How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Pretty keyboard: [link]

It looks like a mirror.

It's currently available only in a Japanese variant and only works with Windows computer, but will be released with an English, German, French and Italian layout later this summer. A Mac-compatible version will be available as well.

The price for a Cool Leaf keyboard that looks like it's from the future? About $318 (¥26,000). Vanity has its price doesn't it? It'll be on sale in Japan on May 13.

Quick bit of advice. I have a lightly trafficed website where I registered Com, Net and Org. I'm thinking this is overkill, and I should save the money, just renew com, and let whoever wants it have .org and .net. Any serious downside to this?

I think it looks professional to have all three, Typo. I do, for both my business and my personal domains, and the personal one is so lightly trafficked as to be unused. I basically have it for the email addresses. Generally registration by itself is cheap enough to make it worthwhile, I feel.

Actually, now that I think about it, I actually own 15 domains, only one of which sees regular traffic.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

eep! I'm about to buy my first one!

Is that (if you don't mind my asking) like $1500 a year?

I'd guess more like 150 to 300 per year.

Oh wow, it's way cheaper than I thought.
