This just in from the because why not department, I’m converting my keyboards to and teaching myself to use the Dvorak keyboard layout. Supposedly Dvorak is faster and loss likely to cause carpal tunnel but I’m not trying it for those reasons; I’m trying Dvorak because it fits into my ongoing policy of cultivating eccentricities quite well.
So far, it’s mostly just annoying not knowing how to type anymore but, even so, I’m starting to get the hang of some of the vowels and more commonly used keys. Aside from my eccentricity goals, I’m inclined to believe that there might just be something to this crazy layout. That said, I do have one big complaint already, I can’t use a mouse with my right hamd and press Ctrl-X/C/V with my left hand on its home row.
