Then when Kim Jong Un says America Risks a Nuclear attack, it is also not a threat 
|

Completely different things, Kim Jong Un controls any nukes North Korea has and would have to order the never-gonna-happen attack, Londons mayor is giving his opinion on someone else might or might not do.

A Muslim leader telling America it will be attacked by Muslim terrorists IS a threat.

So a priest disagreeing with a a states pro-choice law, says that abortion clinics in that state may be targets of attacks by radical christains because of that law, is threatening those clinics?

Of course that would be considered a threat.

Well then, perhaps we should jail the good priest for having an opinion.

Not presenting a stand on Humps Trumps comments, I have to say that the new mayor of London seems decidedly French (as in surrender monkey).
In case he hadn't noticed, they've already attacked the US. The actual subject of the conrovorsy, aside, he is presenting a do what they want or they'll do something to you. If that were their voice (not his) I'd explain to them the benefits of napalm and cluster-bombs real up-close and personal.

Exactly, an opinion is all it is, Londoners may have more to worry about than those in the US.

OK, so Nasa just released this and it looks like the best addition to a 1st person shooter ever.
Basically add some heart rate sensors to each player and other sensors (all in your Microsoft Band/Apple Watch) and punish the player for higher rates etc.
What do you think?

Good point, but my thought was it would be like crossing Poker with an FPS. Poker is fun, because you've got to bluff/stay calm when you know you've got the winning hand etc. If you could combine some of that tense atmosphere into an FPS, it might be really interesting... it's not the next Battlefield, but would be extra hard core.

Well yes you are right but how does this feel like poker? Im just posting my fitness data and compare it to other players. Why would i go for reducing my heartrate? Doom is set in the Horror Genre which means your heartrate should go up and you should be scared and sh.. your pants.
So i actually see no benefit for this genre, with another game this system might be more usefull.

Since a few days I intermittently receive hundreds of spam every hours! (a few thousands a day!)
It was ok this weekend, strangely enough, spammers took the weekend off.
Arguably I own a domain with a catch all email (which I just deactivated).
I wonder if anyone else is experiencing some similar plight?
|
|
|
|

Nope - I've had three junk emails today, and none of them are "unexpected spam": all from places I've signed up for to buy something.
Best stop visiting those naughty sites!

Good tip!

Not here...
The spamassassin in our server works very well...
|
|
|
|
|
Mmm... I need one of those! 
|
|
|
|

Probably your mail server has one... sometimes they have it disabled by default.
Once you activate it... it starts killing spam.

Yes.
I admit that I too, take weekends off.

Email spam is normal. (10 or so daily, mostly getting sent straight to the junk folder)
What I have noticed is smarter bots hitting my home/office webserver. Somehow they are now able to construct query strings for dynamic pages.  (googlebot is a culprit) Not only are the query string parameters named correctly, the format for the value is correct. (if I'm expecting a 7 digit numeric customer code, the requests are 7 random digits, if I'm expecting a state abbrev., the request is a valid state abbrev.)
The only way I can figure they are able to do this is by stealing it from a user's (probably mine!) local cache.
I've since enabled url rewrites for the bots that are abusive. I don't mind them indexing my static content, but trolling for data is not cool. After reviewing my web server logs today, I have given up an disallowed all bots from the entire server. We'll see how much this stops the abuse...

That might be what happened..
I did an experimental "contact" page on my never visited (or so I thought) web page!

I have spent the last four hours trying to get BitBlt to work to the display from a large bitmap in C# (preview 100x100 pixel image thumbnails from a 3200x3200 bitmap) and going round in circles because all I get is black rectangles. And I keep finding bits on Google which tell me to use SelectObject on the DC, using the bitmap handle, and I can't get that to work because I can't call GetHbitmap on the image, and...
... then I realise that my large bitmap is declared as
private Image big = ... rather than
private Bitmap big = ...
The second definition lets me call GetHbitmap on the image, and pass it to SelectObject ... and it all works, brilliantly... 
Maybe I need a continuous intravenous drip of caffeine?

There is irrefutable proof* that Caffeine Driven Development is the way forward!
