I get the same thing: I work with a bunch of hardware engineers. They write everything in Excel. I've received long specifications that were Excel spreadsheets .

even more when it's only some spam/phishing email message they've received they they feel they must send as a screen capture
- yeah, like we really like reading the cropped message and tiny text in a blurry 4MB photo sent to us on the road when you could have just forwarded the original message.

I hate it when the Snipping Tool is removed/hidden from the workplace office base image.
Most useful tool MS made.

It's better than nothing.
I recently got an email titled "Error in app !!!" (yes, three exclamation marks).
The body said something like "One of our users has been seeing an error in the app for the last few weeks."
So, please tell me, how bad is the phone taken screen capture?

The 'captures' that triggered my current hissy-fit aren't actually that bad. They're fairly close to the screen, and I can see what I need to see. I've received captures that contained less than 25% of the screen content and were taken at off-angles rendering the image useless.

You're saying your users aren't only bad at computers, but also at photography?
Next thing you know they'll fax you a Polaroid camera picture!

I received a phone video clip once in a bug report that was actually useful. It showed the sequence of actions in a way that a great steaming pile of trace information couldn't portray.

I'm still looking for a decent way to take a screenshot of a BIOS screen.

I've noticed with several sites I have an account with that they no longer allow special characters in passwords. That seems like a move in the wrong direction. Special characters allow passwords to be more complex so I wonder why some are making this change.
Has anyone else noticed this?

Yes and I can't understand why - ASCII is ASCII is ASCII after all - and I hate it as elephant.

Sorry, I have written poorly: I mean that an ASCII character is equal to any other ASCII character for the purposes of both internationality and cryptography. Why A-Z is ok and $ is not?
I hate the sites that disallow "special" characters because they weaken security for... what, exactly?

Typing passwords on mobile devices is the worst!
That's one of the big reasons I created C'Ya Pass so you never have to type a password again.
You can get the free Android version right now.
This really isn't spam. It's totally related. You can read my articles here where I formulated this new idea of generating passwords that are SHA256 hashes (probably as unhackable as a password could ever be).
You can also get the windows version of C'Ya Pass at my site: C'YaPass: F*orget All Your Passwords | Never Memorize A Password Again <br/> Never Type A Password Again <br/> Never Make Up A Password Again[^]
I'm really not trying to be spammy. You can read all about technology behind this here at CP in my articles.

I just want Android to include a general, always available, "see password" option. Mine are nearly all English sentences or phrases, so it's more typing on a wee tiny touch screen and lots of chance of mistakes.

|

Yeah, it's really difficult. You could type your password in a Note app copy and paste into the target I guess?
Thank goodness paste still works in password fields (most).

Not a reason to remove them, just a reason to not make them mandatory.
