Some finds:

Run

Yes, Run can significantly improve the startup time of your computer. By prioritizing essential startup processes and optimizing the boot sequence, it reduces the time it takes for your system to be fully operational after powering on.

Mickey

The number of mickeys in a mouse is determined by its hardware and sensor technology. Modern mice have high dots per inch (dpi) sensors, which provide more mickeys per inch, allowing for fine-grained control.

Incognito Mode

You should also clear out any cookies stored from sites visited while in incognito mode so that they don’t continue tracking you even after turning off private browsing modes.

Apparently the Mickey thing is an actual term, not something they made up

I searched around trying to double check it, and the first related thing I found was this same 'glossary entry' :|

I went to a trivia night at a local bar with a guy from high school and his family. We were in contention for the top. The whole night I was useless, since most of the questions were about European sports legends or actors or singers from the 20th century. The guy starts feeling up the last question:

"This is a tricky one and one of my favorites. Going to the realm of technology... What is the name for a unit of measurement, named after a Disney character, which is related to how far your mouse moves?"

The whole family looks at me, cause I'm known to be a tech guy.

Complete blank. Flustered. Uhhh uhmmm it's called DPI? Pointer speed?? Is there a Disney character called Peter Pointer?...

We lost. They were disappointed, but not as disappointed as I was in myself.

Went up to the trivia guy at the end to ask him to show his sources. He pulled up a legit looking wikipedia article so I accepted my defeat.
