I remember programming a VT-52 emulator once, a long time ago.

I have an old Pentium II generation notebook with Win XP. At the moment I use this old thing to run a terminal emulation, but it does not feel right. Using the original monitor and keyboard with the microcontroller hidden in the keyboard case should be a little more authentic.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I can't remember if it was on this forum that somebody was complaining about the inactive title bar being left white in the update but here's a useful tip[^] to get colour back in your snoozing windows if it does irk you. Note, however, my comment at the end of the article. It may take more fiddling than it's worth.

Ugh. I do wish they would bring aero back. I really like it.
There's this[^]
but:
Since the functionality is under testing, Microsoft decided to perform A/B test on it. In other words, 50% of Windows 10 users will get the new Aero glass transparency with blur effect in Start menu and Taskbar but remaining 50% will get standard transparency without glass and blur effects on Start menu and Taskbar.
Another reason I haven't "upgraded" to W10 (I'm still on W7.) I do not want to be a guinea pig for Microsoft! (more than I am already, I imagine.)

Not quite sure I follow the logic there as you can override the default you get in the A/B test and presumably the more people that do that the more likely MS will be to bring Aero back. You Guineapigist, you!!!

The A/B testing was done during the public beta period. If you don't sign up for W10 insider, you won't have to deal with any of that sort of fun.
One of the reasons I dislike the site you linked to is that the sunshines running it are severely date-phobic; so there's no indication its content is woefully out of date.
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?

....what's the chances of an owner of a Dashcam company getting shunted by a Lorry and recording it on a Guesswhat[^]
I wonder how long he was driving up and down that Motorway, hogging the middle lane.

Apparently the full vid is available on his site, and the answer is for some time. Guy was driving like a jerk, I hope he gets prosecuted from his own footage.

Me too.
And not only him, there are quite a bunch more that deserve it as well.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Trying to drive onto the Aston Expressway about half five this evening a lorry was parked on top of a car in the middle of the slip road.
That was causing one or two problems.
The fella jumping out of the car didn't look very happy either.

look up the word maiden...
example: Maiden voyage -- the first voyage.
So, you are correct.

Indeed, but as Sander pointed out with the term "maiden", which I decided to you instead of the term virgin so as to be, well, more PC (Poetically Clifton???)

A quick search gave me 5865 possibilities...
So, you have two options: add a clue or face the list! 
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

He won't add one until you post at least 4 or 5 guesses from those possibilities

I gave the 'a' list...

Just when went through your 'a' list.
Woahh, you gotta be the winner no matter what the right answer is.
