  1. Re:thumb return on Ask Slashdot: Keyboard Layout To Reduce Right Pinky/Ring Finger Usage? · · Score: 1

    ohh witty a grammar troll on slashdot

    fine, keep rockin vi like it was 1976, least I am not holding a button for caps two keys away from the caps lock, cause you have tunnel vision so bad from being an anal examiner, that you cant see the keyboard light out of the corner of your eye

    and no fuckwit, I DONT want 1124864 key combinations, as I already stated, more than I care to remember, I dont think that my coding is so precious to the universe that mankind will suffer if I point and click at a menu the few times I actually need to use most commands outside of find

    when writing a few letters in caps I always hit it, then again I dont use archaic style editors that require me to hit more than a alt combo to access all of its features regardless of case

    my model M has 104 keys, alt, ctrl and ctrl alt gives me 1124864 possible combinations, more than I care to remember

    yea ok, second time explaining this, cutting power to brakes != disabling them, I know that, but if you could not stand on them hard enough to stop the car WITH power assist, how the hell are you going to without it

    never said it disabled the brakes, it just cuts power to them, and what if your car doesnt have a key, but one of those cute little pushbuttons?

    Tesla, you make expensive toys for people who just want posh toys, stufu your customers dont care, they can afford not to

    NY times, go fuck yourself, your not worth even looking at IF I could look at you

    EV car nuts, its nothing new ev's have been around since before gas cars were popular, they still suck 100 years later + charging stations are a serious random pain in the ass to geocache

    when you car is going apeshit down the interstate fuck the engine, turning off the key (if you even can these days) locks your sterring wheel and cuts power to the brakes

    most of the time, but I personally find widescreens to be mostly useless for large text displays unless stood in portrait mode (IDE's like visual studio do make use of the side area, I guess)

    maybe I dont have 1037 nested if's in a billion line widget, but its sort of rare for me to go much over 80 columns

    I have been in plenty of modern cars including ones with voice, voice sucks for me, as I have a fairly deep voice which it doesn't hear half the time, and I have slight speech problems, so it doesn't understand me the other half

    other than style and some battery improvement the exciting advancements of the electric car is that it is mostly the same as it was in the early 1900's

    1) charging can be cheaper, but you have to plan well in advance

    2) out of my way? where the fuck do you live, there are 9 gas stations on the direct road I use to go to work, and where the hell do you go? I can get 380 miles out of 10 gallons of gas, for me its about 35 bucks once a week when I go for groceries, and even they have a gas station out front. I do have to go to another town out of my way and find the one mc donalds that has 2 stations.

    3) wireless electricity has been around since the late 1800's, its already been over 100 years, does near constitute another 100?

    4) no it just uses electricty which is constantly spitting out pollutants and ruining our air, more load on the grid means they have to produce more electricity... and guess what that means.

    I dont hate the electric car, but if thats the best argument you can come up with to buy a basic car with a luxury price tag that going to crap its batteries in 5 years, then your going to have to do a lot better

    best case, its equivalent to a cheap tablet, minus wifi and screen
