We wish. This won't be over for a long, long time. No matter who 'wins'.

Which is why 'BlindJAFO' was the perfect WB skin name for one done by Paul. Still one of the best blinds ever IMHO.

Actually, no. It's an epithet he cherishes from his involvement in motor racing.

[quote who="Jafo" reply="44" id="3656679"] God knows whose fault it was [probably the electoral system] that sees the only 2 options a dick-head and a fuck-wit. Either way the US pop is screwed. [/quote] We're screwed, alright. We might survive the one; doubtful we survive the other. As a country our 'grandparents might remember,' anyway.

You thought they'd endorse Hillary? Or Jill Stein?

Unless you have skills or expertise that Australia by policy desires to import, or are lucky enough to snag an Aussie lass in marriage, forget relocating there. Or sneaking in.

No country has totally clean hands. Not one. Some have cleaner hands than others, but all are grimy to varying degree. The 'high horse' is only high relative to the others.

Like the new layout & look of the forum pages. Just noticed that the title text in list view doesn't change from bold to normal after reading a post (as it had previously). Just FYI for the devs.

The skipper of a sailboat I was on vacationing in the British Virgin Islands in about 1982 caught one much bigger than that. While standing holding the base of the antennae at the head chest high, the tail fin brushed the deck. It was Neptune massive [e digicons];P[/e] [e digicons]|-)[/e] .

Updated without issue when I left all 3 updates checked. Whatever.

Same problem here when I restrict the update to just one selection (have 3 on offer). Eh, Microsoft.

Not to worry. Kiefer Sutherland will clean up all the mess.

I doubt I'm representative (could be, I suppose), but I'm fed up with all career politicians. There isn't a gnat's fart's difference between the two parties. What some call the 'respectable' GOP are nothing but Democrats in elephant suits. I lean conservative and was a life-long Republican until McCain was nominated for pres. Pox on both their houses and the voters who enable them. The best these parties could manage to offer up is hop

I know nothing of Oz politics. And wouldn't criticize Paul's countrymen if I did.

Windows now meets the definition of malware. Never thought I'd say it, but I think I'm beginning to miss Balmer.

You'll be able to activate them as long as Stardock is still in business, at least, and probably indefinitely - they mean it when they say, "Yours forever."

The inevitable blowback may solve the problem. Did eventually with Keurig. I avoid all things HP except their business-class laser printers, anyway.

That the change was announced by the 'senior product marketing manager' tells you all you need to know. Assholes. I work in an environment where I am not HIPAA-compliant if I don't accept security updates. So that's two sets of assholes effing me over.
