    I experienced the WORST customer service today at a store in town

    I don't want to mention the name of the store because I'm not sure how I'm going to proceed. Friday I bought something from this store. I paid cash for it. Got home and found out it didn't work. So I took it back to the store and asked if I could get a refund. The girl in the store told me “NO” even though I still had the receipt. I asked if I could get a replacement instead then. Again this person told me "NO." I asked to talk to a manager now as I'm really not happy and I explained that I had just bought the item, had got it home and it didn't work. The manager just smiled and told me to my face that I was "OUT OF LUCK." No refund. No FREE replacement. Grrrrrrrrr. I'll NEVER buy another lottery ticket from them again.

  4. The of is not a . However, some announcements are safer to be made on April 1st, just to make sure that people think before they expect 7 million EPS from a single syslog-ng instance in :-) Well, in a few years...

    - The Dinosaur characters have been re-added.

    - Possum characters now have a functioning pouch

  8. Finally, interview an accountant. Worked for the IRS and also corporations, well balanced. They ask, "what is 1+1?"

    Accountant gets up, closes the office door, sits back down, leans in, and with a twinkle in their eye asks, "what do you want it to be?"

  9. I heard this joke long ago, about accountants, but now feels maybe it's about AI agents.

    Firm was hiring new person. Call in an engineer. Resume is great, love their experiences, and at the interview's end, ask, "what's 1+1?"

    Engineer says, "tests out between 1.99999999 and 2.00000001."

    Thank them. Then interview a statistician. Great training and references. They ask "what's 1+1?"

    Statistician says, "it's within one standard deviation of 2."

  10. Talking of amusing comments I wish I had made (and it could be applied to others)

    ‘David Lammy probably thinks Erudite is a glue.’

    Of course we have people such as ‘Cleverly' in Westiminsterwho has been a boon for silly jokes.

    I know I am easily pleased and generally pissed off at the moment so the little things that are easy to appreciate satisfy.

  11. How does spring move around?

    install rot13 for your OS

    I've always liked playing with rot13

    ROT13 is a simple letter substitution cipher that replaces a letter with the 13th letter after it in the Latin alphabet. It is a special case of the Caesar cipher which was developed in ancient Rome, and used by Julius Caesar in the 1st century BC[1] (see timeline of cryptography).

  13. "Hey, what should I call a package that provides a binary 'foo'?"
    > "Usually just 'foo'."
    "Oh, of course."

    "Ok, what do I call a package that provides a library 'foo', or libraries for 'foo'?"
    > "Usually 'libfoo'."
    "Ah, ok, thanks."

    "Ok, what about a package that provides a graphical version of 'foo'?"
    > "Uhh, we usually name it something like 'gfoo', or 'foo-gtk', 'foo-qt', or 'foo-tk', something like that."
    "Ah, of course, of course, thanks."

    "Ok, so we've got a program called 'qalc', that has GUIs written for qt and gtk."
    > "Okay."
    "So, I'm going to call the packages 'qalc', 'qalc-gtk', and 'qalc-qt'."
    > "No."
    "What??"
    > "It needs to be 'libqalculate', 'qalculate-gtk', and 'qalculate-qt'."
    "WHY!? Why would the package that provides the command-line tool be a 'lib*' package?!?"
    > "I said so."

  15. Did you know?

    There's actually only a finite amount of souls on earth, so they have to keep reincarnating every now and then to keep the planet populated.

    But due to climate change, habitat destruction and hunting by humans there's far less animals than there used to be. At the same time, there's also far more humans than there used to be.

    And this is where furries and therians come from.

  20. A quotation from Samuel Johnson

    Merriment is always the effect of a sudden impression. The jest which is expected is already destroyed.
