Nope, not a troll, whatever that is this week.
Just trying to get the little boys to write to be understood and not to write to try to look like a big boy who knows the bad words.

Yes, vulgar language censors, but this site is too low-brow to afford one.

RE: Convenient WTF self-contained in a single image
Far too many F-words for me to take interest in what you were saying. Trying to understand the few words between the "F"s was so difficult I gave up. Sorry. Maybe next time you can show some respect for your readers.

This website is awesome!
It's web sites like this one that gives Christianity a bad name in the minds of the unsaved. The linked web site is kin to TV preachers and their message from Satan.

RE: Google is a douche
@Xyro said:
SilentRunner, knock it off. You're not doing the Church any favors by acting like a dick.
I'm pointing out that his use of certain words detract from his message and are not to be heard in polite company. A minister of any faith could probably show him how he has erred and how he can correct his future behavior.
By the way, I'm not acting like a dick. I'm acting like someone who is offended by reading gutter language in a technical forum. It's bad enough I have to read over all that junk about SQL. Why should I also have to read offensive words? -
RE: Google is a douche
@pbean said:
So I use a setup where I run jetty through maven and I want to try out New Relic. I kinda know how to tackle this, but I decide to Google any way. First attempt:
"newrelic jetty maven" (no quotes): only results with newrelc and jetty, none of the results have "maven"
"+newrelic +jetty +maven": it tells me I'm doing it wrong, showing "results without punctuation"
"newrelic jetty maven (with quotes): nothing, to be expected
"newrelic AND jetty AND maven": ok so there are results with newrelic and jetty, and with jetty and maven, and with maven and newrelic, but still not all three
How fucking difficult can it be to just fucking display what I'm fucking searching for, or fucking telling me no such results fucking exist (note it doesn't even fucking do that with the fucking first query).
Sigh. I'm probably a retard, using the wrong keywords, and not really sure what I'm looking for. Google probably knows better what I'm looking for than I do myself. Cunts.
Yes, sir, your use of the f-word and c-word certainly indicates you are a retard. But since you seem to recognize your mental and social condition, there may be hope for you. See your local Christian minister. He can help you.

RE: Invitation to say "wtf?"
Lorne Kates, your use of the F-word does nothing to enhance your credibility or reputation. In fact, it makes you appear to be a 20-something or, worse yet, a teeny-bopper.

RE: WHO may not do this?
@FrostCat said:
Log on to my electricity company to update my payment information, as my credit card expires this month. The new card, which I've already received, has a different expiration date and CVV, but the same account number. I log in, and the old card is saved as "Payment Method 1." I click the button to edit it, and change the expiration date, hit submit, and it comes back and says "you may not use the last four digits of your credit card number in your payment method nickname. Sure enough, it's now "Payment Method 1 xxxx."
Good job, TXU Energy!
Sheesh. Another poorly written description of something.

RE: Firefox, embedded youtube, and html5
@Salamander said:
So, I have had youtube's html5 trial on for quite some time, and I noticed some completely fucked up behaviour with Firefox.
If you click on the title text of an embedded video, Firefox opens the youtube page for it in a new tab. As you would expect.
What does not make sense is if, on another completely unrelated tab, you attempt to do the same thing. It fucking replaces the window it opened earlier. Even if you have since browsed to a different place, like gmail, Firefox will happily fuck it over to load the youtube page instead.
Basically: Somewhere, somehow, Firefox is keeping single pointer to a tab it uses for html5 videos. And it will happily redirect it whenever you click on another embedded youtube video.Lizard, you need to grab a dictionary and come up with some civil words you can use. Otherwise your limited vocabulary will continue to turn off the more educated among us here.

RE: Testing is for wimps - Proof we don't need it!
@pinkduck said:
For those wondering, EPF is a file type used by Microsoft Outlook for importing/exporting digital signatures and UAT is user-acceptance testing.
And here I was thinking that UAT was "Upper Alimentary Tract", the nearest thing in a list of UATs that seemed to make sense.
When are people going to learn that not everyone is familiar with their brand of vocabulary and should always spell out an acronym before using it. (Common acronyms like "USA" and "asap" excepted.) -

I walked over and spent some time trying to explain that they should stick to coding or get some formal training if they're going to be doing database stuff.
FTFY.
The only thing worse than a code programmer that knows nothing about databases is a code programmer that believes their limited knowledge is sufficient.
I find it amusing that database "programmers" think of themselves as programmers. lol.

