Why do you wish to impose your morality on others? I'm sure there's a better question, but I can't think of it at the moment, Something about why you think that all television is necessarily bad or why meals with family have to be a time for talking when it's not particularly a good time to use your mouth for it since the point of eating is to use your mouth by putting food in it.
Your comment should really be modded up. It's the first that I've seen that actually answers the question, though it will take me some time to assess how effectively.
Windows has a "Magnifier" program. In order to see a continuous line of text you have to maneuver the mouse around a window in order to see all of it. In order to do away with all of that, the text has to wrap within a rectangular region before any magnification stage is implemented.
Lowering the brightness of the display lowers the contrast. The main goal is to prevent eyestrain. If I strain my eyes, I can see smaller print.
Sunlight doesn't bother me but close fluorescents do. The lights, fluorescent in the kitchen, an array of incandescents in the bathroom, on the low ceilings of my apartment bother me, but not the lights in most stores with higher ceilings. I have prescription progressive lenses.
I'm looking at my laptop screen right now. I have a slightly larger 720 screen but it would be difficult to put it on the wooden tray table my laptop is on. If I got a block of text in a nice rectangle without having to deal with cropping or moving the mouse to view an entire block of text, that's a description, kind of, of what I want.
I asked my optometrist to recheck my near vision and she said something about it changing with age and that it isn't magic. I had to think about this and after I had long left realized that it not being magic would mean to me that it is caused by a wide variety of factors and because of that needs to be tested. I had recently moved so I was going to a new optometrist, and she seemed very surprised that I even needed multifocal lenses, which I have needed for quite a few years now, at my age of 38. I don't know what lens maker she uses, but in the initial attempt one lens was quite a bit off.
Part of what makes me come back to Amazon's site to buy products is the humorous fake reviews for things that are absurdly expensive or seems like it shouldn't exist.
Whoah, I just posted almost the same thing as you because it's too much trouble to read all the previous replies to a post before posting your reply. My teacher was in a Catholic school in the Myrtle Beach, SC area.
One of the few things I remember about first grade was that the teacher had a stuffed alligator and said that the alligator went after the greater number and the shape of the alligator's mouth was the shape of the greater or lesser than sign.
Not having looked at replies to your statement, it's easier to me to think of:= as assignment and == as comparison. Maybe my exposure to Pascal affects this, or who knows what neurological quirks, but it's similar to those who want reverse direction controls that seems to be based on how the neck moves for up-down, but I'm not sure for left-right. People have lots of quirks like that and we'd be better off writing programs that convert between them than forcing everyone to a single standard. Mike McShaffry wrote in Game Coding Complete that Origin, I think had people who wrote converters for different bracing methods.
People want certain elements of government expanded and other elements of government removed. If that means the result happens to be a government that is "big" then the opinion is usually so be it, but "bigness" is usually considered a side effect that is harmless with regards to the features desired.
Corporations don't have to share the source of code they use internally. There are some licenses that say you have to share any code that results in the page sent to the user, though, I think.
That's the kind of attitude that contributes to the us versus them mentality. I'm not sure how the police can use that information against you, but them having that information could potentially land you in prison when you wouldn't be otherwise or encourage them to use more force, but it could also lead to them getting a person medical treatment when they are acting strange due to a medical problem. We really need to work on getting the government to act in a trustworthy manner, and I don't have all the answers on where to begin.
When people say data should only be used for the purpose it is collected for and seem to think that if someone wants to use it for an unintended purpose it should be collected again resulting in what I think is pointless duplication, I wonder if they're open to a law getting passed that would make a new purpose for its use part of the intended purpose.
I was noticing that my phone started sending out texts without my knowledge because it somehow detected a swipe or two or something. I found a setting for automated texts and tried deleting all the potential responses, but it happened again afterward. I can't find a setting to turn such things completely off.
The analog portion that matters is the paper and ink, not the phone line, though technically these days they aren't needed to send a fax. I send faxes by using a free fax service that I upload a pdf or image file to.
I found Enterprise entertaining, but it introduced itself as a somewhat near future sort of a thing but then the whole time war thing made the main cast seem like second-class citizens in their own show. If you want to do a show with time travel as a main element the time travellers should be front and center, not some characters from a bygone era that ripples from the time war are just beginning to inconvenience.
Google hasn't done a good job of making it clear what the features of the Chromecast are. Apparently it doesn't run any apps of its own, and doesn't support DLNA or Miracast, so why does anyone want it, again?
I was trying to go for a joke about how boolean operators are a class of operators but I got so many results about a boolean class in various programming languages.

NASA planning to communicate with rover by text message confirmed!
No, NASCAR is an organization. Motorsport's the sport.

Actually, my experience has been that when the resolution is decreased, the programs try to display things at the same size but with fewer pixels.
One or two? More like nearly everybody including Slashdot.

I have glasses. They don't work nearly as well as they should, you insensitive clod.

Because most of the characters die off the first episode.

You make that sound like a bad thing.
