RE: Career advice (AKA am I being a dick?)
What was your reason for you giving your management, who are clearly just as big idiots as your client, any choice in the matter?
In general, issuing an ultimatum like this is a waste of time and energy, because it's usually impossible afterwards, no matter what, to create a happy working atmosphere. There's really no point to going on working at a place that makes you miserable.
My personal inclination (which I have actually carried out occasionally) is to fix myself up with something else to go to, then tell my team why I'm going, and then enjoy telling my boss that he's been dumped.

RE: In your face website design
"gives you the control you need"...I couldn't stand looking at more than a handful of the photos they imply were taken with this lens - none of them were in focus.
Yeah, I can already do out-of-focus pics with the equipment I've already got.

RE: We should number the firefox-threads or sth.
Since our thread on Firefox Australis [url]http://forums.thedailywtf.com/forums/t/30182.aspx[/url]
I have gone over to SeaMonkey [url]http://www.seamonkey-project.org/[/url] which is Firefox but wth the old UI. All my plugins work (AdBlock, Session Manager etc).
Bye bye, Firefox - you've been dumped. No, we can't"just be friends".

RE: Did I miss the thread about the new Firefox redesign?
Thanks for the warning, everybody. So I just tuned off attomatic updating in Firefox options. I will never allow the Atlantis update.
In other news, what non-fucked-up browser should we move to when Atlantis comes out?

RE: Xerox scanners/photocopiers randomly alter numbers in scanned documents
Lossy compression is lossy. Film at eleven.
Person who did not read TFA misses whole point. Film at 11.

RE: Anonymization
Definitely time for a public execution.
And I note that your score is two down, two to go. Darwinian selection implies that the two remaining DBAs will be tougher to kill, leading to even more spectacular stories. We wait with bated breath.
