Can you really be a complete idiot if you're missing a few pieces?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Quote: SBS's weekly gabbin' session Insight aired the first of two episodes exploring the weird and wonderful phenomena that is identical twins [...].
Among the revelations [...] there was the case of the DeCinque twins from Perth.
How are these two special? They have undergone cosmetic surgery to look more identical. Okay, weird but not too bad. They share everything including a bed. Getting odd now.
The share a boyfriend. If you have any sense stop here.
They want to get pregnant at the same time from the one guy!
Stop it Australia, just stop it!

Really, you should heap Kudos upon them what be down under.
After all, if they didn't have this to their credit, someone else would have to take their place. Sure, in the states we have Texass. Across the Atlantic, of course, you've the entire Euro-Zone (specifically France) but basically, they've lighted the burden on your shoulders.
So stand up - lift a pint - and thank them for their services in this regard.

I've had enough of it. In case anyone else is enduring it up to this point, the solution is to disable JavaScript for MSDN pages. For FireFox I'm now using the addon "YesScript" for that and it works great, pages load as fast as before MS elephanted it up.

You can do it directly in Chrome:
"Settings"..."Show advanced settings..."
"Privacy...Content settings..."
"Javascript...Manage exceptions..."
Add "msdn.microsoft.com" and set "Behavior" to "Block"
Press "Done" twice.
But I don't notice any difference - it doesn't seem dramatically slow to load to me even with JS enabled:

Maybe it was in conjunction with FireFox, which of course, MS didn't care to test. Though I think I checked it with IE 11 some time ago and it was the same delay (~8 seconds).

Just wait a while longer and they'll give you a popup alert to "This site works best (if at all) with Windows 10" . . . . . . .

Once again, JavaScript fecks things up and we, the development community, keep using it. I really should make my trillions by writing an alternative that [a] works and [ii] doesn't screw up everything it touches.
