Computer Fail by Jane

"Please note that due to high seasonal order volume, orders placed for delivery between Dec 21st and Dec 24th cannot be cancelled or modified after Dec 18th."

If I placed the order between Dec 21st and Dec 24th, it's already passed the Dec 18th cut-off for canceling. Also, it's "canceled," with one "l".

So Google's Gmail lets people attach up to 25MB to emails, all the addresses I have on my very short Google Groups list are Gmail address and I can't send more then 4MB to the address?

The grandparents are not going to be happy to only get 1 grandson picture per email.

I know, I'm lonely.

Alright so I'll download it...



Gone! And it's been gone for over a month!

You are lying aren't you? Is that why you can't keep your story straight?

It says its going to send me 3 emails, and then it actually sent me three emails,


"Multiple Instance of Quality Center using the same browser process are unsupported. To open another instance of Quality Center, you must launch a new browser process."

Facebook thinks I should tag the sleeve of my sons shirt.

Want to know you rejected your friend request or which friend disappeared from your friends list?

Check out this greesemonkey script!

First you need to use firefox for Facebook browsing
Second, you need to install this Firefox add-on
Lastly, install the script.

Then it'll grab a base line and tell you from there on out which of your friends disappeared from your friends list!

Check it out:



I found friends who deactivated their profile (because the script gives you a link to their profile) friends who have blocked me and rejected friend requests.

The one that blocked me, I viewed the profile from another Facebook account in another tab, switched back to my regular Facebook account while trying to send a friend request. Turns out Facebook knows better:




I even found a friend who deactivates her Facebook during the day, and turns it on my night. Funny!

One of my friends mysteriously disappeared from Facebook and realized it was probably on purpose. I decided to do some good investigation I searched for her by email, then imported my address book.

She was not found via an email search, but was found by an email import.





Don't worry, I didn't try and friend her again. I'm not into Facebook games.

"Sorry this document file is too big. We can only accept documents up to 500KB in size." I also do pay them for hosting for $5/year too.

I realize the window is small, but I think knowing the folder the file went to is more important then knowing what drive it downloaded to. Please don't truncate this information next time.

This drives me bonkers, how can something be modified before create?

How did pasting a link in the email subject field make it disappear in Gmail?

I did this so often at working for a website to try and break the layout I couldn't help finding the error on Facebook.

Field needs "overflow:hidden"

Now there is something you don't see everyday! Facebook - completely down!

I often like to use CutePDF to create a pdf of something I would have printed out if I had a printer. It's a neat little tool.

After installing it today I was really disappointed. I explicitly said not to install AskTool Bar:



So it installed it anyways:


It's a usability nightmare. Why even give me the choice? Now I don't trust CutePDF anymore!

"Unhandled exception has occured in a component in your application.

I think I was trying to view file history with git when I came up with this one. Useful, huh?

"Too Many Tags
Your post contains too many tags. The maximum number of tags allowed is 6, but you have entered 9."
Another Facebook limit, can only tag 6 people in a status.

"Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?

Why can't you download the page?? It's right there!!!!!

Ah Picasaweb, png's aren't all Red.

Input: address with a .me TLD
Expected Output: To be added to the list
Actual Output: Error:


"The address you entered does not appear to be a valid email address, please correct it so we can make you a amember of the SW-Idaho SWE Professional Section."

"Whoa! Google Chrome has crashed. Restart now?"

"Not enough storage is available to process the command."

I had just opened the webpage.....

The 'is' in the sentence makes it hard to read. Without it sounds better:
"Not enough storage available to process the command."

Though I haven't figured out what the problem was... nor what "storage" they are talking about.

The whole website is one big FAIL:

I think this is what you call an epic fail. Or is it genius because it's being passed around like hot cakes?

I decided to switch my voicemail to Google Voice to see what would happen...

It doesn't take much, input a code on your phone after singing up at the website:


Get a redundant message:


Have a friend call you with a message:

"Hey it's just want to go go black about that."

Hm, that didn't make much sense. Fail.

The actual message (way cool I can download it or embed in my blog!):


Actual message: "Hey it just went to Google Voice, how about that?"

Also note a previous post about Google having something in the works!

"The license for this video has expired"
We were watch a movie when we got this in the middle of the movie. They don't even let you finish it!!
Can't you just charge me an hour late fee so I can finish it??

"Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet."
The page isn't connect to the internet? Oh, you mean my phone. Well make the message a little darker then I could SEE it!!

The captcha says "layoff probably", thanks reCaptcha

The irony is that I hadn't been doing anything in that window until this message, just left it open for a while.
