    The Surface Go 10" and Access Office 365

    The little thing is amazing. However, couple of things to be done. By default Office 365 now downloads 64 Bit. At first my Access stuff would not run. On one of my Toshiba Porteges (3 years old) I uninstalled Office 365 and downloaded Office 365 again and everything ran perfectly. HOWEVER...

    Question related to speed of light.

    As we know if you accelerate your time slows and if you could reach the speed of light then time for you would cease to move. To be hypothetical if you jump on a light beam then you would arrive at any place in the universe and from your perspective zero time would have elapsed. I think I have...
