No, it can't. Read the fucking exception message, dumbass.
Admin
Is the weather in Cambridge MA always this capacitive?
Admin
MIT is in Cambridge, so I'd imagine that's very likely.

Can the immovable coding flaw stop the unstoppable email spam?

The real WTF is that Irish Girl has disappeared.
Admin
But aren't microfarads really, really small?

TRWTF is that Roy doesn't know that you can press <Alt>+<Print Screen> to just copy the active window.

The unsubscription message should probably read:
Error: You have been successfully unsubscribed.
Admin
Even better is the "Share The Unknown" button below the article. It seems our beloved website has become highly metaphysical these days.
Admin
Leaving PHP errors on on a production web server...well done.
Admin
Yes, but it is common for electronics usage. If you had a 1 F capacitor, it would hold a monster charge, and be fun to tase people with.
Admin
Hey the Irish chick's gone :-(
Admin
Irish she was still here.
Admin
Admin
I'm from Argentina, and I still see her.
Admin
Actually, I'm curious how does negative capacity feel like.
Admin
Even google calculator doesn't know.
Admin
Well, a farad is LOTS. 17 microfarads at 230V can give a nasty shock already.
Admin
Irish she was...
Irish she was.
Admin
Why is she gone? Was she removed because she kept encouraging off-topic comments? We demand her back!
Admin
oh noes!!!
Admin
Not really, it's just that farads are really, really big.
I remember seeing a cartoon a long time ago where the caption was "I have the 6-farad capacitor you ordered". The picture showed a truck driver at the front door of the house and the tractor-trailer parked on the street towing a capacitor that was bigger than the house.
Admin
I like the fact that even in XP SP2 many, many Windows dialog boxes don't let you resize, so it's impossible to determine where a mapped drive letter point...
Admin
Golly, electronics humour sure is funny!
Admin
Welcome to the brave new world... 3kF capacitors are now about 1L:

Admin
16 microfarads seems a bit low. I think in a thunderstorm the earth-cloud gap has about 2 farads.
(sorry for the non-humorous nerd comment)
Admin
Admin
What Irish girl?!? What are you talking about?!? Stupid NoScript!
Admin
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!11one11eleven!1!!eleventy-first!!
PS: At least we get to "Comment on The Unknown" now!
Admin
Word cannot edit the unknown Unknown, but the known Unknown is probably OK.
Admin
The real question is, if an Indian asked a programming question in the forest, would it still be urgent?

And, of course, would also be useful for car audio bragging rights.
Admin
Don't forget your sunscreen, it's going to be 16 microfarads today.
But it will only feel like -5 microfarads so won't be unbearable.

Very zen like. me likey.
Admin
The Irish girl obviously didn't read the weather forecast. If she did, she'd have known that it was 16 microfarads today, significantly increasing her chance of being struck by lightning.
Admin
The Irish Girl can still be found here.
Admin
TRWTF is that InstallShield's "Intelligent" updater will continue to pop up every now and then to remind you that you've instructed it not to update anything... :|
Admin
Wow, I didn't realize her rack was so big. Nice.
Admin
Admin
I found Irish guy for the ladies

Admin
4 or 5u?
Admin
Weather.com has been pushing to standardize on reporting temperature in micro-farads for some time now, but they've encountered some resistance.
Admin
You, sir, win.
Admin
I meant, I'm writing from Argentina and the irish girl is still on the same place, just in case it has to do with regional targetting ads or something.
I was heading to the bathroom for my daily irish ritual.
