What's A 'Scroll Lock' And Why Is It On My Keyboard?
Jeff Bauer writes "Today's article in The Straight Dope explains all
the weird keys that come with standard PC keyboards. Now if someone could just explain what the 'Alt Graph' key does on my Sun keyboard, enlightement would be at hand ..."
Holy shit. Stop hitting that key!
I have some sad news to bring you all this evening. I just heard this on MTV news that Trent Reznor (of the band Nine Inch Nails) was found dead in his New Orleans nineteenth-century home this evening. The death of the 38 year old is still to be determined. His final work can be heard on the Doom 3 soundtrack (Doom 3 is still scheduled for release around the first quarter of next year); he will still be remembered for revolutionizing music as we know it and his legacy will live on. Some sad news indeed; Trent was truly an American icon.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
It's BOXES, GOD DAMMIT! SERVERS! WORKSTATIONS! SYSTEMS! COMPUTERS!
B O X E S ! Not boxen! Not blog! Not hella! NOT KEWL!
STOP TWISTING OUR LANGUAGE! You sound like RETARDS! I'M BEGGING NOW! Mod this up to spread the w0rd!!!
But of course! Ever try the self suck and drink your own cum? That's a good one too!
Goddamnit Pantera fucking rocks. Take some LSD, listen to Pantera and see if you ever post here again!
I love the layout of my Toshiba notebook, part of the keyboard looks like this:
[Enter ]
[shift][PgUp ]
[up ][PgDwn]
[spacebar][ins][del][alt][left][down][right]
It makes sooo much sense, all the juicy keys are right in one tight bunch.
I'm a writer, a poet, a genius, I know it. I don't buy software, I grow it.
Shut up dickface. He can drink whatever the fuck he wants, okay?
Fuck you and your lame beer 'jokes'. Fucking prick.
Yes, I get that too. I figure it's just ball sweat, though why it smells so different to normal sweat I do not know. Sometimes I get the same smell there on a hot day without any masturbation at all.

I agree with you that this smell is fairly pleasant too. Perhaps it is in a similar way to how the smell of your own farts can be pleasant (but not to anyone else
Incidentally, when you cum on your chest/belly, have you ever left it to dry for a while? I find it forms an unusual second skin that feels rather nice to manipulate, especially on my nipples!
That should come in handy for slashdotters.
scroll lock key presses you without any apparent result!
This is not part of my post. It's my signature. I bet you're disappointed.
"Boxen" is a pseudo-word for drooling simpletons who live for Think-geek ads and the next kernel release. I am sorry this site provides such a warm, fuzzy place for you to be in.
On a somewhat related sidenote, I recall that certain NeXT machines (such as the one I own) came with keyboards that had no capslock key.
How was it implemented then?
By invoking Command Shift. A little light would turn on, and the shift served also as the caps key.
Talk about good engineering and saving space. It really makes sense to do it that way.
The Keyboard maps you!
Sorry, could not resist that one
You say you want a revolution....
