What? 
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

(*) Tongue-twister message of the day
"Phase-locked loop lock lost"
Yes, I actually had to add that as an error message today. I can't wait to hear what the translators say...

At least your error messages mean something, Error Code 99, please! (was use a WTF message from a radio unit I was working on, I then found that all errors would generate code 99 due to a firmware bug) that means googling until you hit something useful!

Actually, most of them are like this: "The frajmespanner has convolved with the hooji-whatsis to a level of 0.453; manually clean the overhead forbit-schtücher valves to correct".

I bet it was still more useful than "Error 86: Missed it by that much"

Well if every error wasn't a 99, due to the Muppet who wrote the update not seeing how the errors were generated and passed to RTOS (he was passing them wrongly) which was why the user front end had the message "Error" and various buttons to click on to give you more information of how to cure hardware set up errors & firmware errors.

Pfft!
I'm using MATLAB these days and trying to build an exe, I get this:
Error executing mcc, return status = 255 (0xff).
Googly no helpy. I know it is something to do with our code but, and we're in the BIG but zone, what code and where? Which of the 925 files is causing the error? I have no hair left to pull out!

Looney Tune confidence trick isn't difficult (9)
If PeejayAdams ever spoke about himself in the third person, I would not vote for PeejayAdams.

Original clue was:

We have no responses as yet, so here's another clue with the same solution:
Straightforward development process ignores IT (9)

Still "blind Bambi" I'm afraid - looks like you are back up again tomorrow.
So what was the answer?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

The answer was UNTESTING.
1) Looney Tune = UNTE + confidence trick = STING
2) UNITTESTING
Next one will be along just as soon as I think of it.

Hi All,
I have let my Lounge attendance slip since Wednesday. Training course I am now a certified PAM operator
(my intention is to able to paper a wall with certificates  ). It looks like I have got to update my Serial Port article after I installed and tried to run my bit o' software to look impressive and it blew up! (much egg on face!  ). Now to the sad news Glenn from 'The Walking Dead' is no more will I have to start with my old mantra of it's two N's please... 
|
|
|
|
|
The big question is "why would you want to handle PAM[^]?" 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Y'know, I normally wait until a full season of Walking Dead is broadcast before binge-watching it all, but I made a special case last Sunday and watched the season premiere because I knew it was going to be impossible to avoid spoilers that find their way in the least-expected places.
So, here you are...
|
|
|
|
|
Can you believe I've managed not to hear, read or see any spoiler about it till now?
|
|
|
|
|
I really am sorry about that, but it was all over uncle google!

--- Spoiler alert ---
I'm not mad at it, I've read all the comics from Kirkman and in this case (given what you say) it was exactly the same, but there have been plenty of small and not so small differences between comics and tv show...
Anyway, even you can search for it, there are people like me that have not searched for that information as we were expecting to see it on tv...
No problem, but a small spoiler alert at the beginning would have been great.

I have not read the comics yet, saving them for a special occasion. I learnt my lesson from Watchmen read the comic/graphic novel was a little let down by the film. Conversely read the Gormengast novels saw the BBC series liked the TV show more than the book.  Sorry about that I was just miffed that I would have to start telling people that it two N's again!

Both are great, truly.
In this case, it's not the format itself, it's the fact that are really big differences... people that die in one format are still alive in the other, places that are not in one of the formats and that appear and are important in the other one...
Also there are important differences with people itself, there are important characters in the TV series that doesn't appear in the comic books...
Probably now I should say I enjoy the TV show more than the comics, but the comic was a little bit repetitive after Negan's appearance, who knows what will happen with the TV show.
