I accidentally1* replaced my menubar in KDE2 and the unintended side-effect was that I couldn’t hit the Windows key (super) and have it bring up the helpful menu and search anymore. A little bit of searching around made the answer easy; apparently, binding to Meta+F1 results in the same thing as just meta. Beautiful!

For years I’ve had shortcuts in Firefox. In this example, I’ve long been able to type i thing in my URL-bar and it would immediately take me to a google image search for “thing”. In the past this was added by right-clicking “search” on some page and selecting “add a shortcut for this search”. At some point, though, that went away. The functionality is now hidden a little, and you solve it with bookmarks (which I also haven’t used in any form for years).
