RE: Lockhart teacher Sarah Fowlkes arrested for alleged improper relationship with student
@antiquarian I think libertarians agree with me that water is wet.
I kid, it's obvious that water can't itself be wet

RE: I'm happy to see the OPM has learned their lesson

Then you get the Microsoft ASP.Net WTF, where some characters aren't allowed at all, even &-encoded.
You can disable it with ValidateRequestMode if you know what you're doing and sanitize all the things in a non-automatic way.

RE: The Official Status Thread
@Weng said in The Official Status Thread:
Not because I can't. You just can't pay me enough to put up with it.
I thought C would be awesome, because nobody do boring CRUD stuff with C, right? Then I learned the hard way that most people that use C do it because they are clueless (at least here in my part of the globe).
Back on C# I had to put up with boring CRUD forms and cargo cultists that impose rules they don't understand.
I was only happy with programming when I was a kid writing x86 viruses and cracking down copy protections for fun.

RE: WTF Bites
@anotherusername said in WTF Bites:
The total column being misaligned from the double characters was probably the least strange part, since it's printing in a fixed-width font and I'd have expected that it's just using space characters to line that column up properly.
That is evidence that the fuckup happened after it was aligned, so I assume it's a bad RS232 cable problem. (Because old RS232 port is the less rare thing shitty enough to do that)

RE: The Official Funny Stuff Thread™
@boomzilla said in The Official Funny Stuff Thread™:
@RaceProUK Yeah, I've heard foreigners find it weird that lots of businesses fly flags and stuff, too.
I find this pledge thing ridiculous, I would be very upset if as a student we were asked to do something like this.
-
RE: WTF Bites
@anotherusername It got misaligned in the lines with double characters, so I suspect some sort of networking error. Was it a printer conected to a RS232 port?

Oh, and you won't get a TV that displays black nicely for less than $5000, since only OLED can do that.
I don't use my TV for displaying black.
More seriously, when there is a movie playing, your eyes adapt, and you can't really notice it.

RE: :pendant: Is "1080p supported" the same thing as 640x360?
@Adynathos said in Is "1080p supported" the same thing as 640x360?:
@Tsaukpaetra said in Is "1080p supported" the same thing as 640x360?:
"supported" means Jack shit
Oh, another situation where the word support is used to obfuscate useful information.
If we used real words, we could easily describe that the projector displays video in 640x480 but accepts input signal of 1080p resolution.No, don't accept this bullshit. Nobody cares that it "accepts 1080p input", it's a plain scam.

@Tsaukpaetra It's not if they are straight out lying to you. It's fraud.
