I thought CP means Charity for Programmers. Not so?

Great, congrats ! (I am bit CP older than you.)
These days I crawled in my old messages, and I can reconstruct parts of my life (birth of children, wedding, carrier moves,...) with Lounge posts. In sugs&bugs, I could even retrieve my tiny contributions to the changes in CP...
But hell .... time flies !

Even if my contribution is in no way to be compared to legends here, I am really glad to be part of the "early" followers - who are still here. Seeing CP growing was/is fascinating.
My sole regret for now is that I never had an opportunity to meet with a CPian IRL (actually twice, but both canceled).

I sure hope you don't mean the Lounge specifically. You'll need therapy. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

After I posted the message, I thought someone's gonna ask, "So chatting with people is your work?" . lol
Well I didnt mean Lounge, I meant the C++ forum.
But still, Lounge thought me how to flame people , which is still at work for me

Good. There is still hope for you yet. You are not a lost soul.
Some people can't handle the Lounge and they end up going crazy. Then they start posting about their drinking habits or what they had for lunch. They go so crazy they confuse the Lounge with facebook and twitter. Don't let that happen to you.

You think I look at lounge as it is ? there's another set of filters other than what CP offers as forum configs.
They are on my eyes. I tend to read only messages from the known names. _Known_ as in, known for a decade.

I know it's probably a coincidence, but on the day Xp is retired, my Windows Xp VM - that I desperately need to support valuable legacy code - goes three sheets to the wind and has a self-inflicted electronic lobotomy?
I *never* surf the net on this VM, I just need it to run compilers and debuggers. I don't care about patches, updates, etc. I've been using you for 10 years, and the only time you've been unhappy is when MS patched you.

So, after spending yesterday afternoon migrating code out of the VM, I boot the VM this morning.
Hmmm, looks like no issues so far..... and what do I get the day AFTER MS stops supporting Xp?
Wait for it......
Yes, more updates

We used to have an XP here at home that didn't even have an internet connection. Guess what it claimed were available from time to time?
Wait for it...
Windows updates.

So generated this for the Lounge[^], as we're currently discussing the soft & external bits of SEO, so I'm not really involved.