RE: I Don't Heart This
@Lorne Kates said:
Continuing on the theme of Hotmail is sucking more lately, I present this:
You'll notice two things:
1) The gigantic obtrusive red heart that is a non-standard character Update, this isn't a fucking character, it's an IMAGE TAG
2) This is in my FUCKING JUNK MAIL.I mean seriously, Hotmail. Are you trying to let spammers turn my junk box into this forum's tag cloud or something? What use case would allow unfettered access to stylized, coloured non-standard characters to unsolicited senders?
CORRECTION: I did a view source (so I could put the annoying character in the tags, of course), and found out it's not a Unicode character. It's a goddamn image tag:
<img class="Emoji$02665$15BC" alt="Black heart (cards)" title="Black heart (cards)" src="https://redacted.hotmail.com/mail/w4/pr04/ltr/emoji/emoji_02665.gif">
Holy Buddah-fucking Christ! You're fucking allowing unsolicited senders to put goddamn IMAGES in SUBJECT LINES?
Fuck's sake.
Lorne Kates, you have an extremely limited vocabulary which is tilted heavily toward the obscene and blasphemy. Take your...excuse the word, please...shit someplace else.

RE: Comments that piss me off
Many times I like to label blocks of code within a source file. Most times the labels succinctly describe the blocks. (With the labels I can quickly scan down through the file to find what I'm looking for.) But sometimes the labels may seem redundant...like "throw exception".

RE: Tradition!
"They are just as fictional as Santa Claus..."
Santa Claus is not fictional, although many of his modern attributes are.
Mr. Claus is based on a kind gentleman called Saint Nicholas who lived somewhere in Asia Minor a couple of thousands of years ago. Nicholas would deliver goodies to the poor at Christmas time.'Bout time you "programmers" did a little history reading.

You'll also be sure all your data and applications won't be "in them".

TRWTF here is that you have Internet Explorer pinned on your start menu
Not that unusual really. Every once in a while I still come across a website that works beter in IE than Firefox. It's a lot more rare than it used to be, but it still happens. Especialy with government websties. @LegacyCrono said:Or maybe TRWTF is Vista?
Go easy on him. It's not easy being one of the seven people using Vista. It got a bad rap but actually wasn't nearly as bad as everyone claimed.1) I've tried Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera. There was nothing there to entice me to give up Internet Explorer 9. So I continue to use IE. (I follow my gut, not the crowd.)
2) When I upgraded to a new computer a few years ago the only OS on them was Vista. So I ended up with Vista on my new computer. Go figure.
I, like a lot of other people who frequent The Daily WFT, are tired of the jabs at Microsoft. If it wasn't for Microsoft, people, you'd be playing some dumb game on your updated Commodore 64.

RE: Apple! Do you speak it?
@Master Chief said:
Here in Wisconsin in the old US of A, Scott Walker (our Governor) ran on a platform of cutting down union pensions and balancing the budget while keeping services intact.
He got elected, cut down union pensions, and balanced the budget keeping the vast majority of services completely unchanged.
He's up for recall now.
He'll lose, of course. The unions will vastly outspend the opposition and the comatose electorate will vote him out.

As far as I know, and as far as politician's promises are concerned, they are always void after the election.
But just to keep you on your toes, once in a lifetime (or there abouts) one of them will mess with you by doing what they said.
We had a state governor who campaigned on the promise of building a downtown stadium and improving the highway to the beach.
Not a terribly ambitious platform - but he actually did those two things - and not a lot else.
He succeeded in doing that because it bought him votes. Building circuses always works for politicians.

RE: The most complicated captcha, ever. Maybe.
I don't understand why a noun is being used as a verb. "Login" is the act of logging in. The verb is "log in" or "log into".

RE: New Japanese Cars
Maybe I should reword what I posted earlier.
The late 1950s is the last time you could point to a car and say it was a Chevy, a Ford, a Plymouth, a Chrysler, a Cadillac, a Lincoln, a Mercury or a Studebaker.
They actually looked differently from one another. Nowadays, you gotta get up close and read the nameplate...if it has one.

The C language was the apex of computer language development. The travesty called C++ proves my point.

RE: New Japanese Cars
Pictures to show us would have been especially nice. Without the pictures I have no idea what any of what you're saying means.
Automobile design has been downhill ever since the late 1950s. That's the last time you could tell who manufactured the car just by looking at it.
