Almost-Touch Typing
Chatting about touch-typing unlocked a memory.
I was about 14, and got to live in Sweden for a month. Mobile phones were not a thing yet, and I kept in touch with my friends and family via email. I didn’t own a laptop, of course, but I could use my host’s PC.
Translit1 is a pain to type and read, so I set up Cyrillic keyboard layout. Naturally, there were no Cyrillic markings on keycaps, so I tried to touch-type, keeping my eyes on the monitor. It didn’t work well.
