I get a slightly different error message:
Quote: /Articles/103184/KB/Blogs/103184/BitmapSample.zip appears to be missing on our servers. D'oh.
And the "browse code" link shows:
Quote: No downloads associated with this content
The download link in the original blog post appears to be broken as well, so it's possible it may never have worked.

Thanks very much for the report. I've emailed the author to see if they keep very old backups so we can replace the file.
Thanks,

It's something specific to those two, or deleting - I just let three message through and they worked fine.

It is the specific messages: I just deleted a spam message from an essay writing service, and that went without problems.
The two others in moderation still give Hungry Hamsters.

Don't know if this is just me but trying the download the source from CalcStar: A C++ Math Expression Evaluator[^] is super slow and eventually times out - repeatedly.
Just a heads-up...
ps. Same trying to download the source from ToDoList.
pps. Sydney, Australia - if that makes any difference

Chris is always complaining about the quality of the Aus internet service, and the governments redefinition of high-speed.
Most of the time when he is there and has a large transfer to make, he will use his phone as a hot spot as it is faster, and more reliable, than the wire-to-house 'high-speed🤑' connection.

I have particular Apps or Webs always in Dark Mode and the rest I trust in F.Lux to reduce the light and the eye strain at noon / night.
But there are days where I activate it on purpose.
What would mean, I would have selected a mix of answers 3, 4, and 6.

It's a bit late now and I did go back and forth on whether I'd do multiple choice. The issue is in this particular poll a multiple choice answer would allow totally contradictory answers. We have the ability to have a single choice override others (ie you pick option X, and that then means no other options will be counted in your vote), but we don't have "If X, then Y isn't allowed, if Z then W isn't allowed etc)"
These things are never perfect. They are simply there to get a rough gauge of how everyone is feeling and provide a chance to discuss. But your point is understood.

I have DevOps questions. Where should they be posted?
|
|
|
|
|
|
DevOps stuff should be posted to /dev/null. 
But what do you mean by DevOps? I've heard rather different definitions.
I guessing that the Application Lifecycle[^] forum would be most appropriate.

I just tested the option because of message below...
When "Treat my content as plain text, not HTML" then the signature gets up into the edit box and it disappeared of the "signature" field in later edits.
Deactivating the option and copying the signature back to its field doesn't make any change if you leave empty spaces or carriage returns at the end of the message. If you delete everything until the last written letter / symbol, then the signature gets shown properly again.
Is that correct?

If your message is plain text then it's assumed it's truly plain text: no HTML, and everything in it will be HTML encoded when viewed. This means we can't add markers into the message that allow us to pull out the signature when you edit the message.
eg for me, the HTML is
...message text...
<div class="signature">cheers<br>
Chris Maunder</div>
So when we edit a message I post, the DIV with class "signature" allows us to pull out the sig and put it in the signature box.
In text mode the message is just
...message text...
cheers

I'm sure we could use a little AI to pull out signatures from plain text, but it's way too much work
cheers

A spammy member report in S&A: Spammer from moderation queue (Red&White)[^]
Shows as:
If you edit the post, it looks like this:
Which is a bit inconsistent ...

I have clicked on "edit" and then to "OK" without changing anything and it didn't happen to me.
Can you re-edit without changing anything to see if it is consistent for you?
Have you the "encode html" active in your settings?
