There’s this message in the standard edit control,
EM_GetSelor for the RichEd,EM_EXGETSEL. Is there only a decl forGetSel()and no def?
Sounds good about the manifest, use mt.exe, or to “save” on extra files there’s also#pragma comment(linker,"\"/manifestdependency ...which would go nicely in one of the main headers e.g stdafx.h. Using the Windows common controls will restrict the compilation to running just Windows of course.Now the chipmunks are running the show, Bugs would have surely considered the issuance of a license for free use of the expression “What’s up Doc” in exchange for a lifetime supply of carrots. A juicy topic, along with the goofy dog-in-the-moon raining down moonrocks, calling for another cartoon that was never made. 😛
A recent subject matter ripe for more cartoonery is the actions of the Microsoft Q&A autobot, a wild untamed behemoth running rampant through all Q&A forums not bothered at all by any number of us wee defenceless chipmunk subscribers. 🙁The legs on the old worm farm packed in, so replaced the farm with a newer version. A messy business at best. 😛
Great! 🙂
It’s Java based, and AndalayBay released a conversion to Morrowind back in 2014, converting it to C# using WPF with MVVM. She may still have the project files somewhere. The old Bethsoft release threads for Tes4Gecko and the conversion can be viewed in this edited html set.
To edit the Tes4Gecko code in VS 2022/2026 we’ll probably want OpenJDK, there are extensions for VS Code as well. 🙂Oh, all the old Evil Touch episodes have been posted on Youtube. Nothing too special though, and the poor resolution is another minus. They did make fun late night viewing back in the day, this one with Leslie Nielson was a favourite:
And, as Anthony Quayle used to say, “Pleasant Dreams.” 😛Yes – like this one, “To Pan”, from “Hesiod, the Homeric Hymns and Homerica, 1920”:
Only at evening, as he returns from the chase, he sounds his note, playing sweet and low on his pipes of reed: not even she could excel him in melody — that bird who in flower-laden spring pouring forth her lament utters honey-voiced song amid the leaves. At that hour the clear-voiced nymphs are with him and move with nimble feet, singing by some spring of dark water, while Echo wails about the mountain-top, and the god on this side or on that of the choirs, or at times sidling into the midst, plies it nimbly with his feet. On his back he wears a spotted lynx-pelt, and he delights in high-pitched songs in a soft meadow where crocuses and sweet-smelling hyacinths bloom at random in the grass.
There was another heatwave in Victoria, we were spared this time. After the last rain, there was a dry windy change, so after a few warm days had to soak the pots again! 🙁
Cool! The up and down keys got some movement in Doom, what gets the character in motion – the space/enter, or something else?
Jaffa the young Jack Russell, taken with the goat’s enthusiasm for carrots, has himself acquired the taste. Tonight he completely demolished a rather large and juicy carrot!Date A Live banned in China? Did they even get to see any of the trailers? This one is for Ren Dystopia:
They have all fallen prey to the Ken Burns effect! Series 6 will be the last? Funny, the following trailer for series 4 is not available in the US and Japan, China is okay though. 😛
Now streaming Sherlock & Daughter, an American production gone very Britsh with a top notch cast on a rather spiffing adventure line. Did notice some odd pronunciations such as zeenith for zentih, debew for debut and insulate for insolent. Recommended all the same!
A Matter of Life and Death (or Stairway to Heaven) is a jolly bit of good-hearted sci-fi fluff with extra zing in the production and direction. The highlight for me was the Sofaer’s recitation of Scott’s short poem here:
In The Silent Partner there’s an interesting twist on gaslighting post bank heist. More of historical interest now, as banks, as we knew them then, are becoming less and less. Recommended!
You’ll never see much light from the sun in The Doll Factory until (spoiler alert) the closing scenes. The music is dark and persistent, the episodes all playing to a rather gloomy horror motif. Despite the efforts from the cast, things fell away towards the end, expected an ending that could have plugged a few more holes contextually perhaps.The keyboard lights with OpenRGB is a known issue with XBOX MSC, so we can writhe alive to the tune of that. 🙂
Thanks! The Windows idea of the HID LampArray standard came early 2024 – must have either tried it either without success or missed it altogether. Good news it works with the G213 keyboard as well as with MSC, thus the ball is in the court of OpenRGB for further innovations. 🙂
Hibernation resume croaked once again – the H/W folks may know a trick or three. 😛That last link takes all of 30 seconds to load over here – it’s huge!
