    Hah, I am sure "Double S", O umlaut and all the rest of 'regional' (in this case - German) letters can be typed by pressing CTRL + "key here", probably something like ctrl+S = β, ctrl+o = ö. I am sure Galen's keyboard is the same as your. :^)

    Also I wrote "regional" because almost in every language in Europe there are some special characters used one in a single language (sometimes more) and this is how we type "ą, ś, ć, ż, ź ł" etc. in Polish.

    So, nope - Germans don't use any special keyboard made just for them ;D

    Yes we do, we have our own QWERTZ style keyboard - also, what's so difficult about typing on a keyboard that you learned to type on? It's not like you english folks have any unique letters at all, all that's different is the location of Y and Z, and some minor non-letter buttons.

    lol woot, wouldn't it be easier if it's uses ctrl + something? I thought it's like that everywhere in EU.

    So you have β and all umlaut characters on your keyboard? Somehow I can not imagine to have all Polish letters like that..

    Yeah I saw that but thought it's not real lol.
    Also just noticed i fucked up and we press Alt not, ctrl :D but whatever if you don't use it. It just seems weird to me.

    Btw now I have no idea why our keyboard have an option to swap language to German.. Ya know, if we press twice CTRL+Shift, it changes some letters and we can type all German characters. When I press for example ";" it gives me ß.

    No idea lol For now I can not understand why they have created a keyboard specifically for the Germans..

    ... because we have unique letters? also, there's a couple QWERTZ layouts, for different languages as well
