That is all very true, but I was talking about the use of character constants:
TCHAR* psomething = TEXT("some text");
WCHAR* psomethingElse = L"sometext";
as opposed to
char text = "some text";
and even wstring is the same, and try using wcout to print some Unicode characters.

Agreed...took me a while to get used to it, but once you've settled into the pattern, it became second nature to me. But making the transition was painful.
My surprise was that this isn't what newcomers are getting exposed to from the get-go in this day and age, so they don't have to "unlearn everything they thought they already knew about string manipulation".

I know the vid without even watching it, they are funny as f***!
Watch the rest, they will have you in stitches!

I must definitely be in the minority here as I did not find this one bit funny. Not even mildly amusing. Don't try to explain it to me though, as I do understand it. But don't find it funny. At all.
Just so you know I'm not a dry, emotionless maniac. I do find people like Patrice O'Neal, George Carlin, Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, etc. to name a few, to be absolutely hilarious.
If someone had me in stitches, and did it consistently, that would be Carlin. Here's an example: George Carlin - Stupid Bullshit - YouTube[^] (COARSE language warning)

I agree. Comical, but not hilarious.

Hi,
I know the love for IE replacement is a little low in the Lounge, but I have been bitten by it, the local admin for my area of the network lets us down load & use Acrobat reader. However the seniors where I had to do a presentation gave a PC with Edge only. I need to show page 5 of a lengthy PDF, I could show 1 & 2, 2 repeated for each page of the 180 pages. Opening a PDF, playing videos, web surfing, washing up what can Edge do?

Everything else past page 2 got spilled off the edge. Flat Earth confirmed. Illuminati confirmed.

From what I've seen, not a lot. It loves adverts though.

Did you know how Edge got its name?
Microsoft developed a new browser, but the testers got rather edgy using it, hence the name Edge.
It was either that or "@RH*RF"H@F"#H!#$*^@"*"!^"!! " but that didn't work well with the marketing department.
True story.

Got my old MIG welder out, had to get new gas (and with the CO2 shortage, chuckle chuckle, that was difficult, so ended up with Argon and an new regulator) and some new tips.
Havent used it in 20 years, so stripped out the surface corroded wire, fired it up, and it still works perfectly, which is a surprise, since it has been in a damp basement all that time.
And they are a dream to use!

How is it supposed to float down the road?

Floods. The hot weather can't last, and when it does end, the roads will automatically flood to make up for it.
