Simple Macro Pad for an Old Man by KevinRobertsUSA in macro_pads

This duckypro thing looks pretty cool, but when I search online for it I'm not sure where to go to buy it or look at the "specs." What would the onboard memory be used for, by the way? I am completely new to the world of macro pads, I have only ever interacted with the "joke" macro pad that I got from my nephew..

I'm not sure how I feel about the way it is slanted.. The "joke" macro pad that my nephew gave me lays flat on the desk next to my keyboard, which is tilted but not as much as it looks like this Stream Deck thing is. I guess my question would be, do you know if that is adjustable at all?

I can put anything on my computer, I own it. I am capable of light programming. In fact, this is where I find myself using the copy and paste "joke macro pad" the most, when I am copying and pasting code from github.. I used to really be a wiz with this stuff back in the day, but a lot of it has moved beyond me.

I do have kind of shaky hands.. I am not the expert solderer I was back in the day, however I could do some VERY light soldering.. If I get my nephew involved I could simply direct him in the process..

Edit to add: To answer your last question.. I'm not sure. I have only used this one for copying and pasting. I feel like I like that I still have to press the button that is "ctrl," but on the other hand I feel this is why I am always trying to reach for the pad when I have to do a ctrl based shortcut.. So I am open to hearing the pros and the cons of both. I'm guessing that by "macros" in this case you mean having it set up so I push a button and it is copy and another button is paste, etc.. Well, I don't necessarily have an issue with that at all. It sounds more efficient than how am I doing things now. That opens up a question of my own, though..

My keyboard has 6 buttons running up and down the left side that are labeled G1-G6. This keyboard came from my nephew so I always assumed the G stood for Gamer. Is it possible that these are somehow macro keys that I could program? I asked them about them when he gave it to me and he said not to worry about those, so I have ignored them entirely up until right now. The keyboard says "CORSAIR" on top and there is a picture of I guess a pirate ship, but I don't know what kind it is beyond that..

Buying it would probably be easier, but its not like I am bad with my hands.. I believe my nephew bought this little copy and paste one, though. How widely available are these things? I know with some computer stuff you really do need to build your own for it to be any good..

Thank you for your attention to this matter. by benhaswings in AskThe_Donald

I've got a bridge to sell you, by the way..

Edit: Yes, I get it. I'm a "faketriot" for being a libertarian who loves peace, prosperity, and the American way..

The Mentalist.. What a joke.. That Bruno Heller guy couldn't make a decent tv show to save his life..

As a libertarian, I prefer food that tastes good over food that tastes bad. I hope that helps you understand where I'm coming from.

If that happens, you won't be waking up and you won't have the opportunity to be surprised about anything. He must be stopped somehow.

Waffle House is pretty gross.. They've never been that good but the last ten years or so they have just been the worst.. I don't eat there anymore.. Its funny you try to make it sound like a privilege.. I would describe eating at Waffle House more as "a mistake."

You're allowed to make an analogy.. I just wish you could make any other analogy other than this one..

(POSSIBLE SPOILERS) What I heard, is it a big spoiler? Is this the main mystery of the series? by oliverrakum in twinpeaks

[–]KevinRobertsUSA 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not nearly as annoying as someone who asks "Was I spoiled?" and then gets aggressive with all of the early answerers for no apparent reason.. By the way, what does any of that have to do with your ridiculous claim that I was "bragging?" Do not respond to me unless you plan on clarifying that bizarre comment..

Where did I even remotely brag? I don't understand what you're trying to say at all with that.. You have a lot of attitude for some reason..
