A country that does not allow convicted felons to vote in general elections is not a democracy.

Never mind that all the US presidential candidates are in the pockets of Wall Street and/or insane (in one way or another) anyway.

DUH.....

Our inherent deficiency in interpersonal communication makes a true democracy inefficient and unmanageable.

True democracy is only possible if SOMEHOW all humans became linked via neural net..

Is this more a question about touch-screen keyboards, or about keyboards integrated into the computing device?

Might go voice control instead.

Mechanical Voice control?

Hypersphere · « **Reply #360 on:** Sun, 20 September 2015, 15:36:01 »

Touch screens will be obsolete as well. Soon we will have wearable VR devices with haptic feedback and eye-gesture control as well as direct neural interfaces.

Findecanor · « **Reply #361 on:** Sun, 20 September 2015, 16:09:01 »

I am typing this on Windows 10's touch-screen keyboard right now. It sucks. The accuracy is at the bottom, the auto-correct "corrects" words it never should have, and for longer texts I do almost as much editing as typing. I am also forced to type with the forefingers and always look at the keyboard. This little text took easily ten times as long as it would, have I had used a real keyboard.

ghostjuggernaut · « **Reply #362 on:** Sun, 20 September 2015, 19:44:11 »

Our Savior, Tim Cook, will ensure the keyboard never dies. In 10 years, he will unveil an iBoard that will revilitionalize the way we interact with computing devices. It will contain letters, numbers, symbols, and ways to modify keypresses. He will shame everything that is Microsoft into oblivion with his revolutionary idea. He has already created a digital pencil, the first of its kind. I can only imagine what he has in store for us, but know that I will be waiting graciously for him to speak the good word of Apple.

Tim Cook and revolutionize should never be used in the same sentence. Ever.

Well.... nope. Touch screens with direct haptic feedback looks imminent and nicer to use than most other types of input for small devices. It gives the impression of different surface features / materials on a flat glass screen. There's been some playing around with "in the air" contactless input, using cameras, but it's really much better to be physically touching something, unless you're wearing a haptic glove... but that's just not going to happen for oh so many reasons, one of which is the inconvenience of donning a glove to use your phone / tablet, etc.

Nope, for phones / tablets touchscreens will rule the roost for a good long while yet. Keyboard and mouse will ALSO be around for a good long while yet. There is no more efficient input method even at the research stage right now. In fact, mechanical keyboards are becoming more popular and will most likely continue to increase in popularity as more and more people get frustrated with the inefficiencies, lack of feedback and finger pain associated with touchscreen keyboards.

I have three young cousins that don't know how to work a keyboard. They've only ever used touchscreens before.

I have a better question.

More

Are you LOW-ENERGY LOSERS ready to be ruled by the most successful, most handsome, most energetic, and extravagant presidential candidate in the history of democracy?

Look at this guy on the right. So weak. How many buildings has he developed? How many successful prime-time shows has he pioneered? Are his past wives even hot?

And did you see how excited he was to shake hands with The Donald?

Are you really ready to live the life of ^luxury_{_luxury}_luxury^luxury_luxury, artful deal-making, and sucess^{sssss^{sssss^sssss}} that follows THE DONALD wherever he goes?

not all of us want to be leaning over the table to type on the screen.... keyboard will stay for a long while, only thing I can see that can replace them is some device you can control with ur thoughts in order not to type, which we are far away from that developing it. Also voice controlled is a no no cause no one wants to talk out loud just so it can type... keyboards wont be replaced there will always be option for us to connect them no matter what tech has come out, I mean look at it this way, people still put floppies to their PC's and its a tech from the 70's correct?

Thy software, eternal, our hearts still bestir.
