Generally speaking, I don't buy expensive things on a whim; however, at least a few days of planning and thought are typically given. The ultimate question is typically, "do I meaningfully benefit long-term from this product, considering its price?"
I spend a bit of time thinking, "Will I be making good use of this product several months, a year from now? Do I benefit from this in the long run? If so, how? Are there potential long-term issues I should be concerned about?"
If I can't see a good long-term use case or benefit for the product that is proportionate to the cost, or if it creates potential long-term hassles, then I usually say no.
This is the case for Bifrons: high-end hardware is great, but it's fun to work out creative ways to squeeze the most out of limited hardware, saving money by taking advantage of the equipment I already have (like my portable SSD).
My equivilent, thia was basically "I need a cool running, cheap thing I can use on the train"
At this point, I use it less (Athena MKIII covers a lot of the same portable use cases) though, covered with stickers as it is, its turned more into an art piece ;p
Did some further investigation and considering the fact the first time I've noticed, Office Click to Run was active, I have the suspicion that this is indeed the issue also described here on Reddit:

@djsmiley2k Win10 is bound to the CPU now, so swapping HDDs and reinstalling Windows won't hurt
OEM or retail? Because OEM is tied to the motherboard and retail can be transferred to a new machine
As for the digital entitlement is linked to, who knows, but that's only to make your life more ease of use reasons anyways. There is still an underline license key.
@JourneymanGeek Depends on the source license, but you can transfer, that type of Awindows 10 license, yes. You have to call, and explain, and then provide the eligible Windows license
@JourneymanGeek That's the only type VMware supports OS X without a hack
@JourneymanGeek nah, I know the app itself is easy, but I still don't have a good container system up... and spinning up a new KVM VM for it is annoying.
y'know, having been dead for 200 years or so by then
You do not know the absolute minimum that every developer must know about character encoding. Fortunately the founder of this site wrote you an article. Read it before you program again. joelonsoftware.com/2003/10/08/… — Eric Lippertyesterday
more that the site I read has many categories, and I'm manually watching more and more of them recently... there's no built-in way to watch multiple categories on one page

I actually used to use Thunderbird w/ RSS on that site. like 8 years ago.
Because it makes me uncomfortable. Because I don't particularly feel like having my posts used to boost someone else's twitter presence. Because, public though the transcript may be, most starred messages can be easily taken wrongly out of context.
But (and I might be totally making this up; it's been a couple months/years) they had a user-controlled method to remove any posts. Or maybe it was only certain posts got promoted.
@Nick If you're going to be spending time trying to prune the thing, you might as well manually post the ones you find interesting. If you actually intend to filter it, post-then-delete is a pretty poor implementation.
As per the title, I consider "Milk" to be the substance secreted by living being to sustain their young, whether they be human, cow, dog, etc...
Almonds do not produce milk to sustain their young, in fact they are simply crushed. This reminds me more of juice than milk. So why don't people call ...
> Baristas say almond milk is as easy to work with as cow's milk, but you have to get the coffee to the customer pretty quickly, as the solids precipitate rapidly (though you can stir them back in). Brother Baba Budan's Cale Sexton has said that due to its alkaline nature, ''It's less likely to curdle in the way that soy often does''.
East Asian soy milk and American soy milk taste very different, and not just because of added ingredients like sugar and emulsifiers.
Soy beans contain an enzyme called lipoxidase, which breaks down unsaturated fatty acids into shorter chain lipids. For American markets, manufacturers presoak t...
> It’s neither practical nor really possible to remove lactose from milk — not only would it be logistically difficult, it’s simply not necessary. Instead, manufacturers react the lactose chemically, altering its composition and converting it into molecules that your digestive system processes easily.
To react lactose, manufacturers add small amounts of the enzyme lactase to milk, explains OrganicMeadow.com, a producer of lactose-free milk. The lactase splits lactose into its constituent components, which are two sugars called glucose and galactose.
@DavidPostill enough not to give @Bob distress since he lacks the genes that some europeans and indians have to keep digesting milk products without drama
> If you’re lactose intolerant, you’re not allergic to milk — or even to lactose. Instead, explain Drs. Reginald Garrett and Charles Grisham in their book “Biochemistry,” you lack the digestive enzyme you need to break down lactose, or milk sugar. This means lactose passes undigested into your lower gastrointestinal tract, where you harbor native populations of bacteria.
The bacteria digest the lactose, producing gas as a byproduct, which leads to the painful cramping and bloating you feel when you consume milk.
@Bob If you watched Dexter's Laboratory, the show went downhill too like was the case with Tom & Jerry. I don't think Gendy Tartakovsy was producer anymore. The spoiled the show and turned it to childish cartoon. All the style, humor and illustration were gone.
