Anyone remember Microsoft's McZee font from Creative Writer/Fine Artist? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/font-list/mczee This was my go-to many years ago!

My fav "abuse" of the system was a car park terminal that was running some flavour of Windows with an antivirus software. It had a scanner for the barcode of a ticket, but, it unde…

We are/were an early adopter. It's very promising, but, seriously buggy as of now - DNS keeps randomly dropping/leaking unreliably which was causing us issues and random drops to p…

Stripe is a nightmare and I found support to be awful and not know their own product. We are a UK company but now have clients worldwide and worldwide bank accounts (thanks to Wise…

Adyen didn't want to speak to us unless I could show ~£1M+ a year of transactions :(

I'm a Cogent customer and we wouldn't be where we are without them, but, they give me the most headaches out of any provider I have to deal with. I tried raising a complaint as the…

Except I'm not seeing anything on subscription where you already own the hardware actually being sold for cheaper!

Well... you can flash and update the firmware of a mobile connected via USB through a browser... so, not sure how accurate this is!

I recently saw Adyen and was interested, however, you need a minimum of £5M a year they told me :(

Probably the dumbest thing I've said, but, just skim read as I'm no expert and these detailed reports go over my head. Why is it such a bad vulnerability if it requires a sudo comm…

Question 19... ... Burst through the window/28, enter 16a isn't an answer :( Just skim read - interesting, thanks for sharing!

I don't think it's ready for prime time... My first card is giving me a headache trying to understand what it is doing! https://snipboard.io/AXjDS7.jpg

It's accurate.... I suck at this as much as I suck at the original.

Up until a few years ago I had to support a .Net 2 app for a global company. I had a few Windows 2000 VMs and they were a joy to use. Started in seconds - I could have LOADS of sna…

We are a very large AWS reseller and this drives me bonkers with EVERY Cloud, and I've written about this countless times. There is almost no way what so ever to limit risk and it'…

I'm curious what is being used for the drives (and to a lesser extent, memory) - Dell or OEM and how does support work? We sell a lot of Dell and for base models, it is very econom…

Can't agree enough. I'm not wealthy, but, got enough to be happy... I really wanted to treat myself to a Tesla and went to the local shop a while ago and I went out thinking - I'm …

Heh! Memories! RM Networks ~1998/1999 when I was in School... You would login and then you got their interface popup saying you were over your space allowance and clear files or yo…

Remembering the start of the film Idiocracy and how many resources have been spent on erection pills...

That sounds like a bug! Easter egg to me is a flight simulator in Excel or pinball in word etc.!

Yep - but, the iPhone came from nowhere, and, "no copy and paste" was put out by Microsoft to say how bad it was... Microsoft basically took a backwards step from Windows CE and th…

To try to convert the Batman insignia to draw on this!! Just meant to be a bit of fun!

It reminds me when I was at a user group at Microsoft for the launch of the new Windows Phone OS... ... The guy gave a long marketing speech about how "beautiful" it was, how they …

So... can anyone convert the Batman Equation to a format this site understands?!

Silly question maybe... Why didn't they just put the prize in a sterile packet and fill it with Coke like normal?! Seems like it would solve pretty much all the complaints and issu…
