  • Windows Phone 8

    @magicalclick: I'm on about virii targeting NT itself not the OS personality on top of it.

    Plus WP8 apps are likely to be WinRT compatible, so they could target but the phone and the "desktop" feeding grounds. Unless there some magical sandbox technology Microsoft hasn't told use about. (Drawbridge?)

  • Windows Phone 8

    So longs it (WP8) doesn't prompt you for elevation to before letting you dial a number.

    Then again it minimise the number of drunk texting.

     

    Another thing doesn't that mean that the WP8 is susceptible to Windows (Desktop OS) virii & other nefarious coding ? If so where to the AV software fit? Carrier responsibility (Push based) or phone based?

  • Got an error installing the update to NuGet

    Run VS as Administrator, and the UnInstall option is available. 

    Uninstall -> Restart -> Install new version.

  • Fire Bad!

    It's part programming against hardware, adjust for minimum smoke.  Big Smile

  • Google's search has become a piece of poo

    Wthout the plus symbol the result was OR

    eg Apples Pears

    I'm looking for a page containing the word Apples or Pears (which also includes both)

     

    With the plus symbol the was AND

    eg +Apples +Pears

    I'm looking for a page containing both words Apples and Pears,  and exclude any page that has one one of them.

     

    Double quotes was for exact spelling, useful for when the word or phrase contains a space.

     

    eg "Starship Enterprise"


    So how do you now, do the different type of searches.

  • Is There an Afterlife?

    @spivonious: The different between Science and Religion, Science knows it doesn't it doesn't know everything, whereas Religion does; It's God Will / Plan / Design etc, etc.

  • Music made with single lines of C code

    Was this written by Richard MacDuff? (DNA reference for you @Charles)

  • Is There an Afterlife?

    @Charles: Deep Thought states itself it is the second greatest computer. 

  • Is There an Afterlife?

    Do you want to believe there is an afterlife? Then yes there is an afterlife?

    Do you want to believe there isn't an afterlife? Then there isn't afterlife?

    Believe want ever you want to believe, as long as keeps you happy and contented.

     

    To me an more interesting is why you are asking? Since the moment you were born, you were destined to die, by some random chance you have a long existence. Organised religion to me, are all about power, money and control, or obfuscating access to certain knowledge. Some time in ancient history some monkey spotted the   regularity of the seasons. It though I shall mark the shortest day of the year (Winter Solstice) with a banana eating party (and do the things that banana eating parties lead to), Some other monkey thought I'll plant my corn on this day. Etc. Etc. Later on as the Monkey population grew a more powerful Monkey, though we need a way to teach the seasons, I know create some imaginary monkeys and tell the other monkeys of their exploits, Then some Monkey thought of the concept of basic currency and some other jealous monkey want more of it. It thought I now I'll create a "protection" group to protected and coordinate the other monkeys (state) and I'll charge them a fee (alms / taxes)..
