[text] Is ♞ even on the network's character map II: Sayaka Miki's Computer Class
hold on lemme put on my ~serious typing mode~ for this
Hello there, fellow residents of the tower! ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ My name is Sayaka Miki, and I'm here to teach you how to use a computer.
If you can see this, congratulations! You've already mastered the steps of reading and looking at a screen, and of navigating your way TO this handy guide.
First, let's cover the common mistakes.
1 - No, there aren't people inside the strange little box! I know, I know.
2 - Yes, it really does relish your cries of frustration when you fail at using it. That's a computer's secondary power source.
3 - Do you see a key that says "Shift?" There are two of them, and (via holding one down while pressing another key) they let you Use Proper Capitals and access some other c**| $ymb@|$.
4 - There's a really big blank key. That's what you do to keep yourwordsfromlookinglikethis. Hold it down to get more space!
5 - That weird red squiggle that pops up sometimes? That means you've spelled something wrong.
And here's a special rule from a guest speaker:
"Don't forget the magic of the goddamn punctuation keys.
That dot on the keyboard? That's how you end a sentence. That question mark on the keyboard? That's how you ask a question. You know, like a normal person."
That's all I can think of for now - but I'll be editing this! After all, it's for everyone's benefit~.

no subject
though if you're using both hands it's usually not too difficult - but ~proper typing procedure~ is a whole other bag to learn
k so, for spelling though:
you've got your mouse, right?
and you usually use the left button to do things with that
but if you hover over the word with the squiggles under it and use the right button, it'll bring up some words that might be the right way to spell it
it doesn't always work but it helps
yup it's a face (*´・v・) you can invent them yourself with some ingenuity and using the alternate symbols, like (*u*) is pretty easy to make.
