I feel like I've been burned by the last few wi-fi upgrades, so I'm holding off on the ac upgrade. Am I missing out?

I've seen a dramatic jump in speeds - to the point where I can cut the cable.
(though if a few others start jumping on the router then...where's my cable gone...?)
cheers

As a Briton, I'm extremely thankful that Canada isn't the USA.
Best to all my (both real and non-familial) cousins over there.

I'm thankful that at the age of 95, my dad is healthy, happy and able to live independently and enjoy life every day.

So I created a new email address. I've been using the email name I created when I was 16 for ten years now.
Not only do people have problems with the spelling it's also not a very professional sounding email.
So I decided to create a new email address. Both old and new are gmail. So I want to copy my emails and contacts from my old account to my new account and be done with it.
Err! Unfortunately Google's support for these basic features is very sad!
I can copy all my email, but my labels aren't saved. So I just get an inbox with 1000's of emails while my old account had everything neatly organized. I fixed that by using a third party tool, Got Your Back.
Of course I can also copy all my contacts, but Google simply refuses to copy pictures with it! I've Googled around and it's a popular request to save contact pictures. Unfortunately Google hasn't implemented it. I'm still looking for a tool that can copy my contacts AND preserve their pictures...
I also use YouTube via Google. No way in hell I can keep my likes, favourites and subscriptions on my new account. Why the hell should that be a problem!?
Google, in case you're reading, you disappoint me.
Unfortunately there's no real alternative (maybe Outlook, but that just doesn't do it for me), so I'll just keep on using Google services...
It's an OO world.

And you really don't see the advantages of any of that?
When you move house, do you literally pick it up and move it somewhere else?

Not the house (GMail account), but everything that's inside it (emails, contacts), yes literally.

throw new NotSupportedException();

Whats the CodeProject logo about?
Thanksgiving - Canada

Quoting Wikipedia:
Thanksgiving Day (Jour de l'Action de grâce in Canadian French) is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year.
The quick red ProgramFOX jumps right over the Lazy<Dog>.

Oh, so as a Google Doodle, this website also celebrates the good days!
Nice one CodeProject, and kudos for your answer.
Thanks,

Here is something CM once said: "I was abducted by aliens and they told C++ is the way to go. These Earthly creatures went to C# and others. I am and will be accompanied by Bob, as I call him, the alien and we need to stay together. One day I thought of making my own website and cute little Bob wanted a piece of it. The logo is his share. In short, Earthly beings are smart."
There is a lot to this plot. But I need permission from hamster Lord.

I have a little Stihl with a 12 inch bar but from time to time a big job presents itself like cutting down to ground level a tree stump that's about 4 feet tall and 3 feet round. This stump is a conglomeration of multiple trunks that grew together.
I am a part time weekend "gardener" and from time I have these tasks. I went to price a Stihl with a 36inch bar and couldn't believe the price.
What size saw, bar and make do you use and for what types of tasks.

Best bet would be to rent one.

Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?

Thanks for reply,
The problem is, it's $80 bucks to rent one with a 20inch bar (can't rent one much bigger) and it is usually in questionable operational state when I rent it, and I have needed one several times.

Only options are rent, borrow, buy or steal.

Create your own is another option.
You can lead a developer to CodeProject, but you can't make them think.

The only reason I left that out are there are not to many people that know how to make on. I thought about it though! I worked with an Electrical Eng. a long time ago that took me to his Dad's basement workshop where he made combustion engines from scratch, I was amazed.

Personally, I find it easier just to use my replicator and create as many as I like.

I think the suggestion to make one was spot on, so contact Clarkson at Top Gear. I am sure they could lash one up using a V8 engine. They have already done a couple of things like this before:-
V8 food blender here[^]
V8 rocking chair here[^]

Rent the 20" if you can and get a little creative whichever saw you end up using. It's possible to cut through 3' of trunk with a smaller saw. You just have to do it in small wedges and account for the tree leaning into the cut the deeper you go. Don't even think of trying to cut the entire front wedge all at once.
On any one cut don't go deeper than half the width of the bar. This will help minimize the tree "grabbing" the bar and help you get the saw back out of the tree if it does.
I cut a couple of 3' trees with an 16" saw. It took me about and hour to do each one, not counting the problem I had on the first tree. I got the saw trapped hard and had to use a come-along between to the two trees to get the saw out.
The second one went much smoother.
