I worked retail in the late 90s-00s, and whenever I have to type in a string of digits longer than three I regret my tkl.

My cat, however, enjoys the extra real estate on the desk.

I kind of wish Duolingo would create a trainer that helps you practice shortcuts and hot keys. They never seem to stick in my brain asides from copy/paste, new tab, change focus.

That's interesting. What is your advantage moving the numpad?

I could kind of understand if it's a left handed thing, though I'm left handed and have always used right handed peripherals. Maybe I got beaten into the right handed world at a young age and never thought there was another option.

I wonder if my K:D ratio on CS:GO would improve if I assumed with my left hand...

I grew up with a Bally Astrocade from birth. My dad had bought the tape peripheral, but I don't think he knew what the hell to do with it. Just sat in the box.

We had dozens of cartridges for it though. I think he just liked buying new tech, because I never saw him playing it.

I think there will soon be a nostalgic wave of people degrading recordings to sound like mp3s that have been compressed to hell.

I can hear the jingle bell high hats already.

My favorite memory of that era was awkwardly asking my mom historical questions to get past the age block.

'Mom! Who was Nixon's vice president?' or something like that.

Hell, the written word destroyed untold generations of oral history.

We need to formulate an ideogram that even Florida man can understand.

Sounds like lyrics to a Soul Coughing song. Is M. Doughty around here, somewhere?
