It comes from Satan's own backside, is bottled and shipped worldwide, where you will find it under the names of Good Stuff | [The good stuff]

and also "Marmite".
Both are identical, vile industrial waste packaged for sale to the gullible. Some love it - my sister used to put it on toast, then put the toast back under the grill to stink up the whole house.

It's a yeast extract with loads of vitamins added, and it's probably those that make it takes like cow flop mixed with nuclear waste, since I like yeast in both of its "primary forms": bread and Beer | [beer]

I'm told by people who have a tolerance that the two products are similar, but different.

Since you didn't like Vegemite, maybe give Marmite a go Laugh | :laugh:

Vegemite doesn't quite have the richness in flavour that Marmite has.
Marmite on heavily buttered thick wholegrain toast is real treat.

Personally I like Promite as a toast additive. Great Barrier Reef management experimented at injecting it into crown of thorns starfish (a coral eating pest) for a while, killed them stone dead.

So I got a couple of bob stickers as a booby prize for one of my articles.

But on the website Bob is a skinny lil green thang.

The stickers I got of him in the mail have him quite portly by comparison.

Someone's aspect ratio got twisted, or bob should maybe get some exercise.

It's tides. The stickers wax and wane in concert with the moons of his home world. We don't have the technology to do that with PNG files.

Only if you pre-program them for the whole cycle, and with 13.47 moons and a Dyson Sphere to work on that not really practical. You need a quantum processor with nanoparticle printing tech to do it properly, just like the stickers do.

Silly man! Just slap one of the stickers on the webserver, and then use the API it exposes! Wink | ;)

My webserver doesn't support quantum entangled data, or an LCARS interface compatible protocol driver. Sadly.

I'm trying to buy one on Amazon, but delivery is a problem with ZZ9PluralZα postcode. Even with Prime. Sigh | :sigh:

rumors suggest they're going to replace the stickers with line drawings that you color yourself

(crayon's not included - apparently the ones they got from china were so toxic they made claymore's look decidedly scrumptious. claymore - Imgur[^] )

I want to upgrade my products this year to target new .NET frameworks....

Christian Graus4-Jan-20 10:21

4-Jan-20 10:21

.NET doesn't make things obsolete. How old are your projects? What features do you want to start using? Do you plan on updating old code? What benefit are you hoping for?

OK, that's 2008. Your code will work in VS 2019, but it would be wise for you to learn about all the features that you're missing.

I'm holding out for 5. That will be my next big investment in terms of retooling, and relearning anything .NET related.

The reason is that this is when they supposedly are reunifying the frameworks, and thus eliminating the split between standard/core/dnf.

Which means we finally get spans and refs in DNF. That will make my code worth updating.

Christian Graus4-Jan-20 15:49

I thought Core was just catching up. There's too many differences in stuff like EF to unite them. EF core is basically a hideous nightmare.

What is DNF? What are spans? Reference variables don't exist somewhere?

honey the codewitch4-Jan-20 17:11

4-Jan-20 17:11

sorry, DNF = .NET Framework, as opposed to Core or Standard.

Microsoft says they'll be united in .NET 5. So take it up with them. I'm just hoping it isn't bull. I'm tired of this nonsense of 3 different .NETs.
