Stereotype posted:

what package update accidentally included a space between /usr and whatever the program directory was in the uninstaller so that it deleted all of /usr by mistake when you ran the uninstaller?

that was a good one

similar thing happened with one of the iTunes releases, the installer didn't account for spaces in the root volume name. which is weird because by default macs are always named "macintosh hd" so they never checked a factory fresh machine

dude at work clicked on a phishing email a bunch of us got today

purely by coincidence our outlook 365 clients are all being throttled. the error message is great, it's just a giant white box with the word "throttled" in times new roman.

I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic or not, but apparently Outlook and Skype are facing wide-ranging outages and "throttled" is the error message that is being displayed.

purely being sarcastic. the outlook throttling I assumed was a botched fix to the us south data centre thing from yesterday.

but it's pretty hosed up that the error is just a big whitespace with default text.

and the phishing email was a nice coincidence

we use 365 where I work and swapping from outlook to the web client for a bit worked for us but other sites reported even the web client was hosed for them ymmv

it's all the same backend tho, the client wouldn't make much difference ime
