    Apple, please make a new 12" Macbook for those of us who travel and want the lightest weight possible. Less than 2 lbs, thinner than the Air, but without the compromises of the Neo…

    this is fun. my first test hits 125wpm. bursts up to 162wpm. 100% accuracy. seems too easy, though -- no capitals, nums, etc?

    More accurate would be to call it TikTok for Links, not for text, as text without links isn't allowed.

    For years now I have used "-pinterest" on every regular search term I utilize (I bake that into any Google bookmark). Would applaud the removal of Pinterest from search results.

    Trying this out. I like it more than I thought I would. But a couple comments: 1) The sounds appear to all be the same, regardless of key. Seems there should be some subtle variati…
