I haven't gotten down to the 40s, but my daily driver is a 62-key Dactyl Manuform Mini. Admittedly, 3 of those keys are sound driven, so I could see getting down to 58 pretty easil…

The MTV show Remote Control had a round called "Dead or Canadian", which has morphed into pub quizzes as "Dead or Canadian, Both or Neither?", which is shockingly tricky at times.

There are some shots that you just can't make without sweeping... particularly downweight hits where you're trying to exaggerate the curl by sweeping the outside after you squeak b…

There are multiple aliases. For instance, I use !yt for YouTube (just checked and !youtube also works), and !twitch for Twitch. I'll agree with the parent in that it's very rare th…

In this situation, CPM is likely based on impressions, not clicks.

I work in Grocery IT. We generally assume you have to have two self checkouts in order to meet the customer/item throughput of one staffed checkout. And even then, I'd tend to put …

Bricolage in the late noughties was this. Salon ran it for a fair amount of time. The company I work for currently uses it, although I think we're one of the last ones, and since i…

I imagine most (like us) are just staying put until a clear alternative is present. There's no rush to get off of Drupal 7. Security updates are still flowing, the module environme…

Currently, they're projecting 85% of all combinations will have been purchased for this upcoming drawing.

The cost of reshipping + cost of wrapping + cost of time of wrapping is probably getting close to $6 an item.

Assuming one person would hit both term limits: 2 6-year terms in the Senate plus 3 2-year terms in the house would be 18.

I started using Lastpass when I switched jobs and the company I moved to used it. The ability to share logins with people/groups without actually exposing the password is wonderful…

Yes, but the problem is you hit that no-mans-land between "I'm going to just format text in a readable way" and "I'm going to try to make this look nice", and missed both. If you'r…

In addition to the reasons you've stated, an additional one is that there are fewer questions for your opponents to use to reach over half of your total. Hitting the two daily doub…

I think Ken nails the real issue when he mentions this isn't the first "Daily Double hunter" the show has seen. Realistically, excluding Chuck Forrest, who was bouncing around the …
