What's Your Identity Theft Name?

What's Your Identity Theft Name?
Nothing says "cybersecurity expert" like revealing your email password to generate a cool hacker name! Next up: protect your Bitcoin with your mother's maiden name and the street you grew up on. The perfect security strategy for those who think "Matrix background = elite hacking skills." This is basically every tech-illiterate movie producer's idea of how hacking works. Just type faster and wear a hoodie!

Phishing Attack Immunity Through Digital Hermitage

Phishing Attack Immunity Through Digital Hermitage
The ultimate security strategy: complete email avoidance. While companies spend thousands on phishing awareness training, this genius discovered the impenetrable defense—never checking emails at all. Can't fail a phishing test if you're living in digital isolation! Your IT security team hates this one weird trick. Meanwhile, the boss is proudly shaking hands with someone who's not avoiding phishing emails through skill, but through sheer negligence of basic job responsibilities. Task failed successfully!

When Phishers Can't Spell Microsoft

When Phishers Can't Spell Microsoft
Nothing says "legitimate email" like a password reset from r nicrosoft.com. Phishing scammers putting the "R" in "Really bad at impersonation" since forever. The yellow highlight is basically screaming "Hey look, I'm totally not suspicious at all!" Pro tip: if Microsoft can't spell their own domain name, they probably can't fix your password either.

The Perfect Stack: Love And Code

The Perfect Stack: Love And Code
Of course the web dev showed up! He's the only one who actually saw the email because he deleted it from everyone else's inbox. Classic developer move - social engineering meets technical skills. The irony is beautiful - the quietest guy in the office turns out to be the one worth marrying. Meanwhile, the rest of the team probably still thinks they were excluded from the invite. Next level debugging of the social circle.

Draining The Cloud

Draining The Cloud
Ah, the Environment Agency has finally figured out how clouds work. Apparently, if you delete your emails, rain will magically appear. Next they'll tell us turning off your WiFi prevents hurricanes. For those who missed the joke: The headline hilariously confuses digital "clouds" with actual meteorological ones. Data centers do use water for cooling, but deleting your 2GB of cat photos won't exactly solve the Thames running dry. Somewhere, a sysadmin is reading this while watering their server rack with a garden hose, "just to be safe."

Why Did We Talk In Call

Why Did We Talk In Call
Ah, the classic client move that makes you question your entire career choices. You spend 120 precious minutes of your life meticulously explaining every technical detail, answering questions, and providing clarifications on the project specs. Your throat is dry. Your soul is weary. And then comes the royal decree: "Just send all that in an email." It's the corporate equivalent of "Let me speak to your manager" after the manager has already spoken to you. The aristocratic expression in the image perfectly captures that feeling of aristocratic entitlement that makes you want to time-travel back to before you accepted the meeting invite.

They Are Multiplying

They Are Multiplying
Microsoft's solution to email clients is apparently to keep creating new versions without ever retiring the old ones. At this point, choosing which Outlook to use is harder than fixing a race condition. Classic version for nostalgia, PWA for those who enjoy living dangerously, and regular Outlook for masochists who enjoy random feature removals with each update. Pretty soon we'll have "Outlook (Quantum)" that both works and doesn't work until you observe it.

World's Best Email Address

World's Best Email Address
Ah yes, the infamous [object Object] — JavaScript's way of saying "I tried to convert an object to a string and failed spectacularly." Some poor developer forgot to extract the actual email property and just dumped the entire user object into the template. Now Virgin Media's customer is being addressed as a literal JavaScript error. Nothing says "we value your business" like exposing your serialization bugs in customer communications. This is why we can't have nice things in production.

Your Null Has Been Shipped

Your Null Has Been Shipped
Looks like U.S. Bank just shipped the most valuable thing in programming—absolutely nothing! They're proudly announcing they've shipped null , complete with tracking capabilities. Sure, go ahead and track that non-existent card. Reminds me of those times when the backend team promises to deliver "something" by Friday, and then sends an empty JSON object. At least they're honest about shipping nothing instead of pretending it's a "feature-light release." The best part? Null is apparently "on its way" to an address they have "on file"—which probably means it'll arrive exactly never to precisely nowhere.

Several Ways To Send Mail In Linux

Several Ways To Send Mail In Linux
The evolution of Linux mail clients, as told by Winnie the Pooh's increasing sophistication. Thunderbird? Basic. Elm? Now we're getting somewhere. But telnet localhost 25 ? That's peak sysadmin energy right there - manually typing SMTP commands like it's 1985 and you've got something to prove. Nothing says "I understand the protocol" quite like handcrafting your email headers while your coworkers wonder why you're giggling at a terminal.

I Have A New Idea For This Weekend

I Have A New Idea For This Weekend
Causing mass cardiac events in the developer community with a single email. Pure evil. The beauty is in the timing - 11PM Friday when everyone's either drunk or asleep, ensuring maximum panic when they finally see it Saturday morning with a hangover. The $30,000 figure is just specific enough to be believable. Somewhere, an AWS engineer just felt a disturbance in the force.

Mom Vs. Linux Setup

Mom Vs. Linux Setup
Spending 47 hours configuring your Linux distro with custom kernel modules, a tiling window manager, and 16 different terminal color schemes just to feel like a digital special forces operator... meanwhile your mom can't even figure out how to send an email from your battle station. The irony is that you've built this ultra-powerful system that's completely unusable by anyone but yourself. That's not a bug though—it's a feature.
