Is ergonomy just a meme?

Of course it is. My hands have never felt sore from prolonged typing or mouse operation. Your hands are out of shape anons.

Probably. I mean, I imagine that you can be fast once you get used to that style. However, I can bet you that keyboard is expensive compared to the usual qwerty layout. Probably not commonplace either.

Ergonomics is by far a meme. Good chairs, good grips on things and good controllers are a god send.
This keyboard however? Unless you suffer from pain in your hands, it's a meme.

Is anyone proficient with Stenotype? Apparently it's faster than QWERTY if you are good at it.

I'm gonna make them give back our past.

It's a good keyboard if you suffer from RSI or think you are prone to suffer from it (chronically sleep deprived, have joint pain, etc.) and want to prevent it.

it's a solution to a problem that regular folks don't have.

Been using the same Microsoft Natural Elite since 1999. I can't go back to anything else. It's just comfy. Your hands just fall into place instead of needing to cock your wrists inward.
Shame the new Natruals are shit.

It's not a meme when you are forced to switch to left handed mouse/fapping due to cts.

Everything's faster than qwerty if you're good at it.

What matters is how much better it is than qwerty. If I'm going to invest days upon days on top of major $$$, I better be able to clock in wpm's that reach the singularity.

No, you stupid cunt.

It's absolutely not a meme.

All heavy mouse users will have to resort to a thumb trackball mouse at some point in their lives.
All heavy typists will have to resort to a split angled keyboard at some point in their lives.
Top of monitor should be aligned with top of head.
