Felipe makes a few appearances in this great _Unauthorized Access_ documentary by Annaliza Savage 1994.
Memorable moments:
Most of the “in memories” were in Dutch, but one of the few English ones says it all: [Wayback] D U T C H F E L L O W S — In memory of Felipe Rodriquez.
Karin Spaink (friend of Felipe, also suffering from MS) wrote [Wayback] Felipe Rodriguez has died.
A few of the Dutch articles that impressed me very much (some obituaries, some on the internet history in The Netherlands):

Somehow this isn’t linked logically from the UI, so here are two sets of steps to get there:
The second has the drawback that you can only see events for repositories that are currently in error, not any repository that has ever been in error.
So maybe I was doing something stupid and maybe there is a far easier way, but these work (:

It looks like Ubiquiti UniFi can do this, can others? How good are they? Price points?
If so, please comment.

Showing message headers and source used to be easy in early Outlook versions.
But as of Outlook 2007 they hid the internet message headers even further away than in Outlook 2003.
Steps for Outlook 2007+:
Same for the message source:

Recently I see a lot of people using the ¯_(ツ)_/¯ emoticon as a meme for shrugging arms (though *shrug* is both shorter and easier to type).
It’s based on the Tsu kana (which is has no meaning by itself, but is a mora indicating a glottal stop) and seems to be in use since 2011.
There is also the Shi kana (which also resembles a smiling face), which would lead to ¯_(シ)_/¯.
The fun part is that the for Shi, Wikpedia mentions ㋛ (which is basically Shi enclosed in a circle) it would become ¯_㋛_/¯ which is as short as *shrug* but more visual.
But for Tsu, Wikipedia doesn’t mention ㋡ (maybe coincidentally, the Tsu enclosed in a circle Wiktionary page isn’t there yet as well) which would make ¯_㋡_/¯, again as short as *shrug* but more visual and the one I would prefer.
The below Unicode code points were all added in 1993, quite some time before they got used as emoticons:

PS: there is a little visual trick to cope with shi, tsu, so and n: watch the stroke order and top/left line.
