Simple and very nice!
i wonder if adding the possibility to lose the rings and die only when hit while having no rings left just like in a real Sonic game would add more fun.
The problem with electric leaf blowers is that they're no good for people who need to blow leaves all day; and most of the leaf blowing is (in my experience) contracted out rather than done by home owners.
I have an electric blower that I use for getting leaves off my decks (you can't rake a deck and it's actually a remarkable pain in the ass to brush leaves off a deck) but if I got a contractor in to do my garden (which I don't, they just get mowed over) then they would certainly have a gas blower.
Dewalt has battery packs that are quickly interchangeable and pods with rows of batteries that can be recharged inside a car or truck while on the go. I'm hoping this becomes adopted more and more as the tech is already here.
I'm in Australia and someone near me has an electric one.
Although quieter than the gas ones, it's still far from silent and the noise is still annoying but higher pitch. Like a high-pitched vacuum cleaner noise.
Most people have the much louder gas ones though, they're the worst, and anecdotally the people operating the gas ones seem to rev them up and down more which makes it even more annoying.
Every time I hear one, I have nothing but negative thoughts about the person using them, and disgust for the society that allows them to ruin the environment for such minimal benefit.
A rake works almost silently... but then you can't irritate everyone within a kilometer radius.
Blind people would be fine as they wouldn't be wearing the glasses. Being physically unable to see the ads and purposely hiding them, are two different things.
The same happens with Jira. It's a nightmare since if you press escape to quit the emoji mode, you abort your input and lose focus. There should be a way to configure that shortcut to whatever suites you. Anyway i don't get why web apps bother implementing their own emoji input, the operating system does it already (the windows key + ; shortcut for example).
And to reply to those who simply ask people to change their habit: it's rude. Imagine the other way around: all the English typing people having to insert a space before a : for whatever reason, would that makes sense to you?
Same. I can't remember why exactly I switched, but I recall space bar being more of a gamble whether I would pause/unpause or scroll down the screen. K seemed to work better.
For me, if the play/pause button has focus, then the video starts playing for half a second and then pauses, because the button activation and the hotkey cancel each other. "k" does not have this issue.
