Arg! I'm ranting about the unofficial devrant extension nuuuuu!!!!!
I can't attach images, every time I click attach image and select the image, the notification box disappears and upon reopening, it's refreshed! Why bother with the link if it's gonna do dat!
Haxk20 wherever you are, heed my words!
(I felt guilty writing this mini rant)1 -
More frequent commits are imperative to your sanity!
Trying to find a code change in git, and I stumbled across a commit comment I can't even remember doing!1 -
read and get a basic understanding ->
create using simpleton syntax until confident ->
read a bit more ->
refactor with a more advanced approach
-> repeat until GODMODE
-> sad panda if the next version is completely different (Angular 2.0)
-> flex your muscles
-> buy some swag
-> happy panda
-> retire. -
Here's a quickie that grinds my gears.
When a piece of software asks me for the a hostname but expects a fqdn and when the bloody thing automatically fills in a fqdn into the hostname field!
doesmyheadin.my.domain
HOSTNAME = doesmyheadin
DOMAINNAME = my.domain
FQDN = doesmyheadin.my.domain
If I'm wrong about this I fully accept it, but these are the standards I've been using which to me make perfect sense!
Bloody nonsensical bullshit modifiers.3 -

I'd just like to say a royal fuck you with fingers and all to the BBC.
FUCK YOU
Having 10 mins to spare before I leave to get the train to work I thought I'd pop on the news on my phone.
Having got to the website I was promoted to log in (so the bastards could track me no less) but I thought fine! Having tried my password a few times I eventually got into the news streaming page and clicked play.
Wait what a this? Play store? I didn't want the fucking play store and especially to download the BBC media app but screw it I don't have a choice or a lot of time, so I hit the download button.
The app downloads I launch it and boom! the pissing thing takes me back to the BBC website I shit you not! But wait... wtf page is this? Some middle of buttfuck nowhere page which has nothing to do with streaming the news...
I'm now writing this from the train sweating my balls off after leaving late due to the pissing about that I've had this morning. I've had to pick up the shitty free newspaper running past like a paperboy on crack and the only thing I want to do now is spin up a bunch of nodes and spam the bastards with the web address of my middle finger and the words FUCK YOU!3 -
Start a new job working in systems administration.
Create redundancy so you can finally pull out cables.
Trip over the fucking cables before you're able to impliment the switch.

Look for a new job4 -
When you pull the drives out (or change boot order) because fast boot on that (New, clever) motherboard seems to ignore bios keystrokes on boot... only to have the system blinking saying no boot drive found...
Why didn't you just take me to the bios?!?

Playing way too many games when I was younger I realised I could do work with computers as a job if spent that time teaching myself.
Uninstalled Windows to stop temptation, hellooooo Linux6 -
My misses said she was to young for me as I occasionally drop I'm a bit of Brb, brt wtf etc.. into my messages (I don't like lol), and thus she responds with this:
"U need someone who knows what the fuck those silly little letters mean! "
My messages are childish, eh dear?1 -
A script to run overnight SQL backups, a colleague updated the DB blindly, corrupted most of the data, when checking the backups there was a typo in the script so they were all 0kb in size!
Luckily I had taken a manual one the day before...1
