I would say many happy returns of the event, but from "tram 3" onwards, it's all downhill you know 
Happy Birthday in any case! Cheers, ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

My view on age, the older you are the longer it takes to recover from a night on & curry & also it starts to take longer to wash your face...

Yeah, that wasn't much of a challenge.

I've had to use an older phone, for a couple of weeks, because some stupid frugging idiot (who will remain nameless) dropped my newer phone out of the pocket of the shirt I was wearing, resulting in the kind of error that can only be defined as %#$*^$ %&@($^$ *#(@&$%^&* ()#*^$!!!
Because the older phone has less internal storage than I'm now used to, I had to look for stuff to cut, and one thing that stuck out a mile was the "google play services", which was blocking an Immense amount (120meg+) of data, on top of its program files.
"Well, insert that with a tool for applying fixings that have centrally mounted integral helical blades!" thunk I, and I rolled it back to its earliest (on that device) version -- total 3meg, app and data.
Since then, it has popped up a message for every app that I've opened, saying that the app won't work at all unless I update google play services.
... But every single app works precisely as designed! There are no problems at all! Everything works!
It's like spam: "Unless you do what we say, TERRIBLE THINGS will happen!"
But all that happens is that the phone works.

Yeah but without Play Services you are not taking advantage of the tracking and monitoring services generously foisted on you by Google. MS is not the only slurper out there!

Sadly true.
The "big three" seem more concerned with running our lives than providing good service.
What makes google more annoying is that android is basically just a linux distro. At least apple and ms have their own products -- which may be becoming more and more worthless (the latter far more hastily than the former), but they're still built in-house.
Oh, for a flavour of linux that's had a few hundred windows developers work on it*...
* Good ones, mind. There are plenty of cr@ppy windows devs, too.

If you buy potatoes because you have too many leeks, and leeks because you have too many potatoes, is it a Vichyssoise cycle?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

What, so if you have too much of something, you buy more of it, rather than buy something else?
Fair enough. I'll grant that you've given a fair definition of what a f***ing idiot is.
