Okay, this is like a tech support kinda question but idk where the hell to ask it so I am gunna ask it here. My old keyboard died a couple of days ago. Just gave up the ghost, and I cursed the gods and got out my bluetooth keyboard. I had been using my lappy exclusively (so not using an external keyboard) but hooked it up to my monitor and started jamming away on the bigger screen. It’s further away from my face, so I sometimes miss typos (or just can’t spell and fk auto-correct). But I have also been noticing letters flipping from time to time at random. Just having a blast. I’ve got a real stream of conciousness way of thinking/typing/talking/existing - yada, yada! So I am not catching this stuff until later and tsk, tsking and going back and fixing it. Now I am wondering if I am experiencing rampant levels of dyslexia or if others know about some weird latancy issues with bluetooth keyboards where someone could type faster than the output so stuff gets jumbled? Cause idk, but like…hell idk. Doesn’t hurt to ask?
So yeah, anyone know about this. Either way, not crying over it. Cause what am I gunna do? Keyboard does what it needs to…so yeah. Just find it weird, but maybe also I am typing WHOLE FREAKIN’ NOVELS for every comment so shit gets messed up more. Eh.
I have had this happen. Mostly with weird, old, or cheap (or some combination thereof) hardware. Like sometimes the connection will hitch for a moment then three or four letters will come out backwards. Couldn’t say for sure what the cause is but I suspect either the controller in the board itself is jank, or there’s some kind of protocol / buffer mismatch. I have no solution, but it’s not just you.
Thank you, I was going crazy. I was like…what in the hey is going on? Cause I mean you know - folks make mistakes but I was really laying em on @_@!!
