Status: Double-checking the details of my EA account, and the date of birth was wrong; it was set to 2nd June 1986.
Why did my EA profile have @accalia's date of birth?

-
What makes it even weirder is I set up my EA account in 2011; I didn't know @accalia until Sept-Oct last year!
-
@accalia is you, Urchin. You invented her. You invented her before 2011, but your host personality and her didn't become aware of each other until last year. You must have 'switched' one time when logged into your EA account, and she put her details in.

A certain movie comes to mind...

*Bites Onyx's ankles*A certain movie comes to mind...
What movie is that?
With that first quote, after filling in the : facepunch : because quote reply ignores emoji, and moving the cursor to the end of the [/quote], return wouldn't give me a new line but jumped to the end of the quote inside the tags. Seems to be if you move the cursor after typing an emoji, with the suggestion box up, it doesn't register the move if the next thing you type is a newline. Is this a known bug?

I was thinking Face/Off, but now I'm wondering if he actually meant Freaky Friday. Or something else entirely.

Ah, I haven't seen either of those.

These are connected. I was attempting slight spoiler avoidance.

Both of these are wrong, btw.

It's always violence with you. I am not sure that I approve.

I have in no way said nor implied that was directed at you. Now read the spoilered bit in your post again, then try re-interpreting that "Filed under" within that context.

Yes I know, I'm just being silly. I kinda thought writing that I bit your ankles over the internet was a sufficiently obviously silly thing?

And I kinda thought that my general attitude displayed on this forum will be enough to infer that I don't get easily offended by the stuff on the Internet and that I'm just messing with you.

And I kinda thought that my general attitude displayed on this forum will be enough to infer that ... I'm just messing with you.
Probably is to anyone less spectacularly bad at knowing when they're being messed with than me.

I was surprised that I got in. We usually have the problem after summertime adjustment that you charge your card at, say 08:00, and when you get to your office door it tells you (since it is battery powered and oblivious to STA) that "I wont fall for that one: it's only seven o'clock, you can't have charged your card in the future."

My coworker was on a smoke break and hers worked. I assume I got too close to a magnet or some crap because my Windows login works fine >.>

That's why it's a good idea to keep a wrecking bar nearby.

Status: I tried Half-Life 2: Update last night for the community commentary. It starts with some guy saying he made the mod and then another guy saying that they're not calling it a developer commentary because reasons. Then everything past that was commentary about how the game design worked by people with better talking-into-a-microphone skills. I got up to Black Mesa East and then noticed it was past midnight and decided to go to bed.
Also, for some reason, my speakers randomly stop producing sound unless I turn them up above a certain threshold. And that threshold changes randomly. I've checked the cables - they all seem to be in properly - so I think my speakers might be going.

I cut myself on a potato salad container a few days ago.

I used to have a speaker set like that, I think it was simply a design limitation since the threshold never changed. I guess speaker manufacturers don't consider customers who want the sound just loud enough to hear, rather than blowing the walls out and shaking the neighborhood.

On my first reading of this post, my mind somehow missed the word "container".
Getting cut by a potato salad does sound like something that would happen in Dwarf Fortress.

Status: absolutely fucking tired of all the software fragility, all the hardware problems, and all the fucking things I ever use breaking down.
I was playing on my "fancy" Moto G and it shut off suddenly. Turns out it was at 0% battery and the sensor had bugged once again, not warning me. OK. Charged it, turned it on. Crash. All apps crash. Error messages continuously appearing, making the phone unusable. Recovery mode no worko. Factory reset no worko either. HOW CAN ONE SHUTDOWN CORRUPT AN OS TO THIS FUCKING LEVEL??!?!?!?!?!?!?! I want laws that anyone that ever sells broken hardware or software has to pay 5x its cost back to every customer.
I'm hoping flashing with USB cable will work. Barring that, I hope Amazon will take it back.

Activation e-mail not coming through.
i have got good luck by trying to log in and clicking send me activation email several times before...
maybe that will work if PJH has been at the pub for a while?

Yes, that's 2 IntelliJ IDEA processes. With full size Tomcat projects loaded. In memory. Yes, Discourse has them beat by 20 meg. EFFICIENCY! JAVASCRIPT!
I killed the process and reloaded about 5 seconds before that screenshot too.
