Which they don't. Nevermind that they don't even know what every object within the solar system is

Did the Wolowitz Zero-Gravity Waste Disposal System not meet snuff? Anyways...

Toilet Design Specifications

The specifications listed below represent the maximum allowed values. Proposed designs should at least meet them and will preferentially be lower than them. The toilet design should: Have a mass of less than 15 Kg in Earth’s gravity

Pardon me, but mass is independent of gravity; and will remain constant regardless if you are in outer space or sitting on Jupiter.

But what if you meant it as a URI? I think SQL would call this ambiguous

Is there some benefit to declaring most things var instead of what they actually are? In the case above, a string.

Is it a string? Could it be a URI[^]

Uri siteUri = new Uri("http://www.contoso.com/");

Now that I have fully functional keyboards at home and in the office; I am looking at monitors for the home... probably going with 27-31 inch range and probably going with 1440. A good thing to now that a line of code can be 100 characters wide

I was able to locate another of the MS keyboards so the immediate crisis is over. I did stop at my local best buy (sic) and the 20 something wanted to sell me a chicklet-keyed wanna be laptop keyboard, as obviously I wasn't a gamer.

I have done the same maintenance to my keyboards and trackball; perhaps that is why my hardware is 25 years old. And there is nothing wrong with wired or wireless... And not that it matters to me but there is latency in wireless devices. Enough so that an interupt based device (XT, AT, PS2) can make 2 laps around the internet and still get to the CPU before a wireless signal gets there

We'll just say I am a little picky, and old; and really don't want to change. I have been using the Microsoft Internet Keyboard based keyboard for 20+ years now, the last 15 years or so have all been the Pro version with USB connectivity. Me and my kb have an exclusive relationship; at the office and at home I have the same setup, including the MS Trackball Optical everywhere as well. Prior to this kb I was using Type M or F keyboards back to the 80s Now my home kb is near the point of no return. And they are getting hard to find. So I am going to purchase something new. What I want- 1. I want to keep the same KB angle and rear height. My hands are molded at this angle now. 2. I would like to retain the special purpose keys for email, web, and if I can media controls. 3. Durability. Don't want to have to retrain my hands in 5 years to something different. 4. Full size. I purchased an off-brand MX-Blue keyboard over the weekend and even though the size was a little smaller than I wanted, I could have learned to live with it. I guess it was off-brand as the Enter key was basically sitting at the detent level and other signs of being someone else's reject Suggestions would be appreciated.
