  Re: Win32 GUI woes
 
(...) No, but I know that it can be cured :) My NT4sp4 runs at 1200x1000 ONO both at work and home, and NT Explorer pops up as a tiny wee box, exactly as specified. Perhaps try running one only copy, make it the right size, close it. Open another (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Getting a bad impression?
 
(...) Hmm, let's see what happened to the other copy... OK, found it. The headers are kind of odd: From Mookie@execpc.com Sun Jun 13 21:55:14 1999 Received: from mailgw00.execpc.com (sendmail@mailgw00.execpc.com [169.207.1.78]) by lugnet.com (...)

  Win32 GUI woes
 
Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone knows any cure for the following teeth-gnashing features that Win NT 4.0 has: 1 - You open a new window, launch an app, etc. and it takes up an ungodly amount of real estate on the screen. Like 80% of the pixels (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Geometry problem
 
(...) [Spoiler space added] Hmm, haven't checked all figures, but the two triangles are not similar (same shape): the green triangle has a slope of 2/5, the red triangle is 3/8. So the two aggregate figures (which appear to be triangles, but are (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Normal to get e-mail 1 month after it was sent?
 
(...) If you're using Outlook or Outlook Express, right-click the message (maybe the subject line in the Messages list). Choose Properties. On the dialog that shows up, click Source. The gunk at the top is the SMTP headers. Steve (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: X-Face: usage?
 
(...) Yep, but I seem to be the only one. In addition to Tim Rueger, that is. Tim, your images reads out clearly in my end. Fredrik (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: X-Face: usage?

  X-Face: usage?
 
Hi, Does anyone else out there use the X-Face: header (either able to view it or post it)? I think I've got it working with my newsreader, but I just want to know if it was worth the effort. -Tim (25 years ago, 13-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: New URL for Ed Boxer sites
 
(...) [snip] (...) This counter stat tool is just too cool. 23% of 63 hits to my LEGO sites over the last day were referred from a LUGNET URL. 46% of the 37 hits to my Opera Review site were referred from the Taipei Symphony Orchestra site (I guess (...)

  Re: Normal to get e-mail 1 month after it was sent?
 
(...) It depends on your e-mail software. What are you using? In Netscape Messenger 4.5, for example, you can do View/Headers/All from the menu. If your running a unix e-mailer, you can also just save the message to a file and look at it with a text (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Serial Connection Distance
 
Tom McDonald wrote in message ... (...) You should be able to get 25m, depending on the cable and speed. At 9600 in a clean environment I've seen two 25m cables in series working, but that is IMO pushing it. 115k will probably only go 5m or so (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Serial Connection Distance

I was thinking it was only 5V. -Tom McD. when replying, note that anti-spamcake has never (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Podracers Guild?
 
(...) Mmmmm, why can't you access *most* Geocities sites? Is it a browser issue? Can't you use Netscape or IE or Mosaic or something recent? Is it a routing issue? Why some Geocities sites but not others? Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 11-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
