  • They already do this. Skins have trade restrictions in the form of time delays after specific actions. Valve also clamped down on the features of their trading API.

    The bad news is that it's not an easy problem to solve and not solely in Valve's hands. But to say Valve has done nothing is straight up false. Have they done enough? Debatable, but there's no easy solutions.

  • My old Honda just won't die. I get an oil change every once in a while. And the battery has crapped out a few times in the last decade but that's it. I hear safety features have come a long way so maybe I should upgrade just for that. I get the feeling that I'll certainly miss the old Honda so I'm dragging my feet.

  • I've used Dvorak for years now (15 or so?). I find it far more comfortable for typing in English than qwerty. You don't have to reach as much to type common words because all the common letters are on home row. The less common a character, the farther it is from comfortable use. And it has a nice bouncy feeling because you often switch hands after one or two key strokes. When I have to use qwerty, I find it very uncomfortable to have to "spider" around with one hand for clusters of letters as I type.

    Now, the REAL downside of Dvorak in my opinion is that every shortcut, hotkey, and keybinding in the universe is designed for QWERTY layout. Playing a new game? Don't forget to re-map every key except M and A! Careful not to miss any! Game doesn't let you map a key to "comma"? Looks like you have to switch to QWERTY to play this game (and type in chat with it blegh)! Re-mapping is a huge pain and all the convenience of learning something like Vim is overshadowed by the keys getting scattered all over the place. I'm fine living with an awkward CTRL-C and CTRL-V, but for most people I can see why they wouldn't bother.

    tl;dr: DVORAK > QWERTY for typing in English, but it comes with annoying drawbacks

  • Same. I am available 9 - 5, but I tend to be actually working 10 - 4. It fluctuates depending on how badly management wants things. And of course there's the rotating on call schedule where sometimes I have to wake up in the middle of the night to confirm that a service my team owns is impacted by some other service's outage. FUN!

  • QFC used to make seltzer water flavored like root beer, Dr. Pepper (it was called "Hint of the Doctor Flavor which is downright hilarious), and cola. The product line was discontinued due to lack of popularity and I miss it every day.
