1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

A recent news item described a 75-year old as "an elderly lady". Two years younger than me.

I didn't know it, so I share it just in case.
Ctrl+Shift+T
It opens the last closed browser tab again. Or the active tab, when you closed the whole browser at once.
Nothing that you couldn't make using the browser history, but it saves time, specially when you close the wrong tab.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Upon closing the Chrome browser itself (with many tabs open), and then opening it and typing Ctrl + Shift + T, it opens all those tabs simultaneously.

Energy = Milk x Coffee²
E = MC²
And on that subject, I just found out Einstein was a real person.
I always thought he was a theoretical physicist.
I'll get my coat and disappear into a wormhole.

MILK? IN COFFEE?

Maybe he's talking about real coffee and not the Americano.
An espresso macchiato is the just heavenly.

My usual size is triplo, only restaurants serve the usual single shot. Good bars will give between doppio and triplo.

Interestingly enough, I have started adding cream to my English tea, after years of having it black, but still drink my coffee black after all these years.
Coffee should never be contaminated, ever. Which I am sure, some would say that tea should never be contaminated as well. Hmm. Interesting.

Why do some "highly qualified" technical savvy contributors still spending their precious voluntary time here telling people that using CAPITALS is considered shouting?
Is it not what "volume knob" is for?

Because it's a polite way of saying "You are a rude arrogant t***; your question is no more important than anyone else's".
Most of 'em know damn well what they are doing, they just want their question to get priority. But so does everyone else, so it escalates and you get "bump wars" where all questions get bumped immediately they drop off the top of the list ... A polite reminder of netiquette forestalls that.

The bumps were the reason my "official" birthday at school was April 31st.
Worked for years ... bullies aren't generally that clever.

Making a trivial change to push a message to the top of the "latest items" queue.

Because it is, and there really is no need for it. We are all quite capable of reading normal font, normasl case text. It is similar to people telling us what we must, or must not, do when answering their question (naming no names).
