Now I'm just waiting for a response about Real Men and Windows.

Recently I took a look at this website[^].
My old computer is just the same model. His idea to hook up the little serial to USB board is interesting. No MAX232, just hooking up said CPU signals to the converter and on the software side everything stays as it was for the last 37 years.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I seem to have the opposite problem...working from home today and have no problems with my stuff, however the same cannot be said for the Mrs. which meant that I had to spend over an hour this morning trying to resolve wireless issues with her work laptop and wireless printer. In the meantime, she wants to listen to iTunes on her all-in-one desktop system only to get an error message about missing files...it was working yesterday. Option two for music: use the iheartradio app...try it and it closes immediately without a message...just won't run.  Option 3 for music: wmp if I can find it...ok, that works. The all-in-one could access the printer, but not the laptop...the laptop could access the materials she needed to print (vpn), but the all-in-one could not, even through their web based system, erroring out with a 'resource not found'...blah, blah.  In the end, she emailed them to me and I printed them for her.
On a side note, it really pains me watching the way she (the mrs.) goes about trying to solve a problem. She is quick to click on the first option that appears without reading it at all, which is what caused the problem connecting to the printer in the first place...she had somehow set the home wireless network to Public, cutting off access to other network devices! It still irritates me that the printer does not have an Ethernet connection.

An HDD is cheaper.
And quicker.
And safer.

I am not talking about storage but for other purposes like hosting your site for demo etc.

OK.

The thing here is that I'm being an awkward bugger, but you're not.

That's some serious thinking outside the box right there. This is encouraging me to start using my brain again. It felt really weird doing that, but quite nice. I'm going to try it again in a week or so.

How could he. Someone else has drank it all.

I know that Hungarians have a large capacity for booze .... and Nagy has more than most other Hungarians, but even he can't quite account for all of Gordon's output (a significant percentage perhaps)!

Aaaah, Nagy's dream job. He's been trying for it for years, but he can't afford to pay what they're asking.

But he already is paying for it at retail rates.
The real problem is that they wouldn't let him drink 100% of the product.

But they'd have recover the lost revenue (I'm pretty sure he doesn't pay retail - Gordon's invoices directly and there's actually a pipeline [who needs bottles?])

OK, so it's my turn to do the WSOCCC on monday.
but waht about all you poor souls who are working on the weekend, or who don't have anything better to do?
Or even you just have a slow Friday?!
Well, I wanted to use this clue, but it kinda sorta breaks the rules a little, so it's a freebie for the weekend.
If you get the answer, it will be so obvious you have it right, you might want to hold off posting the solution to let others have a go!

Clue 1.
As I said, it breaks the rules. One of the rules is 'No Proper Names'.

Seing that the badger hunting season is almost coming to an end here in Sweden, my initial reply would be: All the ![Badger | [badger,badger,badger,badger...]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/badger.gif) that are left - but it doesn't fit the letter count... So I guess I dunno!

I've added a clue - which may or may not help.
