Nope. I just tend to notice grammar/spelling errors, or tone things down when I may come off too aggressive, or sometimes remember something that I forgot I wanted to add while typing...or even spot that the comment I was replying to was itself edited.

So I go back and fix/add as I view necessary. :)

Also if you were dealing with intermittent aphasia due to actual scarring on the brain (been that way since early childhood) you'd probably want to fix things up when you notice some of it comes off not making as much sense as it should. ;)

What you do with your posts is what I do all the time. That's not a bad thing, in fact I think it's a good thing! :)

I know that I am a bit of a "Grammar Nazi"! When it comes to members who I know are English speaking and that they do not know the difference between words like, your and you're! It drives me "round the twist" when I see this and it takes a massive effort not to react to it! :D I fail often so please forgive me.

Yeah, I'll admit to being a big post-editing-ninja myself. Despite proofreading before posting, I always see a mistake or think of something new that simply must be added about 2 seconds AFTER I see it actually showing up on the site.

Indeed. A lot of times I'm also posting from my phone...and so autocorrect and other such errors creep in as well...so I'm like FML and will either fix it on the phone, or will hop on the PC since it's easier to edit there as well.

I've learned not to worry as much about the grammar of others...but still care enough about my own to usually fix it.

Hey guys, it's true, we forgot a category.

Might as well add it in. I have been called both here. So why not? No hard feelings over it either. Conversations here can get heated, but we are all just a big family and families fight and argue.

Thanks for not taking it the wrong way. Seems you cant get lighthearted or just rowdy without hurting feelings here anymore *cough*trag3dy*cough*

HUGS EVERYONE! :D

Can I hug just the girls?

My religion forbids me to hug men.

Sanctified, I'll have you drawn and quartered for that statement! :p I'll also just take the hugs from the women here also. Can't have people thinking I've surpassed my bigotry. :p

Thank you for this award.

This is such a great honor.

I would first like to thank god, because without him none of this would be possible.

I would also like to thank my parents for bringing me intro this world.

Finally I would like to thank Neowin for putting up with my years of bad jobs. Once again, thank you!

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
