I thought pirates drank rum, not gin?

Scratch that, they probably drink whatever they can steal - keep an eye on your Gordons!

Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

There's a soundrecorder[^] built into Windows.

--Edit; fixed link.

Broken link.

If it is a sound recorder, I guess you just have to screenshot 25 times a second to get the pictures as well.

John has more weapons than you do.

«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

Because many times that's the best answer.

Camstudio had already been mentioned by the time I got there, so I had nothing to add.

Welcome to the Interwebs, Newbie.

I HATE THAT!!!!!

So many times. So very, very many times.

I despair at some, laugh at others, and cry at still more.

I can only imagine it is the "Oh - I can't answer that question because I don't know the technology - but I know some related stuff, and will get points for posting!" scenario.

Drives me MAD! MAdd I tell you.

Bank feedback fail

I bank with a very, very well known bank whom I won't name. They are awful, but for complicated reasons I'm stuck with them for the moment.

They offered me a "We'd love your feedback" page, which was a mistake on their part. Or so I thought.

I filled in quite a detailed rant about the issues with their site, from security to basic speed and performance. I went to hit "submit" and it popped up a message saying "Only alphabets and numbers please". Alphabets and numbers. Right.

No full-stop/periods, no commas, no question marks or apostrophes. I couldn't even put a newline in the text box.

My mind boggles. These guys are managing my money. Seriously scary.

cheers
