Well, that was part of Netiquette where I used it. You'd better not BCC someone if you really meant to CC them. There truly were instances where BCC is warranted. Mostly where the follow ups are of too deep a nature for the BCC'd to care about, and you don't trust everyone else you are continuing the discussion with to know the difference between who cares and who does not.

Most cases are CC, but there are a few where you want BCC. Or at least will take advantage of it when its there.

No, I want BCC. That way people on the BCC don't get the replies; people on the CC do (they stay on the thread).

BCC = 1 reply no followups. CC = all followups.

If something's sent to the group and you want the group to know you're sending a reply about a topic they might not care get the followups on. Like you may be interested in X but don't want to see all the back and forth that comes after.

I've always put who I BCC'd to in the body. It's common courtesy.

In both ie and firefox i combine the toolbar and menu bar into one. I've been doing this for years

I wonder how long it will be before some Anonymous fan decides to kill a few people to prove a point. I always said during the Bush years that I was glad that the paranoid nutjobs (the 9/11 truthers) all appeared to be on the Left this decade. It was such a drag when the militia idiots were in the news all the time.

It does not imply Google is better. (although google may be in fact better, copying them does not imply that). It implies that google is the Leader (no One disputes that) and MS finds value in making their results match Google. People are comfortable when they find "x is the same as y" so they will be more willing to UsE either.

In windows they are called carets (typing) and cursors (mouse) . I miss the really old days (win31) when you'd sometimes call your own caret create and destroy functions. You could have two! :)

There are no atheists during Orgasms or when you bang your knee.

Nothing really works with .mht anymore, anyway. I used to use it to save web page receipts, etc. no more.

Gee, that sounds like - a De Facto standard. Like MS Word .doc format! Guess evil is in the eye of the beholder.

Can you still do packet data over HAM? Back in "the day" that was like the coolest TCP trick.

Since it's Al-Jazeera, I strongly expect that this is Propaganda. Maybe the former spooks at the KGB are helping the Iranians. It's the Cold War all over again.

For those who don't remember the Abortion debate in the 80s , it was a lot like Gw. Both sides really intense. Finally you just learned not to bring it up. Both sides too strongly belief in their own POV, no possibility of rational debate. Sex, religion, politics - not possible to discuss in public

It's like 25GB and pictures from my iphone is growing ~5-10 GB year. When I run out, I'll create another login.

It's kind of slow uploading unless you compress them as you upload - like 10X faster.

I upload the originals uncompressed. I use UNXUTILS for windows to call split.exe to split the MPGs into 50MB chunks. It doesn't play back movies anyway.

Then I can browse them on the phone!

If you like really old and/or REALLY REALLY bad (think: unbearably awful), then Netflix Streaming is for you. Except for the occasional non-stinker.
