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.
You could always try on another machine if you can to see if the latency is due to the laptop or the keyboard itself.
Also, changing keyboard, especially if you’ve been using a certain keyboard type and you change to another, can really mess uo the eay you type until you get used to it.
Lastly, bluetooth is a whole mess so it very well could be that. If you value what you bought and like you said, someone close to you is a tinkerer, converting a bluetooth device to a wired can be a nice project if they haven’t done so before (and it prevents throwing out a working device with a small defect).
Hey, homie g! Hope your sun-monday is chill af. I usually use it on my phone to write little snippets. It works pretty well there, but idk. But I think maybe your second point might be the stickler. In that I am more used to typing with a certain keyboard and maybe I am just typoing all over the place.
I wanna keep my bluetooth guy, but I am gunna have my gal take a look at my other keyboard. I was just shocked it died so fast because I’ve been rocking Logitech a majority of my living breathing life and have taken the same mouse around for a hundred years. The keyboard was new, but I figured it wouldn’t poop out and I could keep hopping around with that too. Eh!
