Other What's ruining your life right now?

Well they haven't arrived today, with the postman so spoke to Royal Mail and they advised it can take up to 30 day's before they would look in to it and to get the barcodes of the seller from the receipt from postage and then they can look at where they are.

 

Well, best of the also-rans is better than ignominious failure, like the last time.

In 2022 I think I should consider shooting the TV and screwing in wooden earplugs for the duration.

 

Would something like SASS or LESS make your life easier at all?

 

CSS is tedious... SASS/LESS [for me at least] makes it marginally less tedious by ensuring i don't have to do as much of it... even if it's only using variables do i don;t have to type in the same effing hex code a gazillion times.

There is also, iirc, an equivalent for JavaScript called CoffeeScript

 

Finally started the learn the new job is was "offered" 15 months ago, Seafood importing, what a minefield of information!
Too old to be learning, especially off someone who has become rather bitter about the company.

 

I wouldn't worry, Qatar is going to be a nightmare for the european sides.

Doubt many will last unless the get a shed load of climate training in beforehand i.e. in a big frickin oven.

 

Foaming at the mouth trying to get a steelseries rival mouse to work, could easily just go and buy another one but it's the principal of the matter.

It just hop skips and jumps all over the screen, had it apart and cleaned it. Drivers un-installed and re-installed.

And the best part is this issue appeared overnight. Amazed at the **** that is sold today.

 

SASS/LESS are definitely not 'frameworks'. They are declarative languages in their own right that transpile to CSS

 

That saidm SASS/Less, and tools like Grunt/Gulp are probably best utilised when starting a project from scratch, setting an existing project up to make use of them will probably take more time than the tools save.

 

Was supposed to send a very urgent e-mail today but Thunderbird ****ed up and generated some error message instead behind all other windows. So I'm fully convinced the e-mail's been sent only to notice hours later, purely by coincidence, that it actually hasn't.

Grrreat.

 

This has been an extraordinarily tough week for the road racing community, I got the news some time ago via a text message from my club. Another funeral I'm going to be making an effort to attend, another stellar guy, James Cowton.

I'm beyond praying at this stage that Ivan Lintin makes it through his critical stage.

 

Cyberark, when trying to connect to an RDP session its now being seen as a virus. So, well, I cant do any work, an I'm being moaned at by the management for an issue the cyber security team have created.

 

It stores passwords and automatically changes them. It can script logon process to RDP and SSH and others without ever actually exposing a password to the user.

 

Except with ours if your password expires mid session it times out said sessions (its not meant to) then when you update you password via windows or what ever means you like it wont allow you to as its not syncd to the LDAP but the servers are so you get lock out spam.
Turns out the virus issue was an update not strictly Cyberark but an update to EPM basically meant windows saw and RDP sessions as a virus. YAY! Oh an to reset my password I have to RDP to another device circumventing cyberark which isn't allowed apparently
