If I accidentally enable scroll lock with an external keyboard on my Lenovo ThinkPad, it becomes impossible to work at home in Excel because the cursor behavior changes. And turning it off is almost impossible. I found a solution – the on-screen keyboard from Windows accessibility features. Lenovo came up with a cool idea by placing the Fn button where the usual Ctrl used to be, removing the scroll and introducing a touchpad whose entire surface is sensitive. I’ve been unable to get used to the touchpad for two years.

These are my tasty treats. Every shopping trip starts with this department. I’ve accumulated some:) Maris is in the lead for now

I wonder, if you turn right on a green light when the right arrow is off, but the straight green is on, does this count as running a red/prohibitory signal? After all, there is no prohibitory signal, right? It’s just that there is no permissive signal.

Made it on a board from Serpukhovskaya to Tverskaya, popped into “Ziferblat” to play and accidentally came across a sketching class. They’re talking about Katsushika Hokusai. Interesting so far 🙂 great day 🙂

Learned a bit! Cruising around the center of Moscow. Spent about half an hour on training to enjoy it and not dismount every 30 meters. Awesome!

Can anyone explain why a Moscow State University student can’t relocate permanently to another country, on her own initiative, even if it’s recognized by many other states as “bad”? More than 8 million people live in ISIS, and their army consists of about 200,000. There seem to be no proofs that she was sent there as a terrorist. What if a person likes the Sharia laws and the caliphate, what’s the point of forcibly bringing them back? Would anyone care if she were 50 years old? Where is the line?

The only reasonable cause for her return, in my opinion, would be evidence that she didn’t go there to live and have children, but to kill people (using TNT or rifles – doesn’t really matter). But so far, no one mentions that (which means nothing)

I’ve been pondering the peculiar way Microsoft numbers its versions.

First there came three versions of Windows 1, 2, and 3 (not counting 2.1 and 3.1), and then there was an immediate leap to 95 and 98. Next, they opted for letter names – NT, ME, and XP. That didn’t last long either, and along came Vista.

It seems their creativity ended there, and Microsoft decided to return to using numbers. They figured the next version should be Windows 7, followed by Windows 8, continuing the numbering.

One would think the next version would be 9, but Microsoft decided to call it 10.

I just opened my Windows version window, and on my Windows 7 it shows version 6.1. http://clip2net.com/s/3iShYGb

Yet, the latest Windows 10 is NT version 10. Where version 9 went, only Microsoft knows.

It turns out that in MS there are separate versions, and separate commercial names, which are very similar to the versions.

Windows 95 is NT 4.0,

Windows 98 is NT 4.1

Windows 2000 is NT 5.0

Windows XP is NT 5.1

Windows Vista is NT 6.0

Windows 7 is NT 6.1

Windows 8 is NT 6.2

Windows 8.1 is NT 6.3

Windows 10 is NT 10

The earliest version I extensively worked with was Windows 3.11. Interestingly, version 3.2 only exists in Chinese.

Today marks exactly one month since I decided without any apparent reason to stop eating anything containing sugar and flour. It’s certainly not possible to completely eliminate both, but I managed to ensure that the bulk of my calories come from other foods. The hardest part was learning to drink unsweetened tea and not to eat the crispy crusts of freshly baked bread in restaurants. Pastries, cakes, and candies have never evoked much of a feeling in me. As a result, I don’t eat sandwiches and don’t drink various colas. Now, cola seems so “bleh” that I wouldn’t drink it even if I was dying of thirst:) Beer, noodles in soup, and sugar in pickled chili don’t count as restrictions.

As a side effect, almost five kg down.

Early in the morning I had English, translating a fairy tale. Here’s a little task for you: how would you translate the phrase “Жалко старику старуху, жалко сына и дочку.”?

See, that’s just how you are. You took a big piece for yourself and left me a small one.

– And what would you have done?

– I would have taken a small piece for myself.

– Well then, why are you yelling? I gave you exactly that.
