there are two types of windows errors:

oopsies :((((( we had a problem!

The instruction code 0x676767 could not be instantiated. STOP CODE: LMAO_UR_HOSED

Plugging either of those into a search engine will drudge up a ton of SEO spam, and decade old MS support forum threads insisting that you run sfc /scannow

A Short Story Inspired by Recent Conversations

“Important Work”

“We are archivists,” the alien explained, “we travel from solar system to solar system searching for events worthy of recording for our library.”

“I am responsible for archives of moments of great happiness.” The alien continued, “I seek beings in a perfect state of joy. That is why I have come to earth.” She beamed at me as if this made perfect sense.

used to work at a hosting provider and they literally had a team called BOFH

they'd claim it stood for something a little more business-friendly, but after meeting a few of em, it was clear they were taking inspiration from the Operator himself

welp, I went to the Xfinity™️ by Comcast™️ store, and they shared a fun fact with me:

* there are two types of Xfinity service
* he can only help me with the one I didn't buy

I ordered new Internet service from Comcast, and immediately after getting my money, my Xfinity™️ account no longer works whatsoever, and no support agent can find a record of me ever ordering anything.

Of course, Comcast would be the kind of company to literally gaslight customers.
