Hard to know when that is, though...

It sure is
Despite having used computers my whole life, I just noticed that you can't name a file "con" in Windows 10
Yes, I know it is exciting, but now you know it as well
I knew that, there are a few other names you can't use for filenames, NUL is one, PRN is another, i can't remember the rest.
It all had to do with device names, CON is the console, PRN is the printer (oh yes, just remembered LPT), I haven't got a clue what NUL is

I know there are names you can't use, but I often create files with names where I just randomly type something, just crazy that "con" hasn't been one of them
Sticking to clothing....yeah, that happens in hot weather.
It's a reserved file type. NUL is a short form of Null (just adhering to the normal three character file extension) and is used where a write procedure needs to be performed but there is no need to actually write.
So as the program writes to the NUL file, the contents are simply discarded and it remains empty (NULL).
It is not something I see, really, but some programs would create them rather than error in a bug situation.

I don't know if you can still do it but to make file names on older Microsoft os difficult (or impossible) to load for someone who doesn't know the trick. Press and hold alt, type 255, release alt then type the file name.
Not living? Are you sure? I'd suggest you don't give them up.
So you fell for that Thanks for my 50% of the fee you paid.
You're rude if you don't allow others to speak on your behalf.

You know, I was about to apologize to you. I was at work and just got home. That post I was responding to read as being rude, and with our history, it's easy for me to read it that way, so I responded in what I thought was a similar tone. But now I'm really not in a good mood after the mess I just came home to (something really expensive was broken and I had to throw it away). So I'm just going to leave it here.

It's something that we all do. Any time there's a discussion, we start expounding on what we think about something; what we do in a certain situation; what we believe about the universe in general or what we believe about specifics. Ultimately, we all share the same viewpoint, worldview and attitude. If you say anything we can assume, correctly, that we concur with us. Not them.
