The other, of course, involves orcs.

    I'd love to tell you differently because either one of your options would be more interesting... but it's just the Plain Old Space Shuttle Enterprise.

    Apparently there's obj-c++ but I am not sure the point of that is. Interfacing C++ classes into obj-c syntax?

    None of them. Let them be exposed and teach them to question until they get satisfactory answers.

    A reasoned person need not fear any knowledge.

    That book they read in The Evil Dead. You should hide that, if you have a copy around the house. Hide it in your cabin. The one deep in the woods.

    My internet was slow, so I phoned a technician who identified I had misconfigured my router and set things up so things are way faster.

    Good customer service? Twice in as many weeks?! I'm now afraid I have used up all my good fortune and the rest of my life will be a cascade of misfortune. D:
