When posting terminal output, copy the output and paste it here, wrapped in three (3) backticks, before AND after the pasted text. Like this:
```
pasted text
```
This will just cause it to be rendered like this:
Sed
sollicitudin dolor
eget nisl elit id
condimentum
arcu erat varius
cursus sem quis eros.
Instead of like this:
Sed sollicitudin dolor eget nisl elit id condimentum arcu erat varius cursus sem quis eros.
Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.
Thereby increasing legibility thus making it easier for those trying to provide assistance.
But I have tried those already but randomly it starts to do it again and sometimes restarting fixes it. Im coming from ubuntu where the above tips helped and had the command run every start up just incase. But for whatever reason it just breaks. If ctrl is spammed it makes my entire keyboarded unusable. To get it in the state its in now I had to take apart my macbook unplug the keyboard enable ssh and did the things above. then put it together. again it sorta works but its spotty (but for some reason way better) im wondering if thier is a more extreme way to disable it.
Background
My sister spilt all over this laptop the Shift and FN dont work at all, Alt works like half the time and control just spams. My guess is that its unrelated to the spill and is a tear in the keyboard as ive taken the key off to examine. I traded my airpods to my sister as she couldnt disable keys in mac os and thier are no good keyboard replacements. Im kinda stuck with a really nice macbook but nearly useless due to this problem. Again cant replace the board
