Your issue sounds most likely to be a hardware problem. If not, then it might possibly be some misconfigured power settings. You should take it to your IT department to have it checked out.

That I have done "Hi, I think there is an issue with my Laptop connecting to Wi-Fi", "That should fix it!" (it doesn't) go back same issue, "You, have an old laptop, I'll see when you are due a new one, August 2022, so I can't swap it out" "I can't alter any of the power, or network setting or it will void our Network agreement" "Hmm wait until it fails, save all your current stuff to One Drive, oh you can't access it can you" Seriously it is going to have an accident.

You have my deepest sympathies. No IT team I work on would ever handle it like that.

How can they call themselves an 'IT Help Desk' more like 'IT Prevention', I feel I'm Dilbert Heck, Accounting Trolls are next!!

I'm trying to create a permanent link to a message. I click the chain icon in the lower right of the message. And then .... nothing. There is nothing in the clipboard to paste! Where is the permalink and how do I get it?

The URL changes. Copy and paste it.

Aaaaaaaaah! Thanks.

The simplest option is to right-click the icon and select "copy link".

Paraphrased from Microsoft's own docs in order to make it readable
MyMethod(options => _ = provider switch
{
"option 1" => options.Method1(x => x.Prop),
"option 2" => options.Method2(x => x.Prop),
_ => throw new Exception($"Unsupported option: {option}")
});
Are we really helping the Art with this type of syntax? I'm trying to work out what we're saving here. Keystrokes? HDD space? Screen real estate?

Trying to save all the above, show how clever language designers can be, and burn out everyone else's brain cells trying to keep up with, and parse, all this shite.

Completely agree...
Many of the new features to the Microsoft .NET compilers, to me, are completely unreadable.
This all started with generics and LINQ years ago, when they introduced the caret as a compiler symbol.
With code,they have made it ambiguous while with LINQ, they turned SQL upside down.
What is the purpose of all this? To show that you can make programming as difficult as rocket science?
I never use any of these features and stick with the "old ways" of writing code. It is much easier with little to ambiguity.
So what if you save a few milli-seconds here or there. Who cares?

I really like that you mentioned that.
Just yesterday during a live coding session another dev was showing me how to do a thing.
He used a C# anonymous function / lambda expression and was trying to get it right (and this was his code) and he was typing, backspacing, typing, backspacing...waiting for intellisense, typing waiting for intellisense...
I was like, "yeah, functional programming...no one can remember the syntax..." We both laughed.
I mean regular old OOP and structured programming is really easy to remember and type actually.

In the words of Kernighan - everyone knows that debugging is harder than coding. Therefore if you are being as clever as you can be when writing the code, you will have no chance of debugging it.

That is one reason I never liked to program in Unix. The Programmers wrote code that was that was terrible to understand, even for C programming. Compared to writing C for MS or PC DOS where the code was understandable. I can see why Unix has been called a "write only operating system" and why other coders who read someone else's code will call it crap.
