you can also maximize by double-clicking the title bar (also works on windows).
I hate that. Double-clicking the title bar on my systems shade the window.
I don't have a quick way to minimize but I rarely use it anyway - windows naturally go to the background as I activate others. I probably use 'always on top' from the context menu more often than I use minimize.
Yeah, minimize has limited use for me too. Add virtual desktops to the natural migration to the background you mention and minimize is practically superfluous.
I find desktop layers ("always on top", but with more than 2 layers) a necessity! Why that functionality is not exposed in Windows by default, I don't get.

If you really wanted to, you could always click the taskbar button while the window is active.
In my WM middle-clicking the titlebar
also minimizeslowers the window. I've done this a few times by mistake while trying to close a browser tab. I've just changed it to miximize1 the window vertically.1I'm going to leave that typo there.

I'm checking out what's in an old external disk and found this:
I thought I had posted this in the old forums, captioned with something to the tune of "this really is a maximum difficulty puzzle, I couldn't fill a single number" but I couldn't find it. I guess I never got around to it.
Come to think of it, it's possible I submitted this to the main site but it never got published.
-
On the Windows machine my employer forces me to use, I couldn't remove those buttons (I don't think it's possible, at least).
Given that they're optional, technically, I suspect that you could use FindWindow to locate their handles and then send them WM_CLOSE or something. (Unless they're not actual windows--but in that case, you could probably alter the window style to remove them and then send a WM_NCPAINT or something.) Seems silly, though.
-
You'd have to alter the window style. Not sure it's sufficient to send WM_NCPAINT though; been a long time since I've done barebones Win32 development.

Nice meltdown!
Someone needs to show blakey a standard motorcycle transmission: the kind with an inline shifter, no gear indicators, and Neutral situated between 1st and 2nd. I bet we could get another meltdown out of him.

I dunno. Motorcycles aren't exactly vehicles for the smart or safety-conscious.

Sure, but everyone who wants to should be able to drive one, so the standard motorcycle transmission is shit and those who designed it were horrible people.

Motorcycles aren't exactly vehicles for the smart or safety-conscious.
My 7,000-lb pickup truck has been in more accidents than my 300-lb motorcycle.
-
Total, per kilometer, or per hour on the road?
-
-
The plural of anecdote is not data.
It's a horrible anecdote anyway because my pickup was parked, shut down, and unoccupied for the accident it was involved in.
-
But that's a different technology, and there aren't actually shift points, right? You're still doing the equivalent of what I was talking about, learning the best way to make the device work for you.
If you accelerate hard, it does "shift". But it is pretty cool accelerating while the RPM never changes...
-
What kind of transmissions are you using? I was rocking out of snow with 80s-era cars, in the 80s.
I did that with a manual. Just pointing out I wouldn't be able to do that now because of the delay in the CVT (after I back out of the driveway and shift ... one ... two ... three ... go. It's annoying.)

Someone on another forum I'm active on came up with this description of a crying baby:
zeppelin-lunged little fucktrophy
-
I first parsed that as "zeppelin-a sudden forward thrust" rather than "zeppelin as descriptor of lungs". Probably would be easier to parse in person.
-
no gear indicators, and Neutral situated between 1st and 2nd.
I'm sure there's some explanation for that. but i really hate not being able to know what gear i'm
-
Usually I just count. But sometimes I'm not paying enough attention, and then if highway noise is actually low enough for me to hear my engine well, I find myself searching for a non-existent 7th gear.

I bring glorious news from Glorious propaganda ministry branch office in Yaksmackibizhan, their gulag labor force has finished state "corrections" on the subversive american series "The Dukes of Hazard" We have Retitled it the "The Commisars of Hazard".
The Hardest part was correcting the "General Lee", Due to the Proximity of the forced labor censors in Yaksmackibizhan to our glorious allies (for the time being) in the Glorious Peope's Republic of China we have renamed it the "General Tso"!
