It's always DNS, especially when a sysadmin makes a hash of their semicolons

wingZero

Seen this before!

Oh yes, I have seen this many times before! During a critical update that had been delegated to someone in the 2nd line support team, they had updated the DNS Zone file and accidentally added a hash instead of semicolon. Cue the phone call to myself at silly o'clock advising they deployment is not working and they are not sure what the problem is.

Eventually, I awake and identify that there is a hash on the prior record that was wanting to be commented out, however, in this case, there were also hidden characters as it had been amended via windows so also had to run dos2unix on the file and then re-update the file. I don't miss being woken up at silly o clock for these type of things :D!

Spotify adds 'temporary' private listening mode after Facebook backlash

wingZero

No Spotify I dont want to post crap to facebook

Hi,

No I dont want to be forced to put what music I choose to listen to on facebook especially when I am paying for the service, I would EXPECT the option........

Maybe if your free or something the catch is you have to post that shit to facebook, however otherwise they can eat one.

Why Nokia failed: 'Wasted 2,000 man years' on UIs that didn't work

wingZero
FAIL

Its Psion all over again...

Nokia have really shot themselves in the foot.

All they needed to do was create a new UI on top of their solid Symbian software.. What are they doing instead, the same as what happened with Psion going with Microsoft... and look where it got them...
