Fuck. Pop-Up Blocker not working in FireFox 1.0.7



And, no, I don't want to remove any, ahem, cough, errors from my computer. I like my virus scanner.

And I have no need for any error removal software, that by someone elses definition might be called spyware or adware.

Sven Wars - A New Hope

So I heard from a former colleague of mine, that the complete team of the company I used to work for has told the CEO of the company that they are no longer willing to accept Sven as head of software development.

A brave move, one I wish I would have participated. But its too late for me, I have only minor interest in software development now. But it fills my heart with deep gratification that this person is getting the cheque for the things he's done. I wish my former colleagues all the best.

So tune in for the next epsiode:

Even Microsoft was afraid of Y2K

In the last few days of 1999, the main Windows development building was prepared for a wholesale catastrophe. Generator trucks were brought in so that the entire building could be kept up and running should the power fail as part of a worldwide Year 2000 meltdown.
