Error'd: Take Off
Slow news week at Error'd, so we're dusting off a couple of submissions from earlier. That last one's a beauty, eh?
Special Dave flexes"Got my annual request for a donation to Habitat forHumanity. Not sure if their new URL is meant to conveyjust how special I am as a donor, or if someone wasgoofing off with a test for formatting the form andforgot to change before their production run." We loveyou too, sweet cheeks.
Moody Nicola is having an existential crisis."MY laptop is not even remotely trying to help!" she writes."Luckily we're already in the second half of themonth; I'll be so happy to start anew. Hoping to get abit more optimism from macosx."
Jinpa encountered this one at a semi-fancyhotel (dig the slick ice bucket!)Somehow I feel like we've run this before, but I'm notfindingit in the archives. Any memories?
Mike S. snapped a shot from his own HDMI TV. Is it worthy of Error'd? I say it's at least worthy of a chuckle.
Finally, it's a bit of old news now but you may recall Southwest Airlines had a significant WTF not long ago. They tried to placateJohn Melville with their own private currency, but he's not having it.Jibes John, "Southwest says they had to cancel my vacationbecause their routing system couldn't handle a complexwinter storm. I believe it because their web site alsocannot handle simple problems -- like addition." Gripes aside, the Southwestsoftware system seems like a fascinating but solveable challenge, if they havethe will.
