Fake, there’s no way the sysadmin wouldn’t throw the HR rep who signed the policy under the bus (without some CYA documentation prior).

Oh, didn’t the domain somesoftwarecorp.com give it away?

You don’t know Some Software Corp and their world famous website somesoftwarecorp.com?

mundane , in One command to rule them all

That is stupid. Those commands are for different use cases.

Even if this is a joke, this is a great example of something that happens all the time: people avoiding responsibility by blaming some chunk of software. The electronic equivalent of “No, sir! I didn’t kill that person. The butter knife did it!”

Use extreme caution ordering from this link. The account recommending it is sketchy.

The domain of the website itself was registered just over a year ago.

If you look at the descriptions and reviews they all are obviously fake.

The address on the contact us page is for a printing company, which suggests this site itself is likely dropshipping (this isn’t inherently wrong).

You’ll probably receive your order, but you’re trusting your info to an a website that is sketchy at best, and isn’t paying the original artist.

TheWinged7 ,

I guess I get why my account seems sketchy, I generally lurk and upvote only and this has been my first comment ^^;

I agree with the website probablybeing a dropshipping company, but it’s the only place that the image shows up in a reverse image search other than this post.

I can’t even find the source image anywhere, just similar versions with different cats and computers

Thanks for the well reasoned reply. Your original comment and no history reminded me of similar stuff on Reddit lol.

Your reply inspired me to try and find it as well.

I managed to find it in poster form, from what may possibly be the original artist: www.redbubble.com/i/…/113977661.UZX4H

I also managed to find dozens of versions of it as tshirts using the search term "i are programmer beep boop cat* on Google images.

Install Task Manager Manager

42Firehawk , in OK, now what?

Power supply… You’re next option is to remove the power supply from the computer… With a chainsaw.

I may be taking slightly drastic action.

Norgur ,

Nah, mate. That won't do it. You need to drive a truck into the nearest transformer station.

muddybulldog , in OK, now what?

Somebody needs to find whoever was responsible for the original NT task manager and learn a thing or two. That thing was bulletproof. I had servers over the years that were so broken nothing else would run but you hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and tada!

ytrav ,

for the love of god, for the past 27 years it’s been ctrl-shift-esc (since like NT 4.0), while ctrl-alt-del opens up the security menu thing. I can’t believe I’m saying this…

i thought programmers liked doing things faster

muddybulldog ,

CTRL+SHIFT+ESC is simply a keyboard shortcut and is useless on a locked up system, it dies with the shell. CTRL+ALT+DEL throws a hardware interrupt, which contributed to the aforementioned bulletproof nature.

sefikkaan , in OK, now what?

Same feeling of an extinguisher catching fire

redcalcium , in OK, now what?

There is a reason why the task manager was largely unchanged until windows 11.

Zorque ,

I dunno, the Win10 version seems pretty neutered compared to previous versions.
