You are correct, my bad, how about ten to the power of twelve?

Thank you.

All of them are done with javascript and chrome, some with WebGL and some with the 2d canvas, I use visual studio to write them.

For a lot of the fractal images, I use this page: Fractal Designer[^]

AKA "a country where their billionaires don't know what being really rich means".

Funny how the word "milliard" (or a direct translation thereof) exists in every western language, including English, but is not used in one relatively minor dialect of English.

Not true. I have heard more than one Mercan use this word. They didn't know what it meant but they still used it!

Far and away more people use proper English, rather than the Merkin dialect.

The point with "milliard" and "billion", though, is that if you use "milliard", rather than use "billion" improperly, you cannot be misunderstood.

I don't care if it is a billon or a trillion. Could you just send me that many (whatever it is) US dollars? I think I'd be ok then and could handle watching the light pulse in the laser all day long and not spend my days trying to outsmart SQL Server! Smile | :)

Carlos the Jackal - Killer

Car = Converyance
Lost = Misplaced
HE = Ambassador (His Excellency)
Jack = Lever up
Al = Spanish for "the".

What is even better than that is the fact that you got it despite my mis-spelling of Jackal.

EL?

WTF?

I can do better than that!

Well done.

Have gone back to using Internet Explorer after dumping it 5 years ago for Firefox. I am loving it ! It goes without saying IE 10 is the best browser around at the moment.

Yet to try IE 11, I am still using Windows 8. Is there much difference?

Pablo Aliskevicius13-Aug-14 22:30

Yes.
11 is faster. Almost as fast as Chrome or Opera.
According to my subjective impression (not measurement), slightly faster than Firefox.

Faster than Chrome and definitely feels smoother than Chrome for me.

You just say that because you need no support a product on IE8-11, Chrome, FF, Safari and Opera... Cry | :((

I really don't think so. Maybe you're using the Windows 8 styled Internet Explorer, I dumped it for Google Chrome 4 years ago, I installed Windows 8 but still I am dumping it for Google Chrome!

Was Windows 8 there 4 years ago? Laugh | :laugh:
