I have a similar issue with my contacts, and was told it was for the same reason. The corrected area in both laser surgery and when wearing contacts doesn't cover the entire pupil when it's fully dilated, as it is in the dark. So I reach for the ever reliable specs when I want to go stargazing.

Perhaps if you'd read more than the headline you'd see that this is not what IR remotes and lasers have been doing for ages, at all.

It's actually a pretty good summation of a very clever bit of engineering. What's your beef?

I agree. And yet, I recognise that this is just my opinion, and I don't expect everyone else to confirm to my sense of humour.

Right. Because posts like yours in response to what is actually quite an interesting and newsworthy event in the commercial space sector - and not just another crazy pipe dream from old man Musk - aren't masturbatory at all.

You clearly know nothing about extrapolation. The more legs you break, the faster it goes!

Obviously the solution is to break one of your own legs to level the playing field.

Is it that easy? My understanding was that you'd at least have to have identical versions of the compilation tools to have any hope of coming close to a bit-for-bit match on the binary.

What if you want to do something about malware, but don't want the hassle of re-enabling javascript when you actually want it to work (because, contrary to popular belief, it can actually be employed usefully)? What if you're too lazy to install another piece of software, or just don't want to install another piece of software? What if, god forbid, someone has different an idea on what to do about malware to you?

Well, good news! Because as you carefully omitted to quote, "...if no other software is available to do so." So it'll be just like you don't have another PDF reader.

TL:DR; this isn't how I use computers, therefore this isn't how anyone should use computers

I came in here for an argument!

I've no idea what that means but I feel dirty after reading it.

Maybe it's common parlance down your way, but what does RIF mean? Recently Inconveniently Fired? Real Imitation Fur? Raw Industrial Faeces?

Immigants! I knew it was them. Even when it was the bears, I knew it was them.

First you ask him to put pants on.

Seems no different to flipping a coin until you get heads. When you flip heads, stop.

Not quite sure how it provide evidence of anything, though. Someone who flips 10 tails in a row either a) has found themselves in a 10-tail universe with a probability of 1/1024 or b) happens to have flipped 10 tails in a row in the one universe which exists, also with a probability of 1/1024.
