There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation, naming things and off-by-one errors.

RE: Do .EU have a domain registered in the UK? .EU may not have long to reregister it elsewhere...
This isn't the first time Brussels bureaucrats have been messing up the .eu TLD:
IOW, don't use a .eu domain for anything important - you can never know when they'll change the rules and remove it from you.

RE: WTF is happening with Windows 10? And nothing else
@levicki said in WTF is happening with Windows 10? And nothing else:
Whoever designed this dialog should be taken outside, raped while being strangled to death, and their body fed to a bunch of hungry pigs.
I think this should be done to most modern UI "designers" - looks like in the last 10 years they forgot everything about usability.

RE: When one's scientific equipment is another's BadUSB
@cvi said in When one's scientific equipment is another's BadUSB:
If I connect to one specific group, the chip controlling those ports pretty much gives up until a reboot.
This sounds like you have multiple USB3 controllers on motherboard (and some 3rd party controllers are known to only vaguely implement the USB standard).

RE: Should I migrate a installer away from NSIS if rewriting a large part of it?
Inno's scripting is almost certainly more user(developer)-friendly than NSIS for this (it's Object Pascal - similar to Delphi, though more limited). You can check the examples here.

RE: Should I migrate a installer away from NSIS if rewriting a large part of it?
That really depends on what you're doing - I use both Inno Setup and NSIS in various projects. Inno is much easier to use, but is slightly more restricted than NSIS (OTOH, there's built-in logging, so if something goes wrong on the user's end, it's usually much easier to debug). NSIS lets you micromanage everything, but scripting is a bit of a pain.

RE: Superhuman media kerfuffle
@levicki said in Superhuman media kerfuffle:
I wonder how do you use all those chat platforms where it says "wft is typing..." or "wft is sending a file..." on the recipient's side?
I use a 3rd party client that lets me turn this thing off.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9Bu3tPaJCA8MB is still faster and better than 1.44. Why buy a Mac if you want a PC experience?
Hah, I have this exact drive (IBM-branded) somewhere. And while they might have been invented in 1998, they did not come into common use until early 2000's.
I remember lugging my parallel ZIP100 and later ZIP250 drives around.

RE: Apple stand
@Steve_The_Cynic said in Apple stand:
True, but in this case, it was £1500, not $1500, at a time when one £ was about $1.6, so think of it more like $2500 in year 2000 dollars.
Let me bring up the £15k power cord again.
