    Hey, I guess I did actually wake up in the morning! That's a new one.

    Hi Bobby.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    i'm awake, but i don't know if i'll be up more than an hour from now

    i kinda want to get to bed even though i'm not tired

    i used to know the singer on this.

    Not that well, though.  Didn't know she sang.

    Headache getting worse again.

    Gonna go for a walk.

    Headache?
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Since yesterday afternoon.  Like a bad migraine that won't go away. >_<
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Is it a migraine?
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    It feels like one.  i think it might be a side effect of my medication, though.

    Whatever it is, it's really hitting me for six.  Hard to think straight.

    Ouch. That sucks. :\
  • For whatever it's worth A8, you have my sympathies.

    Don't try to pawn it off though, I already tried that a few years ago, the clerk wasn't buying it, even though I was in the market.

    Do you like to be called A8 or just a8, lowercase

    Is the uppercase version your father? maybe we started off on the wrong foot, that does implies we're at a stand-still though, and I don't like standing still for very often.

    Not because I don't have patience I should correct, I'm not a doctor yet It's been said that one thing I have is patients.

    I don't really understand how that came about, I haven't earned any degrees, Fahrenheit or Celsius. I might have a temper though, but for the most part I'm often calm. I've been in too many heated discussions not to try and play it off as cool.

    Sorry, jumped track again there, not there we could drive anywhere on this internet site, but considering You're still reading, it would be fair to you warn that you're in for a long-ride.

    Good morning, everyone. How are things?

    a8: Ouch. Sorry to hear that.
  • Good morning, everyone. How are things?

    Things are swell, not that I'm a doctor or anything but I doubt that's technically a bad thing in this case. but that implies some sort of actual study into the subject, yet my research, independent or otherwise hasn't wrought anything worrisome yet.

    i really don't mind what you call me so long as it means me

    Morning Prof G.

    Now I am too. Thanks, CA. You've saved the day yet again.

    Raocow does that same kind of free-associative thing sometimes so that makes sense.

    Morning Tre.

    Good morning Tre.

    You know, if I'd had actual money to spend instead of Amazon credit, I probably would have chosen a Nook over a Kindle. The whole "no ePub" thing is kind of a dealbreaker.
  • That's why Cyanogenmod's a thing.

    Heh, I guess I should clarify that I'm talking about the basic e-ink Kindle and not the Kindle Fire.

    That said, it's not like it's difficult to convert ePub files to a format the Kindle can play. Supposedly the new "Kindle Format 8" is basically just an ePub file but (a) wrapped up in proprietary bullshit and (b) with a mobipocket file built-in for backwards compatibility.
  • Uhhh, how do you do that collapsible folder thing that hides content until someone clicks the button thing I explained that well.

    Amusing thing: US standards have, since the 1960s, required at least two traffic signals facing each approach to an intersection, in case a bulb should fail in one of the signals.

    But older intersections were grandfathered in...and nowadays some of them have these stop signs as a failsafe:

    So did I.

    so it seems that Microsoft skipped over Windows NT almost entirely and lumped Windows 9x into one number when they named Windows 7 and 8

    but Windows 7 and 8 are Windows NT 6.1 and 6.2

    god damn their numbering system is just a cluster isn't it

    okay, here's what I'd guess the numbers would be

    -Windows 1.x
    -Windows 2.x
    -Windows 3.x
    -Windows 9x
    -XP
    -Vista
    -7
    -8

    again, that leaves NT in the dark but there ain't no way you're gonna get up to version 8.x on that front

    I guess that's why they're giving up numbers entirely with Windows Blue

    @Tre:

    The earlier versions of Windows NT were numbered to match their DOS-based counterparts. Windows NT 3.x had the interface of Windows 3.x, and Windows NT 4.0 had the interface of Windows 95 (which was internally version 4.0).

    And of course, Windows 2000 and Windows XP are both actually NT 5.x. So it kinda works, in a very convulted way.

    Good afternoon, Imi.

    What is for lunch?

    I slept absurdly late, so I'm just eating breakfast.

    I dunno how well Vanilla will handle tables, but here goes nothing:









    Version"Classic"NT
    1Windows 1.x
    2Windows 2.x
    3Windows 3.xWindows NT 3.x
    4Windows 95 (4.0)
    Windows 98 (4.1)
    Windows ME (4.9)
    Windows NT 4
    5Windows 2000 (5.0)
    Windows XP (5.1)
    6Windows Vista (6.0)
    “7”Windows 7 (6.1)
    “8”Windows 8 (6.2)
    Note that that's not strictly chronological order—Windows ME was released after Windows 2000, albeit in the same year.

    (Changed the font in the table to Courier New; that should make it look a little better. -lee)
