Try telling it "F*** You!"

Not tempting enough to buy an iPad, just to tell it F* You...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Ah, Glasshopper, if you write reviews, you get freebies.
I bet they wished they'd looked at my review before giving me the freebie.

I don't do much of that kind of thing, because I don't like dealing with marketing morons (and my calling them that at every opportunity kinda dissuades them from asking me).
I got paid extra for that one, though, in return for a promise not to publish it elsewhere 
I can bitch about the itoy as much as I like as "just a guy on the Interwebs", but I can't make the same statements in a formal publication.

What did it do? I can't find anything on t'interweb, but that's probably more a reflection of my google-fu than anything else...

It replied, in a polite but vaguely hurt-sounding tone, "Hey, l don't think l deserve that".
Gave me the biggest laugh I've had all week.

When I tried googling this subject - to find out what telling it to would do, you understand - it became rather obvious that yes, yes it could...
Apparently you can hook something called a "fleshlight" - which I assume is not a simple one letter substitution - to your iPad and download some app or other. It's times like this that make me glad I don't own any iProducts, and clearly confirms the general view of hipsters that do.

Hi Mark,
Haven't seen you here in a while. Welcome back!
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Cheers, m'dear.
I've been off working* on a heavy project, that I promised to write twenty-odd years ago. Social niceties tend to go by the wayside, when you have to keep your head on another planet.

Are you talking about Siri?
Recently my 8 year-old had a Personal Geography Homework assignment where he had to come up with facts about every city he had lived in or visited. His 1st question was
"Can you tell me about Portsmouth please"
Siri replied
"You want to know about Horse Fleas?"

|
|
|

Jeeze, I didn't realise that Siri was that knowledgeable!

In this morning's email, I received a missive[^] from Microsoft lauding the accomplishments of female inventors. To say the least, they missed a few. They mentioned ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif) Ada Lovelace[^] , but missed others who are key to our industry  :

When is International Man's day? If it does not exist: Why not? Are women more special than men?

Quote: Are women more special than men?
No.
But nor are men more special than women.
Unfortunately not everybody sees the world that way.
Quote: It began as a massive protest by women who wanted better working conditions, better pay, and the right to vote. But since then, the holiday has evolved into a day of awareness on women's progress in the ongoing fight for gender equality, and a day to address issues across the globe that directly affect women.
