We know that Donald Duck is only a shirt. But when he gets out of the water is wearing a towel around his hip. Does it means that Donald is always walkingnaked or those it means that something appears when he is wet

?

There is some different type of keyboard. For example, I know that in France, the keyboard is AZERTY instead of QWERTY.

Is it ok to switch from 1st gear to 3rd gear to 5th gear, completely skipping 2nd and 4th gear in a manual transmission vehicle?

why in some languages does it sound like they say more words to say one word

for example

in english 2 word phrase

and say in spanish it sounds like they are saying 3 or 4 words, but in reality its the same 2 word phrase

Why is a keyboard made the way it is on a computer?...I mean is there a scientific reason that is goes asdfghjkl as opposed to alphabetical order? just seems illogical to me.

Does anyone else think they are getting texts/calls when they aren't...while leaving their phone on vibrate?

Pretty sure Google could've answered these for you but....

I believe the QWERTY keyboard came into existence to slow people down when typing. They were typing so fast on the alphabetical joints that they were breaking them. At least that's how it was explained to me.

As for the last question...I experienced this as well when I deployed to the middle east. My cell phone was over 4000 miles away but I could hear it ringing and or receiving texts. I would check my pocket and remember that I didn't have it. I think our minds play tricks on us word to Scarface.

holy crap! seriously! i thought i was the only one...

When they say you're not giving enough gas, do they mean you're not stepping on the gas hard enough? Or you're just not giving enough rpms?

it's more about the revs, dawg.


but you get more revs by stepping on the gas harder so..


think of the clutch and gas as two ends of a seesaw--that's the trick to balancing on an incline.

Before Qwerty there was Dvorak, and from what I remember Dvorak helped you type WAY faster than Qwerty can.

The standard "QWERTY" keyboard was not designed with ease of typing in mind. Rather, it was designed to keep early typewriters from jamming. 130 years later, in the age of computers, people are still using this awkward, inefficient keyboard layout. Few know that there is a much faster, easier, more efficient, and more comfortable alternative: the Dvorak (pronounced "duh VOR ak") keyboard. Unlike QWERTY, the Dvorak keyboard was scientifically designed for increased speed and accuracy. It is estimated to be 12 to 20 times more efficient than QWERTY. Dvorak is great for beginning and experienced typists alike. It's the layout used by some of the world's fastest typists. This page will give you some information on the Dvorak layout and how to start using it. It's easy and free!

Here is how the Dvorak layout look like. You can still use this layout, you just have to specify it in your Windows keyboard settings undercontrol panel.
