Great minds thinking alike! :) I have similar config on my desktop running Win7 and boot time is within 5...10 sec (not bad at all). Betcha it could be even better in Win10.

Life is 2short 2remove USB safely

Congrats! :) What I really want is Win10 to be like Win7 with just shorter startup time. :-D Btw, SSD or HDD?

Life is 2short 2remove USB safely

Any firsthand experience regarding Win10 avr boot-up time running on desktop PCs, Ultrabooks, Tablets?

Well, who would argue that listening to Maria Callas at Metropolitan Opera is a way better than watching her performance on TV or PC. But not all of us are so lucky to reside in that particular ZIP code (plus, having enough extra cash in the pocket). As a matter of fact, many of us would be just glad to have at least that minimal opportunity, i.e. quality PC video streaming. The same could be said about real/virtual classrooms. Btw, the quality of video-streaming currently is pretty high (refer to my kinda auld but rather popular articles on this topic posted on CP YouTube™ Embedded Video Player: Extended API (C#)[^] ) Best regards,

I think virtual education has a bright future. But the future won't arrive until we stop thinking we can make a cheap recording of a mediocre live lecture, compress the sh*t out of it, and stream it onto the tiny screen of your cell phone.

I would recommend to read the previous comments addressing various issues and, in particular, this one: it was already pointed out that online education can implement Virtual Classrooms with full duplex audio-visual and text communication between teachers/students. Such technology has been around for many years. Also, you can find in comments thread a concise but insightful pros/cons analysis of Real vs Virtual Classrooms. Best regards,

A bit auld puzzle, but still unknown to many and kinda entertaining: How to a Create Chocolate out of Nothing[^]. Making something out of nothing seems like so inspirational/exciting idea, almost like inventing a Perpetuum Mobile :-D ... Just in case, simple explanation can be found here[^]. Unfortunately, no free lunch but have fun! :)

Not sure if I got your question right: what's that big deal of having couple controls added to the video chat box (aka chat rooms)? Btw, you can post your programming question separately with some examples for added clarity (re: the rules for The Lounge: "Technical discussions are encouraged, but click here to ask your programming question.")

Ja, auld habits die hard, but try thinking outside the box: EXAMPLE [^] :-D

'1Size fits all' already been covered in details (C'Mon, read the entire uber-comments thread :-D ): online education comes in many sizes, like 1280x800, 1366x800, 1920x800, 2560x1440, etc.

Yep, it's mostly true! Several decades ago I've formulated a "Learn, Practice, Apply" (LPA) educational paradigm and calculated approximate LPA time-allocation matrix for public STEM education. Pertinent to the high-school, "Apply/Practice" activities should match the 'Learn", focusing on "Learning by Doing" educational approach.

Time wasted at school could be huge, but not exactly 100%. Systemic education is still rather important in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) area, either it's implemented in regular classrooms, or in the virtual ones.

Valid point(s), but Interactive Classrooms also provide certain feedback/audio-visual interactivity. Take, for example, Webinars- quite efficient online educational technologies. Best regards,

Life is 2short 2remove USB safely

Virtual Classrooms can easily be made Interactive (see my other post)

Life is 2short 2remove USB safely

True! I'm gonna just add couple words: online education can be easily made REAL-TIME/INTERACTIVE (so called, VIRTUAL CLASSROOMS). Also: Online Education pros 1). Huge variety of topics and teachers to select 2). Comfort and Safety 3). Flexible schedule Classroom cons 1). Very unsafe and/or over-crowded in many areas 2). Public toilet hygiene issues 3). Huge transportation overhead Best regards,
