HowTo: make raw_input & input work the same in both Python 2 and 3
10 Ιουλίου 20 04:00 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Was just trying to make a Python 2 script work in Python 3 and at first it seemed I just needed a small change to add missing parentheses to the argument of a couple of print statements. But then another issue came up, it wasn’t understanding the command raw_input(somePrompt) that was occuring at various places […]

If you’re having issues with your Windows 7 or newer, you should consider whether its installation has become corrupted (due to malicious software or hard drive errors). After doing a disk check (say by right clicking the appropriate drive under my computer and selecting Properties, then Tools tab and Error checking) and a complete virus […]

14 Μαΐου 14 09:35 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Trovigo.com is an unwanted search engine hijacker that renders Internet Options of Windows / Internet Explorer inaccessible. To restore them on an older Windows XP installation, one way that I’ve found to work is to update Internet Explorer to a newer version, aka IE 8 (say via the embedded Windows Update facility or Microsoft Update […]

Can’t step-through Silverlight file dialogs with Visual Studio debugger
02 Δεκεμβρίου 12 08:58 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

While stepping through “ShowDialog()” method of OpenFileDialog with Visual Studio 2010 debugger, at the Silverlight code pictured below (for loading a ClipFlair window’s stored options), I got a “Dialogs must be user-initiated” exception. Same behaviour will be shown with SaveFileDialog too, every time you try to step through the “ShowDialog()” method. This is because of [...]

HowTo: Check MSDN Subscriber downloads for tampering via SHA-1 key
24 Οκτωβρίου 12 09:35 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Supposing you have an MSDN Subscription, you could download say SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition (x86 and x64) – DVD (English) from the following URL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/downloads/hh442898.aspx#FileId=48810 Suppose you do so and you keep that .ISO file (a CD/DVD image that you can burn to a disk using Windows 7 or Active@ ISO Burner tool, or [...]

HowTo: Remove Babylon search from Mozilla Firefox address bar
03 Αυγούστου 12 03:07 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Babylon Search is one of the most abusive addons for Mozilla Firefox and other web browsers. It installs with other free software (most probably profiting from tracking your searching habits) and then it is quite hard even for experienced users to completely uninstall it. While maintaining other computers in the past I’ve used a combination [...]
