  • Your Most Absurd Pet Peeves
    G Gustaf A

    While it doesn't drive me up the wall to quite the same degree as your hatred for miniature golf does I do have a huge annoyance with A.D./B.C. and have had it since I learnt what they stood for. "Anno Domini" is a neat sounding phrase in latin. Few may mean what it actually stands for, "in the year of our lord", but most everyone know it signifies year >0. On the other hand "before Christ" is just plain English. Why mix languages? Latin does have the term A.C., "ante Christum", to mirror A.D. but it doesn't see any use and there's no English "after Christ" term that's ever seen use as far as I know. This weird mishmash of languages is stupid and I hate it.

    I've used middle mouse to open new tabs for I don't know how many years but this is the first time I've heard of this! Learn something new every day :-D

    `Ctrl+W` does the same thing, at least in Firefox & Chrome, and a combo I would argue is far easier on the fingers to execute :)

  • Silly psychology question (in fictional novel)
    G Gustaf A

    To preface I have no education even near either film or psychology and am purely playing armchair expert here :laugh: While often used as tool to increase tension and maybe prolong the moment to let the audience digest the gravity of the situation I wouldn't call it a wholly unnatural behaviour. Like deer in headlights I know I've more than once frozen up in moments of sudden danger so it is a thing. Though I'd expect people prone to danger, like fictional seasoned adventurers, would have trained themselves to overcome the "freeze" reaction in favour of actually moving out of harms way.

  • Windows Explorer - Useful feature
    G Gustaf A

    I didn't know it was enabled for the explorer but `ctr+z` has become such an ingrained muscle memory for me that whenever I do a mistake, regardless of the software I'm using, I reflexively attempt to undo. While not always it does work more often than one might expect :laugh:
