One time I used a content blocker that said "If you believe you reached this block page in error, please contact the administrator with this form" Someone got blocked from a porn site and I got a request email that said "let me see your pusse", I guess he thought he was talking to the porn site's admin.

A Pinball Wizard posted:Real, serious question: how loving hard is it to program copy and paste? Stupid simple if you just want to copy/paste plain text. A bit harder if you want to handle simple bitmap images. Gets strange if you want to interact with file copy/paste from File Explorer. Gets really drat complicated if you want to have multi-format copies like from Excel: If you paste it back into Excel it can keep everything and even do dynamic references. If you paste it into Word you can either make it an embedded Excel object or you can turn it into a Word table. If you paste it into Notepad you get just plain tab-separated text. If you paste it into Paint you get a bitmap rendering of the data. Edit: On a side-note, drag-and-drop between applications in Windows uses almost the same mechanisms as the clipboard, so if you support one it can be easy to also support the other. nielsm fucked around with this message at 21:20 on Aug 21, 2017 |

nielsm posted:Stupid simple if you just want to copy/paste plain text. What about pasting into a search box and having the search button become active. It works if you type in the field, it works if you ctrl-v in the field, it doesn't work if you right click>paste. I'm guessing it just waits for a key input to activate. I wouldn't be upset except this was the version that was supposed to fix all the other copy and paste issues - the crashes, the formatting problems, the complete inability to paste at times. Turns out trying to recreate Outlook is harder than it seems!

My favorite copy/paste fuckup is when something won't let you paste into a password field for security reasons.

If you are a web developer and you mess with text fields because you think you know better then you should consider getting hosed

Thanks Ants posted:If you are a web developer and you mess with text fields because you think you know better then you should consider getting hosed Definitely make text fields do weird stuff that makes it so that when I try to overwrite the text it just sticks it onto the end or something. Just make sure it's impossible to paste in a server name into the field. Edit: And if what I paste in has a space at the end, make sure that it excludes any FQDN variations of what I pasted in.

The Fool posted:I had a new account form on a website allow me to paste into the first password field, but not into the confirm password field. I think the reason is they want you to have to type it at least once. Which makes sense in 99% of cases, but is a huge pain in the rear end for those of us who use password managers.

Require passwords to be entered using an on screen keyboard written in Flash, that only supports alphanumeric characters, doesn't have a caps lock and enters everything in lowercase, but has uppercase keycaps.

 This is a password entry pad for a financial institution. It is a single image with an image-map, where you click on the the buttons to enter your password. The image is randomly generated, but the characters for your password are always present.

So that means you could narrow down the characters in the password if you look at enough keypad images?
