All you have to do is put the developer's home phone number on every error message that his code generates. Of course Microsoft don't have the balls to do this. |

29 Oct 05 - 04:51 PM (#1593322) Subject: RE: BS: Microsoft Shares your Pain! From: Mark Cohen Too bad more people couldn't see this...it's quite well done. For those who missed it, this was a "documentary" video, ostensibly created by Microsoft for IT professionals, about a new initiative called WE-SYP (We share your pain.) The idea is that whenever an error message occurs on an end-user's machine, a signal is sent to a central office identifying the Microsoft programmer who was responsible for the bug that caused the error. He or she then receives a response through a specially constructed chair--either two needles jab him in the butt, a "mild" electric shock comes through the armrests, or the back of the chair flips back and then forward, banging him in the back. Lots of earnest programmer/administrator types with deadpan explanations of how the system works. Aloha, Mark |

From: The Fooles Troupe Hmmm - looked closer at this link above - something always redirects me to http://www.netauthority.org/.... That site site is a place where people list sites that are in violation of the Internet Acceptable Use Policy. What is funny is that Microsoft and many other big name sites are there... Looks like some sort of IP router clash is occurring with my path. |

I feel its only polite and safe to see where people are being invited to go. Meanwhile due to a corrupt Mictosoft OS I can't view a media player program. My operating system was attacked 2 months ago. Since I virtually only post here I am inclined to believe that our chief resident troll is respondsible. Its easy to imagine the worst from the worst... C'est la Guerre. Even if he is innocent, would anyone here mind if his hardrive gets erased? |
