If you don’t post the salary range, then the person most likely to apply is nobody. Stop wasting people’s time for your profit
You can always map the function keys to custom layers on the keyboards without them. I have a ZSA Voyager, and I created a layer for those function keys that don’t fit in a small 52 key split keyboard. It works great. I just hold down one of the thumb keys, and the functionality of the keys changes to a numpad on the right half of the keyboard and the F-keys and other function keys in the left half.
I used to think that until I got a ZSA Voyager and started using layers for the numpad. Now, I get the best of both worlds: ergonomics of a homerow setup, and a layer that gives me a numpad without having to move my hand to reach the numpad.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•San Francisco turned a beach road into a park. Drivers are not happy. On November 3rd, voters will decide whether or not the road should be reopened to carsEnglish
17·7 days ago100% agree. The solution is to add public transportation. Public transportation makes it more accessible than opening it for car access

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach?
41·2 years agoSpaniard living in the US here to clarify how our language works. Spaniards are the best at speaking their own language by definition. We make the language, and we decide how it evolves. When you say many Spaniards suck at speaking their own language, I think you are getting confused with the many dialects that exist within the Spain. Some dialects, while being perfectly and dramatically correct, are very hard for non-native speakers to understand. Pronunciation of letters may change from dialect to dialect, but the grammar is basically the same.
The authority that sets the Spanish language grammar rules (Real Academia Española - RAE) is in Spain, and it’s rules only apply to the “standard” Spanish dialect spoken in Spain, which is also known as Castillian. However, there are multiple other dialects of Spanish within Spain (and multiple other languages that are not Spanish - Galego, Catalan, Euskera, etc). Other countries that speak other Spanish dialects choose if they want to follow or not the rules set by the RAE, and many Spanish dialects do not follow those rules. Some Spanish speaking countries have their own organizations to define their Spanish dialects. There are dialects of Spanish that are very different from the original Castillian Spanish. For example, listen to Argentinian Spanish, and compare it to Castillian Spanish. The difference is noticeable even for non-Spanish speakers. They also use a slightly different grammar.








I’ll be just returning the favor. Those MAGAts won’t shut up about Trump either
