God, Powerpoint 95 is a look. How many buttons can you fit on a 640x480 screen? At least this many!

five toolbars. count 'em. I did. and got it wrong the first time, because I missed that there's one embedded in the status bar

the fact I can turn on a toolbar that just lets me jump to other Office Software is the most "Someone got a promotion for that" feature I've seen in a while

good point, why DON'T I have FoxPro installed? I am often asking myself this!

if you ask it to help you create a table, one of the suggested databases is one to track your film, you know for photographers? like what date you had that roll developed...
That's some 1996-ass functionality right there.

for some reason Fox Pro comes with Imagedit, a pixel image editor that can edit BMP, CUR, and ICO.

The FoxPro logo is definitely Arial, but it's tweaked a little bolder than Arial Heavy, and the kerning has been manually tweaked, it looks like.
Microsoft liked to do this around 1995. They'd design something with their standard fonts, but then have some graphical designers tweak how it looked. Like the "It's now safe to shutdown your computer" screen: they tweaked several letters in that.

I overlaid some Ariel on it and tried to match it. Aside from the boldness issue, you can see the kerning is different on "Fo" and they redrew the V

this is a little annoying if you're invested in mimicing Microsoft typography from 1995.
That may seem an obscure thing to be concerned with but it seems to come up for me all the time.

@gdayitsjack @daedalus @ancoghlan hii sorry for the late reply! Besides being genuinely curious about the Australian foss community, I'm also curious about possible OSS job opportunities now or in the future. It's my third winter in Australia and everytime I come here I love it.

"I genitori sono responsabili di tutto ciò che accade sul cellulare dei loro figli."
I bambini crescono in un ambiente digitale che spesso li sopraffà e li mette in pericolo, afferma l'educatore digitale Julian Bühler. Tuttavia, leggi e divieti più severi non risolveranno da soli il problema. Una discussione sulle chat in classe, sulla verifica dell'età online e su cosa può davvero aiutare

I'll probably keep the comic uncolored for now. It's easier and faster. The most important parts are colored (Mitsuru's blue hair and Shakura's red head veins) and I think it gives the comic a certain kind of charm. But I have to admit that I miss the blood stains on Mitsuru's hoodie.

Building And Testing A Turbine Driven Hydro Generator
The theory behind hydropower is very simple: water obeys gravity and imparts the gained kinetic energy onto a turbine, which subsequently drives a generator. The devil here is, of course, in all the details, as [FarmCraft101] on YouTube is in the process of finding out as he adds a small hydro plant to his farm dam. After previously doing all the digging and laying of pipe, in this installment, the goal is to build and test the turbine and generator section so that it can be installed.
The turbine section is 3D-printed and slides onto the metal shaft, which then protrudes from the back where it connects to a 230VAC, three-phase generator. This keeps it quite modular and easy to maintain, which, as it turns out, is a very good idea. After a lot of time spent on the lathe, cutting metal, and tapping threads, the assembled bulk of the system is finally installed for its first test run.
After all that work, the good news is that the 3D-printed turbine seems to work fine and holds up, producing a solid 440 RPM. This put it over the predicted 300 RPM, but that’s where the good news ends. Although the generator produces 28 watts, it’s officially rated for 3 kW at 300 RPM. Obviously, with the small size of this AliExpress-special, the expectation was closer to 750 watts, so that required a bit of investigation. As it turns out, at 300 RPM it only produces 9 watts, so obviously the generator was a dud despite cashing out $230 for it.
Hopefully, all it takes to fix this is to order a new generator to get this hydropower setup up and running. Fortunately, it seems that he’ll be getting his money back from the dud generator, so hopefully in the next video we’ll see the system cranking out something closer to a kilowatt of power.

How odd.
Every day at least a dozen of accounts from Gaza, each one with a sad medical story, is asking to follow me.
I must reveal in my profile I'm the widow of a general, living in Lagos, Nigeria.
