I thought CTRL+C on any message box copied the text to the clipboard ?
|
|
|
|
|
I still try it on most things that are not copy pasteable
|

Message boxes used to copy in their entirety if you just highlighted them and hit Ctrl+C. Doesn't that work, any more?
[edit] "highlighted them" is misleading. Replace with "gave them focus".

what, that's for when base type is textbox. those message boxes are of base type: text. so you need to do ctrl+shift+C. but Xamarin? oh that might be the legacy text type, so ctrl+alt+c should do it?

It seemed like a good idea at the time! 
Plus, now, you have to get board approval and quality assurance testing and regression test pass for any user experience changes!

Yeah, and while we are at it, why does microsoft trap your back button on their website, so when you click "back", it just goes to a page called "continue" and puts you right back on the same page again. This has been going on for at least a decade.
Another one, get an error in Windows and a box pops up saying "click here for more information on this problem". You click it and get a microsoft page saying "no information available". This has been going on for at least 15 years. And then you are stuck in the "continue" loop. It's like they are punishing you for using their products.
ONLY MICROSOFT DOES THIS. They hate people. They must really hate people. There is no way this could be going on for over a decade unless it was deliberate.

Hah! At least you can use your PC.
I spent an embarrassing 2 hours this morning at a site demonstration waiting for an unstoppable Windows upgrade to complete.
The (lost) client was not impressed. Neither was my boss and neither was I.
We're philosophical about power outages here. A.C. come, A.C. go.

You are a lazy ass, that's all.
The title "Why does Microsoft do that?" made me to click the link...
and what a mistake, nothing really about microsoft in your article.
Go troll elsewhere.

No thanks: Citigroup sues AT&T for trademark infringement[^]
Citigroup trademarked 'Thank You'? How the f*** did that get through?
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Fairly typical of the nonsense generated at corporate and governmental level these days.

In Sweden a court ruling recently said that if you publish a photograph of public art, sculptures etc, you must pay royalties to the artist. Pretty cool, eh??
... such stuff as dreams are made on

Perhaps I should move to Sweden and start a new career - appearing in the background of selfies, news reports, etc., and sending off an invoice?

So If I take a picture of you, and some artwork happens to be in the background, I can't post it on twitter? That sounds mad.
|
|
|
|

I think the ruling was about mass-media publishing (news etc), but mad it still is.

Be realistic. The reason behind this is patently obvious, and puts the company's reaction in the proper perspective.
The world is full of f***ing greedy morons.

I would be pleased if both Citigroup (particularly them) and AT&T were to be violently eradicated off the face of earth.

Did you check the word "what" is not a trademark, before using it for title?

Ah. Le WendyBall Contest I assume?
Don't think the media have ramped it up enough in the UK yet - we get some burble about the Welsh team, and how "it's our moment" but all teams always say that. I'd be happy if both England and Wales get kicked out quickly, it'll save a lot of sports drivel on the TV News driving out the Brexit drivel on the TV News...
