I thought everyone knew fn-backspace would delete from right on an Apple laptop keyboard, it's been that way since forever.
If you want to tweak the keyboard functionality even more you could use something like https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/document.html.en

After the update to Panther or whatever made my MacBook Pro completely unusable b/c it made it overheat and crash after 15-20 minutes of light use without Apple ever acknowledging the problem existed I just bought a gaming PC. Also now I can play more than a dozen or so games on my computer now.

quote:

Method actors tend to go to extreme lengths to get inside the minds of the characters they portray. For Ashton Kutcher, that meant adopting Steve Jobs's fruitarian diet for one month, a regimen based solely on, well, fruit. He's portraying the late Apple CEO in jOBS, a biopic set to hit theaters in April.

All that fruit—must be healthy, right?

Not exactly. "I ended up in the hospital two days before we started shooting the movie," Kutcher told reporters at the Sundance Film Festival. "I was doubled over in pain, and my pancreas levels were completely out of whack, which was terrifying, considering everything." Jobs died in October 2011, after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.

sometimes outsiders to the field try to apply the principles of their own field to that field

sometimes this results in great innovation

I Hackintosh'd a $1600 PC, does that mean I'm not poor, but just hosed in the head?

Seriously, though, I don't care how good iMacs are, I already have two loving monitors, so I don't loving need my computer to come built into one.

I would also totally hand assemble a laptop from parts if I could.

I don't throw out my old machines anyway, I just repurpose them. You know, since they're not Macs, they don't magically retain most of their original purchase value years and years later.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

I haven't included a floppy drive in the last two computers I've built, including the one I built in 2004. Believe you me, it sure was fun feeding SATA drivers to Windows XP before Windows Vista introduced loading drivers from a USB drive.
