back to article A most uncivil display in New York's Civil Court

With travel restrictions set to ease, bork has skipped lightly across the Atlantic after a brief sojourn in France and into the New York Civil Court, where the long arm of the law appears unable to reach Ctrl, Alt or Delete. Today's image was sent in by a reader Regomised as "Aziz" and features a very unhappy information board …

    When Yagan Square was first opened here in Perth, someone didn't think to disable the touch screen on a very large display.

    Whereupon some joker decided to play a P*rnhub video on the display.

      I visited a shopping centre pre pandemic and they had installed display panels showing constantly changing adverts for shops in the centre. All fine until the display app crashed on one exposing the Android OS. The touchscreen was working so I couldn't resist a play around. You could see it had been stripped of most applications and certainly no web browser. There were some interesting settings as that was one of the few apps available but it was otherwise very locked down. I got the feeling somebody was worried about a Pornhub situation. Sadly didn't have my phone with me to document the thing pictorially.

        Mainly for the splendid bravado implied by

        Enjoy while you can, this will shortly become suspicious behaviour, if not outright illegal :)

    "Windows Media Player has long been a mainstay of Microsoft Windows, cropping up in the as far back as the days of Windows 3.x before its final incarnation, version 12, in Windows 7"

    Nope, still there in Win10... you just need to find where they hid it (the presence of "C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player" might be a clue)

    (VLC preferred, except the latest versions don't seem to have the 'will run anything' that made it a 'must have')

      Another entry in Microsoft's UIs through the ages. If we dig down to the Windows 7 layer we can see the fossilised remains of Aero.

        Fossilised Aero

        Ahhh almost Halloween, time to get mini chocolate bars out for the kids.

        Which means I get to snack on the Mini Aero's, usually with a white milky dusting, indicating its great age, so really only thinking of the children.

    ...a pinched cable under the left rear of the base?
