Yesterday I accidentally learned that you can reposition the closed captions on YouTube videos. I waa at the Smartboard talking about how the cursor and my finger were a couple of inches apart, and I accidentally dragged the captions of a YouTube video that we were watching.

      I do the same when wiping my phone. Some time ago I wiped it carfully and suddenly all the colors changed until i tapped the screen again.

    I was looking at someone’s photos on an iPhone and we both discovered you could cut parts of the image out with a long press and drag (IIRC.)

    That you can rotate your entire screen by 180° on Windows. I forget the shortcut key but I did panic a little when it happened the first time.

    I learnt (the hard way):

    • There are electrified fences
    • You don’t learn to wheelie while clipped in
    • Some dogs shouldn’t be touched
    • Binging on sugar free candy will keep you close to the toilet.

    Just recently I found out that my new razer mouse can enable/disable scroll wheel indexation by pressing the small button next to it.

        Picture 18 y/o me in the 90’s with my new Marin Bear Valley SE and trick wellgo clipless pedals. No YouTube at the time, so had to figure stuff out intuitively… so I started to practice doing wheelies (while clipped in), and before you know it, I overshoot it a bit and my inexperience getting loose from the pedals had me land hard on my back.

        Now doing tricks with the bike is second nature, but it did take some bruises. Just remember to cover the rear brake ;)

    A multimeter in amp mode acts the same as a regular wire. So you can use the probes as a means to generate a signal. If there is a god, and it is an engineer, then I am probably going to hell for this.

    That I can change the cursor position when typing by sliding left and right on the space bar (key?)

    And also if you long press the enter key it brings up a shortcut for emojis/gifs
