I grew up with libraries and video stores for access to analogous materials and didn't have regular internet access until 1999. I really don't see why it's reasonable to expect the internet to supplant parenting duties that w

If you read the poster's comment history, they claim expertise in the field (see the comment immediately preceding this one). And they did reply to a comment containing "Please tell me and show me otherwise." The post might o

I am one of these people, and what I have to do is once every couple of quarters go through my open windows and tabs and edit them down by going through them and deciding to (a) read them and close them (b) close them without reading, or (c

I've seen this too - a fake business (one selling bait-and-switch low quality services through online storefronts) had many 5 star reviews, and if you clicked into their profiles you'd see a smattering of 5 stars reviews all acros

you are right that a loop isn't required, but the point that kind of index / array element juggling is a headache still stands

I don't know if your Endura Pro was USB or PS/2, but I have used two Unicomp Model Ms with trackballs built in and the trackball performance was unacceptable for the USB model and excellent for the PS/2 model. Seems silly, bu
