Probably a misplaced decimal point... :)

I took me almost 10 years to drop Borland CPP for MS C# and about 30 to drop Unix/Linux for Windows. I hated doing it, as if I were doing something wrong. I kept seeing my friends keeping software running for years but I had to keep making changes. The maintenance was killing me. I now have other problems and the universe I deal with is bigger, but there is always something already solving my problems in the Microsoft universe. My last adventures were the Mono Project and the MySQL limit to 2Gbs. By the time I got around their issues MSFT had CS Code behind and MSSQL Express could store 10GB in the main DB and unlimited using Streams. At my level, which is SMB, that makes it very easy to use. In those short years are grew 4 times the size. I share my shame of leaving Unix/Linux for Windows for that reason. Good luck Sir!

But what about the nouning of verbs? Did you know that there is a search engine that is named after the action of searching?!!! Google certainly picked a weird name for their company! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: (Sometimes I slay myself with my sarcasm!)

Wow, I figured that one was done for.

You succumbed to the the power of the dark side[^] :laugh: Mircea

If you send me the Markdown version, I can help you get it posted. sean@codeproject.com Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject

True. M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I would replace the drives with large ones, copy the data over and destroy the old drives. I just use my drill press to drill a couple of holes down through the platters. Our hazard waste site has a bin for electronic waste (big sign: "No Scavenging"). Have to remember to take my old batch of 5 1/4" diskettes with me next time. >64 There is never enough time to do it right, but there is enough time to do it over.

This is what Mircea Neacsu looked like last night. :laugh: Wolf of Wall Street - Driving Home Scene

I agree. It didn't add much of anything to the community except drama. People took it as an excuse to be their worst selves, and it didn't really match the overall theme here.

But if you don't, people like me - who can NEVER solve the things - WILL ask for it. I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

I have only empirical data from various tech sites that have articles about new models of curved monitors being released all the time. I visit several sites and there seems to be an average of one new curved monitor per week. TVs are entirely different matter. The main difference is one usually sits quite a bit closer to a computer monitor than they do to a TV. I see little point to having a curved TV for that reason.

No, it was the big red button labeled with "Do NOT touch" :rolleyes: :-D M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution...

I wish the software development at large to take such an attitude towards C/C++ (50+ yo) and *nix CLI.

Yes, but didn't you know that Matthew invented all those as well?

Men don't really care about your acne. As long as you love and take care of yourself, he'll love you back. We women care about and notice our own flaws more than anybody else does. So, you can relax and stop stressing about them.
