Might as well put them to good use, despite being retired. But I've encountered a strangeness every step of the way. It's as if some Yuku Tech is making constant random changes, trying to fix things or something. Things change on a regular basis. A month ago, Font modification quit working. No more italics or bold. Then I had trouble loading video. Then it started working automatically. Next was pictures. After that quotes became difficult. It just goes on and on.

It has something to do with a script that's running on this page. I can post immediately after I stop the script, but it doesn't take long for it to start again.

I love it whenever I get a chance to tell that piece of Internet trivia regarding Gates. The man has to be one of the greediest things that ever lived. The sole reason he has a foundation is undoubtedly for tax purposes, and he uses most of those donations to further entrench Microsoft products anyway.
But that's your issue. Internet Explorer is a joke because it's incompatible with a lot of things by design. They have added patches over the years so that most of those things can run, but you seem to constantly encounter them anyway. A small price to pay in order to not have to pay Microsoft rate fees for using the Internet eh?

Some people would consider the idea of using Internet Explorer for a whole month to be some sort of ancient torture device. They imagine themselves strapped to a chair in a dark dungeon with an old Windows PC on the desk in front of them. The only app available on the desktop is Internet Explorer, and you are forced to use it against your own will. That nightmare is very real for people who still think Internet Explorer is the old piece of garbage it used to be. The truth is Microsoft has done a lot in the last few versions of IE to make it a respectable browser. The problem is not many people are willing to actually give it a chance. Chrome and Firefox have roped users into their ecosystems and it’s hard for anyone to leave. Especially for something with the reputation as IE. During the month of February I strapped myself to that chair in the dark dungeon and forced myself to use only Internet Explorer and Bing. During my time I learned a lot about how to make it work for me, and how Microsoft’s approach to IE is so different from other browsers. Let’s get started.
