Anecdotal, about 15 years ago I had good success with using USA site ASINs on a European site but about 5 years ago I only got "not found" results so I stopped trying and do the "try typing in the name and hope for the…
And weirdly, if there were no trees around [it], it wouldn't even be [called] a forest. I would love to hear from a botanist/banana-related person what a bunch of banana plants are called. Are there similar differing…
I always assumed the check digit was included as safeguard for barcode scanning. Upon a quick reading of the Wikipedia article on EAN-13 it appears that there is some parity to determine the direction of the scan (i.e.…
This is amazing, fun and educational in one package! Thank you! Sorry this post got very long ;-) Having difficulty settings like * tourist main streets / squares, maybe some (renowned - although that might take some…
TIL: nocp is so much shorter than nocompatible :-) I just really really wish my minimal comfortable setup would not need to include set mouse= on all "newer" machines/vim versions :-\
On my Ultimate Hacking Keyboard I have a mapping of (left)space+q to produce Esc which for this combo I hit comfortably with my left hand thumb + ring finger. On other keyboards I find fishing for the Esc key with the…
I'm guessing you want :%s/^pick/s/ to replace "pick" at the start of line with "s" on all lines? If you execute it once in vim you can recall it later with just typing :%↑ and confirm with Enter. As for the top of the…
I have no idea about the odds and didn't bother to look up the timeline but I can give you some anecdata and tell you exactly why I might have theoretically been the 4th lurker-become-excited-commenter for this post,…

For opening hours I now often use http://openpoimap.org/ It can be a challenge sometimes to find the right category to activate to get the markers but when using the search box it usually tells you in brackets which…
I thought that would be a big problem for me, too, being used to inverted-L shaped enter keys basically my whole computer life. After a few days I stopped worrying because the UHK enter key is actually easier to reach…

I have the UHK with Cherry MX Brown switches and my old MS Natural (105KB?) which I had purchased second hand. I feel that my UHK keys require less force than the Natural. My Natural has a bit more prominent click…
Preamble: I've so far only used my UHK for "regular text" usage, i.e. writing text, CLI, browsing and some light wasd + trackball gaming... I've also activated an option for the left Mod key so that pressed alone it…
Thanks for pointing that out! I've always thought it was depending on how far from the vertical edge (i.e. current value) I click that I either get a "drag" (if clicked close enough) or a "set / drag&set" (clicked…
