I used to wonder how Darth Vader ate with that mask on – then I realised: he was Force fed.

And his son used the Force to heat his coffee, but could only get it Luke warm,

I'm sure you feel Lukey to have finally Leiad this issue to rest, but I didn't find it all that thought Ewoking.

He eats light but saber-y meals but it's a difficult jabba with that mask on.

I just downloaded the 2022 preview of Visual Studio and noticed it installed in the Program Files folder, not the Program Files (x86) folder like all earlier versions. So this must be the first native 64 bit version of VS. Nice! What took you so long MS?

Pfft... based on the sloppy QA done of Visual Studio these days, I bet it's only 63 bit!

That would actually be more impressive.

Until you realise the bit you are missing is the one bit you actually used to use all the time.

Only the kids'd need it anyway. Back in me Dad's day, they just had zeros and the power switch.

'native'?
Visual Studio 6 was native.

OK, Visual C++ 6.0, you nitpick!

Cadbury has somewhat recently changed their ads.
It used to be said that there was a glass and a half in every one. Now, they say that there's a glass and a half in everyone. Not written mind you, but in the way it's said.
I noticed and reckoned I knew what their angle was. Dad noticed too - but climbed up the mountain from a different angle and thought they'd made a mistake. :oops: :haha: When he called em to point it out, she explained that the saying was no longer referring to the blocks of chocolate, but were instead now talking about the consumers.. (because they've shrunk the blocks so much that there is in fact, not that much milk in em)
Your comment reminded me of this, with the placement of a comma.
Native, 64 bit

Native 64 bit
Thanks for the fun.

Several years ago, I worked on a project where a few modules had to be built/maintained in Visual C++ 6.0. Always blew me away how fast it was.
|
|
|
|
|
It was blazing fast, indeed.
Chrome is fast. Visual Studio is slow. Eclipse is still starting.

Viewing response to your post it seems the Natives are restless.

Installed it, loaded up our (mostly) c++/mfc solution, hit f5, many long minutes later, no errors, no warnings...
So, well done MS and VS.

But I have to be patient: There is no current version of the Prism installer that will work with VS2022. Brian Lagunas just confirmed that they will not bring out Prism for a preview product. I will have to wait for the final version before I can do my MVVM / Prism projects. 
Hopefully it will not be too long.

That doesn't necessarily guarantee that it's a 64-bit app. I've seen installers that forced their apps into C:\Program Files even though they were 32-bit, largely because they had hard-coded folders in the application.

I don't think Microsoft would do that? Would they?
