Is vandalism spray-painted very, very high known as Giraffiti?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Ancient hominids used to paint graffiti very, very high... it was the Stoned Age.

The road side sign is placed in a more natural field of view when driving than your cell phone placed on your lap.
Texting while driving (or holding your phone while driving) is really dangerous as you remove your concentration from driving to do something else.
I'd rather be phishing!

Plus reading doesn't need your hands, where as using a phone often does.

The sign is visible from a distance when it is just above your line of sight enabling you to read it while still keeping peripheral vision on the road and requiring very little focal shift.
Looking at your phone requires you to take your eyes off the road completely.

Yes, signs are dangerous and should be removed; no street signs, no speed limit sign, no yield signs, no stop signs, no off/on ramp signs.
None - no signs whatsoever...

I won't sign off on that.

While I do *see* yer point, yer looking UP at a sign, of which your lower peripheral vision still has the road "in sight".
Whereas, looking DOWN, you can (usually) only see the top of the dashboard in your upper peripheral vision.

I have a pic somewhere (always wanted to upload it onto my site and post a link here) of two adjacent billboards.
- The one on the left admonishes drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road.
- The one on the right is an add for Geico car insurance.

I always disable that option on explorer windows, as it drives me nuts, for example, I end up thinking that "foo.exe" is the application when it's actually "foo.exe.config" I prefer to see exactly what the file name is rather than have to move my eyeballs over to the "Type" column. What about you?

Of course not.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I always display all extensions. Because searching for a file-type by watching at the document type column is slower than seeing a filename directly with its extension.
I never finish anyth

I also immediately disable that option, for the same reasons.
My long term goal is to live forever. So far, so good...

It is one of the first things I do when setting up a Windows PC (even when it is not mine).
Not only to know like you what kind of file it is but also for security reasons.

Same thing. It's normally one of the first things I change (even on other people's computer if they ask me to fix something  )
I really don't understand why hiding extensions is the default...
