don't forget about indentation. now we can fight about whether we should use superior tabs or inferior spaces.

here in the northern bits of johannesburg, we have 25mb fibre at home. supposed to be 50GB cap, but we were told it's uncapped until they get a client portal so you can track your usage. it's been over a year now, so i'm assuming they forgot. this costs me R706 a month ($47.85). the actual uncapped package is R361 ($24.47) more. internet has never really been cheap in south africa.

if i said that i did not literally lol ("literally" as it's actual meaning says, not the way those millenial whippersnappers use it), then i'd be lying.

that's just it. when this happened last week, i took a screenshot, pasted it in mspaint, highlighted a section, copied and went to email and pasted some random youtube url. all in the space of half a minute.

also, different computers. and i'm in south africa. our internet is too crappy for the nsa to do surveillance without constant buffering, so i believe they don't care about us.

this is most weird. it's now the second time this has happened to me, but it happened from the other side now. the first time was 4 or 5 years ago where i copied some text to paste it somewhere and my manager did a copy and paste on his laptop, but he pasted my text. both of us windows 7 and on a work domain. now, 5 minutes ago, the same thing happened to me again. i took a screenshot of some code in visual studio, pasted it in mspaint, dragged a block around a function and copied that to paste in an email. when i ctrl-v'd in the new email, it pasted a shortened youtube like to a "nissan 200sx" video (i have very little interest in watching anything other than food videos on youtube). this time, i'm on windows10 and not on the work domain (ain't nobody got time fo' that!). i also have no idea who this link came from and how it infiltrated my clipboard. so far my leading theories are: - crazy-ass windows - is aliens - barry allen ran in, looked for a youtube video, copied the link, emailed it off and forgot to copy my previous item before he left

you'd love the recruiters here in south africa. i'm sure they "perform some magic" on your cv, because how else have i been able to get jobs? i'm sure if they tried, i could get the ceo position at pied piper.

i love lightning, but probably only becuase this has never happened to me.

i was just about to ask if you ever noticed any smells like sulfur or if it sometimes feels like it's cold... but it could be bugs too i guess... :thumbsdown:

i had many first times... 1: managed to install solaris in 2005 - somehow got a gui once and never again. no idea what was going on. gave up. 2: installed some sort of linux distro we used as a firewall as work in 2009. didn't know what was going on; no gui. gave up. 3: installed centos in 2013. made an enormous cockup while trying to be clever with the partitions. spent two days trying to fix the grub bootloader and editing various things using vim. had no idea what i was doing and didn't get it right. enjoyed all of it for some reason. reinstalled successfully and played around with it for a bit and now i like linux, but i hardly ever get a chance to use it. but i try.
