Speak for yourself. I'm typing on a thinkpad at the moment, I use the trackpoint all the time. Once you've mastered it, you no longer need to move your hands between typing / movin…

Wouldn't Jupiter's orbit create some interactions?

Maybe large swaths of users wouldn't download enhancement suites if you actually listened to them? It took like 3 years to support the basic feature to "never group tabs" in the Ta…

Great so will you volunteer to support a high rise behind you overlooking your house and backyard, a methadone clinic to your left, and train tracks to your right? Throw in a homel…

My father mentioned that while working for banks, back in his day (~25 years ago), there were "guidelines" of how much you should donate to $bigNameCharity depending on your positi…

You should be upfront about his political bias (which is in his best interest as it is his source of revenue). Don't get me wrong I like his videos but I also like hearing from the…
