What is and what keyboard?
I have a new split keyboard, which could be lifechanging: I have bad posture, and even after a day, it feels more comfortable for my back. There's one problem: it seems to have an undocumented kill-the-entire-OS feature, which can be reliably triggered by pressing [num lock].

I'm hesitant to name the keyboard because it's almost certainly my OS setup that's to blame... however, it's an R-Go Split. If you don't compile your own operating system, I'd say it's a wonderful choice. ;) And I probably just need to compile my own OS a little differently.

My split keyboard was pre-programmed with handy “start and stop media player” buttons which were easily triggered accidentally. You can imagine how well that went down when I was trying to frantically live code beats and some random iTunes track cranked up in hideous discord!

The only time I use num lock is to turn it back off after the os has turned it back on behind my back, so I can toggle column mode in intellij

Yes... and Gentoo in fact, since about 2004.

Disable the numlock key? If that's an ergodox, it's easily programmable

It's not, but I can play around with the keyboard mapping file in Linux anyway... as long as it turns out not to be a hardware issue.
