Ransomware is also a better sort of arbitrage against the legal system. If you somehow got caught and prosecuted you didn't do a violent crime, so that has to probably help you somewhat. Of course you did do a federal crime so you have

Home and End are available almost everywhere in macOS with Ctrl+a and Ctrl+e. When I use someone else's computer I inevitably end up typing A and E within about 2 minutes since I'm used to caps lock as control. So I guess every tw

Your strongest fingers having the most buttons makes the most sense to me AND YET you had to switch to a Japanese layout to make it happen!! This is why I like Apple's relatively small 5U spacebar and why I eventually switched to ortho

I have hold/tap set up on all my modifiers on my Iris[0]. I got the idea from the (modern) Space Cadet[1] keyboard. From inside to outside my thumb buttons are (when held) Command, no hold key, Option, and Hyper (where hyper means all

It has a serial hybrid drivetrain: you charge the battery with your pedals. This is inefficient, naturally, but they claim it's far easier to make, which I tend to believe. But the idea of all of my hard-won watts getting wasted by the

The Dollop also covered him in episode 62! In addition to his freaky surgical quackery he was a pioneer in border blaster radio stations (operating in Mexico at higher power than the US's FCC would allow). He even got a law named after

Sure, I guess I'm imagining a thick enough coating where it looks like a very dark featureless surface under a transparent layer, which I think would look pretty cool. But that's not really clear coat so much as it is epoxy.

Wait can you not clearcoat it because it ruins the effect? Or is it somehow too weak to accept a clear coat?

Yeah high speed high altitude reconnaissance is simply not mission-appropriate. That's why Switch uses predator drones loitering in a tight loop pattern for surveillance and a quick strike.

Yep had that with facebook suggested friends. And we didn't have anyone nearly in common at all, the only connection is saving the phone numbers. Paid a lot to have pictures on my contacts; feel like a dummy.

Those are a ton of combining accents put together. Crucially: they don't make the line any taller—that's what makes them so hard to read! An integral should be a little taller than the line height but you still want the integral

I gotta think it's because all the math you mention cannot render within a normal line height. That's not the end of the world for rendering, but maybe that counts as a bridge too far in Unicode? Or maybe it just boils down to &qu
