Talk:2583: Chorded Keyboard
Revision as of 10:37, 19 February 2022 by 162.158.111.16 (talk)
Why is it H+<Left> rather than H+<Right>? JohnHawkinson (talk) 03:22, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- Probably for the rhyme with "Shift" in the previous verse. In terms of practicality, though, I agree — <Right> would make more sense for a real keychord. 108.162.246.154 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- A pity Shift and Left don't rhyme very well. But then neither do Chord and Word. 172.70.85.79 03:41, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- It works if you're from New Zealand. 162.158.111.16 10:37, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- Wow, I totally missed that near rhyme. It's not quite so bad if you sing it, though. JohnHawkinson (talk) 03:46, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- Eh, Tom Lehrer's certainly done much worse slant rhymes. -- KarMann (talk) 03:55, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sadly, too, there was the opportunity for "The other hand, hits H and lift." Alas. JohnHawkinson (talk) 04:23, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know about other people, but I can reach H+<Left> on my keyboard with the index finger and pinky of my right hand, but H+<Right> requires thumb and pinky and doing something terribly awkward with my wrist. 172.70.110.161 06:51, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
Is it steganography? 108.162.237.41 04:03, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
