AdminPosting rules for The Lounge [modified]adminChris Maunder2 Jul '11 - 15:48 
1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
 
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
 
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
 
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
 
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions. Or if you must, use the Back Room[^] - but enter at your own risk.
 
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen. For those discussions where you wish to be a little more frank, use the Soapbox[^]
 
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
 
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
 
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
 
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,
Chris Maunder

GeneralWow Karl!memberwizardzz2mins ago 
Member Karl Sanford posted that video he made of photos taken by Curiosity on Mars.
 
NASA and JPL have noticed.
https://www.facebook.com/MarsCuriosity[^]
 
They shared it on facebook and it went over well; 30k views, 1600+ likes, 300+ shares and some nice comments in just 7 hours.
 
I tweeted it to Curiosity early on, no response, but at least the video eventually got their attention.
 
Thumbs Up | :thumbsup: Thumbs Up | :thumbsup: Karl

GeneralBrowser Testing Fail [modified]protectorAspDotNetDev3hrs 40mins ago

This site is supposed to help you test your websites in multiple browsers.
 
Based on this, I'd say they aren't using their own tools (IE9 on the top, Chrome on the bottom). Look at the dog ear at the top right of each browser. Not exactly graceful degradation. D'Oh! | :doh:
