But, but, but, GCHQ does this too... I'm confused.
If chef Gordon Ramsay reprises his TV series Gordon Behind Bars, he could see a familiar face – after his father-in-law was sentenced to six months in jail on hacking charges. Chris Hutcheson, 69 – and the father of Ramsay's wife Tana – used to be the chief executive of Gordon Ramsay Holdings Ltd but was sacked after falling …

Dear old Gordon and his Shit in a Bag Tirade
What Gordon didn't tell you was that the shit in a bag lamb shanks came from Booker cash and carry and Gordon was the advertising face of Booker at the time, fucking whoops.
Shhh, we won't mention meals being bused into his restaurants instead of being cooked there.

"Obviously, your superpower is: Impervious to Puns!"I don't know where the idea I possess superpowers comes from, but you are correct. I missed the pun and that makes me somewhat Mellon Collie...
That phrase about logging in 600 times in one day does not seem possible, the remote tool would have to be logging them out basicly immediately for that to even be phisically possible and they would not have any time left to be doing anything. It seems more likely 600 times the credentials were logged as checked or used over a much smaller number of sessions.
>I'm thinking Windows and SMB shares... Do a 'dir', a couple copies, read those a bit, then another 'dir' might have to reauthenticate, and so on. That kinda thing?<
No. That step does not require "reauthentication". What it requires is re-checking the file permissions. You can watch this stuff happening if you turn audit logging on, which is presumably what the external security consultant did.
I remember cringing at this event at the time. Fairly ugly situation for all involved.
Who hires their in laws? Seriously.
I wouldn't let my mother in law anywhere the important parts of my life.
She offered me £150k once, on the proviso that when the remaining mortgage is paid off, I sign the equity over to her.
I told her if she wants to help us thats fine, but if she expects me to effectively sell a £500k asset for £150k she can go swivel. Stack up your dosh and set fire to it. I ain't touching it unless it helps improve our lives not ruin them by signing over my net worth to a daft old bag.
All I can say is that you got off lightly. From the day of the wedding (when she suggested my wife should pull out - naturally she was not putting anything in to the event bar wearing an odd dress) her 'suggestions' are laughed at by all of the family. MY father in law however is delightful
"The word is "pleaded" not "pled""From the OED:
"Forms: α. 3–4 plaide(n, plaid-i, 3–6 playde, 4 plede(n, 4–7 plede (5 pledde, plide, 5–7 pled), 6 pleade (pleed), 6–7 Sc. pleid, 6– plead. pa. tense and pple. pleaded: contracted 5 pladde, (9 dial. plad), 5– pled (orig. Sc. and dial.), 7–9 plead. β. 4 pleit-y, pleyte, playt-y, playte, pleten, -yn, 4–6 plete, 5–6 pleete, 6 pleate. "
I rest my case as it were...
not with lead, as Pb? seriously, how do you say that word?
Follow me and I won't lead [pronounced "leed"] you astray unless I feel inclined to hit you with a lead [pronounced "led"] pipe.
I know that people from different regions often pronounce the same words quite differently; this may be the case between you and I. I had an interesting conversation with a lady from New Zealand concerning the pronunciation of the word "bear". From what I recall, they say "beer" where Americans say "bare". I know which I would prefer if it came to a choice of having beer or being bare, but to each their own.
"Is there a more irregular language than English? I say "more irregular" rather than "less regular" as English seems to be aggressively so rather than having occasional lapses of judgement."I think you will find that the common verbs in all languages are irregular since they will have been in use longest. Esperanto excepted, but I never came across anyone who spoke it.
I think you will find that the common verbs in all languages are irregular...
I get by in a few different languages and that matches my experience, but it is not just verbs I am referring to though using the word "irregular" might imply that. Simple pronunciation rules for English are nothing more than a figurative container for storage of exceptions. Diphthongs can be especially difficult for non-native speakers and even native speakers have trouble expressing "rules" that govern pronunciation. For example, when should "th" be soft as in "thin" and when should it be hard as in "the"?
