    Pretty soon it will be illegal to fart in public. Or get a shave on Sunday. Or spit in public. Oh, wait, in some places those laws are already on the books!

    If 'we' make stupidity illegal, will it be retroactive and who will define "stupid"?

    That's because a couple of f'ag-boys wrote some truly lame code to handle posting, lame filters, and so on. Last major revision even introduced some serious usability bugs that haven't been fixed yet...! Tossers. Wankers. Feltchers.

  17. Re:Auf English, bitter on The LDP Becomes TLDP and i18n's Itself · · Score: 1

    I18n is the latest in Real Geek Speek: Internationalization. Basically you keep the first and last letter, then count the number of letters you chopped out and paste them inbetween the first and last letters. Saves typing and disk space. So, if your name was Buggerrugme, the new way would be B9e. Almost as bad as 'l330' fag speak.

    Oh yes, .NET.

    Where every control, dropdown, data grid, ad nausem, etc. is filled by SQL queries every time a page is loaded from Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e). Wonderfully pukey web site programming paradigm. Check out some of the sample code at the various ASP .NET sites - you will run, very quickly, away.

    This is a black art. I used to know NT4 inside out in this regard. With W2K, they added so much crap and changed so much, no one knows anymore.

    > Why bother to remove it?

    You must be a Microsoft minion to be asking such a, sorry, ignorant question. Both are a source of massive security holes. The default install of WMP has exploitable buffer overflows. IE, well, just look at all of the security fixes released for it in the last few months.

    rather had a different approach all together.Yeah, ignoring it until beat up by the rest of the industry. End result is costing everyone time and money.

    What we, as the end users, should be doing, is sending the various software and hardware vendors invoices for our wasted time and efforts in making their crap work. When they don't pay, send collection agenices after them.

    Yes, but IE also install Outlook Express and Windows Media Player. Sure as fork don't need those on a W2K server. Along with the Microsoft Fax Service and bunch of other pointless crap.

    Not to mention \inetpub has full access to the Everyone local group - what a cluster forkup that is.

    Can't wait until they release Windows .NET Server later this year - looking forward to ripping it up and roasting Messysoft over a spit.

  25. Re:A comment about APC... on Security in UPS Software? · · Score: 1
    Even more stupidity from APC:


    Do not hook up the 'smart' serial cable to the UPS before installing Windows or the client software. Why? During boot, Windows probes the serial ports for serial mice. When the APC UPS sees this probing, it goes into shutdown mode - you have only so long until the UPS shuts down power.

    I've also had cases where the APC client did not shutdown SQL or Exchange before pulling the power - and it had enough battery juice to keep going for another 20-30 minutes.

    Another case where the so called Engineers of these products need to be strung up. Wankers.
