My new mobile phone has a feature that activates every Sunday, and creates a lovely slideshow, complete with soothing music, of all the photos taken during the week.
So now I can sit down, every Sunday, and enjoy a lovely candle-lit meal with my beautiful wife, and we can gaze with unabashed romanticism at the pictures of hardware cabinets, server blades, terminal servers, etc.
Such joy these amazing phone-app developers bring us, and how wise they are to make the apps impossible to uninstall (without root), because it is certain that everyone will want the apps to switch themselves on every Sunday until forever.

Use this to uninstall unwanted application without root-ing your phone: The Magic Tool[^]
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Ah, but one must not give in to temptation -- especially on a Sunday.

At least you'd get the chance to say "Shall we try a glass of this with dessert?"
The best result I could have is to spot a fibre that's been shoved in the wrong switch port, and the happy discussion that could ensue on RSTP failures.

Note to self: be sure to delete / transfer / otherwise remove pictures of lovely girlfriend taken during the week prior to Sunday or plan on making appointment with divorce lawyer.

Good idea!
And you can do it safely, too, because google, dropbox, the NSA, and all their uncles will all keep back-up copies for you!

Why did you have to say you missed* the rain[^]?
Thursday and Friday were total wash outs and a lot of roads have been damaged around here with drains bursting and the roads collapsing on top. The biggest I know of is a good 5m long taking out the main highway near where we live. I now have to try and find a back-up, back-up route for school as this morning was another marathon 3 hour round trip!
Today looks sunny though and, if Mrs Wife fancies it, it may be good enough for a late afternoon swim in the Med. Swings and roundabouts, innit.
Hows your Sunday?
* yes I know it should be 'bless[ed]' but this was funnier [not]

Quick! Drop a house on some old woman, steal her shoes and click the heels together three times, while saying "there's no Gin like Gordons".
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Yesterday was sunny, 60's, and my gf and I took a lovely walk by the Hudson River.
This morning, there's 3 inches of snow on the ground!

No snow here, it's in the high teens today after the weekend of biblical rain. Some locals say you can have 4 seasons in a day here.

As well as a lovely meal, backdropped by photos of spaghetti wiring, I have recreation of all my virtual drives to look forward to, because windows, for very wise reasons, obviously, decided that I didn't need them.

Nice title...took me a second to realize which Toto you were referring to! BTW, I remember a few years back Dave Auld posted a video to that song.

It was one degree over freezing this morning, will be low '70sF by afternoon. The job of the day is to crawl around in the attic and run new cable for TV in an upstairs bedroom that sees company maybe 10 days/nights a year...otherwise the kids fight over the other room that already has a TV. I just do what I'm told! I'd rather be coding!

How about installing Linux and MonoDev? Apple, Google, Mickeysoft: Put them in a bag and beat the bag with a club. You will always hit one who deserves it.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

lol Microsoft is still gonna win cuz they 'buying out' Linux soon! hehe. Just kidding
But did you notice the other news[^] ? They are getting involved more there, towards Linux/open-source. They might escape from your bag!
