At least you'd get the chance to say "Shall we try a glass of this with dessert?"
The best result I could have is to spot a fibre that's been shoved in the wrong switch port, and the happy discussion that could ensue on RSTP failures.

Note to self: be sure to delete / transfer / otherwise remove pictures of lovely girlfriend taken during the week prior to Sunday or plan on making appointment with divorce lawyer.

Good idea!
And you can do it safely, too, because google, dropbox, the NSA, and all their uncles will all keep back-up copies for you!

Why did you have to say you missed* the rain[^]?
Thursday and Friday were total wash outs and a lot of roads have been damaged around here with drains bursting and the roads collapsing on top. The biggest I know of is a good 5m long taking out the main highway near where we live. I now have to try and find a back-up, back-up route for school as this morning was another marathon 3 hour round trip!
Today looks sunny though and, if Mrs Wife fancies it, it may be good enough for a late afternoon swim in the Med. Swings and roundabouts, innit.
Hows your Sunday?

Yesterday was sunny, 60's, and my gf and I took a lovely walk by the Hudson River.
This morning, there's 3 inches of snow on the ground!

No snow here, it's in the high teens today after the weekend of biblical rain. Some locals say you can have 4 seasons in a day here.

Oh, just peachy.
As well as a lovely meal, backdropped by photos of spaghetti wiring, I have recreation of all my virtual drives to look forward to, because windows, for very wise reasons, obviously, decided that I didn't need them.

Nice title...took me a second to realize which Toto you were referring to! BTW, I remember a few years back Dave Auld posted a video to that song.

It was one degree over freezing this morning, will be low '70sF by afternoon. The job of the day is to crawl around in the attic and run new cable for TV in an upstairs bedroom that sees company maybe 10 days/nights a year...otherwise the kids fight over the other room that already has a TV.  I just do what I'm told! I'd rather be coding!

How about installing Linux and MonoDev? Apple, Google, Mickeysoft: Put them in a bag and beat the bag with a club. You will always hit one who deserves it.

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

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

lol Microsoft is still gonna win cuz they 'buying out' Linux soon! hehe. Just kidding
But did you notice the other news[^] ? They are getting involved more there, towards Linux/open-source. They might escape from your bag!

No. They are too desperate to crawl into the same bag where the others already are waiting. This way the Muggles are going to get the companies they deserve and the companies are getting the customers they deserve. They will probably have a hard time to sneak their MuggleControl (C)(TM) mal- and spyware into open source.

Why doesn't ms do something for its core users, for a change, rather than for people who fanny around on other operating systems, or on devices other than desktops/laptops?
Their whole strategy seems to be built around stealing users from other markets, but in doing so, they're losing the biggest market share in the biggest market of all of them.

Microsoft slipped out of the stage long ago. Apple & Google have been enjoying the limelight & glory for so long now.
I'd always love to see equal competition. To have an equal competition, other parties need some entry first. Microsoft has really slipped into this "other parties" category. The whole product trend buzz that you see now, right from Audrino-IoTs, iphones , Macs, Android, Apps, Chrome to Node.js, AWS. MS looked totally irrelevant with their counterparts. Almost all of their products were thrown out of competition. ie From Windows Phone, Windows Desktops, Internet Explorer, & even Azure (Few years ago). Even the tiny little MSN messenger was not spared. It was like a genocide.
MS entered most arena as an underdog and many cases died as an underdog. Remember Zune? there's many more to quote. They failed to make the buzz. We could blame it to the big fat leaderships of Balmer & partners like Stephen Elop. They never understood what user & market wanted and seemed to follow their bureaucratic legacy. They lost it all ultimately.

Now all of a sudden nobody can build a new eco-system from scratch and expect the user to jump to. They can't also go back to their products that never clicked. In fact, They did try to do something on their own like the Windows Phone. Nothing worked out.
So now, I feel they are trying to work together with other platforms than to work all alone & establish something only to fail again. Working well with current platforms of other market leaders guarantee their survival & relevance for now. Once they managed to float around , may be they'll start pushing for more individualistic products & make genuine user base.
