Nor to mention the fact that if you do not have a cookie-cutter accent, the voice recognition stumbles, badly.

The first time I learnt to program I was in a little village in a desert (Karoo). I was about 11 at the time and they had a ZX81 and a Apple IIe. I spent the time in my dorm room writing out the programs on paper to type them in later. The year after I went to a different school and they had a Video Genie and a BBC…

Not fast... I can do fast enough (accuracy is another matter). It's more about comfort in the activity I spend more time in than any other... I still strain to type with my 6 fingers...

Yup, thanks for pointing that out, for me it's not so much speed, but accuracy as well as comfort in something I do almost all the time. I type reasonably fast with some touch-typing, but would have preferred to be able to have learnt to do so with more than 6 fingers. and much more accuracy. Typing was a subject…

15. Early typing class would have been the most most useful subject I never took.

Thanks, will look for it... it's been many years since I switched from 1Password, but I still kinda miss their great UX.

It is? Hmm.

Let's say our entire extended family lived in the southern hemisphere. It takes us 2 years to save up enough. It takes us a few days each direction to get over jet lag. So we usually go for a month or two to align with their summer vacations. We have no choice and are very responsible parents.

Mechanical does not automatically imply noise. They can be silent as well. It is all about the pressure curve. I fell in love with a Model M keyboard in the 80s before I even knew mechanical keyboards were a 'thing'. Try one out, and give one of the Monoprice ones a try (they are way cheaper and just as good).

Yup, I switched back from Ting (not that it was bad) since this plan is just so perfect for me at the moment. My wife is on the GVoice/hangouts setup, while I use a SIP provider (callcentric.com). Mine works better (less missed calls), but I lack the SMS/MSS support she has. Both systems work well with my Obi 100 I…

I've mainly stopped using Ting because my Nexus 5 used a different network type, and resulted in almost no reception when I needed it in the places I lived. I averaged around $28 / month on Ting and $30 on T-Mobiles (hard-to-get) "unlimited" 3Gb plan. I like Ting for many reasons, but T-Mobile was not bad either. Ting…

I find the Amazon ones pretty nice, nice cord, and the magnets are more useful than I thought they would be. The only problem I have with them is fit... they tend to drop slightly out of my ears if I lie back on the couch. I know the Sennheisers are generally excellent. I love their circumaural headphones. Have not…

I recently moved away from Amazon Glacier to using cloud syncing to a Google Drive account as a versioned backup system. It is much simpler, and as for restoring data, I know it is possible since it is a syncing solution (and I can just download it of sync it to my desktop as well if needed).

I had the same problem at home, and I found that it was some minor incompatibility... When I put an adapter in between (or run it through my AV receiver first) it works fine.

Can't really tell. Both look mostly similar. I've used both (used Emacs since around 1988) and VIM more often recently. VIM can do split windows, people just don't commonly do that I guess...

lol. Just saw him in "Blended" (horrible but fun) last night...

For one thing, finally allows us to run Java apps... since those are exclusively 64bit now. Otherwise not much else I would notice. (They say faster/smaller, but for me that's not a problem...)
