web apps kinda made desktop apps redundant in all but a few use cases IMHO.-urlwolf (June 28, 2017, 05:48 AM)

I'd say quit trying to figure it out, and contact them.-wraith808 (June 27, 2017, 05:04 PM)
That's on tomorrow's to-do list. But it's compounded by the fact I'll be calling on behalf of the client, and will possible need to engineer my way past GD support identity verification ... Assuming they have any.
So I was hoping there was an alternate (configuration based) option that I could get at more easily ... Since I have CP access to the account.
Normally I'm quite good at the SE type stuff, but lately the office environment has turned into a constantly toxic epic shit-storm. So I - like most of the staff - spend most of my days stressed to the max because the owner has turned into the vitriolic red queen from Alice in Wonderland prowling the office looking for something/anything to scream at or about. *Shrug* It's really just too fucking hard to think straight in that type of atmosphere. But I'd like to get this client's project done before I completely shutdown and start focusing on looking for another job.

What strikes me about DC is that I go to other SMF forums, and it's night and day as far as the features.Can you elaborate? I can't tell if you're saying that DC is better or worse-mouser (June 26, 2017, 09:51 AM)
There are so many customizations that I take for granted - the ability to highlight and quote. The hyperlink popping up a dialog instead of just putting the tags in. Same for images. Non-image attachments. And those are just the beginning. You tend to take for granted all of of the custom code that's been put in the platform."exact (sub)string match."-sba (June 26, 2017, 08:37 AM)
My first thought jokingly of course...is that it takes them longer to enter spaces verses tabs and if they get paid by the hour...then more time was spent with spaces...-hamradio (June 25, 2017, 09:58 PM)
I highly recommend the Sniper Elite series, which is now on sale. DC member Skwire and I have played the last few years of it cooperatively and it has been a hoot.-mouser (June 24, 2017, 09:28 PM)
Man...we've had some times, eh? LOL. "Let's go to war..."
Dishonored 2 for $20 is a damn steal, too. Get that without hesitation.-skwire (June 24, 2017, 09:36 PM)
But anyway, I've been using Steam less and less over the past few years, mostly because of the glut of crap that has gotten on the storefront through Greenlight (which has recently been discontinued), and also because I've begun to appreciate the value in DRM-free games more and more (hooray for GOG!). That said, it might be fun if people use this thread as an opportunity to recommend good games to each other that are worth picking up during the sale.-Deozaan (June 24, 2017, 08:54 PM)
As Deozaan says, it also means that you (you special snowflake!) is trying to dictate how wide my indents are supposed to be, instead of letting that be up to my editor settings. Editor settings that probably vary depending on whether I'm on a machine with big monitors, or editing in Vim through SSH.-f0dder (June 21, 2017, 10:06 AM)

I have 192 GB on mine currently.-wraith808 (June 19, 2017, 04:01 PM)
How big is it?-Arizona Hot (June 19, 2017, 04:03 PM)
100GB is online backup, which makes the title misleading I find (I know: technically... still misleading).
Any chance you could correct your post? Thanks-tomos (June 18, 2017, 02:16 PM)
I think everyone here knows that there is no way you could get 132 MB of storage in a phone(especially not one of that price). So I didn't worry about the issue when posting it. Besides, they would find out soon enough anyway if they checked it out.-Arizona Hot (June 19, 2017, 03:58 PM)
The reason I use spaces is for exactly this reason. Consistency in code, as you can set the tab to be anything, and get unusual alignment when using tabs.-wraith808 (June 18, 2017, 07:37 PM)
I'm not sure I follow you. How does using spaces give more choice to each individual? And how does it provide any more consistency in code than tabs do?-Deozaan (June 19, 2017, 12:40 AM)
Some VCS' don't do so well with tabs in my experience.-wraith808 (June 18, 2017, 10:28 PM)
Consistency with indentation, no matter in which IDE/editor you open your code in, is really helpful, especially in multi-programmer projects. A tab can be set to whatever default, depending on user preference and software to edit code with. And it is easy to add an accidental tab that won't show up in one piece of software and disrupts indentation in another.
Spaces do not cause such problems in any editor/IDE in whatever (regional) language. And using spaces hardly takes up that much extra storage on disk. My anecdotal experience is that using spaces works better/consistently within whatever versioning system I have tried over time. But that can be just me.-Shades (June 18, 2017, 08:54 PM)
I was taught to use spaces, and had done so for years. But then a couple of years ago I actually thought about it instead of just dogmatically accepting what I was taught and I came to the conclusion that tabs are better because they give more choice to each individual.-Deozaan (June 18, 2017, 03:38 PM)
