This is my dad's Underwood typewriter. More than 70 years old. At that time, word processing was NOT the same. This model has a Spanish keyboard ("MAYUSCULAS" is "capital letters"). Young people can probably not relate to this... Editing was also a different thing. I remember cutting correct paragraphs and gluing them to a paper and hand writing corrections so everything could be re-done, retyping all text...

After a conversation with my flickr friend Christopher

A keyboard which has seen better days hangs out against the wall.

It appears the letters are being blown off my keyboard!

Là où tout commence...

This happened a while ago, but anyway, I was talking with Go Play in Traffice Please/Ninja, and I was keymashing, and suddenly, the J key came off. XD But I only got my SD card reader now, so I could only upload the pic now.

Also, this picture really emphasizes how dirty my keyboard is... ahaha...

I took my old keyboard out of the basement.

Je me suis creusé la tête afin de savoir comment combiner: ma passion photo, l'univers apple et le fait que je sois un squatteur sur Flickr tout en étant le plus clair possible, voici la compo illustrant ma pensée.

J'espère que mon i-idée vous plaira... :D

One of my many ongoing approaches is to move through the world as a harvester of images. I stumble, stroll, and lurch, equal parts accident and intent. Each frame is a fragment, a glitch, or a whisper from the margins. My decades-deep, mythically charged archive serves as both a compass and a crucible: a living constellation of negatives and proof sheets that drive and generate further inquiry. It’s where entropy meets annotation, where decay and growth are catalogued not as opposites but as co-conspirators.

I circle questions that resist resolution: time as texture, presence as performance, and possibility as rupture. I search for quiet collisions, between gesture and ruin, between what’s seen and what’s overlooked, where meaning might flicker into being. I attempt to create each image not as a document and but more a provocation, an invitation to reframe perception and interrogate the ideological choreography of attention.

213/365

I took 332 images today and not one of them was for my 365… In thirty days I will be 18. That is an odd thought. I have never been 18 before. I think it is strange because last year I was really excited – 17 meant cars and driver’s licences and things - but 18 does not really mean anything – I do not drink, and living alone relies upon passing my A levels. So there is nothing that I am really looking forward to. I do not know, I do not really get excited for birthdays anyway – they just mean I am one year closer to dying. And I know, that sounds depressing, but it is just how I think. I have this bag, and it says 'Bag for Death', like the 'Bag for Life' that you get at supermarkets, and I had my library books in it to return after my exams and I was stood talking to my philosophy teacher and my progress coach and they looked at it and I said "It is like a Bag for Life, only more optimistic." My philosophy teacher looked slightly shocked and slightly like she was suppressing laughter and my progress coach just rolled her eyes. They know it was a mixture of my sick, twisted humour and my actual outlook on life.

It is not that I want death to be here faster or anything, I just think that it is not something to be feared. Dying is something that happens to all of us in the end.

Wow, deep for quarter to midnight on Tuesday night...

Did you know that Jack the Ripper killed his first victim on the 31st August 1888? I went through a phase of looking up interesting things that happened on my birthday and researching them - Jack the Ripper was a phase that took me through three or four months of reading books about him.

Another image from Saturday night, as part of the Out of Chicago Photowalk, a few of us broke away to divide the group up and headed to Fullerton. This is Brian, check out his work here. Where Brian is standing is normally rocks and lots of water, but thanks to the cold weather last week it was a large amount of ice giving us the chance to shoot from some different angles.

This is a three exposures manually blended together to create the image.

Looks normal, right? Look at your own keyboard... notice anything different? Okay, maybe you don't. But try actually typing on this and it all becomes far too apparent. The whole of the bottom row of letters (Z, X, C...) is one too far to the right. The Z should be below and between A and S, not S and D.

You're looking at a brand new Dell Vostro 1310, ordered the day after its released, and delivered on 30th April 2008 in the UK.

They keys are all there. Shift, \|, Z, X... its just that the left shift is too big, forcing everything over too far. The Z has to be between the A and S... look on ANY other keyboard and that's where it sits. This is not a US/UK layout issue, just a general monumental flaw.

UPDATE 1st May 2008 5pm: I phoned Dell for 20 minutes and they have confirmed that this affects all new Vostro 1310s in the UK. Oh dear!! They're hoping they can just replace the keyboards, though the guy on the phone said it was a 'motherboard' problem... I can't imagine that though.

