Joy - now that's another protocol it can suck over... cPanel is a positively horrible piece of software.

They're in the financial services industry so they are the manifestation of the infinite monkeys theorem.

That's ok until you fuck your back up one day or hurt yourself in some other way. "What do you mean access denied - I've just got a back ache!"

I'm glad you've had success. You must look after yours better than our clients did!

Used one of these before (YubiKey) - they are an utter pain in the arse. The contacts get dirty, they dont fit some USB ports properly, they die regularly, are absolutely no good if you don't have a USB port handy (my desktop for example do

Yes they do. Most of them are contracted out to companies which have state restoration software on, so if someone screws it up, they can re-image it instantly.

The objection here is that "I can't hack and hack to get the answer without inconveniencing myself". I watch people using this approach all day every day and have to sort out the shit-tip mess that is left behind because it ends up with spr

This times a million. Getting dragged up in front of the head master for cracking the econet filestore in my school was the start of my career :)

We weren't allowed to meddle with them, but did that stop us? No.

No you don't for PuTTY at least. You can download the exe and stick it on the desktop or in the user profile directory.

If it's O2/Telefonica (which it is), then they manage them fucking terribly and deliver shitty products that fall over and leave people in dire shit regularly. Not only that, they stereotype and patronise them terribly.

As other people have said: Chromium is not Chrome...

That's because it's simply the wrong tool for the job. Stuff like this is a deal breaker either for the terminal or the browser model. Keep using PuTTY

Yes: just like before with PuTTY or OpenSSH...

It depends if your market is there already or if you need to build a market. If the market is there already, it really doesn't matter if it's usable or not. Enterprise software is a fine example of that.

No citation but I know the guys who built it and they're all engineers, computer scientists and physicists. The design portion was "how can we make a case that has the least amount of plastic, is easy to clean and access for service". That'

They are just roles, but the OP implies that when the roles are assigned to individuals, there is conflict. This is true. Any software engineer worth their weight is a good product and project manager and knows how not to build something th

The thing is, without the project managers and designers, the project still gets delivered...

100% agree. This whole "let's build another language/compiler" on top of JavaScript thing is starting to piss me off. It's one of those things that just ends up in utterly huge amounts of excruciating pain with respect to performance, debug

Yes just like their WiFi probing thing that they got in trouble for and blamed it on a rogue developer...

You are the first person to articulate exactly what I think about such things perfectly! Give me PuTTY or SSH on a terminal any day over this.

That's the way of the cloud. Its also why I won't put any or my data near it.

Yep but they share one feature: shitty idea.

I will say I don't like it for online storage of any kind, but it's pretty hard to beat XML as an offline interchange or archival format. Case in point: we can dump an entire client's data from our system into a single gzipped XML blob stra

Ugh I remember that. What an utter vomit-bag of a creation that was. You can see how popular it was considering their web site was (c) 2001 - 2003...

We had an entire system based on SQL Server's "FOR XML" output clause and XML data islands in IE. It was an unmitigated fucking disaster zone that took 5 years to get rid of. That put us off the above pretty sharpish.
