The letters printed on the keys actually don’t matter.

When you install an OS or set up your user, there’s always a step asking you your language, right? Part of that is what the OS will interpret the keyboard key codes as.

For example, I pick US English as my language and then also say that I want “Dvorak” as my keyboard layout instead of the normal “Qwerty”.

After that, my laptop keyboard (which is the standard Qwerty everyone in the US gets with their Dell laptop) will be interpreted by the OS as actually being Dvorak layout instead, so typing the keys labeled “asdf” makes “aoeu” show up.

Software keyboard layout vs hardware keyboard layout.

NATO needs to research blue flame, stagger a line of siege tanks, and maybe pump out some liberators.

No?

In ISO 8601:2004 it was permitted to omit the “T” character by mutual agreement as in “200704051430”, but this provision was removed in ISO 8601-1:2019. Separating date and time parts with other characters such as space is not allowed in ISO 8601, but allowed in its profile RFC 3339.

Doom is EVIL! https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil

Well, Doom has Evil, evil collection, etc enabled by default. But that’s less quippy.

RIP my hero… Maybe now you’ll get your chance to introduce Kissinger’s afterlife to your knuckles.

I think this meme is older than COVID, so it might’ve been slightly profitable back when it was first photoshopped?
