   It's almost like we can predict such things. Except we can't. But he making this claim makes me worry. Maybe he knows something.

   That's right, numeral M it is. MM - million, however mm - millimeter.

   I have to congratulate the author - apparently she doesn't have a slightest idea how intense a real sexual harassment can be. I'm glad for her, really. It was just a cowardly dumb joke, and a totally not funny one, but sexual hara

    No, altgr basically is not used while I still use it to have Russian over Ukrainian which has just few different letters іы їъ єэ ґ:-D I could set up a lot of symbols though altgt but they won't mostly much English layout. But I don&#x

    Don't worry it seems peculiar even for native like me :-) It's a bit less common now as it feels like Soviet era attribute (think Orwell's новояз (newspeak))

    You may call my opinion BS but it is harder due to the fact that additional letters take space off the symbols. Examples (assuming you use AltGr) Symbol; English; Russian , ; , ; Shift + . [ ; [ ; AltGr + х { ; Shift + [

    > I have 104 keys on my keyboard and 4 of them are modifiers. Yep, that's one way. But it make things harder. If you set up Alt to use as English layout modifier to type {} you need to press two modifiers now: Alt + Shift. However I

    I think it's an awful idea. Let's take Cyrillic languages, Ukrainian/Russian as an example. * Alphabet has 33+ letters, so there is no space left for programmer's favorite symbols on layout: @#$^&{}[]|~`<>. Yep

    There are class of keyboard like [1]. They are used for specific operator cases but I find fascinating the idea of implementing your own layout from scratch. Usually they have more keys then standard keyboard has. So you could arrange Greek

    Use a mail forwarding service. I can't recommend one for you because I used the one which is Russian language only. It added ~$60 to the price for service and insurance shipping across the Atlantic.

    It's funny that in your comment meaning to be as ridiculous as possible there are a few very sane ideas i.e. getting rid of caps lock and num lock keys which nobody uses and everybody is pissed of when they pressed accidentally.

    Middle mouse button is used for a lot things - paste, new tab click, scroll. If your mouse is prone to misclicks it's a shitty mouse. Disable middle button at all then.

    You are wrong. Suppose you are payed $350/month. Larger part of that money are gone spent for apartments and food. Still people do purchase $350 tablets because it's entertainment they can afford (they buy it for few years and don

    The idea is fascinating. However, cars can float right until water comes in and then they will drug you under the water. Not a very safe behavior. I doubt styrofoam or empty bottles will provide enough force to compensate mass of a steel fr
