    I wonder what made them revert from the standard HTML4 strict DTD to an earlier draft... Actually scratch that, both DTD files are identical.

    Office clipart is TRWTF

    Every single time I see one of those in a printed document or a presentation, I only want to walk to the front of the author, then hold my fist tightly and move it towards his/her face at the maximum speed possible.

    It only says it feels like -572°. That'll just be the wind-chill.

    Odd, I don't even have the ability to search for clipart in my copy of Office 2013 anymore. Maybe the database got Disabled or perhaps even lost it's Accessibility?

    The MS Office clipart search is assuming you want images appropriate for Access.

    Ah, the Generic Hero. I remember him well from a Champions campaign. Nondescript guy in a white suit with word HERO printed in block characters. He had the power to steal other heroes' powers, but he only got the generic version. So if he stole another character's ability to shoot flames from their hands all he could manage was projecting a black and white cone with the word FLAMES stenciled on it. Good times.

    Actually, that might be a cool idea for printing giant (REALLY giant) posters - hack a roomba to essentially become a moving printhead. Next level of street art???

    I wonder what negative molecular motion feels like...?

  • (disco) in reply to redwizard

    I thought that was the conversion between matter and anti-matter? No such thing as negative molecular motion, at least, in that context... Of course, once it reaches that point you're going to overflow it and it will immediately become infinitely energetic... ... ...

    . Hmm...

    Dang it! That's pretty much what I was going to say.

    With the IE one, the release of IE11 was apparently missed by most of Microsoft's web teams. It took them a few months after release to make the Windows Update site render anything at all in IE11.

    Of course the BBC weatherman doesn't want his name associated with the forecast, given the wind chill conditions that seem to be around.

    At first I wondered if that might be absolute zero in Fahrenheit, but no, absolute zero is "only" -460°F.

    FYI, google's results are much more relevant.[image]

    -572°C, hmmm? Took a moment to figure out, but what's clear is that, somewhere, the system starts with TRWTF, which is -999°F. Then, it got converted to -572.77778°C and, one broken round-off later, presto: -572°C.

    At 20 pages per minute, I wouldn't be going anywhere near that thing.
