Wondering why the fuck pandora STILL doesn't have the ability to cancel a thumbs-up or thumbs-down on a song that was accidental.
Also why clicking on a historical song and getting the portrait active, and thumbs-downing that thumbs down the CURRENT song instead of the song that you selected.

Yeah, that has bothered me for a long time. Well...I say "bothered," but not really very much.

-
something very much like that, yes. but they're shaped like peanut butter cookies.
i have accidentally eaten one while thinking it was a peanut butter cookie. they're not bad but was also definitely not what i was looking for!

Status: All services in the company down since Saturday. Admins notified in Saturday. Now it's Monday and nothing still works. Partners are complaining, I'm working from home because my files are trapped in git here. Boss is PISSED. Admins are in deep trouble.
-
Status: Today sucks. Wow.
-

Status: spent my morning fiddling with SharePoint, had a meeting over some more SharePoint work and will spend the rest of the afternoon with more SharePoint fooling around. Amount of code required: 0%.
-
status at work after the weekend that wasnt... i hate being on call.
-
Upgrade finished. Got this mess when logging out of Xfce before rebooting.
After reboot
- The icons on my desktop moved slightly offscreen (I think they aligned themselves with the top of monitor #2 despite being on monitor #1 which is slightly lower)
- The action button which was previously displaying the aforementioned dialog (allowing to close the session, reboot, halt, or hibernate the computer) was changed to only provide logout, I had to reconfigure it
- The top bar icons were crammed to the right, I had to reposition them
- The desktop takes much more time to show up
- My Kerberos settings were lost, apparently
- Some applications apparently moved to GTK3, but there seem to be no GTK3 theme installed, resulting in a very ugly display in those applications
But at least X still works.
Filed under: I should probably post in the rants thread

Status: Disappointed that my camping trip had to be cancelled due to severe thunderstorms.
-
What's the outcome/punishment of not meeting any?
Any quarterly profit-sharing bonus I would be entitled to is multiplied by the percentage of goals achieved. (Our bonus program is a huge WTF that I'll post about sometime after I don't work here any more.) As I understand it, achieving less than 80% automatically postpones any possible consideration for promotion. Low achievement may adversely affect one's annual performance review.

Status: amused (still) by this: Wife and I went to see The Maze Runners yesterday. We got all the way to the end (not-really-a-spoiler: it's a cliffhanger) and all off a sudden she starts cursing. "What?" asked I? "Fuckers! It's a cliffhanger!" she spitted out through gritted teeth. Ah. Dawning comprehension. "You didn't know it was a series, did you?"
Turns out, she didn't. So we bought the first couple of books to rectify the situation.
In this day and age, making people wait a year between films in a series that's already out sucks. Just put 'em out as fast as you can produce 'em, don't make me wait a year.
-
Status: Seemingly still waking up, not paying attention to when posts were done, and being stuck doing an image design task which I hate.
-
Status: trying to work out what to tackle next on the todo list.

A year's pretty fucking quick to make a feature-length movie.
I mean a lot of movie series where they do principal photography all at the same time (think: Back to the Future sequels, Lord of the Rings series, Matrix sequels) take more than a year between films just due to the editing and sfx.
