Same for multi-monitor task bars. Dropped in WinXP, brought back in Windows 8.

In other news, the chocolate ration has been increased to 20 grams.

Erm... you realize that nobody in this thread implied that people have problems with 4:3 monitors, right?

Actually, make that almost nobody. By posting this defensive response to your invisible friend, you implied that somebody - your invisible friend - has problems with 4:3.

Actually, if you like square monitors, this one is even better than a 4:3 display.

Since there's no display standard that can do 4k at 60Hz, this monitor works around that limitation by conceptually presenting itself as two 8:9 monitors side-by-side.

So not only do you get two monitors in one, but 8:9 is closer to square than 4:3.

Time to have the protocol droid's mind wiped.

Flathead drive doesn't have much going to it, but if your goal is to pick a screw that you can unscrew when you have limited access to tools, this is one of the few places where flatheads shine, especially if you have no screwdrivers.

Taking that to its logical conclusion, thumb screws would be even better. Who wouldn't want two thumbscrews sticking out the bottom of their phone?

Roy Underhill: You're making a square, I've got to ask, how did you make that first square?

I'm not sure which browser you're praising, since both have been able to do this for quite some time.

Yeah, it's been pretty good for science, actually. In addition to this new discovery, another one of these deep mines in the shield made for an excellent neutrino observatory.

Huh, I had no idea franchise laws like this existed.

I'm no supporter of laissez-faire capitalism, but it really seems like dealers should be able to get this protection via contractual stipulations rather than laws.

I'm pretty sure the GP was talking about Alot, the town in India. It should have read:

Yeah. Deal with it.

Look, I like Linux, and it has a lot of benefits that Windows doesn't have, but when you say that Linux has everything that Windows has, you make it clear that you're either:

• * Lying to us,
• * Lying to yourself, or
• * Gravely short sighted

Do you really want people to think those things about you? And do you think you're helping the Linux with an image like that?

You're looking through history for examples where humans have treated an entire race as slaves, and the best you can come up with is domesticated animals?

Boredom counts as an input.

Perhaps the Voight-Kampff test?

Paper documents went out of vogue a long time ago. Your choice now is whether the digital documents are made private or public.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
