    It was extremely funny though.

    I know what happened there. You were already thinking about typing 'some' when you were still typing the word 'scientist'. I do that a lot. It's very annoying.

    This.

    And the waves hypothesis for the non-existing phenomenon we're talking about here was already talked about in the 1970s, and probably much earlier.

    That's a tip. Furniture wax also seems to help but, as another poster already said, if you need to so something with the cable later you have to deal with the stuff you put on it. So I rather hide them or protect them.

    I agree. It makes me cringe every day I have to work with it. It has design faults and inconsistencies that were in Win3.1 and still haven't been fixed.

    Appleis becoming like Trump. Every time you think he has hit rock bottom he surprises you with something worse.

    I so hope the EU will do something about that! Ridiculous nonsense.

  12. Oh my, why didn't I think of that!

  13. In the Netherlands we had this discussion in the 1990s. We had teachers not only failing simple math tests but also not being able to spell. We then introduced a math test for wannabe teachers. Passing that was a prerequisite for entering teacher school. Many people were devastated because they didn't want to pass math tests, they wanted to work with children. The math test, together with some other new rules made sure those people are not in front of classes anymore. Things have improved since then.

  14. You can be sure that they are still collecting data about you. FB, like Google is impossible to avoid.

  15. I keep being amazed about Facebook. They are under the magnifying glass because of all their privacy issues but they just keep on as if nothing is the matter. Of course they know that the American gouvernment won't touch them, but if I were them I would keep quiet for a while, just to make it seem that I cared about the allegations thrown at me.

    Youâ(TM)re partly right. Steve knew what his customers wanted even before they themselves knew it.

    I learnt how electrons move through metals at university. There was never any mention of quasi-particles.
