4 Looks like he took door number 2.

6 Apparently I can't post "whistleblower".

Clearly a derogatory LGBQTy reference.

9 Some really innocuous words/combinations that sometimes don't get through Fred's anti-spam set-up.

10 The drill:

Write your post > select all > copy > post.

Doesn't post? start looking for the obvious issues. Your post is still on your clipboard so you don't need to type it again.

Live > and learn.

11 Dirty trick:

After your post fails to publish, back arrow on you browser and it's probably still in the edit box.

12 That all perhaps sounds good in theory but that isn't reality at all and is a bit absurd to do for every post, Weblog entry, and e-mail in the world. Effective, yes; practical/sane, hardly.

13 Sorry, Clem. I was guarding my work when computers hung up a couple times an hour. CTRL-S is a tic to me.

14 I grew up typing and re-typing stuff on typewriters. When I learned ho to protect my effort on a green screen editing program I never looked back.

15 And, no, I never had to use EMACS. Not sorry about that.

16 Nevermind I'll just post one fraking link

I discovered the hard way that comments here are limited to two links. More than two links triggers Rantburg’s anti-spam protections. Posted articles can have more links, but I’ve gotten lazy over the years and let our readers go to the original article for most of those.

And that back arrow trick has saved the situation for me more often than I can count.

17 /\ Vi, or one of its UNIX variants? That was what I started on back in the day.

18 Used VI a bit. WordPerfect was crushing everything else by the time I came along.

19 Use zeros instead of letter o in any questionable words when possible. Whistlebl0wer.

20 I tried the back button once before but it did not work. I don't know if it made a difference being on a mobile device versus a desktop, though.

But, yes, that can work.

21 Back button doesn't preserve your comment on Android phones.