There’s MFC in there which adds extra layers. With stdafx it boils down to saving time and grunt with pre-compiled headers using either that or pch.h?
Yes, ensure the includes are working first, otherwise extend the sojourn in MWEdit no man’s land. 🙂A healthy looking database, as it seemed last night, today got a
504 Gateway Time-outfor both links. Makes sense for the search, not for the subject – home page is fine. 🙂
What’s faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound?
As well your favourite Kryptonian, also descriptive of an Australian bushfire. After 6 months drought, things did get rather hairy, especially just over the border in Victoria:

Right now, rain has come to the rescue! 🙂What was the intentions of the bracketed lvalue? The
Typepassed through doesn’t make much sense either, think he wanted something like make-unique, it came just a few years too late!
Sounds good. 🙂Skyscraper is an 21C. update on Towering Inferno, never a dull moment means there’s enough to keep one awake until the end is nigh!
FTA are offering all 8 seasons of Homeland, quit after the third, not bad, especially when unadulterated (with a dash of adulteration) spy soap is your thing.
There’s a really tense, well constructed build up to a fairly run-of-the-mill bog standard culmination of events in Playing Nice, other possibilities might have been in the pipeline for the creators, no doubt all the better ones demanding no less than considerable yakka.
The_Thomas_Crown Affair is exciting to watch, with side attractions and divagations a-plenty including this 1898 game featuring the Schliemann Defense to the Ruy Lopez opening.
Soundtrack includes The Windmills of Your Mind, not the Muppets version from the next decade if any were wondering:
It also had the following fine track:
Definitely getting a welcoming Linux vibe, the main drawback as a Microsoft Solitaire Collection junkie, how so for this little red rooster to go cold turkey?
Is there light at the end of the tunnel even after Microsoft Solitaire Turns Off Keyboard Lights, a new feature which could even be related to another thing.
A High Performance power plan has always been set in Process Lasso while Solitaire runs, else tournament time is incorrectly evaluated. Again, after the last MS update, the power plan will not reset to the previous plan as it did before. Pretty sure it’s not an issue with Process Lasso, but might post over there later given a positive response from MS to above.The border protection folks have done a pretty good job of keeping citrus greening out of the country, so don’t think it was the cause as there was no discolouration in the last fine crop of oranges. Can never be absolutely sure though. 🙁
Beauty berries are … beautiful, and our feral deer would certainly go party on them. Unusual as a deciduous subtropical – haven’t seen any in nearby nurseries to date.There is a will and intention one day of getting close and personal with Big Spotty, in the meantime the urgency is to attend the so-named “Old Grump” tereticornis down by the dam as he/she has not had the best from our current weather behaviours. Not even half the height of Spotty, closer to half the girth perhaps.
Acquired an attractive Lemon Sherbert Coleus (or Plectranthus) from North Queensland- it has a marvellous fragrance and taste.

Also eager to procure Cremnus, another aromatic and hairy plant.The brass “nozzle” sprayer on this garden hose gets very sticky to turn in adjusting for fine spray, tried various greasy/oily lubricants, even Tri-Flow with hardly any improvement in the twist. The connecting parts which are visible look clean, can’t speak for the other parts. Various denizens of GoogleLand say soak the thing in vinegar to clean before applying a silicone based lube, as it won’t wash away too quickly in the rain.
