How do you know you're pressin' the right keys?

Askin' for a different guy.

The little bumps on the F and J keys

I see them now!! Okay, that probably helps with staying centered and knowing where your hands are when typing!

Man, the human mind is something else. Not my human mind, but other people's minds.

Thank you!

The only reason most keyboards are not ortholinear is because of tradition and typewriters.
