I would just need a off key...
Oh hey. It's the keyboard used in the 2008 action movie Wanted.
Movie any good? Worth finding?
The story is a little bit curved and I don't want to spoiler all bullet points, but if you don't search for a far-reaching target or complicated woven meaning, I'm sure you can enjoy it.
4 puns in one nice! Got any more in the chamber?
Glad you appreciate my killer puns and they hit you on the spot. Maybe that's a suppressed ability of me. All I wanted was spreading digital joy. That's all a keyboard warrior could dream of.
If you like incoherent scream-whining for a solid 20 minutes, followed by an incoherent plot about... weavers?... then go for it
Is the plot stupid? Yes.
Is the plot incoherent? Only if you didn't actually pay attention or have brain damage. It is incredibly simple, stupid, and rather cliched.
If you like action movies, yes.
The whole curving bullets thing is one of the dumber plots in action movies.
They don't even explain the crazy steampunk sniper rifle that fires a morphing bullet.
I’ve wondered for some time how they got the actors they did for that movie. Was it blackmail? I mean, if they genuinely had the money to get top actors then why didn’t they use that money to get a real writer?
Either they wanted to do it, or they had some prior contractual obligation would be my guess. I bet that was a fun one to work on. Most stupid movies, to me, seem like they would be more fun to act in than to watch. 🤣
A single "fuck you" button would be an innovative improvement.
Not sure if science is ready yet to accomplish such a task!
This makes me wonder how we can take a standard qwerty keyboard, and turn it into a layout with as many expletives as possible?
'Nobody got fired for buying IBM...' '... hold my beer.'
No caps lock?
Ergonomics is important, so I present you my quick prototype of a QWERTY version:
Replace the second U with an S and it gains a lot of functionality.
sucks you 😳
If you insist..
Who's going to write "fuck yos" it doesn't even make sense.
/s in case it isn't obvious
Say it with a New York accent, problem solved!
I'm typin here!
Hah, classic
But you wouldn't be able to write "as per my last email"...
What's the longest single word your can type with that keyboard? Best I can do is "yucky".
cuckoo
Fuckyfuck
in what dictionary?!
I'm integrating it into my lexicon as we speak, you fuckyfuck
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...
cookoff
No caps because no shift.
- You win, I think. That definitely seems to be an accepted spelling.
- Pretty sure this particular keyboard is gonna be only caps. One of my keyboards even does this with numlock. It is on by defualt, has no numlock key, and if I plug in a second or use software to turn it off, the keyboard turns it back on like a useless machine.
i have a crappy dell wireless keyboard here that doesn't have a NUMLOCK. in some linux distributions or environments it defaults OFF, and i have to rig the DE or numlockx to enable it at login. i only keep it around because it's a kb+mouse set that shares one dongle.. it's handy to move from pc to pc when i need to.
Mine was made for a chemical analyzer for medical and drug testing (it has a METH key, among others!), and firmware-wise the customization was sort of a hack. Keeping numlock on was necessary to make it work how they intended.
Is "fuckoff" one word? As in, "You're a real ... "
With the power of macros, we can maintain the same functionality while reducing the form factor to a single key!
Wait, are all the macros just pressing the same key different numbers of times?
No need. It knows what the next letter is at any given time. In fact, we can just type out the whole phrase with one key press!
Of course, predictive text macro. What could possible go wrong?
It's typing out "fuck you" every time, so not exactly a demanding prediction...
But what if I want to type other fuck-based phrases?
This macro predicts that you don't.
ahk macro script that replaces every keypress of any key.
Ahhh, the legendary IBM Model F!
Missing an exclamation mark.