No doubt Linux would be better, provided it won’t get barfed by clumsy keyboard-fu this way. 😛
Ah, the fans are now managed entirely by Pop!_OS in the then Linux partition – perfect when there is no automatic bricking. Do get the picture now, my own particular folly is a penchant for skimming over poorly documented stuff:
There was also Turn On or Off Microsoft Vulnerable Driver Blocklist in Windows Security, regrettably no link in that article to another one entitledTurn Off Windows for Good. Might have been a more entertaining read? 😛Time has moved on, and even though the Ryzen still hasn’t got a sound card, it’s not off the list. 🙂
Windows has been pretty good overall, the major updates keep most of the user settings from the previous now, however there were some oddities introduced:Some of those issues in the OP are due to the Service Host (svchost.exe) chowing through the hosts file at Windows logon. It runs after hibernate resume as well, did post a query to MS for confirmation, both post and answer has since vanished. Ran it around to the Bitsum Gurus, no answer usually means, or implies insufficient information.
Well, this CPU figure of 8.38% looks more to be throttled by the restraint of I/O operations (e.g. searching through RAM blocks and writing data back to RAM according to types and encoding etc.) than just plain cpu cycles. The issue is, the CPU is supposed to be going flat chat in a critical thread, yet you could play Skyrim or such (offline) concurrently, where game performance isn’t optimal, but fine nonetheless. It’s all down to the CPU architecture and grade of DDR RAM, and the Windows handling of them, an intricate and complex rabbit hole indeedy deed!
Did you ever receive any feedback from Microsoft regarding the fans on the s76? It’s common knowledge that Windows performs many BIOS updates silently, which could mean certain settings get overwritten unfortunately. 🙁Sigh, same issue again as in the OP, so responded to the thread again.
Also, Thermaltake pulled Outervision’s Supply Calculator licence, thus we’re off to a new Wizard with ScareGPU, Tin RAM, and the Cowardly Drive in for an OEM recalc. 😛How did the choc fudge cake go?
😛 And a dalek’s eyestalk to hold the carafe! 😛
That’s a rollicking good old fashioned icing set, and oh, a picture is just what’s required to titillate the tastebuds for sure!Obtained a packet of donut peaches or Ondines, being a popular store brand over here. Not quite as tasty a regular peaches, a good grower for a harsher climate, so an Angel/donut peach tree is on the list for autumn.
If trying your hand in the making of sourdough bread, apparently a SCOBY culture is required. There’s a fair bit of preparation in this Hibiscus kombucha cake with SCOBY already in the kombucha. Just ensure the flowers aren’t from either Hibiscus rosa-sinensis or Rose of Sharon. 😛
It’s awful when things leak. Up here over winter, knock up much of the chicken and fish preparations in covered casserole dishes to go in the stove. No matter what, there is leakage during the cooking which ensures a hard carbonised crust on the dish for a big clean up later. Have never found one which doesn’t. Foil and the like might reduce it some, more waste going in the skip though.
Also looking for a roasting dish for our handy little oven, the stores here mostly focus on plugin ones, some of which look quite nice. They all possess the plastic electrical contacts and whatnot that would unfortunately make a very nasty mess in the oven if we are not careful.
Haven’t scoured the Nordic range yet, will soon. 🙂Wow, the ellipsograph describes a beautiful geometric move however, and there was a couplet from Ovid that begged inclusion!
As a matter of interest regarding St. Francis and the following extract from this article:On 24 December 1223, he organised a midnight mass that included a re-enactment of the event, with villagers playing the parts of Mary and Joseph and a rag doll as baby Jesus. St Francis even brought along an ox and a donkey to complete the image of Jesus being born in a barn. The aim was to educate and inspire the villagers of Greccio about the celebration of Christmas – not just as a historical event, but as something real they could imagine and believe in.
There’s some debate as to the actual circumstance of birth, many think it was a house, most likely a well tenanted one.
Went ahead and purchased two of these Elevated Trampoline Hammock Beds – the young dog is sure to appreciate the Oxford fabric, the old dog, well, he may not like the idea of having to climb into one. 😛Hallelujah, got something working re counter with a modified
.htaccessfile in OldSite and a php script that writes a hit to a file each time the page is accessed. For a better breakdown of bot visitors, see Simple visitor counter, not sure if his code handles blockers though.
No matter, all that’s required now is for some PHP to read a file and display it into a meter box in the html somewhere. Easy enough? -
