And again, nobody gives a shit when he says that.
I think it's funny that someone can just mention the word "Chiropractor" and without fail the word "Quack" or "Fraud" soon finds its way into in the conversational flow. Such hate for people who just do their best to make people feel better. I personally have only been to a Chiropractor once. It made me feel better for a day or two but it didn't cure anything. Personally I'd rather go get a deep tissue massage but that would probably will cost more than a visit to the chiropractor. So should we rant about all those evil dishonest masseuses out there and their evil bogus science?
What usually happens during a "legitimate" doctor visit is that you complain about some symptom, the doctor picks some pharmaceutical that is designed to treat that symptom, scrawls its name on a slip of paper and sends you on your way. You take the magic pill and the symptom may subside but nothing has been cured. Quackery? Fraud? Of course! the whole "science" of medicine is worthy of our disdain.
Why is no one complaining about their DVRs allowing them to skip over annoying television advertisements? I guess the majority of the slashdot audience doesn't have a stake in TV advertising revenue so they are perfectly fine with that handy little piece of tech.
Who the hell is "Mississippi Bill" and why does he care about software sales? He should probably devote more of his time to planning his upcoming battles with Minnesota Fats and the Cincinnati Kid.
I know a guy who was diagnosed with ADHD and prescribed Adderall (an amphetamine.) We play FPS games from time to time, and I can definitely tell when he's off his meds. When he's on the Adderall he frags the living bejeesus out of everyone in the game, if he's off it he's just an average player.
So would he be disqualified from these "e-sports" events?

Gah, didn't you even read the summary? he's a guy with gigs at startup Milo and The Register, who you won't catch doing any recreational programming.

I haven't used the VS help system since 6 either, but it's damn easy to just google it anyway.
Or you could just pry those keys off, like I've done on every keyboard I've ever owned
