... sort of the chance of writing a CCC that will actually be solved by somebody.
I do think it was actually solved, but these non-cooperative helioradiators wouldn't comply!
Todays solution: euphemism
And I thought that first hint was a dead giveaway. Neither did anybody hear the ewe errhhmm eu.
Anybody up for the derivation?
Cheers!

Er ... really?
Apart from the homophone for 'eu' and the definition I can make neither head nor tail of it ... and I'm a professional clue writer and occasional clue writing competition judge! I can only gape in awe if you have a rational explanation for ...

Well good on you, but I'm not, as you have properly observed with your skills as a cunning linguist.
If you'll just hop a long to the etymology of that word you might find the bits and pieces to string this together. I'll make an easier one tomorrow if only to evade further complaints from some helioradiator hiding behind a number.

Ah, did I forget to mention that I'm also a koine Greek scholar and therefore know that PHEME (transliterated cos I can't be bothered to get my Greek alphabet out) is not a verb used of prophecy? My bad.
Even if it were I'm really not sure why you thought anyone else would know that! It's hardly the stuff of everyday conversation in coding circles and certainly not sufficiently so to start throwing insults around because nobody got it!

Yes! Come back tomorrow for the next tear down.
Love and kisses, or something!

And after the last you will receive Windows 10!!!
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

And then it's undoubted copious supply of updates!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

So far, I have:
- Two updates for Windows 10:
- KB3074678, which doesn't seem to exist on the Microsoft site;
- KB3074686[^];
- One update for ASP.NET MVC 5.1: KB2994397[^], which is from October 2014 - no idea why that wasn't baked in to the RTM;
- Eight definition updates for Windows Defender. I think these are cumulative, so you'd only need the last one.

I feel your pain....we rely on Office 97 for one of our in-house systems, so until we re-design it, we are stuck with XP.

and finally when Windows 10 is up to date, he will downgrade!

For installing Windows and "all tools" I am planning 2 annoying days.
I use to have an extra "work machine" if I install Windows on a PC.
Press F1 for help or google it.
