    I think the keyboard on my T430s is the best keyboard I have ever used. It feels perfect to use. I love it and I get annoyed with anyone else's laptop. I haven't had any of your pr…

    Are you confusing row headers and column headers? I have the same version as you and the row headers got funky when zoomed out.

    The thing that always drives me nuts with YouTube ads is when I look up an ad (usually a movie trailer) and then I am forced to watch another ad before I watch the ad I wanted to s…

    Does anyone know the details behind the 21 day time period for declaring someone to be infection free? Is that some kind of biological max for how long the virus can live or is it …

    I understand that is massive, but aren't computers today doing things that seemed utterly impossible forty years ago?

    It would be cool if it was a product they sold though to big conference like settings. I am sure it would be easy to "game" but I bet people would still be thankful for the opportu…

    It is the price of a quality tennis racquet and comparable to running GPS watches which perform a similar function (though with different hardware and a different sport). Not to me…

    This is a great graph, but I think it would be neat if a y-axis was thrown in. My first thought was album sales or some other metric of popularity that help you find specific rappe…

    I find it humorous how you are more likely to trust the word of some blackhat organization over that of an established company with a reputation that it needs to uphold. Lying woul…
