You can force C# to work like C++ with this code I also remembered that a workaround for a bug in C# involved some Emit coding, which makes it pretty useful to know.

I was diving through the native asm code for this trying to track down a weird bug.
I was calling a function off the wrong object (the object didn't have that function) and it created a stack overflow. Whoops.
But I did notice the emitted native code was pretty similar to the IL.

If I only could remember my Epic game password...

If they could only offer an option to recover passwords... oh, wait!

I'm upgrading my phone from Herself's Samsung Galaxy M32* to a new Samsung Galaxy A54 5G and initially it looked like it was all done very easily - everything transferred to the new phone smoothly and quickly.
Then I noticed that I was missing a load of Whatsapp messages, and try as I might I couldn't get them back on the new phone - though they appear on the old phone, and on my desktop and my Surface ...
Finally worked it out: Google does a weekly backup to Google drive and when you open Whatsapp on the new phone it uses the last backup, rather than the latest message set. Simple solution: switch back to old phone, uninstall Whatsapp on new phone, do a manual backup on old phone, reinstall Whatsapp on new phone, relink Desktop and Surface to new phone. Bingo! Half a damn hour that took to work out...
* Because the second SIM slot on my Huawei P30 wasn;t working, and I wanted her SIM and mine in the same phone for a few months so if anyone called her I could break the news ... but I hate the fingerprint reader on the M32 (love the reader on the P30) and I need a "full 5G/4G" phone because 3G is being turned off this month in the UK. And I have to switch carrier because the Vodafone 4G & 5G coverage here is non-existent but EE's works indoors. Just - I'm still using WiFi Calls because the signal is better.
Just to make life entertaining, I'm also dumping Sky landline, broadband, and Sky Q in favour of EE/BT Digital Voice, Broadband, and EE TV Box Pro as it's half the price.

Moving the files using the PC from one phone to the next one used to work too. I did it when my wife changed the phone last time (3-4 years ago?)

I had to do the backup from WhatsApp on my old phone (Android v8), as it was not included in Google backup. Might be that things have changed in newer Android versions.

THis is Samsung Android 13 to Samsung Android 13 ... you'd think they would get at least the basics right by now ... it's not as if they don't want you to upgrade the hardware as often as possible!

I have been trying to upgrade my EE package but their website is total crap. Select the option to view packages and it just goes round in circles. It also says it cannot log me in, even though I'm already logged in.

I went into the shop and got a staffer to do it all for me. Got my name wrong (there is no "K" in "Paul") but saved me loads of hassle. Mind you, the Vodafone site is generally worse - to the point where I changed my login to "IHateThisCrap" and my password to an obscenity.

Given the product(s) that they want us to buy you would think it's in their interest to have a decent website.

I feel your pain. Mrs. Wife's phone died this week, as the home/power button would neither home nor power. Mine has been slowly dying with an ever-shortening operating life on a charge.
I replaced both our phones today. Fortunately the phone dude recovered contacts and calendar data for both. It took me a couple of hours to get hers laid out the way she had the original. Mine was a little harder. Our original phones were 3-4 generations old, so things have changed.
As a moderately cranky old person, changes annoy me.

Do you remember the times when techie guys used to make fun of wives not being able to program the VCR? God, where are those simple times? Even writing "VCR" makes me feel incredibly old!

My first VCR did not do automatic channel scanning, even from cable TV. I had to manually set each channel, which took over an hour. To top it all off, the channel settings would be lost if the power went off for more than a few seconds.

Maybe you should offer your WhatsApp recovery services to Boris and Rishi

At the risk of getting political here, I suspect they would pay more to ensure they could never be recovered ...

greetings and kind regards
perhaps some here have seen YouTube videos of mathematics whereupon presenter writes on apparent glass pane and is seen apparently behind said pane yet the writing is facing the viewer as shown in link below . how the heck does that work ???

I'm betting it is a real glass (or plexiglass or something similar), and he really is writing on it, and the footing has been flipped left-to-right.

Thank you for your kind assistance in this matter. May I please inquire what is a "footing"?

The individual film frames. I don't know where I've heard the term used in the film industry - maybe my dyslexia has it confused with another term.
