It's all Laz's fault.



My cat is still rolling on my keyboard, and has sneezed all over my screen. Lovely.

I can't even deal with this. The extra cognitive load required for me to read full sentences upside-down makes me appreciate people with learning disabilities so much more. I had a headache after reading the announcement thread.

I can read rather well. Just takes me slightly longer. The real mind bomb comes from getting used to seeing text this way, then going to a normal web page.

I can read everything okay, but navigating with an inverted mouse is weird feeling! :weird:

Maybe using the Unicode RTL symbol will help?

Or is it LTR? Well, whichever. Hmm, this just basically means you have to read each letter upside down. I'm not sure if it's easier or not.

CTRL ALT DOWN. Swap upsidedown reading for backwards mouse control.

With an iPad I can lock rotation and flip it upside down! But it makes typing difficult

I was going to creep on LA yesterday(not realizing it was April 1st) but when I saw that everything was upside down I gave a depressed nod and closed the tab. Well played.

Do you travel the internet, seeking message boards that are difficult to post on?

Probably should have thought to just read LA on my phone (which, being a Samsung Galaxy S2, is sufficiently large). You'd think that since I work with computers so often, I'd come up with a more elegant solution.

Never mind...just consulted Google, played with the interface for my graphics card, and figured it out. Damn, now I wish the April Fool's joke had lasted an extra day...

For that day I just took the base off of my monitor and flipped it.

Problem solved.

I tried to do that, and knocked my external hard drive on the floor, then gave up.
