I do...mostly. I hit Q and P with my ring fingers instead of pinkies. For AZ;/ and shift and enter I do use my pinky fingers always, except (as I've just noticed) when I'm typing a capital A or Z. I seem to almost always hit the left shift instead of the right, so I end up using my left ring finger to hit the A or Z in that case.

Hadn't heard of this company before; I'm quite interested in getting their (non-trackpad) mouse to replace my Logitech G502 Hero that's dying. Does anyone know any other companies making open-source (or at least DIY-friendly) mice to compare?

I've run into bizarre behavior with windows command lines plenty of times before, but I'd never put all the pieces together and realized that:

a) windows really does pass around unadorned monolithic strings containing the entire command line of an executed command, and

b) there's no parsing standard for command lines in windows

sigh, windows

I see we've hit the first E: Embrace. I'm betting it'll only be a few months until they're Extending the protocol. Any wagers on how long until we hit Extinguish? 3 years maybe?

Need someone who knows more about EU law to chime in here: does this mean valve et al will be forced to implement a way for users to resell/transfer games to other users?

From wikipedia:

China Daily is an English-language daily newspaper owned by the Central Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party.

Ah good, a trustworthy source.

 

The excellent PBS Spacetime - a physics and cosmology education channel - has released a new video detailing the effects and likelihood of supernovae in our stellar neighborhood.
