Who on here programs?
And_Ray replied to Katty's topic in Computers, Tablets, Mobile Devices, & Apps
It's so interesting that everyone so far stated that you've been doing programming back in the days, and you've given up on it. I cannot imagine how was it to be a computer programmer back then... No windows OS, assembler code, few KB's of RAM, no IDE, no intellisense (code-completion), no code linters (code analyzers that spot errors).. it's no wonder that all of you gave up programming... The job industry is so much different today. Currently I work full-time as a full-stack web developer working on enterprise level web applications. It's a demanding and challenging job, but it's nowhere as it was few decades ago. Being part of the millennial generation ( i'm born some time before that, but still ), I got a jump-start to using computers. From early days i had a computer at home and i would do all sort of thing to it. Reinstalling Windows XP was among the first accomplishments Every now and then i would watch videos about programming.. i would occasionally start to read some book for C++, Visual Basic etc... i would do some calculator program and then give up. I would read different computer blogs about what-not. That way i laid the foundation that would later serve me when i would dive deep into web programming. I attended few Microsoft courses after high school instead of going to University and shortly after that i got an internship in a company, that would later offer me a job and I'm still there... -

There are pretty advanced search options on google, it's just that very few people are aware of them, even less people use them. With a quick google search about google search techniques this blog came up. https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/google-advanced-search-tips It's quite useful. Many times i use it to search images that are on our website, because all of the images have a "hidden" text description which is picked up by google search. -
Best Photo Image Viewer for Windows 10
And_Ray replied to Dismal_Bliss's topic in Computers, Tablets, Mobile Devices, & Apps
I always tried to find some photo viewing program that will suit my taste... but i never found it. With win10 I cant stand the new photos program. But i really like the win7 default photo viewer. There's a way to restore it and use it on win10. Also, VLC is de facto the best app for any media playback, be it audio or video. -

And_Ray replied to Hammerhead's topic in Computers, Tablets, Mobile Devices, & Apps
There's a tool made for this purpose made by a brother. I've managed to merge 3 backups into one. Search for JWLMerge and you'll find a link pointing to Github page. That's the thing you're looking for. Sent from my WAS-LX1 using Tapatalk -

JW Broadcasting for February 2018
And_Ray replied to Tortuga's topic in Interchange of Encouragement & Worldwide Brotherhood
They are definitely familiar with the talk, since it's the host who is making up the talk. They have the freedom to choose a topic that they like, and then the video department will make sure to find and put together material that is bases on the talk.. But yeah, the brother giving the talk is very much familiar with the talk, since its him who put it together. Sent from my WAS-LX1 using Tapatalk -

Although we want to think only the best of our brother, they are 100% using teleprompter. It's been caught on camera on few of broadcasts. I can't remember without searching first, but I think there was a video where brother Stephen Lett was explaining about the translations of the monthly broadcast, and there you can see the teleprompter on camera. I'll let you know when I find it. Sent from my WAS-LX1 using Tapatalk -
Best Antivirus for Android Tablet
And_Ray replied to amwambinga's topic in General Discussion & Everyday Chit Chat
Well... Want to know the truth? Personally I don't have an antivuris. I do use Malwarebytes on my PC tho. Do i feel that you need antivirus on a PC? Nope, you don't need it. Although It's a good measure of precaution for the average computer user. Easily attractive to viruses? NO! You don't attract viruses. You either let them in, or shut the door in their face. There are handful of ways on which you can let a virus in your computer. even less on an android device. Email attachment, phishing email, malicious websites, untrusted programs, advertisement on a website or in app etc... So as long as you don't CLICK on any unknown or phishing link, and don't install untrusted programs (e.g. exe files for PC, apk for Android), you're safe. oh and btw, you don't accidentally download and install malicious program. There are just too much steps involved to be accidental. It takes a bit of common sense and little knowledge of the ways you can get infected, and you're good to go. -
Updates to JW Library (iOS, Android, Windows)
And_Ray replied to bohemian's topic in Computers, Tablets, Mobile Devices, & Apps
The developer of the program replied to my issue and fixed the problem. After that I was able to merge two files. I didn't really try to use it afterwards. I'll try tonight. What I found out is that you cannot merge the newly created file with another backup file. Thats what I ultimately want, since I had 4 devices at one point, and I was hoping to merge them all. I'll report that issue as well and see what's comes out of it. Sent from my WAS-LX1 using Tapatalk -

And_Ray replied to amwambinga's topic in General Discussion & Everyday Chit Chat
You don't need any. All those programs reporting that you have hundreds of malicious programs on your phone are malicious themselves. As long as you don't install suspicious apk files, you definitely don't need an antivirus on your android device. If you don't know what's an apk, it's all the more reasons why you don't need an antivirus since you're protected by default. Sent from my WAS-LX1 using Tapatalk -

I tried to use to utility today, and encountered an error. Already have submitted the issue to the developer. It would be great to hear how did other go. Although i don't expect much comments since only few would know how to use it in the first place -
Going to Venice and Rome
And_Ray replied to Gregexplore's topic in General Discussion & Everyday Chit Chat
If you're passing Macedonia when going from Montenegro to Greece(or the other way around), you must make a stop so we can meet and drink coffee/beer. I'll leave the choice up to you !
