I don't believe in all that home row bullshit. For six years I've been typing in my own way, with no regard to any forced rules or concepts such as ``home row''. I can type pretty fast and I rarely make typos. So what. Fuck the system.

Anyone with an ounce of sense would turn Caps Lock into Backspace, as is corrrect, and use ^[ instead of Escape.

But of course, a person with even an ounce of sense wouldn't be using vi.

I can reach the escape key from the home row. Also, I type with my hands going near the home row most of the time but never fully resting on it. I seem to type moderately well.

Or you can simply remap another key to do the same thing as escape. One common example is simply using caps lock.

And bump Backspace from its rightful place? Escape is a pretender (and don't even mention Control: putting it there is just retarded).

Can you not touch type or something? No one who actually knew how to keyboard would put Control there.

Name: Anonymous 2009-06-21 3:26

>>57
“knew how to keyboard” implies putting your most commonly-used keys in the least accessible positions?  Let me guess, you use QWERTY too.

Name: Anonymous 2009-06-21 3:34

>>58
It implies making use of the appropriate Control key to ease the strain of executing key combos. 'Tards who put Control in Backspace's rightful place are invariably the types who have not yet managed to locate the right Control key or integrate it into their keyboarding. If you turn Caps Lock into a Control key, you'd damn well better do the same to Enter.

Name: Anonymous 2009-06-21 3:39

>>59
In other words, the only appropriate bindings for keys that do not exist symmetrically are bindings that are not used in chords, except as every other key in the chord exists symmetrically.

There is always the possibility of using modifier keys with the proper hand, yet having the left and right instances of a given modifier appear in wildly different places. If you do this, you're pretty cool.

I'm typing this on a keyboard that has no right control key anyway, but regardless…the standard control key position is so horrendous that it is more efficient to use capslock for all of the right-handed keys and most of the left-handed ones as well.  You cannot seriously tell me that ^A is a strain on my left hand that would justify either moving my right hand off the main keyboard or bending my right pinky back to that awkward angle.  Symmetry be damned.

Move your Control hand, dummy. You can't seriously be telling me this is so much work for you that it justifies moving your typing hand off the letter keys and stretching your fingers across the keyboard, eventually ruining your wrists. And then once you've done that, you know what you'll say? “QWERTY did it.” I'm well familiar with this MO.

http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=ridiculous
1550, from L. ridiculosus "laughable," from ridiculus "that which excites laughter," from ridere "to laugh." In modern senses, ridicule (n.) is attested from 1690; verb is from 1700.

/sigh/. He said his gf spells ridiculous as rediculous, and I asked him which root rediculous has. It must've been something that starts with 'red', and the only English word is, well, red.

Do a grep for ^red in your dictionary and see that the only possible relevant word would be red.
