1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

Yep, I just tested negative for Covid!
I am free to leave the house ... but I don't want to go anywhere, particularly.

I have up to now, remained Covid free, by being generally unsociable. I for one found the lock down a chance to catch up with 'jobs' like decorating, plumbing ('naa, Gaffer tape will hold it' until I get chance)...

Open your eyes, open your mind
Proud like a god, don't pretend to be blind
Trapped in yourself, break out instead
Beat the machine that works in your head

Crows are a bit limited: have you considered sharks? With frickin laser beams attached to their heads?

If I had an army of crows I'd make a point to have some.

I don't usually play favorites, but for crows I have made and exception.
This article has increased my admiration for them manyfold.

I've always loved crows. Really, most scavenging animals. Raccoons, rats, etc. They are generally very curious and clever. They tend to have personality for days.

I always thought a murder is the best solution for enemies.
EDIT: of crows! A murder of crows!

I overslept by an hour this morning.
On the other hand: When (/if) I wake up at the proper time tomorrow, the daylight will give me a feeling of morning rather than mid-day

But I did loose an hour last night, from 02:00 to 03:00! Who should I go to complain to? Darwin isn't around any more.

I totally agree ... I prefer to stay in UTC+1 all year.
I think that everyone is tired of complaining about these dancing clocks ...
We need to do better
