The Pentagon. Weird looking building. Four walls and a spare. Monument to Murphy's law.

I manage hundreds of workstations at many locations all remotely. Most every user that uses Windows has no administrative access. Sometimes, if they are running poorly written software that uses a local SQL database, I have to either allow them administrative access or be ready to take a call every time their crappy vender decides to do an update.

My solution, for Windows 7 at least, was to create a second administrative user account called, "This is a Virus" and the passwords for these accounts typically fall along the lines of, "InstallVirusNow". So, every time UAC pops up asking them to modify something on their computer, they have to choose the "This is a Virus" user account and type the password "InstallVirusNow". You wouldn't believe how drastically this has cut down on issues on their machines.

1940s - Various "computers" are "programmed" using direct wiring and switches. Engineers do this in order to avoid the tabs vs spaces debate.

1801 - Joseph Marie Jacquard uses punch cards to instruct a loom to weave "hello, world" into a tapestry. Redditers of the time are not impressed due to the lack of tail call recursion, concurrency, or proper capitalization.

FBI megaupload indictment (warrant)

TLDR; MU didn't remove the actual file upon a DMCA request but only one of the links to the (deduplicated) file, without letting the IP owner know which other links exist.

That Schmitz guy, one constant facepalm since the nineties.

Gezeigt wird auch ein Stück "Stalin-Rasen". So nannte der DDR-Volksmund die mit Metalldornen bestückten Matten, die an Ufern ausgelegt wurden, um Fluchtwilligen den Weg nach Westen zu versperren.
