Nice. Wish I knew what the stenciled text meant.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Earlier today I was trying to find an old article that dealt with bitmaps in C, so to try to find it I entered the search term:
tag:c++ bitmap
and got a bunch of articles about bitmap manipulation, but they also included articles on java, c#, vb and ole, among others where the tag c++ wasn't in the list of tags displayed. Seemed incorrect to me, so I tried a simple test. I restricted the search categories to "Articles" in the categories checkbox list on the left side of the page and then:
Entering the term:
search
in the search dialog returned 2379 hits while entering the term:
search tag
returned 5685 hits and the term:
search AND tag
returned 312 hits.
The popup dialog that appears when you hover over the search dialog says that the default search term operator is AND but the results above says that the default operator is OR, don't you think?

This probably isn't the right place to ask this.
Try here: Sugs'n'Bugs Forum[^] - the admins read everything there, and they are very approachable and helpful.

I always find the CP search unsatisfactory.

I tend to use google to search the codeproject site instead, like this:
Whatever I want to find site:codeproject.com
But I could never get the search to work for the discussion section.

Perhaps it means "include all the results from the first term" AND "all the results from the second term" ...so you get everything added together.
English is a funny language.
In fact, going further, you could say "include all the results from the first term" OR "all the results from the second term" ...but not both sets.
Boolean logic and the English language are occasionally at odds with each other!

Just use google. You can narrow your searches to a particular site...

I thought you were posting a "let me google that for you." I am now deeply upset that you didn't do that.

Ha. I actually thought about it, so that's gotta count for something.

If I'm searching codeproject I always find google is better. just use the codeproject only option.

the query you wanted was
tag:(c++ AND bitmap)

I enjoy the Windows ecosystem.
I've the laptop, the phone, and I'll eventually own a Surface 4.
I only recently stepped into this decade by getting a subscription to Netflix and Amazon Prime. I've done next to nothing with buying digital copies of movies and music but it is an area I want to explore because I'll be doing quite a bit of traveling and the ability to pull up a favorite movie on any one of a number of devices is fantastic.
So the question is: What store should I step into and why?
I know iTunes is the dominate force right now but I'm intrigued by Microsoft's Groove product. I'm already in Amazon's world but I've only spent about $50.00. I'd like to make a good choice before spending several hundred dollars.
Thoughts?

iTunes is malware. I don't use anything from that company.
I use Amazon a bit for buying music. I can easily download an MP3 to my PC and copy it to my Android devices via USB very easily.

Then you're safe... From what I hear, iTunes is so slow and unstable that it can't possibly have any useful effects.

I had to follow the link - mainly because I assumed that was attributed to our @Pete-OHanlon rather than some older guy.

There are many websites offering mp3 format downloads for much cheaper than iTunes. The one I use charges around 10 cents (US) per track on average. I generally download entire albums instead of single tracks so a typical album costs me only $1.20 or so. Edit: Just checked and the prices went up to between $2-$3 per album and 40 cents for a normal length track.

Since you asked, I use this one. [^] Edit: I haven't used it in couple of years, and it seems they have gone up on their prices...between $2.00 and $3.00 (US) per album. or around 40 cents for a normal length track.

I only use Amazon Prime for music purchases. I do not use iTunes. I use Amazon Prime and Netflix for movies. This setup meets all my needs.