UPDATE: 2nd May 2008 1:30pm - Kerry from Dell has informed me that Dell are working on a resolution for the issue. The official statement is as follows:

------

A limited number of Vostro 1310 and

1510 in Europe have been sent out with the wrong keyboard

layout. We are working diligently to offer a solution to

impacted customers and correct the error. Once a solution

is in place, we will be contacting impacted customers

directly to both apologise and instruct them on next steps.

We are still investigating this issue and will come back

with more detailed information as soon as possible. We have

made a mistake here and will be acting as quickly as

possible to find a satisfactory solution for our customers.

-----

UPDATE 8th May: direct2dell.com/smallbusiness/archive/2008/05/08/europe-v...

UPDATE 9th May:

Okay, so they're sending out new keyboards. But it seems to me like a quick fix which is imperfect rather than applying the correct fix. Here's what I just posted to their blog:

---

[Y]ou've gone and kept the large left shift key and moved the \| key

to the right of the row, rather than making the left shift key

smaller... why?

You mention it appearing on more systems here... I will have to take

your word for that, but all 6 keyboards I can see in front of me right

now have a small left shift key and the \| key to the left of the z.

Why reinvent the wheel? If there's a good ergonomic reason for this

choice then that's great, but I can just sense that I'm going to fit

this new keyboard into my laptop and be (a lot less, but still a

little) frustrated with it.

Here's the logic for why the |\ should be on the left not the right:

* Look at where a touch typists fingers little fingers sit

* Note the distance the little fingers have to travel to reach a shift key

* when we have a small left shift, the 'A' is only half a regular

sized key away from the shift key. A nice small distance to travel

* again with the small left left key, the big left shift key is

only half a regular sized key from the colon/semi-colon on which the

right little finger sits.

* however, if you apply the layout you suggest, the left shift key

is under half the right shift key

* ... but the left shift key is now one and a half keys away from

the semi-colon. The right little finger has a long distance to travel,

making reaching for it take longer and be more of a pain.

So there's a very convincing argument to go for the standard UK layout

with small left shift and \| on the left. What's the convincing

counter argument that lead you to your chosen design?

I'm presuming that what you've applied here is the cost-effective

quick-fix and that there is no other argument for your choice. I can

completely understand this choice given the circumstances, but I don't

think its going to work for me I'm afraid.

['Ottovelo' commented I should just buy a Mac. I have removed his stupid Apple fanboy remark. Seriously... why not say but an Acer, Asus, Lenovo,, Samsung... and whilst we're on that, where's the delete key on a Mac? And why are " and @ in the wrong places on UK mac keyboards? Not as bad a design flaw as this, but utterly frustrating none the less.]

[

DEAR murilo A, dgua, korobeiniki, jorgepinto, cliph, mentor972, ramobjesus, raphy, zolinovat and every other MAC FANBOY out there,

Thank you sooooo much for your kind advice in telling me to 'get a mac'. Its so awfully sweet of you to be so kind and helpful.

Yes, I have considered buying a mac before. My wife has a mac which I bought her, my dad also has a mac which I bought him.

I hate my wife's mac. It has a backspace button but no delete button. It has one mouse button and forces me to press a key with the button rather than having a right mouse button. The @ and " are in the wrong places for UK users. You can't make windows fullscreen. Its slow. It crashes when playing DVDs. We have to cover it up at night as its glow 'throbs' and doesn't let me get any sleep.

Also, this laptop cost me £650. A similarly spec'd mac would have cost £949 (and that's still not as good spec as this).

Lots of love,

Jake

PS: I've deleted a lot of your helpful 'buy a mac' comments from this page. If you want to advertise, go do it in your own space, not mine

PPS: If you fancy trying to convert me you can of course send me a Mac for free. Just don't be surprised if a video of me smashing it to bits appears on the Internet soon after.

Took a few shots of the keyboard while he was playing but didn't turn out too good and I was diistracting him with my camera LOL..

so liked this shot better without the finger movement.

A slight crop, highlighted the white keys more.

It was a lot of fun to work in a different scale (as opposed to minifigs), and I think I'll revisit it soon. I'll be posting a closer look at the figure in the coming days over at powerpigbuilds, as well as a Lego Digital Designer file of the entire set-up.

Follow me on Facebook.

Some friends have an Apple computer and to me it looks like a work of art! The neat little wireless keyboard is beautiful. The keys are set in what looks like satinised stainless steel.
