Unlike those pesky invisible shoulder aliens.

I always thought it was an Invisible Shoulder Penguin.

From what I can tell, HE'S the pangolin, but the shoulder aliens (body thetans?) are the ones who get him to start fires.

Latest theories include Cuba and Azerbeidjan.

I get the first, but the second? On the other hand my pet project is sending me information about somebody with a Facebook page in arabic named Jihad... should I be worried?
@morbiuswilters said:

People in Cuba are too poor to use the Internet.

At home maybe and not all of them, but there are other ways.

that other one is just a fictional place from Harry Potter books.

Seriously, what is wrong with these forums? Is there a bug tracker I can submit problems with the site to, or perhaps submit my assistance for porting the forums to something... functional?

The short answer is No. The long answer is . . . No.

I just remembered I still own the /tdwtf page on yourworldoftext.com.

If no one wants it I'm just gonna unclaim it. If someone does want it, I'm gonna unclaim it anyways because I don't think you can actually transfer those things (but you could grab it right after).

Just so nobody gets confused:

The product placement/Oracle bashing thread is about gun control
The Firefox/Firebug context menu thread is about Google Chrome
The PDF thread is also about Google Chrome
The Go/bug report thread is about Outlook/Hotmail
The Community Server bashing/date format thread is about Go
The Google+/GTalk thread is about Java
The SQL date thread is about SQL and dates
The thread about Go's package manager and really really dumb """open source""" developers is about a C# package manager
The "Death of the PC" thread is about porn
The JavaScript mailto link generator thread is about GMail's spam protection
The StackOverflow/Indian college homework/pls sned teh cods thread is about markov chains
The thread about a dumb technical architect is about Firefox-related puns
The shitty website thread is about demeaning women
The dumb comments thread has dumb comments
The print-your-own newspaper thread is about telemarketers
The Wine file browser thread was about racism but now it's about hypoglycemics

What's your fucking problem with Solaris anyhow? It's like Linux, without being infected with a virus that's arguably more dangerous than HIV.

Speaking of viruses, why do all the deadly ones have three-letter names and start with H? I only know one deadly virus that starts with a different letter, and that's a G.

I don't have a problem with Solaris. It's just funny because now it's called "Oracle Solaris".

It's like that old joke except it's not a joke.

I feel like my humour detector may be on the blink, but I'll jump in and answer that as if it were a real question, with another question: to which species are these viruses deadly?

The GPL is deadly to your freedom, good sir. The GPL is MORE restrictive than most commercial software licenses. BSD is the only truly free license.

I think you're confusing it with the WTFPL.

Don't forget the Apache license! That's the shit that lets cell phone manufacturers get away with bastardizing Android, not releasing any source, locking the OS behind a bootloader, sticking "ANDROID!!!" all over the marketing, and best of all, not having to pay a cent to Google.

I think the real culprit is Solaris but you've got the battered wife syndrome so you can't see it.

WTFPL is the best license. Hands down.

Except that it [the WTFPL] isn't licensed under the WTFPL. Meh, can't win every battle.

Lol totally... I'm normally quite nice to people on the internet, but round here I tend to be a reactionary arsehole, spewing nonsensical opinions, then refusing to back down when I'm shown to be obviously wrong. I think this can also be blamed on community server.
