Or.... bookmark CC? No nothing needed.
It's one of my homepages :afrog:
Hurry up with those wave physics, Mr. Wave Theory!
Tell me... What are these bookmarks you speak of? :confused: I memorize all my favourite URL's. :(
I wish there was an easy way to see how many bookmarks I have... must be at least 80.

How exactly does one deduce clear from ctrl? Do they throw out the 't' and flip the 'r' and 'l'?
so does that make it: clear + alternate + delete for them?
I never knew Alt was short for alternate but I guess that makes sense. What else would it be. Can't think of anything else that would make sense.
Altar.
There are some really cool funtions that are only accessible if you sacrifice a goat on the key.
If I remember correctly IBM called it 'Alternate' to compete with Apple's 'Apple' keyQuote:

You're right, Apple keyboards do have the 'Alt' key that's called the option key. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_KeyboardQuote:

Then there's regex.
I pronounce it 'rej ex', is that correct?Quote:

3. Users that take a screenshot of their screen, print it out, scan it, and email the scanned version.
Moar pet peeves pl0x!
Pet peeve:
Voicemail.
When your users delete the mail you sent them and then call up to request a copy of the mail that you sent them.
When I download a beta version (3.6) of firefox to discover it has killed most of my add ons.
When you find an addon listed in open source category, but are not able to find the source for the add on.
When people mix-up the term "setup" with the act "set up". Ie... "Watch me setup this computer."
Probably same people that pronounce wash as worsh, but have no problem pronouncing cash correctly, though I doubt they'd manage cache (I'm just being fastuous at the moment)Quote:

:mad:
Other folks taking credit for my work. :) :)
Corollary: Other folks blaming me for their mistakes.
