The French Thread

FYI, boys:


"Let me know if I need to train to use an Azerty keyboard again for this discussion. When I moved to the U.S., I switched to Qwerty and I prefer it now. Using Azerty is too hard and not practical."

Is it what she said?

My assumption is that Azerty is trully masterrace but only a few people are worthy to type on it. Like I know several frenchman who switched to qwerty (cough Ngt cough) because they can't handle the beauty of the layout.
Also they're too weak to browse every single Leboncoin(craiglist equivalent) keyboard ad in the hope to find cherry or worthy caps.

Vesper tried it, he got confused and ever since he's not the same he hardly comes here. It's an experience that can destroy some people.

How does it feel to have another English speaker wreck your famous race.

Actually it passed right next door to me but I wasn't around.

I don't follow this drug addict on bicycle sport so I can't help you on that.

Yes, it is. 

I will learn to type on Azerty.  I want to be a part of the master race.

Those cold hard truths.

The problem with QWERTY is that it doesn't have the accent. It is fine to switch to it if you don't write anymore french. Otherwise it is such a pain in the ass to have all your sentences empty of all accent. Just plain boring.

That's a good point for French/non-english typing.  You can always do alt-codes, but those are incredibly obnoxious.

And anyway ISO has one more key, so you always have to figure out where to remap it when you move from ISO to ANSI.

stupid imo, sry Ngt but we discussed about it a lot already.

Yeah no hard feeling don't worry. The only reason I switched to ANSI is in order to take part in all these sweet GBs we have in the community. I was sick of moving heaven and hell just for an ISO set. I don't even mention if you want an AZERTY ISO one. So no regret so far. Soon I'll have a custom coming in so I'll do some hybrid ISO/ANSI perhaps.

Alt codes are terrible.  Especially if you don't have a numpad to type them on. 

On another note, I might need to switch my username again.

Technically they are talking about alt bindings, not codes.

By the way, I used to think that the only language in the world more ****ed up than English is French, but after some time in the UK I'm not so sure.

That's why I mostly stick to gibberish these days.
