I just got a Silverlight updater turn up on my machine offering to update my plug in. As I am under the impression some dumb bastard has castrated my development platform by withdrawing support for this platform I decided to investigate via the Learn more about this update.
It takes me to a website [^]telling me it is going to update my version to 4.0.60531.0. and was released some time in 2011.
The scary thing is that my user base may attempt to do this, while most do not have admin rights there are a few who this will probably screw up their system if they apply the upgrade. I predict the minions are going to be pissed with MS over the next few days.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

Youch. I wonder if that's related to the IE patch that is apparently SO bad that it warranted mention on a Country Music radio station.

Random Question From Out In Left Field Of The Day
If you could have one superpower, what would it be? (The ability to have all abilities, and other things of that ilk, are not acceptable answers)
Mine would be transmogrification.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

|
|
Not a kind of superpower, but I have always wanted to have Eidetic Memory.. 
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

I would have said that too, but I'd forgotten about it.

It's worth remembering that some current thinking is that the Universe will just end up as a sparse dust cloud one day. I'd rather not be around for that, especially forever.

I already have a superpower.
I am GrammarMan, I can instantly see Grammatical Errors and Spelling Mistakes in online posts and can highlight them for the OP to see. A truly awesome ability.
I would like the ability to be able to function without sleep.
Spending a third of my life unconscious is wasteful. Think how much more I could achieve if I didn't need to sleep!

Good question.
Better question would be would you use that power for good or evil?
Super strength would be loads of fun, just picking up, moving around, destroying whatever you wanted. Could really deal with anyone who pissed you off, or just have a laugh.
I'd love to be able to fly, would be an incredible feeling, and allows you to avoid people, avoid queues, get wherever you wanted in a straight line.
Then of course you have invisibility for all the voyeuristic perverts out there, and let's face it who amongst us wouldn't be if they could?
On reflection I think I'd like the ability to properly boil an egg, must be a super power because I still can't f***ing do it properly.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
