These guys at M$ cant build a solitaire app which isnt annoying the user with some internet loading messages.
Their UI is a shame 
Press F1 for help or google it.

The same as you pay for dozens of other comms apps that don't take the p1ss.

Skype to Skype is free. Using Skype For Business or calling Non-Skype endpoints costs money. So yes, I'm paying for it.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

Just curious, tried killing that process?
I'd install skype to try it, ... but on second thoughts, nah.

I would block the app with the firewall and see what happens.

Yes, Sander, it's true. They got one of your ScriptWraiths.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Not quite. You may build an immunity over time or kill yourself. Russian roulette is more straightforward. Mithridatism - Wikipedia[^]

Can't see the article: they won't let ad-blocked browsers through.

Use NoScript[^] on Firefox / ScriptBlock[^] on Chrome.
With scripts disabled, their ad-block-blocker doesn't work.

I love the idea of a script blocker, or really, a blocker-blocker-blocker.
Alas - I need to keep my browser the same as everyone else, here, so when I produce something that "works on my machine" it will work on theirs (probably). The page is not particularly important, and, of course, I could always use IE, which amazingly I don't have to support!
From the recent two posts, I'm beginning to think that another thing outsourced to India is candidates for the Darwin Awards.

Most news sites are like that. Look at uBlock origin or NoScript or something else similar.

Sure. Send me your address and credit card information and I'll have one delivered in no time.

Logically, for the M&M's sorter, you only need two receptacles.
- One for the Green ones
- One for the trash

The whole thing should be thrown into trash, actually.

That makes me wonder what was invented 20 years ago that's even better than this sorting machine?
