Tell me youre a tech addict without telling me youre a tech addict - Pοιsonlεaf - Oct 4, 2025

Hey hey,

How are you a tech addict without telling me you're a tech addict?
For example, Everytime I connect to a local public network I can't help myself to scout around and see how it's running.
I don't have any bad intentions I'm just too curious to see how it's setup.

What about you? Do you have any small tells?

Honestly, the typing speed on a keyboard. I forgot sometimes that PC-users are reducing and people are more phone oriented.

What is your WPM? I'm sure you have tested it before.

Just tried a test now and got 96 WPM with 99% accuracy. I wouldn't say it's high but effective.

That's def. very accurate! I just had to google the world record and it's a stunning 305!!!! words per minute!
The avarage is around 40 WPM so you are still way above average!

I see no realistic reason to type so fast unless your a court transcriptor.

The person who has the world record has just trained himself to be the fastest typer and set the recond.
I mean it's pretty sweet having that world record on your name but like you said there no real point in being able to type that fast.

My backup plan has a backup plan.
Planning twice is just cautious.

Does speed testing random places count? I remember being shocked how fast my school was.

It's tech related isn't it?

So you can go days on end without interacting with technology as a compulsive behavior?

An addict would say that.
