Accommodation
You stay there, and also means to agree with, i.e. to accommodate.

Yep - you are up tomorrow 
This clue was actually my wife's first attempt at a CCC - verdict ?

Well I got it right, so I personally like it!
It also fits all the classic trademarks of a good clue so yeah I would say it's a nice first clue. Although the usual suspects must be in meetings this morning as I am surprised it wasn't answered quicker.
Will your wife also be participating in answering too then?

Thanks for that I'm sure she will be pleased to hear that - as for solving them she would have to open an account here and she is not a techie so I doubt it, also she could then see what I post on here :=)

Scott hits the nail on the head: Where did you get your PhD?[^]
Yeah, I've noticed that myself ...

Aahhh, we have the same experience of PHD's in the field.
|

So, you have a PHD?
Don't touch anything!
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

In my experience we can put most MBAs in the same category. 
|
|
|
|

MBAs take it to the next level by really being great thinkers. For example, they think they are professors for everything.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Sure, once you know everything about one thing, it's an small leap to knowing that you know everything about everything.

When you know everything about nothing, you are ready for management.

I once worked with one (definitely of the piled higher & deeper variety) and, for some reason, this guy wouldn't use any RTL functions. He had to write his own strcpy, strlen, memcpy, etc... functions for everything. He didn't last very long.

I've set chrome as my default browser. But any link I click on, from any windows Application, is getting opened in Edge browser. How do I override this behavior?
(Other than changing my OS to linux  )
|
|
|
|
|
Default browser isn't enough.
Open Settings, and select the Home page via the icon on the left.
Click on "Apps" - you should be on "Apps and features".
Scroll to the bottom of the page (you can hover the mouse over the scroll bar to do it quickly, or rotate the mouse scroll wheel for around a year - this is an UWP app, so it doesn't work very well)
UNder "Change app defaults", click "Open Default app settings".
Scroll down to the bottom, and click "Set defaults by app"
Scroll down interminably to "Microsoft Edge". Click it (I know, I know: that's a horrible thought - but it won't open the execrable app, honest).
Click "Manage" and you should be able to change the defaults.

It seems to be enough for writing a doctorate - you should do so!

I went to change my display name to JSOP, and it said it was taken. Can I sue over that?

Well, the history of tough men calling themselves Sue goes back to the 60s, doesn't it?
Oh, sorry. I misread.
