Well yes you are right but how does this feel like poker? Im just posting my fitness data and compare it to other players. Why would i go for reducing my heartrate? Doom is set in the Horror Genre which means your heartrate should go up and you should be scared and sh.. your pants.
So i actually see no benefit for this genre, with another game this system might be more usefull.

else

MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

Since a few days I intermittently receive hundreds of spam every hours! (a few thousands a day!)
It was ok this weekend, strangely enough, spammers took the weekend off.
Arguably I own a domain with a catch all email (which I just deactivated).
I wonder if anyone else is experiencing some similar plight?
|

Nope - I've had three junk emails today, and none of them are "unexpected spam": all from places I've signed up for to buy something.
Best stop visiting those naughty sites!

Not here...
The spamassassin in our server works very well...
|
|

|

Mmm... I need one of those!

Probably your mail server has one... sometimes they have it disabled by default.
Once you activate it... it starts killing spam.

Yes.
I admit that I too, take weekends off.

Email spam is normal. (10 or so daily, mostly getting sent straight to the junk folder)
What I have noticed is smarter bots hitting my home/office webserver. Somehow they are now able to construct query strings for dynamic pages.  (googlebot is a culprit) Not only are the query string parameters named correctly, the format for the value is correct. (if I'm expecting a 7 digit numeric customer code, the requests are 7 random digits, if I'm expecting a state abbrev., the request is a valid state abbrev.)
The only way I can figure they are able to do this is by stealing it from a user's (probably mine!) local cache.
I've since enabled url rewrites for the bots that are abusive. I don't mind them indexing my static content, but trolling for data is not cool. After reviewing my web server logs today, I have given up an disallowed all bots from the entire server. We'll see how much this stops the abuse...

That might be what happened..
I did an experimental "contact" page on my never visited (or so I thought) web page!

I have spent the last four hours trying to get BitBlt to work to the display from a large bitmap in C# (preview 100x100 pixel image thumbnails from a 3200x3200 bitmap) and going round in circles because all I get is black rectangles. And I keep finding bits on Google which tell me to use SelectObject on the DC, using the bitmap handle, and I can't get that to work because I can't call GetHbitmap on the image, and...
... then I realise that my large bitmap is declared as
private Image big = ... rather than
private Bitmap big = ...
The second definition lets me call GetHbitmap on the image, and pass it to SelectObject ... and it all works, brilliantly... 
Maybe I need a continuous intravenous drip of caffeine?

There is irrefutable proof* that Caffeine Driven Development is the way forward!

You're really trying to make this a thing. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

But, but, but...
It is a thing, look[^]. Okay, AJ, myself and few other people use it, but it is still a thing already.

Wouldn't be too hard on myself if I were you. Nothing is really obvious when working with BitBlt...

That's what you get for not posting your problem in QA... 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
