Re^9: Is ChatGPT like having a thousand monkeys? (Blank lines in emails)

Back in the days of NT4 I was accused of surfing the internet for fun during office hours.

My "Temporary Internet Files" folder was filled with pictures of cartoons and memes.

I was flabbergasted, and only after a wile I realized what happened.

Some of the secretaries of the department constantly kept forwarding me and others "funny" emails.

And my Outlook, which was set on preview mode, was storing them there. Probably because of using the IE to render them.

That reminds me of my early IT days. I was creating an Access database for a refugee NGO, but one day the executive director of the NGO (who accidentally was a father of my ex-girlfriend and a boss of my girlfriend of that time) called me because everything stopped working. It wasn't my responsibility, but I was willing to help (and they were willing to pay), so I went to the office and started checking the computers. After a while, I discovered the office's shared disk was full, so I tried to find the largest folder to compress or remove some files... It was the director's download folder, full of porn videos. This was in the nineties, so the videos were like 640x480 in 256 colours, but disks weren't that large either. I deleted them without batting an eye and got the money for the extra service ;-) `map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]\|\|0,1}[\\|\|{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^ARGV,3]`	[reply] [d/l]

Interesting approach, I suppose he never asked you. And you're sure his family won't read this ;) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) see Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]
