I will have to go out on a field. Just look for yourself: Flying with the old T-Rex 550[^].

Even in the simulator they fly just great. Did you have the opportunity to fly one of the bigger ones?

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

No, the biggest Ive flown is my old one (230). I prefer the 700 on the simulator because its bigger and easier to see when it a little farther away. Also seems more stable then the 450 models.
Since my last one broke I havent been doing much flyng (just my little TRex 150 last weekend and thats about it.) Its winter here so I was going to waiting until spring and my birthday for my bigger replacement. Lucky I can just go out side and fly on my 1 acre block of land, and hence why I'm contemplating the 470. (big enough but not to big for my section)

Exactly, plus some more motor power. My 450s are fine, but since I got that old 550 they just don't see as much action anymore.
Actually I don't really want to get rid of the 550. It's a great model. When something breaks, you might use a part from the current version, but often you have to replace other parts as well, otherwise it will not fit. In the end you have to rebuild the entire helicopter, one part after another.

Quote: Holy crap! It works!
For a while now I've been meaning to update one of my WinForms applications at work.
It has a TabControl and each TabPage connects to a different database (SQL Server via Integrated Security; not SQL Authentication) to gather some information and present it.
BUT! I need to use three different users to connect to different systems and I don't like having to run an instance of the app for each user.
Each TabPage was already using its own Thread for database access, so I figured I should be able to use Impersonation.
And I got it working today! ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)
I use LogonUser (Win32 API P/Invoke) and create a System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity, then I pass the Identity to the appropriate TabPage's UserControl.
Thereafter, whenever the UserControl wants to access the database, it uses Impersonate.
(I'd still prefer something cleaner, but this seems to work as expected. Though I wouldn't be surprised if there's an Earth-shattering Kaboom in my future.)

Good Job!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Also, nice Marvin Martian reference!

Actually non-user "service" accounts that all the devs my trusted colleagues share.

Well, I'm a dev and no one has shared these with me.
Share away... 
These service accounts do include Netflix access, right?

As long as you're aware that anyone can decompile your code to get those credentials 
|
|
|
|
|

Doesn't matter...wherever and however you store them the decompile will tell someone how to get them. Even if you encrypt them the method and keys will be in your code\config.

No, the user names are in the config; the app prompts for the passwords.

That actually sounds about as clean as it can get, given what you have to work with and the restrictions in place.
The app I work on at work (well, I only work on a very small part of it) needs to do impersonation in a few key places, and the library "we" (not "I") put together relies on exactly that. I've never studied the implementation all that closely to understand it, but I do recall seeing some rather exhaustive and nasty-looking error-handling and fallback code, with P/Invoke added in there to muddy the waters. That code's evolved over a period of 10+ years, so I can only imagine the feeling when you got it working...

We really should not do it this way. But, Sometimes things have to be done in order to please the overlords.
True discussion today. Same everywhere.
To err is human to really mess up you need a computer

Having been an "overlord" I have learned that, like personal relationships, stuff like this is always due to poor communication -- usually on both sides of the fence.

I had the dubious pleasure of working for some 'overlords' who had lost their grasp on reality. Their expectations were absolutely unrealistic, given the poor shape of their projects and they never realized that it was their precious way of micromanaging things that led to this poor quality.

Totally agree. There are bad managers out there just like there are bad devs out there. Micromanagement is usually the result of feeling out of control of the situation so they have to over-compensate. And that tends to happen when people have no idea what they're doing. Me still thinks the best managers used to be devs, that way they have a clue what's going on. But, I digress.
