At work I get paid for what I do, and I never ever said I would not
fix my own mistakes.<br>
<br>
But that's not even the case here.<br>
<br>
I did not ask for a fix - and how could I anyway, the software I'm
commenting about is 5 years old, no one is going to bother patching
it - I was only asking if anyone came across this bug and if maybe
someone figured out what's going on.<br>
<br>
But hey, holy crapaloney! Simply mentioning this is a holy insult to
their highnesses the programmers, how dare you telling them that
what they make does not work ?<br>
Oh mama!!! That's holy sacrilege, you need to promptly make a bloody
sacrifice, mate...<br>
<br>
I was going to find the fix myself anyway, I just wanted to check up
on the "programmer" conceit updated to narcissism these days... ha
ha, funnier by the day...<br>
<br>
Yep, better chances asking the sand... it's actually a lot more
intelligent, it contains silicon...<br>
I am soooo happy that soon all programming jobs will be blown off by
A.I.<br>

Yeah, well, the problem with today's Open-Source
programmers is that whenever you dare ask about stuff they
wrote that doesn't work, you get the same standard answer:
"Update".<br>
Well, I don't need a programmer to generate a 6-letter
word, a terminal Alzheimer can do that.</div>
