Agreed, you should be bucking the system.

Sometimes it's good to halter ones behaviour.

You have to be careful it doesn't stall, but as long as you're each other's manestay, the dream wedding in Canterbury and the bridle suite at Carriages, should set you up for life!

When the tool-tip on long lines of the errors list in SharpDevelop disappears before you can read it? I hate that.

Well, you should've been more careful when you wrote that code!

My code is always at it's worst during a code review, it's amazing that it even compiles.
I honestly didn't know that tabs or spaces and trailing curly braces could cause world hunger 
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Hi All,
I have got three calls today, that my Internet connection has been used by various people for various uses such as money laudering and the like. They seem to want me to download Supremo control or something else. Not happening. Run ASSOC command and the like (look in horror at all the hacking files). Then the CLSID performance...
PLEASE
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, come on... When you get calls like that, have fun with them. Pretend you have no idea what any of it means, and that you're just mistyping everything they tell you. See if you can frustrate them so much that they end up in the funny farm. Consider it a public service.
|
|
|
|
|
Spot on,
Rattling that particular cage is definitely a public service.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, I did try with the first one who claimed they were from BT, the second and third I was trying to get my emails sorted. I am sure there is a special level of 'heck' for these guys! CLSID they claim is Consumer License ID number but when I corrected them that it's Class ID I am met with NO!...
|
|
|
|
|
Yep. Try to do what they are telling you, exactly as they say to.
But on an Android tablet.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
|
|

|

I guess asking them how to do all that on a raspberry PI running a, preferably non-existing, Linux distro should get them of your back pronto or yield some interesting responses. 
|
|
|
|
|
It's the interesting responses we want! Email 'em huge, scrambled "jpg" files with "screen shots" showing the messges...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Yes keep them occupied for as long as possible. It might save one more gullible person from damage.
|
|
|
|
|
My record so far for keeping them on the line is 35 minutes. Anyone beat that?

Many things puzzle me in the world of IT but none more than this:
The null coalescing operator (?: or ?.) in various languages is known as the Elvis operator because, apparently, if you turn it on its side it looks like Elvis.
The only thing is ... it just doesn't. I can't even work out which era of Elvis it's supposed to resemble. The rock 'n' roll years? The army years? The '68 comeback? The Vegas years? Some time after he died? I'm just not seeing it at all. However many pictures of Elvis I look at, I just can't find one where his hair remotely resembles a sideways question mark.
Admittedly, my eye-sight isn't terribly good but I just can't imagine that anyone could possibly see this as Elvis without considerable chemical assistance. Is it just me?
