I'm usually very picky about the authenticity of sounds in different media, except for chewing sounds. I just can't stand them, and it makes me so happy and grateful when they sound fake, no matter if it was done intentionally or not.

I didn't know it was so difficult to find a keyboard with the ANSI layout in Europe. I thought those were more common. Or is it just me who doesn't find the ISO layout very convenient?

@menelion @Kaliah Wow you like Slack? I used it for a few months, and even though it was fine, I can't really say that I like it. It was kinda clunky and confusing.

@FreakyFwoof Some names that are considered old fashioned in the West are pretty popular in Eastern/Central Europe.

I'm reading an HP fanfic where Quirrell managed to steal the Philosopher's Stone from the bank, but it turns out the Stone has its own consciousness. Voldemort told it he wanted a new body and transformed into a cat because apparently, according to the Stone, that was the maximum his soul could handle, having been damaged by Horcruxes.
At the same time, Petunia Dursley, her new husband, and the kids moved to another house, and new tenants with a dog named Harry Oliver Oswald Potter moved to 4 Privet Drive. One day, Hagrid came there to invite Harry to Hogwarts, but instead of the boy, he saw a dog responding to the name Harry Potter. For some reason they thought it was the real Harry Potter, who just took his Animagus form due to mistreatment by the Dursleys.
They stole Harry the dog from his owners, gave him a magic wand, sorted him into Gryffindor, made him attend all the classes, and play Quidditch as a Seeker.
At one point, Dumbledore was deemed insane and was sent to a hospital. The dog was returned to its owners. However, Dumbledore's friend Alastor Moody decided to rescue the headmaster and took him from the hospital by bribing the doctors. Dumbledore was reinstated as the professor of Transfiguration. He found out that the dog was returned to his owners and was very upset because he still thought it was the real Harry Potter. So, Minerva McGonagall made Severus Snape brew a potion that turned Voldemort, who was the cat, into Harry the dog to comfort Dumbledore.Thanks for reading. I just really wanted to share this nonsense with someone.
Should I keep on reading?

@menelion I don't know about BigBlueButton, but Jitsi is accessible. I've only used it a few times but didn't get any issues.

@Kaliah I had to record a song and had almost a month to do it. I finished it on the last day, literally 10 minutes before leaving the house. You're definitely not alone.

Originally on this laptop, I could use the f keys without pressing the fn key, but now I don't know how it happened, if I press any f key without using the fn key, it does some random actions like changing volume, brightness etc. Is it possible to change it back somehow?

Once when my English was terrible, my friend told me that a girl he liked had rejected him. For some reason my brain thought that "rejected" meant exactly the opposite of what it actually means, so I got very happy and started congratulating him, telling him how great it was, and how happy I was for him. It happened more than two years ago, but I still feel so terrible about it. It was probably one of the most embarrassing moments in my life lol.
