I think the average neanderthal would not agree that that sort of behaviour is typical for them.
It probably takes a more modern idiot to do all of that.

I equate soccer/football and any sport that involves a ball or two ( ) to the game of golf. You basically move a ball in a direction, and then go after it -- over, and over, and over, and over.
And in some areas around the world, fans get hurt and some, eve die for this.

I believe Roy made a tactical decision to come second so as to play a lesser team in the next round. Smart.

Never mind sport. It's really bad here. It's the shortest day of the year and colder than Scottish summer

If it's any consolation, it's the Longest Day today and it's only 17C here...

My Casio Scientific Calculator just updated itself to Windows 10 and now the solar power panel isn't working.

No problem! You can download drivers for it from http://driversnotfromnigeriahonestly.com.

The solar panel was another thing recovered (ALONG WITH FIBER OPTICS CATHODE RAY TUBES EBRIUM DOPED AMPLIFIERS FIBER GEN3+ NVG ETC) when roswell crashed as aliens discovered evil creatures would cover the earth after WWII's conclusion and attempted to escape from Europe where they had introduce the renaissance Christianity and industrial revolution then attempt their final plan in 1940 but the forces of God intervened with angels from heaven and their knowledge with nuclear

So I went home for lunch. The PC's 54% updated to Win 10. Can't wait for it to finish....

so I can use System Restore to remove it.

You might want to look at this[^], regardless of whether you get back to Win 7 or not, but it keeps this crap from happening.
You have to undo it to get updates but you can pick and choose them at this point.

I'm just curious to know how everyone else here deals with poorly written code in pre-existing projects. Now, I'll be the first to say in my day I've written crap, so who am I to judge right? But, over the decades of development I've done, I'd like to at least think I've learned what crap is and what's it's not. And as such, I find myself in a position at a job I've been at since mid February, where I tend to complain a lot - because the quality of code is so poor it's just sad. But, I complain because I want to see it improve.
Seeing that nobody wants to be told their code sucks (even if it's true), I've been labeled a bit of a complainer unfortunately. And while I get that, the fact remains, the code is actually not that great. Which is pretty evident by virtue of the fact they always have problems with it. Well duh, I wonder why. But who wants to be the party pooper right?
Whatever the case, my manager is getting fairly tired of hearing me complain, which is a bit of a downer since I've only been doing it because some things needs to be addressed to make our projects top quality. So, is there some fancy judo mind trick to get my point through, or must I accept you cannot fit a square peg into a round hole, and if people don't care about the quality of their work then you can't force them to?

I'm very meticulous about the code I write.
I always use regions, and I use the same regions in the same order in every class. This way I know exactly where code parts are.
Also, all of my class members are listed alphabetically in their regions.
When I see bad code, I schedule it for a refactor. I'm actually sitting here right now refactoring some offshore code. These guys just throw code in anywhere and its annoying and flat out lazy.
Unlike you, my manager is totally on board with me cleaning up the code.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Let me put it to you like this, the people running this show have probably never refactored anything in their life. And I seriously doubt they know what that is without googling it.

Because there are some great people here, but most of them aren't technical at all.

You might be right. It's not really fulfilling me on a tech level.
