His Spacebar Is My Enemy
August 29, 2017
I haven’t moved my laptop from my desk in almost two years. I am always scared of having something getting spoiled. Like a phobia that no one’s laptop ever crashed its hard drive in the world due to the movement but my act of doing so will become an exception. OR worst case, Windows 10 needs re-installation. I really don’t want to go through the stress of installing all the heavy editing softwares or worrying about transferring data into a new drive or doing all the customization etc etc…Therefore, I am sticking (rather clinging) to my four years old Dell XPS 15 (although I desperately need a lightweight much faster MAC for convenience.)
Well, since I have decided to write outdoors, I have to compromise on the situation by accepting Mekel’s laptop only for the outdoor (Oh boy, what a pain!) And to tell you the truth, it’s driving me insane since its existence. The stupid spacebar requires some extra pressure to skip a space for the next word. When I fail to do that, the words become conjoined twins or triplets and I have to repeatedly move back to perform the separation procedure bringing cursor in between and give the spacebar a special treatment. It was sent to the mechanic twice for the fixture but according to him he never faced such problem. True. In front of him, the damn laptop behaved very well and successfully deceived him into believing that ‘everything was fine.’ It happened both the time. (Just like dogs become obedient in front of a vet.) Apparently, I was not ‘using’ it right. Worse was when the mechanic tried to teach me ‘how to’ use a keyboard.
Well, telling you all this have made me forget what I had to write in the first place (Just like yesterday).
