Hmmmm. Actually, last night I streamed (and watched) "Bikini Girls on Ice[^]". Could that have something to do with it?

Congrats and have fun with it 
But in my small opinion the Romer-G switches of Logitech Keyboards are better.

I see a common trend in Q&A and that is that almost everyone who uses RegisterStartupScript (or one of its variations) is under the impression that they are calling javascript code from code-behind, or that the js is executing immediately in the browser. Needless to say the problem they are having is almost invariably the result of this misunderstanding rather than an issue with the code itself.
I think Microsoft should rename this function to something like
RegisterStartupScriptPSYourJavascriptIsNOTRunningImmediatelyInTheBrowserYouCANNOTCallJavascriptFromCodeBehind.
Interop is another issue that many have problems understanding and again almost everyone that posts with an Interop problem is labouring under the impression that "Interop" is simply .net code that manipulates Office documents (it's always Office). Microsoft should rename the Interop namespace to something like
InteropPSThisCodeIsJustAProxyToYourCOMApplicationItIsNOTStandAloneCodeYouNeedTheActualApplicationInstalledOnAnyMachineYouWantThisCodeToRunOn
It's not just Microsoft, I think some standards should be updated to remove issues too. Almost everyone who posts with a CORS issue is attempting to solve the issue by adding the allow origin headers to the request they are sending. I think that the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" header should be renamed to something like
Access-Control-Allow-Origin-PS-You-Add-This-Header-To-The-Server-Not-The-Client-What-Good-Is-Any-Security-Measure-The-Client-Can-Simply-Disable

I think the problem is that the teachers don't understand what a "client-server" model is and as a result their students don't have a clue either.
And testing websites on the development PC (which is also the server) doesn't discourage that misunderstanding at all. How many times do we see server code with Messagebox.Show in it? 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

I remember someone, this time not me but out application architect, leaving a message box in a 'never happen' branch of the server code.
Guess when it hit the branch? About 3 frickin a.m. one night, luckily I wasn't in bed. Actually I had been in bed, but I was on my home and had stopped off for a beer...

Why use MessageBox? What's wrong with writing to a log?

Some more for the list:
- Using
MsgBox / MessageBox.Show from the code-behind; - Using
Process.Start to try to open a file on the client; - Using the
FileName property of a FileUpload / HttpPostedFile to try to read the file directly from the client's disk;
All of which "work" when you run the site in Visual Studio. Maybe we should be blaming VS for encouraging incorrect reasoning about the code?
Then there's the "There must be a way to bypass this security feature - my client requires it!" brigade.
And the "I need to show 1 million records in one page without filtering or paging, and it needs to load in less than one second - it's a client requirement!" brigade:
Quote: Agnes Skinner: And you! Start over! I want everything in one bag.
Bag Boy: Yes, ma'am.
Agnes: But I don't want the bag to be heavy.
Bag Boy: I don't think that's possible...
Agnes: What are you, the "possible police"? Just do it!

FOCK! You have some stupid clients. I hope you're taking advantage of them.

Weddings, christening and those awful work parties that you're forced into attending! 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

I see a pattern evolving in your function naming scheme. I'd hate to use your libraries.

Just write wrappers 
RegisterStartupScript_PS-RTFM
Interop_PS-RTFM
Access-Control-Allow-Origin-PS-RTFM

How about renaming the courses these students take?

The WookieTab is dual boot - and it upgraded Win10 to AE last night (successfully, and with much improvement, I was surprised.)
But I just went to switch it from Windows to Android and it's decided to upgrade itself. So it's sitting there going

The general consensus seems to be that that message is wrong.
It should read, "Don't turn off our computer".
