I love the extension called "Reload Tab on Double Click". It does exactly what it says. Very useful!

I love keyboard shortcuts and not using a mouse as much as possible and f5 reloads the page but if you like the mouse this must be good
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I also love keyboard shortcuts in general... (ask my friends!). I use control-r or F5 to reload when my hands are on the keyboard, but I like this one when my hand is on the mouse. Browsing is one of those times when I actually use the mouse :).

My laptop has touchscreen so I don't usually use the mouse even when browsing

I just got a touchscreen laptop for work - lots of fun. Except sometimes my arm gets tired and i'm back to using the mouse.

The funny thing is that I started touching the screen of my personal laptop. Which is not touch screen. :D

+1. Once I got a touchscreen laptop, I couldn't figure out how I lived without it, and I kept touching my other laptop screen.

All of a sudden the font on DDF became larger.  The page only displays around three posts now instead of way more.  I am not aware of changing any settings.

How do I get smaller font back?

Is everything bigger? Try pressing control minus.
