Lost my password to my hostmaze login because LastPass didn't save it properly. Now I can't reset it because their mailing server is not working (found out after emails failed to send to their support email with an error on their end). Their chat is also non-responsive.... What do I do now...

Cheap alternatives to Digital Ocean? Needing a VPS server that will run Algo VPN and/or nginx.

A side project lingering around is building a .NET Core based GUI program to monitor uptime and health of various Windows and Linux servers. I'm aware there are other projects that could do the same thing but I'm wanting to do this as a lesson in C# and cross-platform coding (I plan this to work on both Windows and Linux).

The program is currently CLI based on Windows with functionality to configure it and it's behaviour via config file, it currently sends email via SMTP to a specified email recipient to notify if there has been outages or performance degradation.

But of course University is in the way as well as work. Oh well... maybe I'll get to it in a couple months.

"Using HTTPS is only useful if your page has a login. Just use HTTP."

Of course Yahoo have the worst documented API. Half of the responses either don't exist or are wrong.
I'm so done!

So minimal that I barely exist.

When you have a coding issue you can't fix after numerous searching and debugging you give up and talk to somebody about it to see if they'd know what the cause is.

*40 mins later* the conversation is about security habits, cryptography coding and the ballmer peak.

Sit back down after the detailed conversation and realise I forgot to get assistance on the code issue.

Whelp! Maybe I'll look at refactoring now and perhaps start from scratch if I cant fix it. FML

When ActiveX is proposed as a solution for a staff facing web application, but all the staff run Windows 10 and use Edge or Chrome...

When the browser reads 'clas' as 'class' and things oddly work as expected. But when you fix it to be 'class' everything breaks horrifically.

Just overheard somebody discussing about adding in IE8 support for the website. Please no... Just don't.

When somebody demos a new app to the CIO as a functional product but turns out to be a concept prototype made with Origami without any proper code... literally a glorified PowerPoint with animations....

Help a future Linux convert out!
So far over the past year I've gone through Mint, Fedora, Ubuntu and REHL and all have had their issues or just didn't agree with me. Currently I've been using OpenSuSE Leap I haven't had much an issue with... But I'm looking to try out Arch, though I'm not a fan of the whole CLI install. Doing some more research I saw Antergos which is just Arch but more n00b friendly and more elegant to me. Has anyone had experience with Antergos? Is it as it seems? Any pros and cons with Arch Linux based things? Running it in a VM first doesn't do it justice for me.
