i find trackballs fascinating because i really like it but everybody else in the family fucking hate it as if kicked the dog or something. on the brighter side of things - everybody gave up on snooping around on my desktop

Bonus points if you can touch-type: Legendless blank keycaps. XD

If that doesn't work learn Dvorak

Those kids ain't right, Peggy.

But don't do both. I use qwerty key caps and touch type in Dvorak; when I need to remote into another machine, I likely need to use qwerty until I'm logged in, that would be difficult with blank keycaps
