For me, it’s “Clear Storage”. Sometimes I try to clear the cache of some mobile game I’m playing and end up deleting all my progress instead.

I’ve had that in happen to me where I try to click on something and it opens a new page. I go back to the previous page. Aim for the link I want to click… Press it… refresh Click the wrong one again…

Sometimes this can go on for 3 or 4 times. I feel like I’m going insane when it happens. How can something so simple be so complicated

This is how we know human advancement still has potential. Nobody has implemented a solution for this. It could be so simple.

Keep the element where the cursor is in the same spot. Any shifting of other elements above or below, fine, but whatever the cursor is on is locked.

Something loads below? Expand the page down to fit. Something loads above? Expand the page up to fit.

It’s not rocket science, guys.

I get this on the web interface of my 3D print server. Occasionally come back in a few hours having printed the wrong file…

C instead of V when I try to paste something… Like I’ve got something copied and I accidentally hit Ctrl+C again, instead Ctrl+V and now I have to go copy the thing I want to copy again (and then proceed to missclick again, it’s a never ending cycle)

Use Windows key+v. It will show you all recently copied text
