    WinSCP pisses me off mostly because I use it to replicate the glorious functionality of a properly built comman line terminal inside this *thing* called powershell.

    What is this I don't even.

    Oh I forgot about WinSCP.

    Wait, doesn't WinSCP still make the distinction between SFTP, FTP, and SCP?

    Me: So why isn't this thing done? I told you about it on Friday and you said you would do it on Monday.
    User: What was it?
    Me: <explains what it is>
    User: Did you send instructions?
    Me: Yes.
    User: Can you send them again.
    Me: Yes.
    User: That'll be great. I'll do it this afternoon.

    Fun times.

    Appears update KB4022726 breaks right-click-to-print functionality in IE.

    Shouldn't be a big deal, but jesus christ we've been flooded with tickets about this because "save to PDF" is just too much of a fucking problem, and nobody knows how to install Chrome.

    Here's a weird one. Doing some patching after hours. reboot the sql server, can ping it just fine. After other servers reboot find that none of the services that need sql are working.

    try to remote into the sql server. doesn't work. try pinging the server again, it responds fine.

    Go into the server room and bring up the console (this is still a physical box). I can bring up the ctrl+alt+del to login screen, but the keyboard command doesn't actually do anything. Mouse moves just fine, but I can't even click the accessibility tools button at the login screen.

    Had to hard boot the server. Everything now works. :rotate:

    Our data loss prevention system fired a warning that somebody was transmitting Microsoft license keys over the Internet to ESPN.co.uk.

    Why? Because it thought this was a microsoft license key:

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    That's a neat tool. But generally when I'm working with regexes, I'm in a place where I can easily test them.
