Ebay still shows your start date on your feedback page. Mine dates back to December 1999 and I believe that makes it my oldest still active online account.
I’ve been using Dvorak since the late 90’s. When I type on a qwerty keyboard, it feels like my fingers have to fly all over the place to hit all the keys.
With that said, Dvorak has a few gremlins. The most annoying are the y/f keys where I have to shift my hands slightly to hit those keys. The copy/paste ctrl-c and ctrl-v keyboard shortcuts are also a lot less convenient but I just deal with it. It’s also annoying having to rebind keys in pretty much every keyboard-heavy game.
I’ve never really thought of Colemak as a big enough improvement over Dvorak to relearn how to type on that layout, though if you’re looking to switch from qwerty it may be worth considering. The Workman layout seems interesting.
I’d be fairly certain the washing machine has a few sensors and a fairly simple computer program (designed by humans) that can make some limited adjustments to the wash cycle on the fly.
I’ve seen quite a few instances of stuff like that suddenly being called “AI” as that’s the big buzzword now.
I know what the 3/4 switch does on the back of a VCR.
I also know what a VCR is.
