But in Windows 10 if you have the file explorer open you can search from there, which makes more sense.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

In Unity, you simply open the start menu (or whatever it is called) and start typing. Sometimes, the old ways to do things are just that: Old. Not good, simply old.

Nor am I, but I can run a sewing machine, at least the basics. Enough to make replacement curtain liners for the house, and to put a new zipper in Herself's favourite raincoat.
They are complicated machines them: have a look at how they sew and it's amazing that anyone came up with it. Poetry in motion that bottom shuttle (or whatever it's called).

For which you should be extremely grateful: People will walk hundreds of miles to get away from it! Indeed, most will run, with their fingers firmly in their ears, screaming "LA LA LA LA" at the top of their voices. Some will need counseling.

I bought a machine and make all my own backpacking gear. Very basic stuff but it's a hell of a lot cheaper than buying it.

Absolutely. I sleep in a hammock and the tarps they sell barely cover the hammock and unless the rain is straight down you're going to get wet. So I made one that will not only cover well but I can cook and sit under it if a good rain comes...and it does rain in Florida. Also it's very light weight.

The last three years BBC has run a competitive sewing programme (The Great British Sewing Bee). The vast majority of contestants have been under 35 with the youngest just 19. Sewing's big in Britain!

Although the winner of one season was 81 years old!

Aha! So you admit she wasn't 75!

No, that was the runner up in the next season. She was 75. She died later that year, I believe. At least she got to do the competition.

Now you're just making stuff up!  You should know that I am a big fan so you'll not get these things past me ...
2013 Winner F81, Runners-Up F27, F48
2014 Winner F56, Runners-Up F26, F40
2015 Winner M37, Runners-Up F59, M46
There has actually never been a 75 year old contestant. I should however correct my previous statement about the youngest competitor who is in the current competition and is 18, not 19 as I typoed!

Aha! You passed the test!
I believe it was Lorna who was the runner up on season 3 who died later. She was actually 69, not 59.

Because sewing machines are all computerised, these days, so they're too technical for him.

So William Newton Wilson found the 1790 paintings of Thomas Saint in 1874 and built a working model.
But Walter Hunt invented the first American lockstitch sewing machine in 1832 and John Greenough patented the first sewing machine in the United States in 1842?
Then how was William Newton Wilson the first in 1874?

Maybe the key is "built a working model" v. invented / patented.

Single threaded or multi threaded sewing machine?
