Of course it’s dripping mysterious black juice.

You could do a spreadsheet with cells containing a file:// URI

You’re describing a database which points to resources. A file system is hierarchical.

I take notes as I work in case I get pulled onto another task.

Doesn’t take more than 5 minutes to summarize at the end of the day.

Cool find, but it can’t live in the middle of the keyboard, and I worry about the driver quality since it’s not from Synaptics like the original.

BOOOOO!

Only reason I’d still buy Lenovo just went out the window.
