A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I wrote an auto hotkey script where when I press the hotkey combination it opens a user input box. It then takes my search, appends it to the url of approximately 15 retail websites and opens them each in a new tab so that I can find the best price on something at both my local stores and online without touching a separate website.

Example url:

This is a quantum computing thread. I think there's a bug putting comments against the wrong thread sometimes. 2nd time I've seen it today.

Yup, this is definitely not the thread I intended to post in.
