Perhaps it is because I am a programmer myself, but I am always amused by the interesting error messages that sometimes pop up in applications. I was especially humored by this one I got tonight, when I was trying to log into my webmail account:
 I thought the "Login failed for some reason" and "Most likely your username and password was entered incorrectly" were nice touches. (As a tangent, that wasn't the error at all, but it was a nice attempt at a guess!) Anyone else have some funny error messages they've come across during their computing adventures? |

This isn't in a computer per se, but I got a kick out of this note in the PHP manual (emphasis added):
Note: In the Microsoft Windows series of Operating Systems the system libraries implementing this function are broken, so gmdate() does not support negative values for the timestamp. For details see bug reports: #22620, #22457, and #14391. This problem does not occur in Unix/Linux Operating Systems, as the system libraries behave as expected. PHP cannot fix broken system libraries. Contact your OS vendor for a fix to this and similar problems. |
