I'm sure I've seen spam emails suggesting a solution to that.

Not always. And, I already worked there when they introduced the "new" policy.

Yes, because the option of the administrators knowing their jobs isn't ever going to happen.

'Repost' is also a repost.

My favourite is the security question where a valid answer is invalid!
Stupid Security: What colour was your first car?
Me: Blue
Stupid Security: Sorry, your answer must contain at least 6 characters.
Me: OK, my first car was "F-ck Off!" coloured!

That is an odd security question since there are only about 10 expected possible answers.
Perfect example of an inconvenience introduced in the name of security that has no benefit.

More than ten, Shirley.
I had a Ford Ka whose colour was Karome, for example.

My favorite is when they force me to pick from a set of canned insecurity questions that I have no possible legitimate answer to.
ex "What is your favorite sports team" - "none! the tax swilling vermin sucking as the public teat should die in a fire for wasting my money on enormous new boondogles that despite their lies never actually earn out the amount of money they extorted from the govt."
"what is your favorite niece's name" - "not that it's any of your elephanting business; but unless they're not telling me something none of my siblings have children."
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I've got some sites I have to visit occasionally. Maybe 3, 4 times a year.
Of course, the passwords expire every 60 days.
So I have to create a new password every single time I go to those sites.
Sigh.

Is it just me who gets irritated by the fact that all google search results provide links which go via google? These links seem to pause for a couple of seconds (yeah I know....) before going to wherever it is I want them to go. It just seems to be getting noticeably slower.
|
|

|

That's because Google indexes the page hits, and also most likely adds the clicked link to your personal search history.

I quit Google for this reason; since a few weeks now it becomes very difficult to browse the results, especially if you have some Adblock-like extensions on your browser.

Reboot();

I tried that a while back. It was so-so a the time but I ended up going back to the evil google at some point. Can't recall why.
Think I will give it another go though.

Tried them a while back and got mediocre at best results. Went back to Bing. (I'm free of Google.)

I adopted this one

It's actually kind of funny. A long, long, time ago (ok not that long but early Google) I wanted to work for Google. With an unimpressive résumé at the time I figured the best way to get the job was to author a search engine that had a unique feature they didn't have. This was the feature I chose.
Unfortunately, I never finished the project. Got a job : )

It works fine for me. It does what it says and I don't care about the rest as I have it adblocked away.
PS. I have specifically excluded CodeProject from being blocked as I think we need to make sure we support our favourite site.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I have two coupons available for CodeProject's collaboration or beta testing projects. Any serious developer interested in joining?
|
|

|

I also have two, but I'm saving them for if I decide to create a sock puppet...
