I think scroll lock is even more useless....it doesn't have a function at all...I use insert sometimes (to pasting into the git bash on windows for example )

@Salmakis Most people just want to use one insert mode forever and only ever change it by accident.
Sort of like caps lock and num lock

I'm amazed to see so many people finding keys that are less useful than SysRq. :-)

@matsaki95 It probably increases the steam pressure in the boiler of a mainframe, so that the card puncher gets more power. Not sure though...

SysRq is useful under Linux

If you never had to use it, you're playing too safe ^—^

I use insert everyday. Then again I have it remapped to open up the terminal.

I've literally never had to use Scroll Lock. So I find it the perfect key to bind OBS to start/stop recording. Handily, the Scoll Lock light goes on to let me know that the recording's started.
