Windows as a service, sort of ... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

It's been a while since we poked fun at Windows for its propensity for inappropriate messaging dialogs. This one is pretty funny, although tame compared to the occasional 30-foot-wide BSODs on downtown advertising displays.

Pray that our Minuteman missiles are not controlled by computers running Windows 10. Would not appreciate a nuke war started by MS forced updates.

(Shirley our more modern missiles and nukes are not on win-doze)

I feel bad for the IT guy who did the task deployment. He’s got to be catching all kinds of flak.

Someone that did software that controlled the routing of London buses said a bug once caused all buses to converge on the train station. Caused a huge jam-up.

My shop decided to “upgrade” everything from Office 2010 Standard to Office 2010 Pro Plus. Mind you, they’re hard into the migration process to Win-10 but due to so many software incompatibility issues that ain’t going so well.

So they scripted a deployment of Pro Plus - and managed to break 30% of existing installs in the process. Workers are left with email clients that won’t connect, missing programs, or the entire Office suite gone.

It’s been a laff riot.

As an IT person I’ve had this happen when sending out a mass install/uninstall in which I thought was silent... because I tested it 10 times previously.
