My intolerance....Sometimes i need to take a deep breath, relax and simply accept that people are stupid.
Thanks for explaining "plethora".
It means a lot.
@floydbloke my first job in IT was Manager of a first level support team, that taught me great tolerance.

Withe the team, or the customers, or both? :-)
People who don't seem to understand how daylight savings work. You know the ones - "6pm is really 7pm" - and think that somehow magically changes when things should happen. While there are some instances where it makes a difference (I can understand how a cow that needs milking doesn't read a clock), when it comes to feeding our (human) kids, we don't need to feed them an hour earlier. If they normally have 4 hours between breakfast and lunch, then that doesn't change simply because the clocks went back.
It's not rocket surgery, people!

To steal a recent post from The Register's forums:
Perhaps one of those people who thinks that GMT just means "UK time", and is unaware that Daylight Saving time means that the UK is on GMT+1 in the summer? I get USAnians like that who schedule meetings for "3pm GMT", then show up at 3pm BST and complain that no-one else is there.
When a friend buys a laptop from the high-street with an AMD A6 and 5400rpm HDD and then asks you to set it up.
Doing the initial OS updates is absolutely glacial.

And the parallel to this one is the friend who buys a piece of tech (often a PC/laptop/tablet) without talking to you first to get advice, and ends up buying a lemon, then complaining when said lemon isn't performing like your carefully selected and curated hardware.
Geektastic:no - I think it just provided the spores, didn't it? Or was that Lieutenant Stammerer?paulchinnz:
Meet the tardigrade - perhaps not quite a germ, but there're bugs that tolerate >100 deg C ...
I thought that powered the Spore Drive on the USS Discovery...?

Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.
Useless videos on Stuff that offer nothing more than a slide show of a couple of photos that could have better been presented in static form.

No, the tardigrade in the series is the "driver" - it knows the map around that area.
