Last night was a potato and chickpea curry, with leftover roast chicken from Sunday, served with a Peshwari Naan.
The curry was very nice, but I bought in the Naan as we don't have a tandoor and it was gawd awful. Stodgy and tasted like a mince pie.
Tonight Herself is cooking, so it'll probably be bought in kebab in a raw pitta full of coleslaw.
As you may have guessed, she's not interested in cooking.

Wow, have we reached that deep level of conversation ? I think that after all these years, we are heading straight to the counselor

Last night was a real treat. Beans on toast! Yummy!
Being in the US, real beanz are harder to come by - so this isn't as common as you might think.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

No wonder they're replacing the rendering engine with Chromium.
And reasons for why I'm posting this will be explained at some point.

Internet Explorer, because "better the devil you know..."

A long time ago I made a very primitive webpage to collect my bookmarks. It has a background image, a title image, and a table of two columns with all of the links. I have used this page for about twenty years to hold my frequently visited links and it has worked fine with every browser I have tried it on this entire time except for Edge.
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

Same here, but three columns.

My favorite part is that I have to run the Microsoft Teams web app in chrome because it doesn't work for me in Edge.

Unfortunately, installing "just about any other browser" at work is not an option.

Edge is microsoft's attempt at punishing the public for abolishing internet explorer
what? our security sucks. Here. Have NO plugins. *sticks out tongue*
And get stuck with our crappy rendering engine.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I use Edge for about 95% of my browsing. The other 5% is IE. I have to ask what weird sites people are going to for Edge to not work. (In fact, I'm typing in Edge right now.)

I burst out laughing when I read that. You are so right on the mark there!
I tried my article on divs and tables in Edge. What crap. I'm working on a simple pure Javascript HTML with Preview "page", and it looks beautiful in Chrome. Edge, well, let's just say it's like a rusty knife with a really dull edge. Rather useless and you might get some disease from it.

The everlasting struggle of developers and naming stuff...
I'm not quite happy with my current project names (they're a bit longish, Company.Domain.Project.Data, for example), but what's bothering me even more at the moment is my own naming convention in Azure.
I prefer PascalCased, like ThisIsMyWebApp, which is fine, except for other resources, like a SQL Server, which only allows lower characters.
Long story short, I now have:
MyWebApp
my-sql-server
mystorageaccount
I'm now leaning more towards my-sql-server style for everything unless -'s are not possible, like with storage accounts.
If this is what I'm worrying about everything must go pretty well, and it does, but this kind of stuff bothers me more than it should

Just add an X at the end comment it with something like "add modern experiences for Windows 10 users" 
I'd rather be phishing!

I usually use swear words for naming things. It makes coding so much more amusing. 
|
|
|
|
|
So would it be B****A**M************WebApp or b****-a**-m************-web-app? 
|
|
|
|

Pretty much like that!
Of course the member functions of 'MassiveWhore' are very amusing!

var yoMomma = new MassiveWhore();

I'll take an F.
I'd like to buy a vowel Pat, U!
I'd like to solve that Puzzle Pat...
Sorry, could NOT resist.
On the topic, I often throw a little slang around when I get bored with naming. An example would be a module I wrote to get domain whois data. I named the function "WhoIsDis" and another "WhoIsDat" for the string data received.
