| | The title of the new employee training module alone was a sign that times have changed. This topic never came up in all my years at any job. Here's the boil down of the course. > If there is an active shooter in the area, we suggest you first run …  |
| | I pulled up Opera and it had its VPN enabled. On the sites I clicked on Daniweb but was logged out so no biggy, log in. Then I went to Dazah.com and the matches felt off. Someone was zero miles away so I googled that company and it wasn't in …  |
| | When this news came across I only had to think of MSFT's prior acquisitions to think this may not end well. As the song goes " Should I Stay or Should I Go"? |

| | From Stardock's newsletter I read "Handles are killing your PC" and checked in on the apps and handles to discover the stock Killer Network app was way out there at over 906,000 (906 THOUSAND) handles. This was a pretty interesting find and had me off to the maker for latest …  |
| | Need to remind a coworker to lock their machine? Press Shift+Alt+Printscreen and answer yes. Most can't fix it. So be kind. |
| | As PCs age you enounter "The Dead PC" from time to time. Long ago I even owned a PC repair shop and learned a lot from the experience. But fast forward to today. While I know a bit about PC design something of a mystery to me is why folk …  |
| | A relative had a pretty beat up qualifying Windows laptop so I took a chance that this deal was still working. Read https://www.cnet.com/how-to/microsoft-windows-10-free-upgrade-offer-assistive-features/ but the new expiry date is now Jan 16, 2018.

| | In light of the self driving car discussion I thought I'd start revving folk up about the electric cars we have today. For me it was almost by accident I moved into my current EV which is a 2014 Nissan Leaf SV. I have a nice enough van but I …  |
| | I've been asked many times how to play Video DVD and Blu-Ray (BR) on Windows for years. Until now I've always lamented the lack of free BR player software. But last week the CNET Cheapskate published a freebie player. I'll try it in a few days. Link -> https://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-watch-dvds-for-free-in-windows-10/ Most … |

| | https://www.daniweb.com/articles/latest/2/2 and scroll to the bottom. I see a navigation aid there and it shows a [3] yet it takes me to page 2. Maybe this is by design but it looks a little off. Not a big bug. Just a minor thing. |
| | While I can't pretend to know what happened to block me from Daniweb, imagine less imaginitive souls. Maybe an article is required about what to do with post or login troubles? |
| | On a longer discussion the 21st post went to page 2. Yet I could not navigate to the 2nd page or get to the 21st post. Making another post fixed it but still it's something. Not an end of the world type bug. Hope you can replicate it. First encountered … |

| | For years I've seen the industry trend more and more to where you can only fix something by replacing it. Now it is expensive to have a good tech to do work so this bill may further impede those that offer repair services. I'll pause here and offer a video … |
| | First it's great to have an edit feature so that's good. What I notice after the last big change is that if I edit that works but the Save Changes button when clicked doesn't seem to work. Well, it does work but you must be patient and know not to … |
| | For reference see image at http://i.imgur.com/NUUcLel.png While it clears up on a page reload, it's humorous to see over 2 million downvotes. Just reporting, not asking for a fix. |
| | There's a lot of chatter about W10 but just tripped over this due a complaint about network speed fluctuations. Here's a google about what I turned off. https://www.google.com/#q=disable+windows+10+sharing+updates  |
| | One of the best tips I learned long ago was to turn on all warnings and error messages from the compiler or development system. Yet last week, once again a big system was being worked on and the bug was tracked down to *uninitialized variable*. Now this isn't specific to … |
| | I didn't see anyone bring up how VW and other companies have lost their integrity. We know those that code "bad things" may lack a moral compass but when I've worked in large groups or companies not once was there any question about doing the job in a dishonest way. … |
