No capral tunnel

The most adjustable keyboard there ever was

2019-09-18 16:03:13 UTC  

Each hand gets to sit at whatever angle you deem comfy

2019-09-18 16:03:44 UTC  

>qwerty

2019-09-18 16:03:49 UTC  

Heck, they can sit on the sides of your table if that's how your hands feel morst comfy

2019-09-18 16:03:56 UTC  

qwerty sucks

2019-09-18 16:04:10 UTC  

it is literally a holdover of the telegraph era

2019-09-18 16:04:32 UTC  

It just persisted because people got used to the typewriter layout

2019-09-18 16:05:13 UTC  

There was no research for it beyond relocating letters so far from each other that the arms of the typewriter would not hit each-other

2019-09-18 16:05:18 UTC  

That's literally it

2019-09-18 16:05:49 UTC  

There is exponentially more research in Dvorak and Colemak

2019-09-18 16:06:04 UTC  

Those were actually derivatives of some thought

And I'm telling you that there's accidental efficiency in some slant because a hand-aligned up from F gets you R and T 's corner and a hand-aligned down gets you C and V's' corners.

2019-09-18 16:06:21 UTC  

B.eggs have to go

2019-09-18 16:06:34 UTC  

The degree of slant on a typewriter is retarded

2019-09-18 16:06:36 UTC  

Slant is not efficiency

2019-09-18 16:06:39 UTC  

but no slant is just as retarded

2019-09-18 16:06:47 UTC  

It is literally dictated by mechanical layout

2019-09-18 16:06:51 UTC  

because it's not hand-aligned movement

2019-09-18 16:06:52 UTC  

No ergonomics

2019-09-18 16:07:07 UTC  

LITERALLY THE ERGONOMIC MOVEMENT LANDS YOU AT THE CORNER OF TWO BUTTONS

2019-09-18 16:07:15 UTC  

NO SLANT MEANS YOU GET ONE BUTTON

2019-09-18 16:07:29 UTC  

HOW IS ONE > TWO

2019-09-18 16:07:30 UTC  

This diagramm is from a book on human ergonomics in device design

It is a guideline for button placement in vehicles like BOBCAT

2019-09-18 16:07:52 UTC  

That is how fingers move

2019-09-18 16:08:20 UTC  

I give up, Because no it's not. The pinky is the giveaway that that diagram is dead wrong

2019-09-18 16:08:20 UTC  

Why it is not in the typing guidelines I don't know

2019-09-18 16:08:31 UTC  

Pinky reaches go up and *out*

2019-09-18 16:08:33 UTC  

@🐈I Love Kiara 🐈 honestly if those 4 choices were there i would get rid of womens rights

2019-09-18 16:08:48 UTC  

because you have to rotate your hand to do them

2019-09-18 16:09:05 UTC  

@Eirshy you are arguing with professors of physiology

2019-09-18 16:09:09 UTC  

That's rich

2019-09-18 16:09:28 UTC  

And you're arguing with an engineer who can physically demonstrate it in front of his own face

2019-09-18 16:09:29 UTC  

Next thing you will say is that crutches are not meant for walking

2019-09-18 16:09:40 UTC  

In theory theory is the same as practice

2019-09-18 16:09:47 UTC  

In practice, fuck off

2019-09-18 16:10:05 UTC  

Yll you did is argue from familiarity
