I prefer to label mine with "Latest" since I don't know if it will be "final."

Which one is the final document? It must be the one named:
document - REALLY FINAL - and we mean it this time.doc
|
|
|
|
|
For most documents I create and work on I name them like this: document.YYYY.MM.DD.docx
Then I move older copies to a subfolder called archive. This has saved my bacon more than once. They also sort out quite nicely in windows explorer.
I gave up long ago calling them final or rev 1 or rev 2, until actually officially released.
I work in an engineering firm, and we do have an official document repository. When it's placed there it really is a certain version. then I can name my working file to correspond to the "publishe" official version.

I've been known to produce documents like that, but I use a script that renames the files when a new version is added.

How about a pile of disks that have the name of the program and "LATEST" written on them?

I get a couple of items of spam a week, which are "bounced" from my hosts as "undeliverable":
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients And the recipient is one of my old email addresses on a previous domain. I've wondered exactly what is going on, but haven't worried too much because none of the message send logs show any sign of the message, the passwords are unchanged, and changing them doesn't do anything. Until today when I had a thought: what if it's one of the forwarded accounts?
I have a couple of accounts which are there to soak up rubbish: DontSendMeAnyCr*p@MyDomain.com (forwarding: direct to bin) and so forth, and I have a couple with forwarding enabled to send them through to my primary address: Webmaster@MyDomain.com, Sales@MyDomain.com and suchlike. So I had a trawl through the accounts - which is a slow process as I have to open each one in turn, and they won't open in a new tab either.
And sure enough there is just one email address that is forwarded to that email. And it's one of my "specific purpose" email address - ones I create for a specific company to reply to so they don't fill me with drivel if they sell it: I can just close the email account and say "stuff you".

Certainly don't want any unlicenced TVs wandering around the UK, do we?
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

They have men in vans driving round to prevent it!
Or at least, they used to - in the days of CRTs when you could detect a TV from the coil emissions (and even tell what was being watched). With modern LCDs I suspect Detector Vans have been replaced with a computer list of unlicensed premises and a man with a telephone headset.

Exactly, the Vans got withdrew when LCR power supplies were commonly used in other things (such as microwaves) and the snobby 'I haven't got a TV' types all started to computer monitors. A friend of my Dads was very snobby about TV's and only bought a Mono (amber) Monitor and had the detector van turn up outside his house at least once a month...Jobsite haven't checked that one yet!

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Mostly because they didn't read it.
Or their cell phone signal in America was a single bar, unlike those in Afghan caves that can upload video.

Anyone else keep their profile pics semi up-to-date up in this joint? I see some that have been the same for over a decade or are cartoons. That's no fun. People wanna see what people look like. Nothing says "I never get out of the house" like having no picture to show for yourself. Where they be hiding?

I disagree. I think for a few people at least, showing your own face confirms any suspicions that they never get out of the house.

Or they do not want to be recognized.

To answer your question... no.

I still have my Les Paul, and it looks the same. No need for a new profile pic. 
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Not really. I rarely, if ever, look at anyone else's picture and presume that others are just as disinterested in me though I will confess that my profile picture is really me.

How can you be disinterested in people? They're useful and stuff.

You said "just as", it's implied yo.

I was referring to the pictures, not the people!

Same difference man. Can't really be interested in people and not be interesting in seeing them.

You may know and even like some of these people.
People [^]
but do you really want to see their pictures?

I haven't changed my profile picture in nearly a decade, that's true. But I haven't changed in my appearance for nearly a decade and I still wear the same shirt and tie (I'll need to wash it soon).
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
