Ohhh baby, I'm using an actual computer for the first time in a... couple of days? Uh. Feels more like it's been a week.

It's nice. So much easier. So much less RSI. Even if this laptop has a keyboard that I find somewhat tricky to use.

RSI?

[Reelya]

You know that google is a thing, right?

[TheBiggerFish]

I do indeed know that Google is a thing, but Google being a thing doesn't preclude me from wanting to hear the answer from the person who brought it up.

We have achieved a new height of laziness today.

Although, googling acronyms like "RSI" doesn't sound like it'd get you far, considering people reuse the same acronyms all the damn time for different things.

From the context he's probably talking about repetetive strain injuries, not really stupid ideas, or red-space index

So I feel better about not using my old method of putting a "cover" image on my posts about our porch spiders on imgur, after seeing a comment calling me brave and noting they have arachnophobia, but that they are less scared of spiders now!

Robotic Spider Invasion?

And that too.

whats rsi yoink

[Yoink]

Ooh. I meant Repetitive Strain Injury. I thought that was the most common usage of the acronym... apologies!

[Reelya]

Of course, when I suggested googling it, I already googled it. From that you can look at the top two links:

#1 Yoink was happy to get a proper keyboard because he wouldn't have to deal with Roberts Space Industries the makers of Star Citizen.

#2 Yoink was happy to get a proper keyboard because he wouldn't have to deal with Repetitive Strain Injury, a medical condition.

Take your pick on which one you think is more likely (hint: out of the 10 google hits, 7 are about Repetitive Strain Injury, and is a well-known medical condition, whereas Roberts Space Industries only started around 2012).

[Harry Baldman]

Google search results are calibrated for the individual user, though. What shows up for one person doesn't necessarily for another.

Though googling things before asking is overall a good idea nevertheless.

[Eric Blank]

Really? Their calibration must be shit, then, because Roberts space industries shows up first for me too, and I've never had any interest in star citizen.
