Not sure why Privacy Badger blocked both fsdn.com and a.fsdn.com (if someone knows how to find that out: please let me know), but these are CDN domains are used by Slashdot and sf.net, so I have put a.fsdn.com from red to yellow (no cookies).
I have not unblocked s.fsdn.com, which redirects to sourceforge.net over TLS.

I laughed when https://www.google.com/#q=visual%20studio%20code%20indent%20settings%20per%20file%20type got me the first link twice (see below screenshot).
But I was glad that that link to [WayBack] visual studio code – How to set per-filetype tab size? – Stack Overflow.
This one:
EditorConfig is a file format and collection of text editor plugins for maintaining consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs.
In addition, it taught me how to configure the settings.json with md specific settings, which – despite the IDE indicating the JSON is invalid – just works: markdown indentation is now 2 character positions.
"[md]": { "editor.tabSize": 2 }
The search result:

Happy Day of the Programmer!
Enjoy this little gem: [Archive.is] Harvey Green’s answer to What are the best examples of software bugs that became features (a.k.a. misbugs)? – Quora
This is from an anecdote by Ken Demarest, one of the original developers who worked on Wing Commander I on the PC…
… we were getting an exception from our EMM386 memory manager when we exited the game. We’d clear the screen and a single line would print out, something like “EMM386 Memory manager error. Blah blah blah.” We had to ship ASAP. So I hex edited the error in the memory manager itself to read “Thank you for playing Wing Commander!”
via many sources that usually forget to mention the full source:
Thanks [Archive.is] Harvey!
Some more links referenced by the above worth browsing on a day like this:

Since I tend to forget what bits and pieces are needed for TIdHTTPWebBrokerBridge, the below code piece from:
The [WayBack] WebReq.WebRequestHandler Function returns a reference to the global [WayBack] TWebRequestHandler object. This object manages all the Web modules in the application, and creates Web request and response objects when the application receives HTTP request messages: TWebRequestHandler keeps a pool of active Web modules. In response to a request from the application, TWebRequestHandler creates a request object and assigns it to one of the active Web modules.
The code below is the Indy counterpart of hooking up a classic WebSnap WebBroker (you could also hook the Web.WebBroker.Application.WebModuleClass to TMyWebModule instead of the WebRequestHandler.WebModuleClass, as Web.WebBroker.Application.WebModuleClass is a TWebApplication which inherits from TWebRequestHandler).

States via [WayBack] SERVICE_STATUS structure (Windows)
Value Hex Meaning SERVICE_CONTINUE_PENDING 0x00000005 The service continue is pending. SERVICE_PAUSE_PENDING 0x00000006 The service pause is pending. SERVICE_PAUSED 0x00000007 The service is paused. SERVICE_RUNNING 0x00000004 The service is running. SERVICE_START_PENDING 0x00000002 The service is starting. SERVICE_STOP_PENDING 0x00000003 The service is stopping. SERVICE_STOPPED 0x00000001 The service is not running.
It’s complex as a table, so there are two.
Common transitions:
| From state | To state |
|---|---|
| SERVICE_STOPPED | SERVICE_START_PENDING |
| SERVICE_START_PENDING | SERVICE_RUNNING |
| SERVICE_START_PENDING | SERVICE_STOPPED |
| SERVICE_START_PENDING | SERVICE_STOP_PENDING |
| SERVICE_RUNNING | SERVICE_STOPPED |
| SERVICE_RUNNING | SERVICE_STOP_PENDING |
| SERVICE_STOP_PENDING | SERVICE_STOPPED |
Infrequent transitions:
| From state | To state |
|---|---|
| SERVICE_RUNNING | SERVICE_PAUSE_PENDING |
| SERVICE_RUNNING | SERVICE_PAUSED |
| SERVICE_PAUSE_PENDING | SERVICE_PAUSED |
| SERVICE_PAUSE_PENDING | SERVICE_STOP_PENDING |
| SERVICE_PAUSE_PENDING | SERVICE_STOPPED |
| SERVICE_PAUSED | SERVICE_RUNNING |
| SERVICE_PAUSED | SERVICE_CONTINUE_PENDING |
| SERVICE_PAUSED | SERVICE_STOP_PENDING |
| SERVICE_PAUSED | SERVICE_STOPPED |
| SERVICE_CONTINUE_PENDING | SERVICE_RUNNING |
| SERVICE_CONTINUE_PENDING | SERVICE_STOP_PENDING |
| SERVICE_CONTINUE_PENDING | SERVICE_STOPPED |

Office 365 #fail: Not sure yet, but every now and then – without any UI showing – C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\ClickToRun\OfficeClickToRun.exe is using truckloads of CPU while executing an invisible OneDriveSetup.exe both totaling 100% of the full CPU for tens of minutes.
Since it needs to run after each RDP connection, Windows: running a batch file during logon of a single or all users is not enough.
