You say - "nice laptop anon" and then help your friend without being a neckbeard douchebag.

You can easily change keyboard layout on Mac from Dvorak to QUERTY.

I just noticed
Thought you niggas were going to bitch about it being a macbook or something, but then I saw it closely.
>>53522959
Look at how the keys are placed.
>>53523037
If anyone here makes fun of the Danish,
I will torture you with yet another shitty album.

I was more concerned that I missed a giant stain of cum than mundane things like this.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux,
is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component
of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell
utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day,
without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU
which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are
not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a
part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system
that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run.
The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself;
it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is
normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system
is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux"
distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Hipster keyboard more hipster than normal qwerty. Now what would be hilarious is if there were a few letters actually missing.

Underage b&
>>53523363
Nigga how have you never seen a typewriter? It uses the same fucking layout as the keyboard under your fingers, unless you're an autist who uses dvorak or colemack. qwerty was designed for the typewriters because it places the most common keys as far apart as possible, to avoid jams.
>>53523481
>it places the most common keys as far apart as possible
If that was true, then E and T would be on opposite ends.
>>53523494
It tried to keep them out of the same vertical row, at least. It spaced them apart. Do you take everything this literally?
>>53523481
is that actually why the keys were placed the way they were?
>>53523453
>>53523481
>old typewriters
I never gave a shit about typewriter history, I assumed that typewriters were different before someone designed qwerty.Thanks for the info.
>>53523532
>Do you take everything this literally?
No, I just pointed it out because it's a common misconception that the most common keys were placed as far apart from each other as possible.
>>53523547
No shit, man. Look at the inside of one, you'll see when you press a key, the big arm comes up. If you press two keys close enough to each other at close to the same time, they'll get stuck. To keep that from happening, the creator of the layout put them farther apart. So long as they weren't in the same row.
>>53523608
What misconception?
>>53523186
This shitty thread is now a Mike Portnoy thread.

I know what it looks like when they jam, my grandmother had one that I used to play around on when we were visiting her. I was just wondering if that was actually the reason for the placement of keys in the QWERTY layout.

No

The ÆOÅ is strong in this one
>>53523608
Oh alright. Didn't mean to get you wrong, nigga. I just misspoke is all.
>>53523586
Nope, it's sorta neat that the most popular layout was created out of convenience.
Actually, that might be wrong. I'm absolutely sure that QWERTY is the most popular in the states, but what about outside the country? France uses AZERTY, some people use QWERTZ. I don't know the statistics of those. Anyone know?
>inb4 look it up
I don't care enough to do research on it
>>53523703
then what is the reason?

What's your favorite album he worked on? Here's mine.

How do you type on this shit EU keyboard?
>>53523712
all spanish keyboards are qwerty except the ñ is on next to the l
>>53523712
Pretty much everywhere that isn't German or French speaking uses QWERTY.
You could see it as QWERTY being the default, with some exceptions.
>>53523730
Saw him live for the first time when Images and Words came out...love that album, it has to be that one for me.

>>53523737
>>53523744
It is true for ONE SPECIFIC brand of type writers, and then the layout just caught on.
>>53523822
Didn't that come out in 1992? How old are you and why are you wasting your life on 4chan?
>>53523864
I'm not too old to enjoy a spirited discussion about the QWERTY keyboard.
That shit never gets old.
