Don't know if they're using that trick 'live' on that page, but on IE, the page renders, then immediately after it's done, the browser content is cleared and the window remains empty. I can only see the content for a fraction of a second.
I could hit Refresh and read about 3 more words and keep doing that...

What's IE? Does that stand for Incurable Experience?

It's sad that we have to be that creative to do something as simple as highlight text in a text area...
While it's pretty cool and I certainly have no better way to do it, it's still a dirty hack

It's five years old. That's an eternity in internet time. It still works in the latest version of firefox and that is surprising.

Oblivion as a mod for Skyrim: The Elder Scrolls: Skyblivion - Teaser Trailer - YouTube[^]
Does that look pretty, or what?
I loved Oblivion - not quite so fond of Skyrim, the story didn't "gell" for me and I didn't get such a sense of freedom. But ... Skyrim graphics, and mechanics with Oblivion story? Now, where did I leave my Ebony Blade, the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal, and Azura's Star ... ?
There is a much longer "gameplay" demo as well: The Elder Scrolls:Skyblivion - Gameplay/Q&A - YouTube[^]

I agree, those dragons in Skyrim were only put in for commercial purposes imho

I think it was the whole "legion or stormcloaks" thing - I wasn't fond of either group and would happily have slaughtered them all. Especially as I was playing as an Argonian ...

big same. I mostly ignored that conflict except where i couldn't. a pox on all of them.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

"I hate ironing".
No, sorry. That's definitely true, but not your problem ...
Is terminal velocity the speed you reach when late for a flight?

You just might also reach terminal velocity if you skip ironing

It might seam like a flat-out lie, button other occasions I'm sure you expressed similar feelings (cuff, cuff, at-you).
Per terminal velocity: I won't fall for that !

I don't mind ironing, which is lucky as after my wife had an accident and ended up having her right wrist fused around 10 years ago I have to do all of it around here.
Mate of mine finds it really relaxing. He works away during the week, and when home likes to spend Saturday morning doing some ironing and watching sport. If there is no ironing to do he cannot fully relax that weekend.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I'm a man of few needs, but ever since I started working, I outsourced housekeeping and laundry. It's the only way I can write code 24 hours a day.

General housework I don't mind, use it as a break to think away from the keyboard with one very conscious exception: ironing.
Since I started working for myself anything that needed ironing was outed to the Sallies (including a few shirts still in the wrappers).

To you - and the others -
Here in the states we have an absolute miracle. It's called "Permanent Press".
And damn, it goes through the wash and dry and is ready to wear! Even when the press finally starts to wear out, compared to sending the clothes out for ironing you've saved enough for a big new monitor, extra DRAM, even enough to buy a few more shirts.
You got to check this out! It's amazing!

I don't like the feel of permanent press fabric against my skin.  All my shirts are 100% cotton.
