I have two queries:
# can I save sort in a tab - in particular, I'd like saved clips in the "Sticky" tab to show Alphabetically and Ascending (it defaults to by date and descending on restart)-tomos (February 17, 2015, 07:39 AM)
# can I modify the copy key? e.g. Ctrl+Shift+C? (background: I'm only using EthervaneEcho for one project) - I did look in Settings but might have missed something...-tomos (February 17, 2015, 07:39 AM)

Thank you for your site. I have been visiting silently for some time but have not participated until now. I am a student studying to be an engineer in an American university. My command of English is ok but not colloquial since it is not my native language. I will do my best to make myself understandable.welcome to dc vortext-vortext (February 17, 2015, 09:49 PM)

So this is the background of my hyper-sensitiveness when it comes to people saying - perhaps even inadvertently - a thread of mine is "OT", i.e. should not even have been published to begin with. (Cf. funny cat pics in a programmers' and sw users' forum - you know I accepted these being OT.) Perhaps even they did NOT say it, but it was just me that READ that INTO it:
As for the "OT", please read again, above:
"^ I was going to say quite off-topic *and* well worth a new thread, but the thread seems to be already fairly off-topic
+1, combined with the rewritten title and small-essay size post made me TL;DR; (again) huh"
As implied above, I'm beyond any acceptance of such "+1" when it comes to requests to silence me or sayings that I should not have mentioned some subject (length criticism being another story). But tomos is a non-native speaker, as I am, and it all was a language problem (again, with the above, totally unbearable outliner forum background and non-knowing who are those "doubly-writers" there and here):
In correct English, it should very probably have read, "but the thread seems to have gone [and not: to be] already fairly off-topic" - the "already" should have told me better, but in light of the above, I overlooked that in spite of re-reading it thrice - I'm verry sorry ; obviously, from my outliner forum experience and from some people furtively writing there and here, I now see "enemies" where there are none.-peter.s (February 16, 2015, 04:21 PM)

I've tried the latest Win 10 preview a bit in Virtualbox. Like it! I can so far only see improvements compared to 8.1. Like before we can opt out of logging in with a Microsoft account at install. 10 feels like the heir to Win7 Microsoft should have made in the first place.-Nod5 (February 13, 2015, 03:19 AM)

[Name], did you know today is Safer Internet Day?
More than 100 countries around the globe are taking part in this daylong effort to raise awareness for smarter and safer Internet use.
We've talked a lot over the last year about the need for surveillance reform to ensure your stuff online gets the same protection as your stuff offline. But legal reform is just one piece of the puzzle — there are also things big and small that you can do to protect your security online.
So here are three things you can do to make your use of the Internet safer.
Protect your Google account. A strong password is only the beginning. Log in to your account now and update your security settings for better protection — it only takes a few minutes. [LINK] (For your security, you'll be asked for your password.)
Explore these 12 safety tips. There are lots of ways to keep your stuff safe online — at home, at work, or on the go. From stronger passwords to Safety Mode on YouTube, we've detailed 12 tips for you right here. [LINK] Explore them all and see what makes sense for you.
Share the tips with your family and friends. The more people know about how to protect their stuff, the more secure the Internet will be for all of us. Celebrate Safer Internet Day by sharing these tips with people you know, [LINK] and encourage them to do their part to stay safe online.

In case you are wondering, the formula to calculate the new height of an image based on the existing aspect ratio is height / width * new width.hmm, I dont understand what they say at the end of the ghacks article ^
| Width: 3,000 [A] Height: 1993 |
So I can't really see where it's off-topic to raise questions about people's behaviors, or their unsupported assertions and arguments, as they relate to the larger issue. Nor do I see where doing so should automatically point the discussion towards the basement.-40hz (February 09, 2015, 04:44 PM)
3) I suggest starting a thread (in the basement would be a good bet) to discuss, but FWIW I really dont think it's worth persuing...-tomos (February 09, 2015, 12:39 PM)
In the wake of of a comment like that I hardly feel like discussing this much more either. Later!-40hz (February 09, 2015, 12:50 PM)
Tomos hits exactly what we should be concerned about:(FWIW I'm broadly pro-vaccine myself, but dubious about the methods used to force it on the populace, and dubious about relations between the FDA and the corporations developing the vaccines.)-tomos (February 05, 2015, 02:13 PM)
But, those issues are about 1) forced medication, and 2) corruption, which while a degree in philosophy or law is certainly an advantage in discussing them, there's enough wiggle room for input from others.
However, that's off topic.-Renegade (February 05, 2015, 06:49 PM)
