Going by other posts here, this appears not to be the case.

😁

Yes, that’s true. I don’t know why I said “originally”. I guess I meant that its recent popularity can likely be ascribed to TITC. But you’re right, it was a thing before that.

Just for info, in case you don’t know… the phrase “Have you tried turning it off and back on again” is (or at least originally was) a reference to British sitcom, The IT Crowd.

The show follows the IT department of a largish company and whenever anyone has any kind of computer problem of any sort, the advice given is to turn it off and on. Surprisingly this actually works most of the time.

So, I don’t think the OP was trying to annoy you, just make a pop-culture reference that they assumed you would get :-)

Shudder…

It’s a work thing for me, I wouldn’t use it otherwise.

I find it useful for what it’s actually meant for, but they keep trying to force other functionality into it, it’s so frustrating.

Agreed, it’s infuriating. As are Skype’s continual efforts to get me to follow interest channels. Why can’t it just be a communications app, and leave it at that? Aaaaarrrggghhh!!!

Cool! That name probably makes more sense to be honest! :-)

Oh wow, yeah, I see what you mean!

Yes officer, this post right here…

In Chrome, ctrl+shift+n opens an incognito window. It’s ctrl+shift+t to reopen a closed tab, and repeat that if you want to reopen more tabs.

It’s the “to” in the line above that’s the problem, I think. Should be “too”.

S318008 it is then.

Beat me to it!

RIP Jack Nance and Ed Wright.

Agreed. A truly vile person.

Fuck the S*n

If you want to experience frustration try getting your business verified on Facebook if Facebook haven’t already decided that your business needs to be verified.

Or indeed doing almost anything relating to FB Business. It’s a nightmare to use in my experience, and the help articles are always out of date, mentioning features that no longer exist.

One of two St Mary’s Cathedrals in Edinburgh. The other one is less picturesque though:

It’d certainly be pricey to live there, but not that bad.

Is your username a reference to The Day Today? If so I love it.
