   Maybe I'm a minority, but I've been happy with my 10-year-old Das Keyboard (cherry blue) for home usage and 4-year-old FILCO Majestouch (cherry brown) for the office. They're "boring" - they don't have anything

   Uber charged me $95 out of nowhere and I've fought their customer service for a month without any satisfying resolution. I'm trying to delete my account but it's being blocked because I disputed the $95 charge. For cases like

    I know this isn't contributing to the discussion, but Vimium extension is honestly my only reason to keep using Chromium-based browser. I should give this a try.
