You should've told him you follow the regular jeweler's prices for this type of work.

Damn! Now I realize why the mirror of my DSLR fell out two weeks ago. I'm gonna uninstall W10 straight away. Should fix the mirror just fine.

My dear wife and I hit a rough patch every time I "upgrade" her machine. Recently, when I converted her machine to Windows 10, she complained that the Edge browser was so very different from IE11, among other issues. So I offered to take her back to Windows 7. Then she said: "You're going to take away all these neat games that came with 10?!" I said: "Yes". And that was the end of the complaints about 10.

How are they different?
URL bar and content area are there, use Google if you can't remember an URL.

There are differences. One problem was that she had too many items in the Favorites Bar. In Edge it results in every item in the bar being displayed as a star, with the result that you have no idea what each star represents.

Never used that. I'm happy with the URL Bar autocomplete. While this is my personal opinion on the fav bar, MS should've thought about that. But I guess that's the problem with developing for "normal people": Some of their problems go over our head.

My problem was convincing her Edge was the new IE. She then wanted to know why they changed the name then.

Good one! Reminds me of a recent tech support episode with my father-in-law who wanted to move his WAP. I recommended using the home-wiring adapters. I use them and they work great. Anyway, after moving his WAP and setting it up per my instructions, the WAP quit working. He even moved it back to the original location and it wouldn't work. He was convinced that plugging the WAP into the home-wiring adapter had fried it and had gotten pissed that I had ruined his fairly new and expensive WAP!
Half an hour later, after downloading the manual, I noticed that there was a button on the top of the unit to turn off wireless. Sure enough, I called back and asked him to click it, and he says 'I didn't know that was a button! Wow, now it's lighting up!...uhhh, sorry about those names I called you earlier.'

Ignore him.
He was been reported as a spammer an hour ago: cle_elum is a spammer - CodeProject[^] and if you check his other messages he's either trolling for the fun of it or he's on crystal meth. Possibly both.
Whatever: DNFTT!

That is written in Indian English.
Soon, everybody in the world will have to learn what they mean when they make such statements, just because they will soon outnumber native speakers of English.

You would need to take this up with the Hamsters themselves: Bugs and Suggestions - CodeProject[^] - only they have access to the DB directly to see what happened.
