    The better argument is that many keyboards don’t have an Insert key. I usually use Shift+Insert myself because it’s more likely to work on all terminal types, including Windows and Linux, but have ran into times where I just don’t have an insert, like on my laptop and Chromebook. So yeah, I might switch to Ctrl+Shift+V as my go to.



  • Explaining that I’m a systems and infrastructure admin is actually easier for me than explaining my organization to people lol. Because it’s a local government agency that provides services to school districts, and people don’t really know we exist if they aren’t a district staff member themselves (and even then sometimes they don’t know!), and we’re a bit niche in our specific services, I usually just end up saying “school ISP” despite that only being a small part of it. 😂

    Many years ago, I went to my GP and she told me a story from when she was in med school, pre-internet. She had a really bad headache and went through with researching the cause. After hours of going through research papers and textbooks, she determined she had brain cancer. So even before WebMD have us all brain cancer, doctors were already self diagnosing it.



  • Yeah I quit WoW in 2009 and never went back, which would have been 15 years ago now, and lines up with what the OP was saying for timeline. I remember all the coming class changes that would homogenize things drastically, and already being rather annoyed with how things already were, I dipped without a regret, other than losing touch with friends from there. I’m only in contact with a few of them at this point and that’s a little sad, but we all move on eventually.
