I use them fine with my left hand. There's no reason to stay on home row if you're doing a lot of copy and paste. Of course, if you're doing that much copy and paste, using an extension that allows VIM shortcuts would be much faster.

The trick is not electing a troll.

The "light truck" exemption is a huge problem, and needs to be repealed.

Big cars also reduce everyone else's visibility.

It would be so much more interesting to see the % of dollars claimed.

Does negging his customers count as an idea?

I mean, they are also responsible for making news a for-profit enterprise, which has arguably ultimately killed it.
