Not officially, but sometimes something interesting crops up. Lately we've been working on a 3.2.1 patch of a product. So we're calling it the 'Ted Rogers' patch.

Hi All,
With the sudden ammount of time on my hands, I thought I would investigate drive Z: which appeared on my parents Win10 box some time ago, like any faiely savvy user "this is odd", I though, "lets use google to look it up", which I did, it appear to be a virtual swap drive that was created during install, open up Disk Manager squash it get 39MB back fine. I just the used the Admin account to update permissions for something find a refernce to Z Drive in File Explorer grayed out with a dirty great question mark. So open Disk Manager nothing there, go back to user account Z: isn't there in Disk Manager not there. So I am confused, if it's deleted should the icon just disappear or has it reappeared due to some strange issues and has no size as an installer had a need to see a Z: not use it?  .

I Wend this box from WinHate so I didn't know I could go back to Weven, mind Wend seems to be okay for most things it get used for...

How is the drive actually partitioned now?
I would open the drive in something like Paragon Partition Manager to check this.

Noticed something like it once on W10. Not sure if it was a Z or another letter, but it was evidently due to a pending Windows Update. Once it updated via a reboot it disappeared. Why? Because Microsoft knows best, I guess.

A few weeks ago, I asked the question, Flat vs Curved when it comes to TVs.
Flat vs Curved[^]
Well, I took the plunge and bought a new telly.
I came off the platform and the wife picked me up from the heli-port and on the way home, I decided to pop into one of the local Samsung distributor shops and check out which new and old versions they had on display and what prices were going for.
After wandering around and wondering what to consider, looking at the sizes, prices, styles, flat vs curved etc. etc.
In the end, I actually purchased one smaller than I was originally considering and decided to go with curved. I went with Samsung TV 65" KS8500: SUHD Quantum Dot, Curved & Smart TV[^].
A few reasons I elected for this;
a) The curve is really not that curved, even the wife changed her view once she saw it.
b) The picture quality was absolutely stunning
c) It was on 20% cashback offer and also came with a free Samsung R7, 360 speaker[^]
The guy asked when do I want it delivered, to which he got the usual, the sooner the better response, and he came back with, how about this evening? That will do for me! After being in the shop headed down to the school to pickup the kids and while we were there, got a phone call saying they were reading to delivery, so much for evening! They would have to wait until 4.30 before we would be back, so they would come back then.
Anyway, the guys rocked up and carried it into the house, and were a bit surprised when I said just to leave it as I needed to sort everything out first. They came with a free wall mount and also had all their tools ready to fire this puppy up on the wall!
After moving out the old telly and sorting all the cables out put it into place and fired it up....and what a picture. At the distance we normally sit on the sofa, you don't even notice it is curved, and the height it is at make it just look like a normal flat rectangle. Still to get a console fired up for a spot of CoD, but after a week of use, I am absolutely delighted with the purchase! Given the choice as well, means that I have effectively saved 75% of my budget for buying other stuff

Bummer, at first I thought this was going to be a debate on curved vs. flat earth and thought there would be some good entertainment. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Could also have been about women, but then I think Nadia would have given Dave a proper slapping!

Contact Ben Carson - he'll debate this with you (albeit slowly).

Here's your controversy. Flat earth belief hasn't really ever been a thing.
It's a myth of the modern world.

Hasn't it been scientifically established without any doubt that the earth is flat on 3 sides and octagonal on the fourth?

We have a Samsung smart TV. We are thinking of getting another one for the game room (kids, etc.). Will look at the curved panels also.
Thanks for the update.

Not many of us can say that.

Sitting a bit back from the screen I first read it as hell port.
BTW, been to Hell, nice little town in Norway, neat postcards, beats America by a long way (except for the coffee, no not USA - their coffee sucks esp. that from starbogs, of course I meant America: an even tinier town in Holland.)
Sin tack ear lol

You got a Samsung? I hope it doesn't explode.

Their phones explode, now their washing machines explode too. I've heard of companies intentionally designing things to fail at the end of the warranty but this is becoming ridiculous.
Also, I haven't owned a Samsung product that lasted more than a year before dying except my current Galaxy S4
