    I had to take a physics exam in a room with these desks. The exam was on that super long paper too. After tearing off the formula sheet and setting that on your lap, trying to work out the problems and keep all your stuff organized was impossible. After hearing the 3rd calculator fall on the floor less than 2 minutes into the exam I just had to laugh out loud at the absurdity of the whole situation.





  • I have a couple of Logitech Mx Master 3S mice I use. One really nice feature is that you can ‘unlock’ the mouse scroll wheel so that there’s no resistance. Just spin it fast and it’ll keep scrolling for quite a long time.

    Actually this most recent version will do click scrolling when the wheel is spun at low speeds, but unlock and let the wheel fly when spun faster. Really great feature.

    I know it’s also not what you were asking about, but I don’t know of that feature in Linux.












  • When I was getting a new line for some relatives, I found that when going through the web checkout process you could select your phone number out of 5 choices before completing the purchase. I thought that was pretty bad design as it shows which numbers are most likely going to be new. It would be pretty easy to scrape that page and create a spam list.

    Sure enough, it didn’t take long for the new number to start receiving spam.
