The two days it snowed here were over Christmas, so there wasn't postal service anyways.
Goal: stop global warming, so you can get chocolate.

@Fox said in The Official Status Thread:
wondering why people don't use CSS Animations and Transitions in web design, and instead use craptons of Javascript to do the same things.
No one understands CSS. No one understands javascript, either, but jQuerying all the things is pretty simple.

I swear, the CSS development process is defined as trial and error.

I do not approve of updates being downloaded over the VPN at a rate ranging between 0-1kB/s. At this rate all the updates will be downloaded and installed shortly after hell is entirely paved over (to reference the above).
There was a download stuck at 13.771% (and showing 0% on SCClient) for about an hour, then "something" kicked on, I got notification of new updates, and now everything's chugging along downloading, even if slowly. I don't understand ConfigMgr/Nomad.

@Lorne-Kates This is what the temperature was like this week for me and @JazzyJosh :
From 9 to 68 in less than three days.

Status: Apparently the Unreal Engine build thing does not like using a RAMDisk for its "Staging Build" directory.
Then again, allocating a 64 GB RAMDisk for this purpose was a less-than-half-baked idea anyways...

@JazzyJosh Yeah I believe they're having extreme weather?

Status: Working from home. We got ice overnight, and then just enough snow over the top to make it a lovely disaster waiting to happen. It'll clear in a few hours I expect, but with the weird adverse camber on my street I'm not keen on venturing out for a little while. Getting into work for just after lunch would be possible I guess, but why bother when I don't need to?
Now I've just got to make sure I work today instead of treating it as a long weekend… ;)

@Tsaukpaetra Sports and Athletes?

@Jaloopa that's an intriguing picture. I'm not sure
- why that car still kinda looks like a car
- why that car is in the air or how it got suspended like so

Status: Working from home again today because our dog sprained something yesterday evening when he wanted to chase some roe off the lawn. Didn't want to make jim jump in and out of cars today, otherwise he spends the days with my in-laws.
Poor thing, he's limping around and can't really find a comfortable spot. He just ate three sandwhiches so there is still some life in him, but again. He's 11, and age is beginning to show enough without adding injury to it.
Here's a picture of him from when he was younger (2 1/2, to be precise), to cheer me up:

@dkf Either way, it's got no place on the lawn!

If it smells like hell when you open the tin it would be in the right place

Status: back at work. Found out someone's 'completed' my in-progress task but I've made a new one for the last bit.
Should be a nice relaxing day since there's hardly anyone here (between snow, colds, and people who work from home on a Friday), there's sod-all to do this sprint, and no-one was expecting me here today anyway so anything I get done is a bonus.

@anonymous234 Mario 2006 was the meme from what I hear.
Other than that part, the game looks cool.

/me shudders
-
@anonymous234 I feel like I'd be more willing to play Super Bethesda Mario than actual Bethesda games. Jerkishly putting open worlds in games is their shtick, right?
-
@RaceProUK The 3D Mario games (or the Super Mario Galaxy games, at least) are better than that.

From what I've heard, you could argue that Big Rig Racers is better than Sonic 2006
-
@loopback0 Super Mario 64 pretty much defined the 3D platformer, and the Galaxy games are great, so I'm cautiously optimistic.

Just some examples:

- Madden NFL 94 to 17
- FIFA 95 to 17
Maybe it's time to put your Sega Genesis to rest ?

I really need to be more careful to change the date/time back after I've set it forward to trick Candy Crush Saga into giving me new lives.

Status: Loving how Windows update can be "100% complete" for 15 minutes before starting over from 0.

@HardwareGeek Sadly the "100% complete but it will still take a while to finish" disease affects a lot more software than just Windows Update. Although usually it's not that severe.
