Thinking about it, I honestly think my Majestouch might be the oldest thing I own. 10 years of almost daily usage and I wouldn't be surprised if it did 10 more. I did replace the keycaps with PBTs in 2015, as the stock ABS caps were fa

Sounds like the problem exists between keyboard and chair. Executing strange binary files from untrusted sources could ruin your day on Mac and Linux as well. It is only less common because market share is so small compared to Windows, and

I disagree, it doesn't result at all in a "net increase" of lawfulness, it's just an extra person breaking the law and driving badly. UK highway code is pretty clear on when it is acceptable or not to flash your headligh

In the UK you should only flash your high beams to alert other drivers to your presence. Using them as you describe could lead to a £1000 fine. I understand that people using them to warn drivers is also illegal, but two wrongs won't m

Check the laws in your local area first. Intentionally dazzling other drivers may be illegal and can carry a much higher fine (sometimes 10x more) than speeding, depending on country.

So you object to people speeding illegally, yet you have no problem with using your lights to illegally distract other drivers? How curious!
