I remember the first time I tried making a website the path I used for all my assets were my local folder locations. It never occurred to me that nobody else could see what I had on my C drive.

Better this than not having some kind of restriction so everyone can see your entire C drive

That moment when \\AssetNo-SerialNo\C$ lands you inside someone else's C drive 😳

Don't worry. I work in a bank. We employ very expensive IT consultants. After the initial PPT that sold the project to our management, all they do is Word documents ("concepts"), mostly copy paste from other documentation. And all the links are file://C:/User/Joe/Temp/MuFiles/...

Creed? Is that you?

What the hell? This guy just copied my website!

I think a lot of us have been there before, it's part of the learning process. Jimmy will find his way.

That’s weird it kinda looks a bit like my website!??

Would be great if he got trolled all the way to having it on his business cards and on a billboard.

It looks really good, just like one I set up recently myself...

[–] lugal@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sure you did it yourself? Or did you just steal it from poor Jimmy? At least admit it

[–] aussiematt@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Jimmy clearly ripped off my website. His website even has my name in the contact information at the bottom! The gall of some people...

[–] lugal@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

Sure it's your name or did you even steal his identity? I'm just asking questions, not implying anything.
