As has become a bit of a trend lately, they put the useful information in the subtitle so it it won't get picked up by link aggregators...

Now, Microsoft Word will use the ‘merge formatting’ option by default.

I spent a few bucks on a little macro keyboard for this very reason.

Is it sending all of my data to China? Maybe.

Do I have to press modifier keys like I'm playing twister with my fingers? No.
