Helsing?r ( Elsinore ), so fairly close but all this Neowin meet-up isn't my thing, last time I got AIDS.

Oh and I might try the cheese tomorrow, throw it on a pan and give it a whirl - It's going to be well disgusting >.>

Sethos, your call! If you're still alive after the fish ######, try this! :rofl:

Some people like to eat really old camembert, but from 03? But hey, give it a try :laugh:

Prrobably body parts from the last murder ;)

Yes! And the body parts, too! :rofl:

Only if you're eating 10 year old food.

Bck to topic - Sethos's last post is a while a go already, perhaps the fish ###### are dancing rumba in his stomach now :shifty:

typo? :rofl:

Eating expired food, i mean radically expired food is one thing, and quite cool, but only if youre sufficiently pi$$ed

Generally you'll live on to tell the tale

Whats highly NOT recommended is the practice of gobbling expired medication, and specifically someone else's

My mum is notorious for not throwing out expired medicines, so i have to do a rummage around once in a while to save her from herself.

One day while i was performing this valuable service i came across a half used packet of a medicine i wont name here, about 3 years out of date, and thought "i know what that does, its not too dangerous, but does it improve with age?"

Picked a quite night to fully appreciate the expected effects, it all went quite well until i saw Eddie Van Halen riding down the road outside my window on a unicorn....

Disclaimer: I once again need to advise that it is non-advisable to eat expired medicines of ANY sort, no matter what. Side effects can include death or hallucinations of members of rock bands on steeds of many varieties. At very worst you may experience visions of spandex and leather clad hair band front men, such as Jani Lane from Warrant. This is known as a bogus high.

The only expired food I've ever eaten was in the military. In the old days the field ration was called "D?d mann p? boks" or "dead man in a box". (canned food) It was a challenge from our lieutenant. It tasted pretty good. I think it was just a few years off the date. Anyways, canned food is suppose to be everlasting.

I can relate, in the aussie miltary , at least when i was in there 20 years ago, everything seemed like it was from WWII. Nothing as dire as dairy spread in a tube that is so yellow it burns your eyes, stuff was definitely chemically coloured. Then there was the biscuits with the consistency of concrete.

The only edible thing ever found were the tubes of sweetened condensed milk, were were ###### for that stuff, there was almost a blackmarket for it.

We would come back from the field and unload our garbage, which always consisted of about 40 percent of what soldiers just werent prepared to eat in any situation from their ration packs. Did an exercise or two with the americans and you had bugger all chance of swapping anything in your ration pack for even the lowliest item in theirs!

Please never mention ration pack chocolate circa 1980's, my bowels still have distinct memories of that stuff

Back on the main topic: fish ######:

My vote is they will do him in, ive had some that were only month and a half over date and they were rancid and left me ill for days.

Dont trust the golden crumb covering, sure it looks inviting, but it is dark master, for it hides the slimy waxy horror beneath.

Never mess with overdate fish or chicken

This is a cautionary warning

Fell free to ignore it, i need a laugh

Yes, canned food can indeed be eaten for a very long time since it's sealed airtight.

This is not true for pizza, and clearly less for fish ###### which are even much more perishable.

how is this thread on page 25?

Presumably because you have your posts per page set at 15. Many people will see a different numbers of pages depending on their view setting. As to why there are 375/376 posts well... consider it a social experiment. It's like watching NASCAR, you don't necessarily watch to see who comes first.

Anyway, it's old now. It was more fun when the posts were coming in a dozen at a time.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By zikalify · Posted

      Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
    • Microsoft: Windows 11 could finally solve a major issue across AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft: Windows 11 could finally solve a major issue across AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs by Sayan Sen While Microsoft has been trying to improve it, Windows 11 is definitely not flawless, as even today some issues are taking a year to publicly acknowledge. However, one area of trouble that may finally see much better results soon is graphics driver crashes. Work on graphics driver timeouts, also called Timeout and Detection Recovery (TDR), is not new as the latest WDDM 3.2 also has specific improvements regarding it. Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) version 3.2 is supported on Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2. However, with the upcoming version 26H2, TDR crash diagnosis could go to the next level as Microsoft is introducing a new DirectX 12 API feature called "DirectX Dump Files". Similar to how system memory dump files work when a system crashes or freezes or encounters any such major issue, DirectX Dump Files (DDF) will essentially record a snapshot of the GPU execution right at the moment a graphics-related crash or hang or freeze occurs, so that developers can better understand and diagnoze these TDR and timeout detection errors. The dump will be available as a .dxdmp file for analysis and it will be a comprehensive dump file generated with detailed insights about the hardware, drivers, Windows, as well as the affected application. This should be another welcome change in this department. Earlier at GDC 2026, when the technology was first debuted, Microsoft had shared more details regarding it. The company had explained how DDF is designed to gather data from every layer of the graphics stack into a single file, eliminating the need for developers to manually correlate logs from multiple tools. As mentioned above, the dump can contain a lot of useful details like GPU hardware state information such as register values, shader program counters, page fault virtual addresses, shader memory data, and command buffers. Alongside that, it also captures DirectX runtime and kernel information, including D3D objects, pipeline state objects, device error data, adapter details, and CPU call stacks. Microsoft says the feature has been built around two primary use cases: retail device removals and local device removals. The former allows developers to collect crash information from end users' systems in the field, while the latter helps QA teams and developers investigate issues on test machines. Developers will also be able to include up to 2 MB of custom application data through new D3D12 APIs, providing additional context for troubleshooting. In addition, Microsoft is introducing three dump collection modes ranging from zero-overhead capture, which has no runtime performance impact on supported hardware, to higher-detail modes that collect more vendor-specific debugging data. On compatible Tier 2 hardware, zero-overhead dumps will be enabled by default, meaning developers may begin receiving useful crash diagnostics without making any code changes. The table below explains the three tiers: Tier Description NO_OVERHEAD Enables crash capture with no runtime cost and is suitable for broad deployment MEDIUM_OVERHEAD Provides a balance, capturing additional diagnostic data with moderate impact HIGH_OVERHEAD Collects the most detailed GPU and driver state available, enabling deeper investigation at the cost of higher runtime overhead In terms of availability, the company expects broader release to be around the fall of 2026, which should be right around the time when Windows 11 version 26H2 lands. Right now, DirectX Dump Files are available as a preview and currently, only AMD has the compatible AgilitySDK Developer Preview driver version 26.10.07.02. You can find the official announcement post here on Microsoft's website.
