This is getting way out of hand. If you're cooking, you should be standing there watching it to make sure something doesn't catch fire.

If so, in what way the oven is smart?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I would guess that, if you buy one it has to be smarter then you.
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

Well, having my oven timer "bounced" on my phone could be practical.
I can imagine an "intelligent" oven that can be programmed from a recipe that would turn up or down the heat at certain time, or inject some steam for some recipes.
I'd rather be phishing!

Likewise. We moved in to new apartment a month and half ago and stopped going to supermarket. There are people from nearby village who come every morning with fresh vegetables. Yes the produce is not as shiny as it is in supermarket but somehow look, well, real. This adds one chore to wash away the soil in the leafs and roots but it is worth it. Plus, we feel we are doing something good for these farmers.

And like every other 'innovative' real food company (read anyone and anything but soylent's sludge) that's cropped up on the internet, they only offer family of 4 sized portions. Got a bigger family, well I hope it's 8 or 12 people at your table, smaller and you'd better learn to love left overs. I don't have a problem with cooking 2 meals worth of food for myself; but things I want to eat 4x within a week are few and far between.
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?

...my toilet was upgraded to Windows 10, but it was easy to un-doo.

That's a load of crap, John. Everyone knows the upgrade takes days.

Coincidentally, the other week, an attempt was made to "upgrade" my laptop to a cr@p OS.

Two nights ago my spare Win7 laptop was on while I was working with the primary laptop. I look up and it has started the Win10 upgrade by itself. Bah, Humbug. Let it finish (as there's no cancel button.)
Tried to get some old programs running -- a couple of hours later said to myself, why should I fight to get old reliable programs running? So started the "return to Win7 OS". After it was back to Win7, I installed the "GWX Control Panel." Kind of like using a plunger on the toilet to push out a blockage and throwing in some "Lime Away."

Partial text of a recent question:
Quote: I just concluded my Qbasic programming and next semester we are going into Java.
|
|
|
|

I saw a question about QBasic a few weeks and I was curious to see how QBasic works for me...and realized that I can't even install it...it was part of Windows in Me last time...So where they still use it as a learning tool?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
