A bit amateur-hour, that.
I've spent 2 hours trying to work out why things work great for 5 page views and then die a horrible death-by-timeout for every cache call.
Several hundred lines of extra logging calls and there it was: the connection pool was being exhausted because I wasn't using a using statement.
But of course the kicker is that the original error message telling me that it was a connection pool issue had been staring me in the face all that time

Oh, you're one of THOSE guys, eh? Had one at a previous job. Only, he wrote a massive website over 5+ years, so there were undisposed SQL connections everywhere. I eventually got it all fixed up by naming the connection strings and tracking down the locations that left the most unclosed connections. Took much longer than 2 hours!

You've had a long week, these things happen ... at least it didn't get out into the outside world, where 10.46 Million members might find out. Oh...

Time to check recent posts in Weird and Wonderful forum. I guess it would have made it there.

Victim of success? or scared of legal action?
"“Popcorn Time is shutting down today. Not because we ran out of energy, commitment, focus or allies. But because we need to move on with our lives,” reads the website and a post on Medium.
Days after its quiet launch, word about the magical Popcorn Time program was everywhere. The program was an overnight success. “Popcorn Time got installed on every single country on Earth. Even the two that don’t have internet access,” reads the blog post. But success can be counterproductive. Ask Dong Nguyen, the man who created and then took down Flappy Bird.
The creators long stressed that Popcorn Time was legal. Yet I know from my own interactions with the developers that the constant questioning of the legality was taking a toll on them — a cost that they likely didn’t anticipate."

Last week my father in law explained me that he had a DVDrom with a lot of films that he stored there in DVD format (VOB...).
It seems that DVDRom died and he took it to a recovery service.
The people in that recovery service recovered only 4 films which are now stored as VOB files in a new DVD.
As in that new DVD there are only 4 VOB files the DVD player that lies under the TV can't play them...
I tried a couple of free programs to create a DVD with menus but both failed miserably...
Any idea on what software to use to be able to créate a new DVD that could be played in the DVD player?
Thank you in advance!

If you want to spare your wife the humiliation of watching those old baby-movies again, just tell FIL that it can't be done!

No, I'm just seeking revenge for some pictures and videos that I still have not found how to delete...

Try renaming *.vob to *.mpg and opening them with your preferred media player. If you can see the videos, you should then be able to burn the movies to DVD properly.
