  • Actually, I think that one at least has some history to it.

    The disk drive was one of the first ways to store information between computer sessions as the first computers didn’t have built in storage. You would create a program, run it, and then when you shut the computer off it was gone. Since the disk drive was used to store programs for later, or “save” them, the icon was born from the physical object.

    Sharing, conversely, doesn’t really have a real world example to base the icon on. Maybe two hands exchanging things? Perhaps two arrows to illustrate the ability for things to go both ways? Maybe a set of interconnected dots to show the connection between things? Any of them could work, so the iconography is less clear.


  • I’ve seen a lot of rulers that actually don’t have a mark at 0 and instead go right to the edge as 0. Typically they are worn down, being made of wood, so the accuracy of the first inch is dubious. To ensure the distance is correct, sliding the ruler down one unit is a good idea. So, my ruler starts at 0 but my measurements start at 1.






  • I disagree.

    • XP felt like it was mine.
    • 7 felt like it was mine
    • 8 felt like they were trying to force something on me.
    • 10 felt like they were pushing bloatware like a cell phone. At least l could remove some of that?
    • 11 feels like they decided it’s their computer, I’m just renting time in it by watching ads. You could remove half the programs by default and I would not miss any of them. Do I need a version of minesweeper with micro transactions? No!



  • Frodo’s necklace isn’t invisible; therefore, we can assume that it does not work unless worn on a body part specifically, as he is wearing it while it is on the necklace but he is not invisible.

    The real question is what body parts would work. Fingers obviously do, but would toes? Cockring? Nose piercing? Could you say that the ring being in his butt counts as wearing it? If someone can go outside wearing nothing but a buttplug, then there is some president.

    Can only buttplugs be worn, or can anything be worn in the butt? Is a ring a buttplug? Cash or credit?
