ITT: Tell us the typing/computer habit you have that you know is really inefficient, but you can't break the habit.

>when typing something, no matter how far along in the sentence I am, I spam backspace all the way until the mistake I made instead of clicking back where I messed up
>>
I type very hard and people have told me to stop slamming their keyboards because they think my fast typing will break their $2000 macbooks.

They pecktype like 10 wpm.
>>
Whenever my mouse touches one corner of the screen, I have to make it touch the opposite side.
>>
>>57893793
OP here. My boss (head of IT dpt) has broken keyboards before slamming the enter button replying to emails that piss him off
>>
>have trackpoint, still use trackpad a lot
>super hard typing
>can barely type without looking and only then on specific keyboards that i am used to
>type too fast to give a shit about properness and then have to proofread and capitalize shit
>>
Vim with arrow keys.
Caps lock to capitalize.

Yeah.
>>
I only use my pointer, thumb, and middle fingers to type, but I still manage 90 WPM so whatever.
>>
>>57893754
>typing something
>clicking
>>
I type way faster in English than in my native language. Only bothered to learn to type blindly in English.
>>
My typing style is technically touch typing, but only using index fingers for the most part. I could learn to use more fingers if I wanted to - I just don't care enough to put in the effort.

It doesn't affect me to any significant degree anyway, I don't need to look at the keyboard and still type at a good speed.

>>57893894
too much age of empires
>>
>>57893754
Learning how to be a better programmer.
>>
I only use the left shift key...
>>
>>57893754
using Windows
>>
>>57893754
I like to grab the scroll bar and move it up/down instead of using the scroll wheel
>>
>>57893754
Look at the keyboard too frequently.

I can type without looking, just much slower.

I'm kinda proud of the fact that I use the Num pad alot. I only use the central return key when typing.
>>
>>57893754
Not using entirety of my right hand, I really only use my index finger and a little bit of my middle finger to type in o and p. Really makes me slower and it's hard to learn since I'm left handed anyway.
>>
>>57897352
I only use the right shift
>>
>>57897908
Same.
>>
>>57893754
I type strictly with my index finger on my right hand even though I use all four (thumb reserved for spacebar) on my left hand. I am a lot faster no matter how hard I try to type with all four.
>>
>>57893754
I use QWERTY keyboards.

It's like Windows and Git crap, everyone else uses them enough that your hand is forced unless you sit alone in your basement your entire life.
>>
I never learned how to type properly. I did try Mavis Beacon, but I could never get past that FUCKING SHARK MINIGAME
>>
>>57895308
Same for me
>>
>>57894797
Calling bullshit.
>>
>>57899894
Jesus nigger all you need to know is the home row. put your fingers on asdf and jkl; and just reach for keys and you'll lean organically.
>>
I sometimes use the shitty alps touchpad instead of the mouse just inches away.
