Anyone who cares about speed won't really use a mouse unless it's the only option to do something. Mice are slow. Keyboard shortcuts are fast.
If you want a real-world example, I bet there are YouTube videos of blind people using a computer with only their keyboard and a screen reader. That'll probably give you a sense of what's possible with only a keyboard without silly movie hacker shit.

Reply to You need to apologize by Halenat
The problem is that as adults society or others demand an apology, then they get the apology, and the response is “that’s not enough”.

Apologies are not always easy, but they are essential for relationships to stay healthy. I'm sorry for whatever I did and hope we can move forward with a fresh start.

Reply to Having a day off to do nothing is considered bad if you’re depressed but good if you’re not depressed by themetahumancrusader
Maybe reframe "nothing to do" with "I can do anything I want to do today". I realize depression can be a fucking bitch and sometimes it's not that simple. But for me, when I'm there I use a 3 step mental process.
1 - Think of something simple you can do that would improve your mental well-being. Cleaning up a little, knocking out something you've been putting off, etc.
2 - Just start. Work on #1 for a minimum of 15 minutes. Set a timer if you need to. More times than not, momentum will take over and 2 hrs later you just got a bunch of shit done.
3 - Take a moment to appreciate how precious time actually is. The wealthiest person on the planet can't buy more of it on their deathbed (to certain extents). It's the most valuable resource on the planet. Make the most of it.

When you are 21 and healthy, a million bucks well managed is a bankroll that can provide for you through old age. When you are 71 and sick, it's just the co-pay for your medical insurance.

This is a universal and common sense method of living your life regardless of who you are. Couldn’t have said it better myself.

You know you're old when you can say "twenty years ago when I was still in high school.."

There is only so many observations in the world. If 4 years isn't enough time passed before a repost is warranted then I don't know what is lol.

Not really. It's bad for your health to do nothing every day but some people become depressed by over working themselves and mental health days can do wonders.
In the situation where you just take one day off to do nothing, it's almost always good

What do you mean born in 2002? Surely that means you are still in kindergarten… oh. God damn it.

By the time you rave dance your way to a sentence, the vocal language has already said what they wanted and left.

Reply to comment by ARandomWalkInSpace in Apples are usually depicted as red but the most common apple flavor is green. by SandwichedPotato
Granny Smith apples are top tier pie apples, as are many other green apples. Tart apples generally cook better, and have a more balanced flavour when cooked.

Grown up apologies require action as proof of concept.
