Just had a coffee and lunch with virang_21 here in North Sydney. Didn't wander too far as virang_21 had decided last month to break his foot.
Virang is the 13th CPian I have met in person and not the 12th I mention in the past thread. I forgot to add Dan Neely who was No. 12.

Were they all from Australia or did some of them find a way to the underside of this flat planet?
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

For all we know he might not even exist. May be a bot typing random messages.

I would not believe it if we did not have something like that as well. In our case it's a town that does not really exist[^].

I came from the US.
I'm not sure about all the people on his previous list, but at least half are/were living in Australia.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It was nice meeting you. You are the first ( or should the array index start at zero ) official CPian I have met in person. Lets catch up sometime soon and may be this time change the poison of choice from coffee to beer !

Just what the faarrrkkkk are you thinking? I'm contracting down North Sydney, I get in 06:30 while the next entrant arrives around 09:00. So I get some work out of the way early, peruse CP and some news sites and also get a bit of other client work done (off the clock here for those thinking I double dip). Today since I had the personal laptop out doing a bit of other work, I thought lets run some Windows Updates, Windows 10 1803, nVidia drivers, Windows Defender Definition updates and a Samsung Universal Printer driver.
Hang on Mike Hunt, I don't have a Samsung printer, I know they do here in the office, but I'll be faarrrkkkked sideways by an elephant dipped in broken glass before I want their printer setup on my laptop.
I'll faarrrkkkking ask for the drivers of any device I haven't yet setup yet, you c**k-knockers. I hope the Microsoft wankers who had anything to do with this abortion, even tangentially, all get spontaneous, voracious arse cancer and die.

Hi,
When you connect to a LAN your device will use SSDP protocol[^] to discover UPnP[^] devices and install anything and everything on the network including Samsung printers.
If you want to avoid this scenario then you will need to disable SSDP and perhaps UPNP before connecting to an unknown network.

Then they can ask me if I want too, not make decisions on my behalf, I also hate that faarrrkkkking WSD printer thing. Just found this[^] to stop Windows from automatically setting up printers on Windows 10.

Yes, but being the inventor of the elephant nomenclature I can stray from it when I wish.

No, no I did not.

Don't hold it in, let us all know how you really feel...

You do realize, although perhaps overtly in denial, that the Windows 10 PC/Laptop is just an inconvenient-to-carry 'smart phone'? Embrace that thought. The pain will go away. All roads lead to FaceBook!

Your client is a liar - his e-mail is obviously working.
I think you can safely ignore everything else he complains about based on that.
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

In an office long ago, I used to hear cries of 'the internet is down!'. Fond memories of being the only IT guy/programmer for 3 companies in the same office building.
