Topic: what that damned gift !!

[GiovaneDinamitardo]

Wonderful, really wonderful !! 

Only last friday night my "superboss" saied that wanted to empower the staff of our office (we WERE 5).

Today.

About 200 km for work.

I've to talk with users too much idiot to understand the difference between "kilobites" and "kilowatts" and that when they've to press "CTRL+ALT+CANC" THEY'VE TO USE BOTH THE HANDS !!!

11 hours of works, 8 paied.

... BUT, MOST OF ALL, HERE YOU ARE THE GIFT MADE BY SUPERBOSS: FROM TOMORROW JUST 2 PEOPLE IN OUR STAFF !!

Fortunately one of them is me.

The point is that we've to care all the nation !!!

WE HAVE TO CARE ALL THE NATION WITH OUR "DIVISION" (now I know why is called "division" !!!).

My agenda is filled since the next february, fortunately they spared to me to work for christmas but since the next days I'll have to stay all the week far from home.

AND THE PAY IS THE SAME !!!!

I feel I gona kill.....

ano... "CANC" key wa nan desu ka.

I can't find that key on my keyboard.

[FallinG_StaR]

It's delete in Italian... XD

Ctrl+Alt+Del

[UruseiNeo]

I'd have to put my hand in an awkward position to hit all three cause my keyboard is different.

So yeah, I'd rather use two hands.

I use two hands to ctrl-alt-del because I'm left-handed, and it's much more comfortable. But don't go thinking that makes me any less a typist, I may not use home keys either, but I type around 100 wpm (after error correction, at that).

How the hell can you type crtl + alt + delete with one hand and at the same time?

Geovane can't you do something about it like report to someone?

[veehive]

How the hell can you type crtl + alt + delete with one hand and at the same time?

With your right hand held high above (so only tips of the digits contact the keys): tip of the thumb on "alt", tip of the little finger on "control", tip of the ring finger on "delete"....

Hope that helps  :*)

_{I know she didn't really want an answer, I'm just doing this to be a smarty-pants Waa-aa-aa-aa-aa!}

[UruseiNeo]

it's easier, and faster, just to use two hands -_-

My laptop has a different keyboard. The alt and ctrl are on the right places but delete is just on the farthest place of the keyboard.

[UruseiNeo]

Same here, it suks. But I have a second set of "ctrl" and "alt" on the other side of the keyboard.

Still hard to do.

[sidzero]

Well, on my keyboard the ctrl and alt keys on the right side (they're on the left side as well) are next to each other right next to the spacebar. The delete key is just above and a little to the left of the backspace key. Typical laptop keyboard layout (man I wish I had a numpad).

I could just hit the ctrl and alt keys with my thumb and the delete key with my index finger, but I'm used to doing it two handed and doing it any other way would require a whole second or three of thought and I might even have to look at the keyboard.


And who would want that?

[UruseiNeo]

(man I wish I had a numpad).

*sniff* I know how you feel T_T

I use "Juicy Blender" for 3D modeling, but it requires the numpad. I know there's the "Fn" key to turn the numpad on but then I forget to turn it off and I end up typing like this:

5'0 st533 n6t 4sed t6 5t T_T

[sidzero]

I want it so I could play Sid Meier's Pirates! on my PC. Also because I miss being able to use alt codes when I type, I hate having to bring up charmap every time I want to type a symbol.

Well, once upon I spoke with a woman that saied: "I havn't any mouse".
After a long time I discovered that she was using the mouse like the pedal of a neddle machine !!!!
