    My keyboard is acting weird on this device.  The £ key is supposed to be a pound or hashtag but it shows up as £.  ! Is right.  So is the others.  From what I can tell.  What is £?  Okay it is just one key so far acting weird but I have no clue why?

    Hmmmm... full GI probably would need the lights turned on since it's actually calculating light bounces, but Ambient Occlusion only (if that's an option) shouldn't.

    Pennies in old money used to be 2d or 5d    now in new moeny it's simply 2p or 5p  so in old money (pre early 1970s) we would have £2 10s 2d  Said as two pounds 10shillings and tuppence.

    ...mine almost looks like your example.  Many of the characters of the keys have worn off.  Makes it even more of a challenge when you are dyslexic.  I remember when the characters were embossed into the key face, now it ls more like they are just stenciled on top. Maybe I need to get one of those (ugh) backlit gamer keyboards.

    I thought they were bees but they could have been wasps.  Either way they were bugs.

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,865

    ...OK wasps are another matter. Besides being fairly aggressive, they also attack bees as well.

    Late summer here is no fun because that's when we get lots of Yellowjackets and they can be even more aggressive than wasps.

    I'd rather have glowbutts instead of mean stingybutts.

    My computer said it needed to do an update but I did not expect it to take this long.

    Why are they killing bees?  Bees are endangered lately.  Insectisides are killing them.  Espcially the one in Round Up.  It's not good.  No bees, no fruit and veggies.  They need to be polinated by the bees.

    I rarely look at mine.  Touch typist.  As long as you have your fingers in the right place it's easy.  And most keyboards have those little bumps on the F and J keys so you know you're at the home position without even looking.

    I did not see what they were killing actually.  Could have been a yellow jacket they were killing but a bee was what I was playing with earlier.  Or it could have both been yellow jackets.  No clue now.

    One of mine came with grey letters on black keys. Miserable to use unless you
    are in a classic typist pose.I have no idea why ASUS would do that.
    Kind of like the "in" thing for avant garde websites nowadays to use light grey
    fonts on a white background, as if they really don't want people reading them.
    The ads are still high-contrast, though. Go figure.

    Yeah, I worked as consultant to a company (Harris Intertype) that made specialized computers for the newspaper business back in the late 70s.    I designed the software for text editing to be fed to a phototypesetting machine.  The company made dedicated text editing machines that received news articles straight from the AP and UPI and other news agency teletype lines and then the editors would edit the stories in the computer which fed them to the phototypesetting machines.  The editing computers needed to be manufactured for several languages for their customers around the world.  Consequently we had bags of loose keycaps of all sorts of languages laying around the assembly area.*  That was back in the day when each key had a spring and metal lever mechananism to which a key was mounted and the key caps were each a molded sandwich of two colors of plastic so the character would NEVER be scratched off or erode away, and you could use the keyboard for a cricket bat.  Real machines!  Quality!  Something young kids today will never appreciate.

     

    * Somewhere around here I have a little bag of keycaps that spell my full name! blush)
