Adobe! Stop changing your Connect login screens five minutes before we are running six classes of webinar students!!

Dasterly, dasterly.

That would make me want to take shots to the eyeball


I was relieved of my previous position for telling the truth. Now I make my living translating the lies of other men.

Planning to, once we get the evening classes up and going. The newest-new-guy (we burn through too many) is a bit shaken after this morning ;-)

...l think it is the first time he had to change security scripts on the fly (or even see us do it).

Adobe,

Stop loading stay-resident programs into my memory without my knowledge or permission!

Stop loading start-ups into my registry without my knowledge or permission!

Stop nagging me about updating PDF reader every five minutes!

Stop stacking your nags so that if I ignore your nags I don't have to click through the dismissal of the previous 20 nags!

Stop updating PDF reader every week so you have a reason to keep your name in my sight, and attempting to load stay residing programs in my memory and other programs in my start up registry without my knowledge or permission!

Stop bloating your supposedly simple PDF reader so that when I read any PDF file, my computer hangs for 20 seconds completely unresponsive! What kind of horribly, horribly written code does that!

Stop being evil!

Stop being used as a standard text file, you don't deserve it!



There, *that's* a rant!

You didn't see me this morning. I think I blew through most of my special gaidhlig in about a minute, hit some nice choice nihon-go, and spent a good ten minutes conjugating crisis/apocalypse while promising three different campuses/campii (I can never make up my mind on the proper plural for campus)'s directors and one dean that we could get the students in before anyone needed to consider any drastic action.

I think that the academic world is ensuring that my heart is good. That's how I explain the blood pressure. On the upside, the newest new guy hasn't quit, and only one of the "been here a couple of years" guys is updating his resume; this means the fires aren't as hot as some years previously.

That and I *have* made up my mind to get a doctorate. I'd love to be on the other side of the cooking dish, if only by the handle whilst roasting.

And the nice people in India who I talked to *after* getting that problem (which was one of seven interesting points in the day) solved were gracious enough to agree to tell us before they change any aspect of the login process for their webinar platform... now, if I can just get them to spell my name right in my email, I might receive said notices.
