was where it was at.
>>719633823It's a Toshiba. One of those flat CRTs from 2005 or 2006 when plasma and LCD were the new hotness, idk the model numberand I gave up playing some time before that pic was taken so my music dies with me

>>719623496>buy a $5 office keyboard>abuse the shit out of it>buy or steal another one from work and keep going Better than paying $90+ for some piece of shit controller that uses the same bargain bin components that every manufacturer pulls from.
pretty much every single mechanical keyboard without a numpad will be programmable and you can have that numpad back by just putting it on a layer that goes on your left hand keysthe more compact design actually results in less hand movement than on a full sized board
>had 1 job for 1 summer when I was 18 that involved taking payments so I got used to typing numbers on a numpadSorry you're some stupid fuck that can't use one of these. It's objectively way faster than using the row, which also requires 2 hands, or hunting and pecking.I also use the numpad for keybinds that are rarely used like "start recording video" or "spit on OP's sister" or whatever.
>>719621368I don't disagree but I hate this idea that it's only useful for work. Do some of you fucks just never type numbers or have a complex password that has a lot of numbers in it? Num pad is just too efficient. Also it's just super convenient to hotkey shit to. I also use an 1800 format keyboard so I don't have a navigation cluster anymore, but I still use Home and End a lot, so right shift + 7 or 1 is a godsend.
>>719635184>>719623176You don't steal shit mr. "touch guy", your office is throwing that shit out.I can get free gutted computers and shitty monitors, too, mr. office criminal.If you actually DO steal then you are a complete insect bug creature and I hope your boss is banging your gf.
>>719635503>typing complex passwords yourselfwhy
>>719634781Typing on one right now. Close to 15 years as I bought one at random because it was cheap and logitech. Such a good buy.
>>719634843>talking about shit>thinks of foodNot surprised.
>>719635641Because my master password is complex? You don't just let your password manager stay unlocked all the time, do you?
>>719621368Lmao only beancounters say thishave fun counting beans grampa!
if i gave a shit i'd be better at number row typing than numpad typingno one gives a shit about touch typing numbers unless they're doing it for work and then you're doing it on a cheap office keyboard that's guaranteed to have a numpadsomeone that hobbyistically types numbers could learn to number row type faster than on a numpad that only uses 3 fingers for numbers
>>719623496This but literally and unironically. My chinkshit mouse and fake keyboard are working like champions.
>>719623814i want to solder a solenoid to my keyboard to make it even louder.
I got a new keyboard a few weeks ago that doesn't have the numpad cause it was cheaper and instantly regretted it. You don't realize how useful that thing is until it's gone.
>>719634408>my music dies with me:3 I have songs and poems only heaven has heard.Toshiba guts are good. 2004/5 was peak 32" CRT. I remember having a PS2, GameCube, and XboxHuge all connected while I played 3 games at the same time. Fifa on the GC, State of Emergency on the XBH, and FFX on the PS2. Good times.
>>719635897learn to use fn combos and layers
>>719635769I like 2FA with simpler passwords rather than a 50 letter chungus.
>>719622042I bought this for 100 bucks in 2019 wtf happened? Still works flawlessly
>>719621368You don't even need to use it for work. I use the numberpad daily to quickly hit Enter and type in numbers significantly faster than on the standard keyboard locations. Keyboards without a numberpad shouldn't exist, it's revolting.
>>719636317I have no clue. I truly though the price was still around $100. lol I would still have my 2016 Ultra Classic if my dad hadn't destroyed it out of spite. The New Model Ms(I have one from July 2022) are even better, though. Less flex and the keys are more precise, so they definitely cleaned the tooling or something. My only guess is greed enabled by the covid excuse.
>>719621120for me, it's 75%
>>719623496I can buy 100 chinkshit keyboards for the price of one (1) high end shit that may or may not last past warranty. And lemme tell you, those chinkshit keyboards last for years at least.
Why don't zoomers like learning hotkeys?

>>719625561>>719625616Clacky keyboards pretty much died off, these days people like the soft *THOCK* sounding Onces or tactile feeling of browns or smoothness of reds, Kind of wild at one point blues were insanely popular

>>719638087eh, from there it's just arrows, f keys and the 9 special keysarrows go under caps+wasd, f keys go under fn/caps+ number row and there's plenty of room to jam the 9 special keys
>>719629131i like mechanical keyboards because i like writing and its a lot easier to type quickly and accurately with them
Something I never see people mention about the numpad is that once you figure out how to quickly switch between NumLock you can cancel out any need to use the number row OR the arrow keys. Hell, you can even rely on the numpad for navigating web pages.
>>719638251>reading comprehension>>719638205tfw it's wearig out and chinks I've bought it from stopped making it>>719638332I much prefer not needing both hands to press commonly used buttons.
>>719638580the only thing i've ever had to use the numpad for was GTA IV helicopter flying
the only thing I use the numpad for is memorizing long numbers with muscle memory. past that I never use it in games or for anything other than the calculator when i'm too lazy to get out my phonenot having a numpad just feels wrong having had one since the 90s even if I don't use it

ITT: cagies getting mad that they are wagies
Cutting off the numpad is like cutting off your dick like a tranny
>>719639498I haven't had a numpad for years and I haven't missed it a single second.
>>719636875>knob
dactyls are objectively the endgame keyboard for anyone that's not obsessed with fitting in with the normies with their 100% keyboard
>>719639498I've touched my dick a lot more than I've touched my numpad, I'd really only be sad about losing one of these things.
>>719638580>game lets you play musical instruments poorly>rebind octaves to the number pad>can quickly belt out strangled cat noises like a failed pied piperAbout the only time that I've used it outside of basic number inputs because running across the top line is too slow by comparison.
people who don't use the numpad don't need computers, just stick to your mobile games.
>>719622042I'm not paying 200 dollars for a keyboard
Imagine trying to play Deus Ex without a numpad.
>>71962927075% keyboard + external numpad master race. it's so much comfier. I'm a bookkeeper pleb tho
>>719641421i literally never needed it, what are you on aboutthat game is actually bloated as shit with the keybinds, you don't need most of them
>>719640775I bet there is a bunch of stuff you will not be doing in life, stranger.
>>719640775Stop being poor bro
Studies have shown that keyboard size is the biggest indicator for someone trooning out. If you don't have a ten key, you're already in the tranny pipeline. If you have any size smaller than 100%, you've already transitioned and have been grooming kids on Discord.
>>719642942Cope

>>719643220I have an audio interface for that. Adding a knob to a keyboard is silly.
>>719622042I bought one of these and the 2 key rollover prevents you from being able to play Touhou. The keyboard itself is also so heavy that it caused my keyboard tray to roll forwards involuntarily. I switched to my old Dell keyboard that still works perfectly after 15+ years.
