Thanks for trying.
I guess I'm stuck with configuring uim each time (the XIM that connects to google IME). (Sorry for being a *nix maniac.)

Windows Firewall is so useless, so very useless.

For very basic protection, it's better than nothing (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (and it's free! bundled with the windows.. I haven't tried the Windows 10 version though..) Zone alarm is a bit better I think but you need to adjust it carefully, else it obstructs your connection (I tried it years ago and didn't really work for me). ====== Anyway, I think of upgrading my smartphone.. it feels really old quick

QUOTE(Frostbite @ Aug 26 2016, 19:28)  I haven't tried the Windows 10 version though.. The same as it was in Windows 7. Because it won't allow me to make rules for Windows Store apps, just the old traditional W32 apps. So basically, nothing has changed.

WTF, I have to buy the app again just because I upgraded from Win8 to Win10!? RIPOFF!!! M$ is also to blame, for the mess that is of the failure to ensure all WP8 devices are upgradeable to W10 Mobile!!!

Given the number of TCP implementations, it's a miracle things even work.
It make me worried. Very worried.

QUOTE(blue penguin @ Aug 31 2016, 13:03)  [ academia.stackexchange.com] What should be included in a disclaimer about the omittance of gender-neutral language in a bachelor's thesis?For god fucking sake! How long do you guys believe it will take before some entitled piece of shit decides that the entire body of literature should be rewritten? Couple more decades before it infects every university in the Western world if it continues unhindered. Luckily it's limited to the social sciences/humanities departments of schools. The moment it starts to cross the hard sciences boundary, people will start questioning priorities. Though it's a complete shame they're not questioning priorities even now, before it has the chance to become a full blown shitstorm. If they ever touch the computer science department of my uni, there'll be hell to pay.

The genderless findings produced by male and female data can be correctly infallibly and equally according to colour, religion and race quantised into the correct system operated by both male and female operators in exactly same quantities. The following genderless system can perform the genderless exploit by the operator, which is male and female in exact 50% of cases. The male or female operator can retrieve private data of an individual, who is always in the exact percentage of distinct race, religion, fashion, sex, psychological pattern in equal opportunity. Writing a 10,000 word report will be trivial: you write 300 words and then add PC. QUOTE Hehe, now to wait for someone to integrate asciiquarium into Vim... That's actually a great idea for a plugin! Vim 8 (currently in beta) will have the multithreading interface finalised, good moment to start using it.

Wouldn't give them too much credit, considering most if not all research papers could be summarized in 100 words or less. Yes, even those 15-page 9-font double-column ACM papers could be summarized to 100 words or less.

Ah, heard about that. Support for asynchronous I/O right? That would be quite the improvement.

I really dislike that my power buttons have all become suggestions, rather than the actual definitive solutions to the problem they used to be.
Also, I don't see why you wouldn't just write an app for a store that would process male-language in an academic paper into gender-neutral language. If you feel really industrious, you could make it actually do something, instead of just saying it is doing something.

Kaby Lake & Zen is alleged to support only Windows 10. But how does that work actually? Are they talking about chipset drivers, or are they going to prevent older OS from running on the new platforms via the BIOS/UEFI?

All 4 (four) of the non-important Gmail accounts I use for random stuff have received the invitation to activate the sign-in-using-only-phone feature The two accounts (personal and work) where I would actually like to have that feature enabled (since their passwords are actually complex) have of course been left out Sasuga Google

The fact they are so try-hard in getting people to use windows 10 always seems suspicious. It would be normal had a salesman walks up to you and say: "Hey! Wanna try out our new product? It can do blah blah..." instead its more like: "Please! Take this away from me! Take it! Look, I'm going to give it for free okay? Just take it!" *secretly tried to put it into your pockets* I mean, WTF?
