Not(e) Worth It

I actually planned a series of posts on keyboard shortcuts and tricks, but since July is ending, guess I’ll say goodbye to One Manga first. If you haven’t been paying attention, manga scanlation site One Manga has announced that it’ll close down by July 2010 due to pressure from publishing companies. Surprisingly, this doesn’t hit me as heavily as I’d thought, probably because I’d been reading less manga anyway. Besides, there’s always Chinese scanlations. But for the good old memories of manga series I started reading there, here’s a toast to One Manga~ What’s interesting are the debates going on. On the forums, many manga fans are either   a) blaming others for not using IRC and staying low   b) stating they’ll continue getting scanlations via torrents, IRC etc   or   c) blaming others for being pirates and not buying published manga while being all high and mighty ( Kurogane has a great rant post for those people). I must say I have to agree with Kurogane and quite a lot

Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V (copy and paste) are probably among the most used keyboard shortcuts. Did you know, though that there’s another pair of shortcuts? Try Ctrl+Insert and Shift+Insert ;)  The usefulness is pretty limited though, since you'll usually need 2 hands to use them. (Huh, Insert is an often overlooked key, isn't it? Look out for future musings on the underdog keys on the keyboard.)

And Opera Turbo was on =.=’
