Windows has a "sticky keys" accessibility feature that is enabled by pressing "shift" many times. I believe it's intended for people who have a hard time holding multiple keys at the same time.
It's something that would be easy to trigger accidentally if you are using the shift keys to play pinball or type morse code.

- xp84 2y agoRight, I know, all OSs have those same features. I always disable them on my own computers because they get in the way when triggered accidentally, like with gaming. The poster I replied to suggested it’s evil to do so, and I’m confused why.
