Assuming its name comes from ISO rules, it should be an 8 millimeter wide screw, with a pitch of 1 millimeter ( fine thread). Not sure about the last part, however. are you sure it is 1/8', or could you be misreading it?

however, you also said that the screw is just a bit wider than 1 millimeter, which means that either you are very wrong, or this isn't an ISO screw. ( ISO stands for International Organization for Standardization). in that case, your best bet is to go to the local shop, tell them what is written on the screw and hope they find one that matches.

edit: 1/8' might be tolerances, but I am not sure. either way, I don't think there is information about length.

To buy a proper grower washer I only need a diameter, and I am totally lost here. I know what ISO is about, and screw description was right from manual. And I am pretty sure that any local shop will threat me as a retard if I come by with ISO standart, because we have local one (GOST, idk how it's abbreviated in outer world). I hoped for someone savvy with inch/pint/gallon standarts.

I sort of doubt the table's in use 24/7 so you could take one out and plug it back in after you get the measurements, I don't really know.

I start my usual workday at around 2pm, and finish at 7-8pm, and many of my colleagues start to work much earlier (call them slaves ), more to conventional 9-to-5, so they will miss sessions and will be upset, lacking all this happy thoughts. If I couldnt get answer here, then I will subjugate one screw by force, ofc. Wanted more peacefull resolution though

Idk, I always thought that real world and real life sucks  It's not like I have problems with it, I just think it's just plain boring. So much downtime, all that unintersting people and stupid socium-approved time sinkers.
I have all needed socialising at work, then I rush home to blessed solitude and world of games/books/cinema/tv-shows.

For people that dont know this is a turn based rpg game similar to Legend of Grimrock but more open world.

This is outrageous. First, Grimrock is a copycat of Eye of Beholder/Dungeon Master games. Second, they going back to what M&M was in 1-5 installments. How the hell you came with Grimrock here? Third, what with all the babbling about Heroes, which is a sidekick from the series and entirely another game?

I am either really old to discuss this seriously, or really dumb 

1. Eat less. I can't stress that. On my 8 months stint in goa I lost 15kg just by eating alot less than usual. Warm climate helped alot. And I did zero excercising outside of rare, casual swimming.
2. Kill sugars and most carbs (this includes alcohol), especially grain. And I am not going to explain why.
3. Anaerobic kills cardio in weight loss. I am not going to explain that, people write books about that, but nobody in their right mind use running for weight loss, it's for your cardio health, not for shredding some kg's. Weight lifting and/or crossfit-a-like is much better. And this all requires like 45 mins 2-3 times a week at most (big w/l trio: deadlift/squat/bench; crossfit is more demanding though, because it's a mix)

Do it in that order and you are set.

I started to roll my Rs in 5years when parents offered me a bonus of 5 roubles. It was a big money back then, it's worked.

Its a list of what you should know as a CS Major, NOT as a Software Engineer. It also doesn't say you'll need it, it says you should know it (big difference, you should know lots of things you don't need to know)

The document is intended to position you to seize basically every opportunity that comes along, from my reading. Vim is a useful tool for that. Nothing on this page is mandatory to be a successful software guy, even a senior guy. Everything on this page is useful as a tool in your arsenal for getting there and will help you take advantage of opportunities along the way. Vim and Emacs are both ubiquitous across unix-based systems, and they are one of the more common bits of technology among organizations that use them - learning them is definitely a useful thing, and I've got no problem with them appearing on this list. They also encourage a mentality that is useful for Computer Scientists even if they don't end up using them in their job BECAUSE they don't just hand everything to you, but expect you to use it as the base of a tool customized to fit your needs. The document emphasizes in multiple places how important it is to do things from scratch at least once, understand how and why the pieces fit together and fit them together yourself. Something like Vim is an extension of that and useful to know. He makes it quite clear that you're learning it to familiarize yourself with the philosophy, not because of it's usefulness. Even if you don't adopt the Unix philosophy yourself, familiarity with it is extremely important if you want to keep doors open moving forward.

It's not needed and I don't think the document says otherwise. Much like learning Racket, it's about the benefits of learning the tool rather than needing to use the tool moving forward.

I really, really can't argue with you, because my english sucks. I can write a novel in my original language about how this article is wrong on many levels, but I disgress.

On a foot note, overall, it's a terrible document for anybody who is going for practitioning programming. I mean real job. If you ever is going for senior position in a software company - it's a bad reading. I mean it - it's harmful and you will be dissapointed in the end. It's good theorethically, but otherwise stupid. I dont even want to start to talk about how business needs is important in practical programming. And this is totally absent there. And I am generally adamant about how education system is bad for real job needs, but it's a whole new topic worthy.

Sorry, I was folllowing this thread from start, and I really was taken away just by this exact text. So I thought I should answer, whatever crude my answer was. And gosh, vim vs IDE is last subject which matters, please stop it, I am already bored.

Anyway, the versions my coworkers use work similar to the way you just described, yes. Some path information would usually be required because we've got plenty of files that start with the same letters or even have the same name (for good reasons I don't want to get into here) but that's not a product of the tool. Others would point and click at the file tree to open up the file in a new tab in vim.

I talk about tens of thousands files. Obviosly we have like twenty Storage.php files, but I can select needed one out of list provided by IDE. Vim just can't do it efficiently. Thats why I dislike that notion in the file I read. You can be much more efficient with learning all capabilities of your IDE of choice, instead of wasting time on vim. And yes, I am pretty adamant about learning vim is a waste of time. So many hotkeys for editor which is not best for your work? No. Not efficient.

(Mine might be able to do that but I personally wouldn't, as I am sure I have a very different workflow from my coworkers and from you. It wouldn't be much more difficult for me even though it would be quite different result-wise.)

Either way it would be trivial to set up vim to work exactly that way, but the "find file by case" thing honestly seems kind of dumb.

vim or even mc(i know people crazy like that) is not trivial to setup exactly that way, because installing good IDE require exactly nothing.

Btw I really dislike it's degraded into "vim or die" (it's same as PC vs Mac in my opinion), because I think other points I mentioned in my post is more important.
