Who started the trend of making web browsers more than just a web browser by default? If someone has a time machine, we should probably take a quick jump back and deal with that.
Well, since March. Haven't been keeping up with their release notes; I guess they ditched the rapid-release silliness to a degree... quite some time ago.
But then it would look and act like a mediocre Chrome-clone, and that's clearly what the consumers desire. How can you be so cruel as to deprive the consumers of their choice?
I'm fairly certain that this notion was originally written into the law that created it. I also know that the IRS began using it for taxpayer identification in the early 60s. Where I'm going with this is undefined.
Unless you want to include the phone's dialer or something equally silly. The emphasis on the 'apps' model seems, to me at least, to cheapen software as a whole. It does this by swamping the markets with useless or single-purpose dreck. Note that I am not trying to imply that all apps are so narrow in scope, or at all useless, but I hold that the overwhelming majority of them are. A huge portion of them are dependent on external services, making them more the equivalent of a thin front-end to a website.
I likewise am bothered by the trend away from locally run programs in favor of web-based systems, but my unabashed contempt for apps has me seeing browser-based stuff as reasonable by comparison.
Just because you can feel the sensation doesn't mean that you can 'hear' it. It's like the opposite end of the spectrum from a series of fluctuations (sub-bass, infrasonic), and just sort of becomes a sense of 'pressure'.
Running 32-bit versions of software prevents them from being able to suddenly consume many, many gigabytes of memory in the event of a memory leak or other behaviors. Of course, multi-process models make this a bit less relevant. Still, some may see this as a plus in memory-constrained environments. Is 4GB the new 640K? Perhaps.
Protip: if you've got traction issues with the little rubber nib C-stick on these things, you can rip it off and replace it with the nib from a PSP. The PSP nib is shorter, wider, relatively hard, and deeply textured.
100 years might be a bit of an understatement; claw hammers may have been first invented by the Romans shortly before the common era (I cannot find any hard sources, unfortunately), and can be seen in artwork no less than 500 years old. One can be fairly plainly seen at the left-middle of this engraving: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Compudyne 386 (SX, 33MHz) with 4MB RAM (later upgraded to 20MB) and a 512KB VGA card... 119MB HDD, Winders 3.1... a bit late to the party compared to some of the cool stuff people are listing out here.
"Needful" is very much a word; it happened to be picked up on frequently by Indian English learners, which seems to have increased its prevalence in modern English substantially.
Bounding? Binding? Bonding? Banding? Bunging? Funding? (let me know if i'm missing anything) For fuck's sake, it's not a high crime to edit typos in article summaries or the fucking title.

Explains a lot, I've apparently been rotting on 45.8.0 this whole time.

For people looking for EWS integration with Thunderbird... been using this for about a year now, without any issues:

Not sure what, if anything, can easily be done to support the EAS side of things.
Last gas station was like 300 miles ago, and this isn't a Jetta.
May all your kek be topkek.

I'm sure this will all work as well as intended, at least for the goobers trying to make it happen.
Welcome back, my friends, to the shitshow that never ends! I'm so glad you could attend! Come inside, come inside!
I like where I think you're going with this. I've got 16GB in my main machine.

What about putting the 'not' immediately to the left of Microsoft? Or finishing a sentence with a 'not!' ?
Perhaps we should start a 'young curmudgeons club'? I've been an angry and senile old man for many years, and I'm only 30.
Addendum: similar to how ultraviolet light can have an effect on your retinas (e.g. snowblindness) without actually being able to see it.

If I wasn't the OP, or if I had an army of shill accounts, you'd have a mod up xD

Roger, Roger! Can I get a vector, Victor? I picked a bad day to quit posting AC.

I am astounded this hit +5, I really hoped they'd fix it quickly and get this to -1 where it belongs xD
