    An ACTUAL bug INSIDE my monitor screen! Pretty freaking annoying and no way to get it out. Definitely one of the more serious bugs I've seen in my programming career :| Hopefully it will go away by itself...

      I think it's gone :D Must've walked off the edge (I hope it was a flat-earther) ;)

        Well if it left anything behind you will at least know what type of bug it was. It would be a remn ant!

                Wow. Working on a screen with a moving "bug" must either be very distracting, or really freaky. Imagine that running across your screen while you are coding high...

                  It's annoying as hell! Luckily it seems to have found it's way off my screen :D It's been there for a good few hours though.

                        We once had a customer that reported sporadic freezes and reboots. There did not seem to be any pattern to them and I was finally sent onsite to diagnose the problem. When I got there, I found a mouse nest inside the computer. One of those plates that cover the unused card slots on the back of the computer was missing and the critter was using that to get in and out. What makes this more amazing is that it was in a medical lab in a hospital!

                                Wow, mice in a medical lab, who would've thunk it? :D Speaking of sporadic freezes and reboots... I once had a customer who printed some 100 invoices at the end of each day. Ever since we delivered that software they complained that the printer would stop after a couple of prints and they had to reprint about half of the invoices. Not always though, never during the day and sometimes at the end of the day, but other than that no pattern could be found. I checked the code, debugged, tested, despite not finding anything made it more fool proof, added additional logging... Nothing. I even went over there and everything worked fine during the entire day. And then a couple of days later I got that call again, not all the invoices were printed. The logging said the same, only x out of y invoices printed. So one day my manager was there at around the time of the printing and he decided to just walk in unannounced and uninvited. He soon found out the problem... They'd press the print button for 100 invoices and then turned off their computers... :wtf: No one there ever thought it could have anything to do with it :doh:

                                      One of my coworkers went on site at another lab to diagnose mysterious sporadic reboots and freezes that we had been unable to find the cause of from afar. It turned out that the computer was plugged into a UPS as per our installation recommendations. However they had also plugged a refrigerator into the UPS (after all, they didn't want their samples thawing out during a power outage). Every now and then, when the refrigerator compressor came on, our computer would reboot. Go figure.

                                        One of my coworkers went on site at another lab to diagnose mysterious sporadic reboots and freezes that we had been unable to find the cause of from afar. It turned out that the computer was plugged into a UPS as per our installation recommendations. However they had also plugged a refrigerator into the UPS (after all, they didn't want their samples thawing out during a power outage). Every now and then, when the refrigerator compressor came on, our computer would reboot. Go figure.
