Why should I look at the screen if I already know what I'm typing?
>>

do you look at your hands when you're playing video games?

I learned to touch type by fingerbanging you're mom desu senpai

Is it touch typing if I don't need to look at the keyboard but only two fingers?
>>
>>51793372
yes it is

Oh yeah?
How the fuck would you know such a fact?

Why should your keyboard exist, but not my God.

I can when I'mm fully awake. But being the degenerate I am, I'm always under influence of something.
>>
What the fuck is touch typing? Typing without looking at your hands? Typing on a touchscreen?

like, really?

I only have trouble with the numbers. I usually hit a number either to the left or right of the one I wanted.
>>
>>51793426
Typing without looking at the keyboard ya dingus. The hardcore mode would be with your eyes closed and knowing when you made a mistake.

Learning how to touch type has to be one of the most easiest skills you can teach yourself. It only took me a while because I'm lazy as fuck.
>>
>can type without looking at the keyboard
>it takes significantly more concentration and mental effort to do so, so I usually just do it wrong and look at what I'm typing
who else

> not using numpad
>>
did they stop teaching touch typing in elementary? i could've sworn they had me learning how to type in 4tth or 5th grade.
>>
I mostly can't focus, but when I do focus I can reach around 70 wpm. Normally it's around 40-50, depending on how I feel.
>>
meh I still occasionally look when I use accented letters or when I'm not typing in english, also when I'm not using the keyboard I'm used to.

All in all it's the easiest skill I've ever learnt.
>>
>>51791488
where would i learn?

i only use my 2 index fingers and i want to be faster
>>
>>51793429
yeah, I feel like I can type at a reasonable speed but whenever I try an online test I freak out and do shit
and I just realised that I don't usually have to look at the keyboard while I type, but even typing this post right now is fucking torture
>>
>>51793708
just play typing of the dead

>20 dollaridoos for a shit game with 2003 graphics where you have to type all the time

>>
>>51793757
Just pirate it if you're poor or don't feel like playing. Do you want a game where you don't type all the time to learn how to get faster at typing?
>>
i touch type at 70-80 wpm when not trying.

85-95 when concentrating
>>
>>51793708
10 fast fingers is where I got most of my training from. Remember to stop looking at the keyboard when you type. Also know where the home row keys are.

You are now aware that touch typing is a less common skill than it was 10 years ago because kids only use on-screen keyboards on phones and tablets now.

Wait can most people really not touch type?
I've been touch typing since I was like 9. I only need to look to place my hands (sometimes) or if I'm on an unfamiliar keyboard.

I don't program but it amazes me that some people do and do it without touch typing
>>
I can also do it with one hand, the keyboard turned and my eyes closed. I don't know where the buttons on a leyboard are but when I think of a letter my fingers go in the right direction anyway.

Too much gaming in the past I guess.
>>
I switched to Colemak to force myself to learn how to properly touch type instead of using 3-4 fingers per hand at 120wpm and I'm happier and more successful now. Also, my dick has grown approximately 2 inches in girth.
