It has done it again.

It changed one of the daily quests to Spend 10 minutes learning and put that as acquired, but it did not count it in the cumulative total. So I only got two quests credited today.

So 7 of the 50 needed for the badge after 3 days.

Perhaps the problem is that I have done some Duolingo in the morning and then done some more later.

I was using the computer this morning and it was still as in this problem.

Then later I suddenly realized that it has now corrected.

Please write a poem about a delicious meal made from a pack of organic chopped tomatoes heated in a microwave cooker and a pack of plain white Basmati rice heated in a microwave cooker.

A Microwave Meal of Tomatoes and Rice

In the heart of the kitchen, a tale unfolds,
Of a meal so warm, and a flavor so bold.
A pack of organic tomatoes, chopped and fine,
And a pack of Basmati rice, as pure as divine.

Into the microwave, the tomatoes take flight,
Bathing in waves of electromagnetic light.
A dance of particles, a symphony of heat,
Transforming into a sauce, tangy and sweet.

Next comes the rice, white as a dove,
Into the microwave, with a gentle shove.
The grains awaken, in the radiant glow,
Swelling and softening, in the warmth they know.

Out of the microwave, the ingredients emerge,
On the brink of union, where flavors converge.
The tangy tomatoes meet the rice so tender,
In a delicious harmony, an edible splendor.

A meal so simple, yet a taste so profound,
In the humble microwave, gourmet is found.
So here's to the magic, of a meal so nice,
Made of chopped tomatoes and white Basmati rice.

Yes.

I used to use Internet Explorer some years ago.

This 10 inch screen Hewlett Packard computer came with Windows 10S, which I have not unlocked, and came with, only has, and only has ever had, the Edge browser.

Thank you for replying.

I expected Alt-F to produce the menu bar across the top of the screen.

I think that somehow I have goit the list of open websites in small squares down the left side of the screen instead as wide rectangles across the top of the screen.

I find it interesting that the United Kingdom law on Legal Deposit seems to me to be written as if publishers will not want to do it.

From my point of view Legal Deposit is a wonderful facility. I send my publications to the British Library and they archive them and conserve them FREE for me.

William

Does America have Legal Deposit like we have in the United Kingdom?

If so, and if you so choose, you could publish it as a small Private Press Book and deposit copies as the law requires and it will be conserved by the Legal Deposit library or libraries as long as civilization lasts.

In the United Kingdom the Legal Deposit law also covers electronic publications.

I hope this helps.

William

Thank you.

That is very kind of you.

There is a problem.

I clicked on the Pale Blue that Alfred supplied, and that locked in as the fill at both upper left and upper right. But if I swapped at the right, then the Pencil Tool was Pale Blue but the filled colour in Alfred's Palette changed colour to what was previously the fill colour.

So leave it all for now and try to think it out and perhaps receive advice.
